Destroyed outside, gold and jade inside

Chapter 221
Fang Yan got up and came to Shen Xiniang's side. There were about twenty pills lying quietly in the wooden box. The purple shimmer of light flowing on the round pills made people feel happy.

He raised his hand to pick up the elixir, put it on the tip of his nose and sniffed it lightly. It had a faint smell of gold and stone, but there was also a fresh medicinal fragrance that lingered.

"Shouldn't the elixir have a bitter taste of gold and stone?" Fang Yan asked in a low voice, "And this elixir doesn't seem to be harmful to the body?"

Shen Xinniang curled her lips and nodded, "This elixir will definitely win Yu Tai's trust, let him take it with confidence."

Fang Yan looked at the elixir in his hand in surprise, and looked up at Shen Xinniang, with a hint of admiration, "I remember you used to disdain the outer elixir, why do you seem to be quite good at it now? "

Shen Xinniang lowered her eyes, "The situation is pressing. If it can save people, why not do something that you would have disdained?"

Fang Yan nodded, and the maid outside restrained her yawn and said, "My lord, my concubine, it's already three quarters, let's use some things, it's time for my lord to go to court."

"You guarded me all night." Shen Xinniang looked up at Fang Yan and said.

Fang Yan smiled lightly and rubbed her hair, "You are the one who has worked hard. I will guard you, but I can't help you."

Shen Xinniang lowered her eyes and smiled lightly, "It's best to have company."

The two of them had some breakfast together.

Fang Yan went to court, Shen Xinniang quickly took a bath and changed clothes, came to the guest room courtyard, and found Ziyang Zhenren and Huang Shuaiyin.

The two were meditating cross-legged under the century-old locust tree in the courtyard, letting out the old and bringing in the new.Shen Xinniang stood quietly and didn't disturb her. After the two of them had finished their journey, they opened their eyes refreshed and saw her before getting up and saluting.

"Princess wakes up so early?" Master Ziyang said with a smile, "I'm afraid you were quite busy last night, right?"

Shen Xinniang sent the wooden box forward.

Master Ziyang's expression was slightly astonished. He took the wooden box with both hands and hesitated for a moment before opening it. Seeing the quantity and quality of the pills inside, he couldn't help but be amazed. He looked at Shen Xinniang with even more surprise and eagerness, "This is a lady. Refined yesterday?"

Shen Xinniang shook her head, "There will be more alchemy this morning."

Master Ziyang couldn't help giving a thumbs up, "The lady is persistent and patient, really admirable."

Huang Shuaiyin also took a step forward, staring at the wooden box in the master's hand, seeing the elixir, he couldn't help but gasped, "Unexpectedly, she really made so many elixir? And the quality of this elixir, it seems, is better than Zhang Mingzhi's." The elixir they offered to Uncle Yu is much better!"

Master Ziyang nodded slightly.

However, Shen Xinniang's face was very calm, neither ecstatic nor pretending to be modest, "You can take this elixir home and offer it directly to Uncle Yu Guo, or give it to Yu Tai through Zhang Ming's hand, it's up to you. "

Huang Shuaiyin was very surprised when he heard the words, and stared at Shen Xinniang, "Princess, tell me, what are you talking about? Who is it for?"

Master Ziyang raised his hand and knocked him on the head, "Is your brain not good, and your ears not working well?"

"Yu Tai? Uncle Yu? Give it to him?" Huang Shuaiyin still had an unbelievable expression on his face, "Could it be that the princess has stayed up all night and lost her mind?"

"Let's talk in the room, Mrs. Shen." Master Ziyang stretched out his hand to invite.

The three entered the guest room one after another.

Huang Shuaiyin's eyes still fell on the box of mellow pills full of light and flowing in a daze. Such fine pills, dedicated to Uncle Yu Guo?Isn't this reckless?The hatred between Uncle Yu and Princess Qi is probably irreconcilable, right?Is the princess really confused?Or in order to save those innocent little ladies, even the hatred must be put aside?

"What's the mystery in this elixir?" Master Ziyang asked in a low voice, "Pindao took that pill yesterday, studied it carefully, and found nothing wrong with it. A high-grade elixir of yang."

Shen Xinniang nodded, but before she could make a sound, Master Ziyang spoke again.

"I think Mrs. Shen is also very clear that if there is a problem with the pill, Yu Tai will definitely not take it. He is cautious in the first place, and there are many people around him who know about outer pills."

"Just knowing this, there is nothing wrong with this pill." Shen Xinniang said slowly.

"No problem? Is the princess still going to use it for him? Still staying up all night refining, really... really confused!" Huang Shuaiyin was a little impatient.

Master Ziyang sighed softly and shook his head.

Shen Xinniang didn't take it seriously, and said softly: "If Taoist Huang uses this elixir, the non-healing wounds on his right arm and chest will heal within two days."

Huang Shuaiyin's eyes widened when he heard the words, and he reached out to take a pill to use.

Shen Xinniang shook her head, and raised her hand to cover the wooden box.

"Use it for Uncle Yu, but not me?" Huang Shuaiyin questioned with staring eyes.

"It's not that I won't use it for you, but it's that I can't use it for you now." Shen Xinniang said, "The elixir that Yu Tai got, will definitely find someone to test it before using it?"

Master Ziyang had a clear expression on his face, "No wonder Mrs. Shen told him yesterday that this medicine cannot be given to him."

Huang Shuaiyin still didn't understand, "Can I use it, or can't I use it?"

Shen Xinniang nodded, "Yes, but not now."

