"Come here, let someone shout..."
"No, send someone to ask the governor of Yanzhou to come and explain."
"Remember, you must be respectful. If you make Mr. Mingde dissatisfied, I will skin you!"
If it weren't for the inconvenience for him to leave the house, he would have come to express his gratitude in person.
However, the matter of the elixir is important and one cannot be too hasty.
If someone sees something, it will be troublesome.
Zhang Rang could only pretend to be calm and send someone to invite the reborn parents.
When the guard heard this, his eyes were shocked.
This was the first time he heard Zhang Rang use this kind of honorific to someone other than the emperor.
I dare not neglect in my heart.
"Yes, sir!"
After responding, he turned and left.
Zhang Rang, on the other hand, was pacing back and forth in the house, feeling unspeakably uneasy.
On the other side, Liu Hong looked indifferent, waiting for Zhang Rang to come to the door.
The elixir he gave to Zhang Rang was a defective product that was scraped from a good fortune elixir and mixed into the pot ashes.
There is no guarantee that the medicine will be effective, but it should be enough to make Zhang Rang a dog.
Zhang Rang's mansion.
Liu Hong slowly followed behind the guard.
soon.
The two came to Zhang Rang's mansion.
Look at the tall building.
Liu Hong sighed in his heart, it was rare for eunuchs to be able to do this.
Step into Zhang Rang's mansion.
I saw a middle-aged man with a soft face coming forward with a flattering look on his face.
"But Duke Mingde, the governor of Yanzhou?"
Zhang Rang looked humble and showed no arrogance at all.
Looking at Liu Hong, his eyes were shocked.
Although he is over a hundred years old, he does not look old at all, but looks like a man in his prime.
The surging energy and blood are like a scorching sun, rising slowly.
Zhang Rang was immediately shocked.
He is truly a man of God!
No wonder you can refine such magical elixirs.
"Exactly!"
Liu Hong nodded reservedly, and Zhang Rang was overjoyed when he heard this.
With one look, all the servants around him retreated.
When the crowd receded, Zhang Rang bowed without hesitation.
"Mingde Gong's gift of elixir is like giving birth to my own parents. I would like to worship Mingde Gong as my adoptive father."
Liu Hong was slightly startled when he heard this.
This plot was completely different from what he imagined.
Before coming, he had been thinking about the price Zhang Rang would pay.
Unexpectedly, this old boy immediately wanted to worship him as his adoptive father.
Isn't this Lu Bu's routine?
How could this old boy learn from it?
After pondering for a moment, Liu Hong felt that he had no reason to refuse.
Although this old boy has done many unjust things, many noble ministers would like to eat his flesh and drink his blood.
However, these Qingliu Gongqing are not good things either.
It's just a bunch of dogs biting dogs.
Do you really think those nobles hated Zhang Rang because Zhang Rang harmed the Han people?
They just hated Zhang Rang for taking their cake.
Without Zhang Rang, the powerful nobles would treat the people well and not compete with them for profit?
The Yellow Turban Rebellion was partly due to the Shi Changshi, but the bigger reason was the powerful nobles taking advantage of the situation.
By taking advantage of natural and man-made disasters, they annexed people's fields and kept farmers as slaves.
A few eunuchs made life miserable for the entire Han people.
I also think highly of these eunuchs.
Zhang Rang and others were just tools supported by Liu Hong to weigh officials and relatives.
Everything was Liu Hong's tacit approval, otherwise how could a mere eunuch have such great power.
The Han Dynasty became ill due to long-term illness, and Shi Chang served in troubles and chaos, which only accelerated the speed of the Han Dynasty's demise.
Even without the Ten Constant Attendants, these nobles would sooner or later push the Han Dynasty to destruction.
Liu Hong didn't care about Zhang Rang's reputation.
After all, reputation means nothing until the Great Han collapses.
Cao Cao had a bad reputation among the nobles, and he still divided the world.
Having soldiers and food is the last word.
The advantages of accepting Zhang as his adopted son obviously outweigh the disadvantages.
As long as he didn't expose this relationship openly, who would know that Zhang Rang was his adopted son.
Thinking of this, Liu Hong quickly helped Zhang Rang up.
"Zhang Rang my son, why is this happening!"
After an affectionate performance, Liu Hongxi raised a eldest son.
After drinking for three rounds, Zhang Rang couldn't help but ask hopefully.
"Does the adoptive father still have this magical elixir in his hand?"
Liu Hong's previous pill only allowed his body to recover a little.
If I can get three or two more magic pills, I can become a real man again.
The wish that he had dreamed of day and night was about to come true, and his heart suddenly lifted, waiting for Liu Hong's reply.
"Although my father is proficient in elixir refining, these magical elixirs cannot be made casually."
Hearing this, Zhang Rang nodded as if pounding garlic.
This was quite what he expected.
If this kind of magical elixir could be obtained casually, he would not be so solemn about worshiping Liu Hong as his adoptive father.
"The refining process of this elixir is demanding and requires the collection of dozens of rare medicinal herbs."
"It takes a year to refine one."
Liu Hong's words are half true and half false.
The purpose is naturally to make concessions.
Although this boy has already worshiped him as his adoptive father, it is still unclear whether he will devote his life to him.
But as long as it involves pills, Zhang Rang is definitely more concerned about it than anyone else.
As long as the goal has not been achieved, you will not dare to violate him.
He just wanted to make Zhang Rang his dog in the name of alchemy.
Just delay it for a few years.
Three or four years later, Liu Hong died suddenly, and the chess piece was useless.
"One piece a year...."
Zhang Rang was disappointed at first, and then cheered up.
I have been waiting for so many years, and it is not less than three or two years.
He is in his prime and will still be able to recruit people in three or two years.
With his status, he could still have several concubines and multiply his family.
Liu Hong looked at Zhang Rang's expression and knew that the heat was almost over.
Sighing.
"Although refining an elixir is difficult, it is also simple. It's just that I have searched all over Yanzhou for all kinds of precious medicinal herbs and it's hard to get a single elixir together."
"If we can gather the efforts of several states, we might be able to refine the elixir faster."
Seeing that Zhang Rang's attention was all attracted.
Liu Hong did not hesitate to throw out another bombshell trump card.
Since you want to fish, you must throw out bait that the fish cannot refuse.
And no one in the world can refuse his next bait.
"Speaking of which, a few years ago I accidentally obtained a prescription for elixir. If refined, it can extend one's life by ten years."
"It's a pity that a clever woman cannot make a meal without rice."
Liu Hong sighed while looking at Zhang Rang's expression.
Throughout the ages, no matter whether they are princes, generals or emperors, any powerful person can resist the temptation of immortality.
He didn't believe that this old boy could bear it.
Sure enough, Zhang Rang's breathing suddenly became rapid when he heard that his life would be extended by ten years.
A pair of eyes were bloodshot.
If someone had told him that he could make a life-extending elixir, he would have called someone to throw him out and beat him to death with sticks.
However, when these words came out of Liu Hong's mouth, he had to believe them.
"I wanted to take advantage of my position as governor of Yanzhou to collect various spiritual herbs and refine this elixir."
"Unfortunately, I heard that His Majesty thinks that I am old and has the idea of appointing another governor of Yanzhou. I am afraid that I will never have the opportunity to refine these elixirs in this life."
As he spoke, he pretended to be sad.
