After he left, Li Shimin came to Yuan Tiangang, looked at the porcelain bottle in his hand, and fell into deep thought.
He suddenly felt guilty for Yuan Tiangang, because he had already budgeted for the elixir, and as long as it was completed, no matter how many pills he had, he would let Yuan Tiangang take it.
There are many loyal ministers, but those who are loyal to Yuan Tiangang, who has both strength and wisdom, and can also do divination, are rare.
In addition, Li Shimin doesn't really want to live forever now.
Because the eldest grandson Wugou has been waiting for him below for ten years. Even if he is dead now, he has almost finished arranging all the things that should be arranged.
At first, he wanted the elixir of immortality because he didn't know when the Tang Dynasty would be prosperous. Now that his wish has been achieved, it doesn't matter anymore.
If he uses this elixir now and still practices Yin Xie Gong, or abandons his cultivation and ruins his reputation for the rest of his life, then he would rather not do it!
....
The sky was getting dark, and Li Shimin had been beside Yuan Tiangang, paying attention to his changes.
Although there are still cracks on the face, they have not expanded. If you look closely, it looks like it was scratched by a sharp object.
"Well..."
A groan of pain caught Li Shimin's attention. He quickly stepped forward and asked, "How are you doing? How do you feel now? Are you okay?"
After Yuan Tiangang got up, he looked around, then got out of bed and knelt on one knee in front of Li Shimin.
"minister..."
Li Shimin waved his hand: "You did not fail. The longevity elixir was indeed successful, but it is not suitable for people who practice martial arts."
Yuan Tiangang touched his cheek, his expression suddenly became a little lonely.
"In the final analysis, I still failed. I beg your Majesty to convict you!"
"Guilty? What are you guilty of? You are devoted to me. If I still blame you, how are you different from a foolish king? Do you want me to be a foolish king?"
Yuan Tiangang shook his head and did not reply.
Li Shimin went to the side room and took a bronze mirror and placed it in front of Yuan Tiangang: "Look, although your appearance has changed slightly, you look much younger. Shouldn't you be happy?"
Yuan Tiangang said calmly: "Your Majesty, don't make fun of me. It's just a skin. I don't care. Now I have thought of the reason. As long as you give me some time, you will definitely..."
"Forget it." Li Shimin interrupted Yuan Tiangang.
"I already knew the reason when you were unconscious. Please allow me to consider whether to take this pill. You should get up first."
After the words fell, Li Shimin looked at Yuan Tiangang who didn't move at all, frowned slightly and said, "Why don't you get up?"
Yuan Tiangang raised his head and said in a serious tone: "As a national master, I control the divine and mystical arts of the Tang Dynasty, predict the fortune of the Tang Dynasty, and create a prosperous age for Your Majesty. I will not hesitate even to the death."
"But I am guilty of this matter and almost harmed Your Majesty. I am no longer worthy of being an official in the court. I sincerely request Your Majesty to remove me from the post of National Advisor!"
Li Shimin glanced at him lightly and reached out to help him up, but Yuan Tiangang, who had always obeyed Li Shimin, did not get up this time.
"I am no longer qualified to be a national advisor. I still hope that your majesty will do it accurately!"
"You...why are you so stubborn!"
Seeing that Yuan Tiangang didn't reply, Li Shimin really felt that he had nowhere to vent his anger, and in the end he could only sigh.
"If you resign as a national advisor, as you promised me before..."
"I, you must fulfill your promise! As long as I live, I will do my best!"
Li Shimin nodded: "Well, since you insist on doing this, I will help you, but your talents cannot be wasted. Without the position of national teacher, you can still concentrate on controlling bad people."
"I have already thought about it. Only I and my heirs can know your identity. Even if you leave the court, you will still be my subject!"
Yuan Tiangang nodded: "Chen, I understand!"
"By the way, I have to tell you one more thing. Li Yunxiao went to the far north to find medicine for you. He asked me to tell you not to worry about him."