Huang Shuaiyin frowned, and Master Ziyang pursed his lips and smiled lightly.

"You want to go back to Yu Tai's mansion and save those innocent little ladies. It seems impossible not to make meritorious deeds, but you failed to kill Guo Taishou. How can Zhang Mingzhi and Yu Tai feel relieved of you? Only this elixir." Shen Xinniang pushed the wooden box towards him.

"It turns out that the princess is thinking about me..." Huang Shuaiyin felt a little ashamed on his face. He thought of him carefully, and he said just now that he was confused.

Shen Xinniang said seriously in a low voice: "Just remember, you must never take too much of this elixir, one pill or two pills is beneficial and harmless, if you use too much..."

She withdrew her hand, stood up straight, her eyes were deep, but she didn't say the rest.

Back when she pawned the jade bracelet at the Qin Family Villa, she only dropped a drop of black spring water in the tea bowl, and Section Master Zhao stiffened, unable to move or speak.Among so many elixirs, black spring water is the essence condensed.Compared with the tea in the beginning, it is even worse.

It's just that the white spring water has neutralized its effect, and if you take it in small amounts, you won't see its effect.

Huang Shuaiyin opened his mouth when he heard the words, and when he looked at the elixir glowing with purple light, his eyes became a little complicated.

"Master, can you see the reason?" He asked sideways.

Master Ziyang shook his head, "I see that the elixir is a high-grade medicine that can help you practice and generate yang, but Mrs. Shen said that you should not take too much, so it must be so. Also, I am not your master!"

Huang Shuaiyin directly chose to ignore the last sentence, "If Master doesn't see anything wrong, then Zhang Mingzhi and the others certainly won't be able to notice it either."

He smiled, and eagerly took the box into his arms.As if he couldn't wait, he was going back to Yu Tai's mansion now, so as to save those little ladies and offer this strange medicine.

"No hurry." Shen Xinniang stopped him, "Zhang Mingzhi has been with you day and night for so long, if you lie to him, he will definitely see it through."

Huang Shuaiyin froze when he heard the words, and nodded in embarrassment, "This..."

"So, you don't have to lie to him." Shen Xinniang said, "When the truth is false, the false is also true."

Hearing this, Huang Shuaiyin scratched the back of his head with a puzzled expression on his face.

The three of them closed the door to discuss it, and asked Huang Shuaiyin to rehearse it twice before it was considered appropriate.

However, Shen Xinniang still didn't let him rush back during the day, but let him disguise himself during the day, quietly leave the city, watch outside until the night, and then rush back at night.

Master Ziyang also quietly returned to the Xuanyu Temple, and everything was proceeding quietly according to the plan.

Shen Xinniang tried her best to save those innocent ladies and plot against Uncle Yu.But she didn't want to, someone was plotting against her.

"Did you fall asleep?" Queen Mother Yu asked with a sneer.

The female officer nodded again and again, "My lord looks very tired these few days. He was already a little mentally weak, and he burned the tranquilizing incense prepared by Doctor Ma Tai early in the morning, and now he has fallen into a deep sleep."

Mrs. Yu nodded happily, "Things are done well, and the manpower is ready?"

The female officer quickly bowed and nodded again, "Everything is fine."

Yu Shi chuckled and stood up, "She thought that after she became a princess, King Qi would be completely hers? Aren't they sincere and can't tolerate others? I want to see, after today, their relationship can still be good." Can't it be like before? Can there be no rift between them?"

The female officer bowed and said, "The Empress Dowager will surely fulfill her wish!"

With a sneer on Yu's alluring face, she got up and walked out of the hall.

There are quite a few palace people guarding outside the Qinzheng Hall, but inside the Qinzheng Hall is very quiet.Everyone knows that Prince Qi is tired recently.Shengshang is too young, and reviewing memorials is also a hard and exhausting job. Now it is all on the shoulders of King Qi. When encountering cabinet ministers who have different political opinions, how to balance it is exhausting.

King Qi seldom fell asleep in the midst of being busy, and he must be extremely tired if he slept so deeply today.No one dared to come forward to disturb, and the people who were originally serving in the palace all retreated outside the palace, so that Prince Qi could rest in peace.

When the palace people saw the empress dowager approaching, they immediately wanted to go in and wake up Prince Qi, but the empress dowager seemed to have been prepared, and immediately sent someone to stop him.

"When you see Ai's family, why are you so busy going inside instead of saluting?" The Empress Dowager stepped forward, and Yu asked with a sneer with downcast eyes.

"Report to the Empress Dowager, the prince is working in the palace, and the empress is here, so I should report to the prince." The palace man saluted and replied.

"It's okay," Mrs. Yu waved her hand, "The king of Qi is working hard for the emperor and the affairs of the state. I'm sorry for my family but passing by here. Come and visit me for a while, and then report to him. Wouldn't it delay King Qi's business?"

The guards outside Qinzheng Hall bowed their heads and dared not answer. If they didn't want to disturb, what would a queen dowager come to Qinzheng Hall for?Wherever you go, you won't pass by here, right?Could it be that he heard that the prince fell asleep and came here to grab the bag on purpose?

The palace servants lowered their eyes and thought about countermeasures, but Mrs. Yu had already got out of the car and walked towards the palace.

The palace servants immediately moved and bowed to block the door of the main hall, "Empress Dowager, the prince is busy with government affairs, so you can't go in."

"Why can't Ai's family come in?" Yu Shi asked coldly, "Is it King Qi who won't let Ai's house in, or you, a bold servant, who won't let Ai's house in?"
