Everyone was a little curious, wondering what Liu Mang would use a mouse for.
Soon a fat mouse was tied to the plywood by Liu Mang.
"Do you think this Five Stone Powder is a panacea?"
"Of course! We have all heard from the Central Plains nobles that they all take this substance!"
Liu Mang then laughed jokingly: "In this case, it is good for people, so it should also be a great tonic for mice."
The nobles seemed to have realized something, and they saw Liu Mang scattering the five stones and pouring them into the mouse's mouth.
After a while, the mouse's whole body was seen to be limp and ecstatic, much like a person taking Five Stone Powder.
"Prodigal son! What a prodigal son! All these elixirs were fed to rats!"
"Alas! Today we finally saw the reputation of the prince as a prodigal!"
"Poor those five-stone pieces, they cost more than a million!"
The nobles looked at Liu Mang with helpless eyes, as if the other party was squandering natural resources.
"Appropriate dosage of the drug seems to be able to make mice feel ecstatic."
"What if we increase the dose again?"
"Everyone, please take your time and watch."
Liu Mang poured the five-stone powder into the mouse's mouth again. Within a moment, the mouse kicked off its legs and died.
This frightened everyone. The person who sold them Five Stone Powder told them that taking this product would make them feel refreshed, but he never said it could eat people!
"Please bring me the silver needle!"
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
Nowadays, mice can be eaten to death, let alone the delicate and aristocratic families.
Liu Mang pierced the mouse's neck with a silver needle. After pulling it out, the silver needle gradually turned black.
Everyone was shocked. They already understood that this Five Stone Powder was not a panacea at all, but a poison.
"It's funny to say that the death of Guo Jia, Cao Cao's military advisor, was also related to taking Five Stone Powder."
"Guo Fengxiao is a divine strategist, and he can still decide Liaodong with his final plan."
"I just don't know if you have Guo Jia's ability to arrange your posthumous affairs before you die."
After that, Liu Mang threw down the silver needle and left with Pang Tong and others.
The scholars were left looking at each other in shock. Since they already knew that taking Wushi Powder was equivalent to chronic suicide, they naturally would not be stupid enough to buy it again.
"Your Majesty, it's me who ruined your mood!"
"Sir, what are you talking about? From my point of view, you deliberately led me here to let me expose Wu Shisan."
Liu Mang looked at Pang Tong with a smile. As a Jingzhou rich man, Pang Tong must have received the news a long time ago.
He didn't know what Wu Shi San was, so he could only ask Liu Mang to identify it in this way.
"The Crown Prince Mingjian!"
"Sir, it's a good thing you discovered it early this time, otherwise the Five Stone Powder would have been abused and the consequences would have been disastrous!"
Liu Mang issued an order to severely crack down on merchants selling Wu Shi Powder. He would never allow such poisons to flow into the market and harm the people.
As Liu Mang said, if you become addicted to Wu Shi Powder, a wealthy family will lose a life, while ordinary people will be ruined.
"Cao Pi really likes to do little tricks. He is no worse than his father Cao Cao."
"Sir, we must quickly prepare our armaments and point our swords at Jingxiang!"
Pang Tong nodded, this year will be Liu Bei's best opportunity to attack Chang'an and regain Jingzhou!
Now Cao Pi and Sun Quan are both short of food and are simply not able to initiate a war.
"Don't worry, Your Majesty, our army will definitely be able to send troops in one month!"
…
Xuchang.
Cao Pi had lost all his patience. Who knew that Liu Xie would now become a stone in the latrine - smelly and hard.
No matter who he sent to intercede, Liu Xie would never give in.
Even if he was cut off from food and water, Liu Xieyi would not compromise.
Cao Pi finally had to give in. He was afraid of starving Liu Xie to death and leaving him with a bad reputation for mistreating the emperor.
Fortunately, Liu Xie ate when he was given food and drank when he was given water.
In addition, Queen Cao couldn't bear to see her husband suffer, so she secretly sent meals to Liu Xie, and Cao Pi turned a blind eye.