"What!? When did you leave!" Yuan Tiangang ignored the question of medicine.
Li Shimin replied: "About eight hours ago!"
"Excuse me, please leave!" Yuan Tiangang stood up and was about to leave.
"Forget it, you can't catch up with him anymore. I don't think he is a short-lived person. If you and I go to the far north and stagger each other, and he comes back, what will I say? I promised him that I will take good care of him. Yours, do you want me to break my promise?"
Yuan Tiangang stopped his steps, turned around and saluted: "I don't dare."
Li Shimin stepped forward and patted Yuan Tiangang's shoulder: "Okay, you go back and have a good rest. If anything happens, I will contact you."
Yuan Tiangang hesitated for a moment and nodded: "Yes! Your Majesty!"
Seeing Yuan Tiangang stand up and leave, Li Shimin's face instantly turned pale, he put his hand on his chest and coughed violently.
....
After returning to his residence less than half an hour later, Yuan Tiangang shouted as soon as he came back.
"Brother Yunxiao?"
"Brother Li?"
When no one agreed, he went to Li Yunxiao's room again. Looking at the messy clothes and some spare ingredients in the kitchen, he gave a helpless smile.
"Brother Yunxiao, Brother Yunxiao, it's a shame that I boasted that the elixir I refined was absolutely fine. It turns out that you warned me a long time ago, but why don't you tell me directly..."
While helping Li Yunxiao pack his clothes, a letter suddenly fell out.
【Li Yunxiao stays】
Yuan Tiangang was slightly stunned and opened the envelope.
[When you see this letter, it proves that you have seen this letter. 】
Yuan Tiangang was startled for a moment, isn't this nonsense?
[Okay, let’s not talk nonsense. Who told you not to listen to me in the first place? You must still be blaming me behind my back for not speaking out, right? With your character, would you recognize it if I told you? Will you listen to me? 】
[Just wait for me at home and I will definitely find a solution! Remember not to use yin to replenish yang, my diaphragm should be used! 】
Yuan Tiangang folded the envelope and put it in his lapel.
"It's just a bone-gnawing pain that burns the skin. How could I practice the evil method of extracting yin and replenishing yang?"
Yuan Tiangang looked disdainful and did not take these words seriously.
More than ten days later, Li Chunfeng returned. When he saw Yuan Tiangang's appearance, he was startled for a moment, then smiled lightly and came to sit opposite him in the pavilion.
"It's better now. With the Immortality Pill in hand, you can finally get in touch with things a hundred years from now as you wish."
Yuan Tiangang said calmly: "Is it true... maybe."
A flash of thought flashed in Li Chunfeng's eyes. In his heart, anyone could live forever, only Yuan Tiangang and Li Yunxiao could live forever. He had unspeakable words but could not speak them.
He was also involved in the longevity pill. He had no choice but to do so. After all, he had the emperor's order, so how could he not follow it.
But at first, he never thought that Yuan Tiangang would take the Immortality Pill. As for now, if he ate it... then just take it.
"How do you feel now? Are you still feeling uncomfortable?"
"The pain is small and I can bear it, but my sense of taste seems to have weakened a lot. Everything I eat... feels bitter."
Li Chunfeng shook his head: "You...Okay, where is Brother Yunxiao, are you studying elixirs with His Majesty?"
Yuan Tiangang shook his head, looked towards the north, and said in a deep tone: "Brother Yunxiao went to seek Tianshan Snow Lotus for me."
Li Chunfeng only thought for a moment and understood.
"What? Pills are related to yin and yang?"
"That's right."
"I see..." Upon hearing this, Li Chunfeng's mouth curved, as if he had expected it.
With that said, Li Chunfeng took out two things from his arms and handed them to Yuan Tiangang.
"Take it, it's for you two, you can keep it for him first."
Yuan Tiangang reached out and took it, and was stunned.
"What do you mean..."
Li Chunfeng handed over two little bastards...