"King Wei, even if the puppet doesn't agree, as long as you tell the world that this person has surrendered to you, won't everything be solved?"
Sima Yi smiled and made a move for Cao Pi.
Cao Pi then thought about it, anyway, now that Liu Xie was imprisoned by him, there was no possibility of escaping.
What does it matter whether he gives in or not, whether he agrees or not?
"Zhongda's words awakened the dreamer!"
In order to ensure the truth of the matter, Cao Pi even reported that he would not abdicate three times. In the end, all civil and military officials forced him to death before he agreed to Liu Xie's abdication.
All the people in the Central Plains suddenly did not know whether it was true or false.
Why is it that less than half a month has passed and the emperor's surname is Cao instead of Liu?
"Your Majesty, please go and thank heaven and earth!"
Cao Pi suddenly realized that he was now the emperor of the Wei Dynasty, not the king of Wei of the Han Dynasty.
After hearing this, Cao Pi bowed down to thank heaven and earth.
Suddenly, a strange wind blew up in front of the altar, flying sand and rocks as fast as a shower. The other side disappeared, and all the lights and candles on the altar were blown out!
Cao Pi was shocked on the spot and fell on the altar. The officials rescued him and got off the altar, and he woke up after a while.
Ji Ping held back his nausea and wanted to stab Cao Pi in the neck with a needle and send him to see his father Cao Cao!
"Your Majesty, your Majesty has only a minor illness, so he shouldn't need acupuncture, right?"
Jia Xu continued to sneer, and Ji Ping was shocked. Could it be that he had murderous intentions just now and was discovered by this person?
"Your Majesty? I, Ji Ping, only recognize one Your Majesty in my heart!"
"As an imperial doctor of the Han family, how can Ji Ping recognize a traitor as his king again?"
"You have been living off the wealth of the Han Dynasty for generations, but you behave like traitors and traitors! As a doctor, I can't cure you and others who have a bad heart and a dog's lungs!"
Ji Ping cursed loudly and stabbed Cao Pi with the golden needle in his hand.
Jia Xu was slow to stop him, and only half of the golden needle penetrated Cao Pi's neck.
"Here comes someone! Kill this person quickly!"
Xu Chu swung his sword and cut off Ji Ping's limbs. Blood flowed all over the altar for a while!
"I heard that if you sacrifice the blood of loyal ministers to heaven, you will definitely receive blessings from heaven!"
"I think the imperial doctor is a loyal minister of the Han Dynasty, so I will use your blood to make the Wei Dynasty smooth and the country peaceful and the people safe."
Sima Yi stepped on Ji Ping's chest and allowed him to bleed.
"Haha... the traitors and thieves... everyone can find them and punish them!"
Ji Ping knew that he was about to die soon, but the needle could not be completely absorbed, otherwise Cao Pi would die on the spot!
"Cao Pi... you will die before you are forty years old..."
"Old thief Sima... your descendants will definitely kill each other!"
Ji Ping's eyes were in a trance, "I... I am worthy of the Han family... Your Majesty, I am leaving!"
The last loyal minister of the Han Dynasty sacrificed his life at the Tiantian Temple to curse the traitors who usurped the Han Dynasty.
"Hmph! Didn't you know that our Sima family has always been filial in the name of filial piety? Why would we kill each other?"
Seeing that Ji Ping had died, Sima Yi still felt that it was not enough, so he dodged the sword in Xu Chu's hand and chopped off his body.
"Lord Sima, why didn't you step forward and fight him just now?"
"Huhou, what do you mean?"
"This man was loyal and we should not desecrate his body!"
Sima Yi stared at Xu Chu, "What Huhou said makes sense, please help His Majesty to return to the palace first!"
After Cao Pi woke up, he appointed Jia Xu as Taiwei, Hua Xin as Situ, Wang Lang as Sikong, and all the bureaucrats, big and small, were rewarded.
Cao Pi was still ill and suspected that the palaces in Xuchang were filled with monsters, so he decided to build a palace in Xuchang in Luoyang.
