"What's the matter with you? Didn't you have a good relationship with Zhao'er before?"
Qu Xiuwen frowned and said, "The former young master is just a young master. As long as you don't cause trouble, it will be done naturally."
"Your Majesty, do you really think that the current young master is a young master?"
King Xia Wen raised his eyes and glanced at him twice. It was these two glances that scared Qu Xiuwen to tears.
That kind of aura that is unique to a king makes people feel tight inside.
After a long time, King Xia Wen said seriously, "Do you think he is suitable?"
"My lord, I only know that with the land of five counties, it won't take long for the young master to have the strength to compete with Chaoxian."
"That's impossible. All the richest counties in Xia Kingdom are in my hands."
"But Young Master can turn a poor county into the most prosperous county."
...
King Xia Wen crushed the coins in his palm with his fingers, his eyes were deep in thought, with occasional flashes of light.
After a long time, a hearty voice sounded.
"Hahahaha, he is worthy of being the son of a widower. He is really amazing. He is a born king. There is no way that this troubled world will end in his hands."
Suddenly, King Xia Wen's expression changed rapidly and with a "pop" sound, he spurted out a large mouthful of blood mist, and his face suddenly turned into gold paper.
Qu Xiuwen was frightened and wanted to call someone, but stopped abruptly and carefully pulled Xue Kangan in.
Xue Kang'an, who had just come in, saw such a scene and was almost frightened. He chopped Qu Xiuwen into pieces.
Qu Xiuwen was also startled, pushed away the knife he pulled out, and said depressedly.
"If you want to doubt me, you shouldn't doubt me. Hurry up and call our own doctor."
Xue Kang'an suddenly thought of something and left in a hurry.
Qu Xiuwen took out a box from a hidden corner of the cabinet, with only three pills on both sides.
He picked up an elixir, crushed the wax coat outside, and served it to King Xia Wen with wine.
After taking the elixir, it only took a few minutes for King Xia Wen's face to slowly turn rosy.
After a while, the imperial doctor ran over. Without even taking off his shoes, he immediately came to King Xia Wen and started taking his pulse.
Gradually, his face turned ugly, and Qu Xiuwen said in shock.
"How is the king's health?"
The imperial doctor raised his head with difficulty and shook his head silently, "The oil is gone and the lamp is dry."
"It's just strange that the king's vitality is slowly recovering. Although he cannot make ends meet, he is relieved."
After the imperial physician finished speaking, Qu Xiuwen immediately handed the elixir to the imperial physician and said, "This is the elixir that Lord Wu An paid tribute to. It is said to be very valuable. Even with Lord Wu An's ability, he only has three pills."
The imperial doctor took it over and took a look, smelled it, and said in shock, "This, this is the Golden Liquid Pill!!!"
"What is Golden Liquid Pill?" Qu Xiuwen didn't know anything about medicine.
The imperial doctor couldn't help but take another sniff of the elixir, "This is a secret that is not passed down by the leader of the medical family. It is said that those who take this elixir can not only extend their life, but can even rejuvenate their youth."
"Furthermore, the king's pulse has begun to change from weak to strong. It's not serious, I guess. It's probably due to the excitement just now."
Qu Xiuwen suddenly grabbed his hand and asked, "The king's body has always been fine?"
The imperial doctor was silent, glanced at him, and shook his head, "The body is like a cauldron. The cauldron is incomplete. It's just that more things are added than left out, so the king's life can be delayed."
"What should I do?"
After thinking for a while, the imperial doctor smiled and said, "It's very simple. Use the Golden Liquid Pill to prolong your life. I will prescribe a prescription to regulate the king's body. It should be fine for a few years, but~~~!"
"Alas~~~!"
"Sir, please don't let the king fluctuate emotionally in the future, otherwise it will be difficult for the gods to save him."
"Okay, I'll save it~~! You must not let anyone know what happened today, do you understand?"
The imperial doctor nodded, "Don't worry, my family has been favored by the king. Even if someone puts a knife on my neck, I won't say anything. And
The king is fine again today, but his knowledge is just a bit cold. "
Qu Xiuwen's eyes lit up and he nodded happily.
After a few days of cultivation, the king gradually recovered some of his physical strength. His whole face turned sallow, and it was obvious that his foundation was completely destroyed.
If the most appropriate metaphor for King Xia Wen's body is that of a broken tooth, the nerve has been rotten, but the surface has been repaired.
But this tooth is no longer alive. As for when it can no longer be used, it depends on luck. It may fall out after one year, or it may not fall out after three years.
During this period, hard objects such as bones must no longer be eaten.
The same is true for King Xia Wen. His body has recovered, but his life is like a rootless duckweed. It is impossible to say when it will disappear.
King Xia Wen, who knew his physical condition, was stunned for a while, calmed down, and wrote a letter home.
He explained the details of his body to Yang Gan in detail.
There was another edict, stamped with a seal, and handed to Qu Xiuwen.
"One is a letter from home, and you keep the other one. If anything happens to me in the future, I will open it and let Zhao'er come back. His mother misses him very much."
Qu Xiuwen took it with respectful hands and asked, "Your Majesty, the Queen's body?"
"The queen's health is fine. She just needs to rest and stabilize her mind for a long time. She doesn't know anything about Zhao'er's condition."
"promise!"
After several of his confidants left, King Xia Wen couldn't help but feel a little tired, and he came to the harem with the support of a large number of people.
Yuntong County.
Yang Qian has been here for a while, wandering around the streets and alleys almost every day. Zhang Yumeng laughed and called him Yuntong Street Slut.
The main reason is to get first-hand information. No matter when, some things must be done personally. The system of Amagari Division is good.
Each time, some issues will be addressed and the system will be fine-tuned in order to make the entire organization more adaptable to the changes of the times.
But people's hearts are uncontrollable, so Yang Qian will do many things personally, and then use the information from Tianshou Division.
Whether he is being lazy or not, whether he is hiding something or not, he knows it clearly.
For the entire Yuntong County now, he is like a teacher standing on the podium, looking down, he knows everything, some are too lazy to take care of, some must be taken care of, and some need to be strangled in the cradle.
With the passage of time, the four counties were gradually included in the political structure of Yuntong.
Tianshou Division also opened branches in these four counties.
It might be a teahouse, a wine shop, or even a romantic place.
On this day, Yang Qian was lying in the box of Chunmeng Pavilion, enjoying the essential oil massage from the two maids.
Ran Jing came over to report.
"Your Majesty, this letter from Chao Xian basically means that the king misses you very much, and his health is getting worse and worse, and he almost died this time."
"Fortunately, I saved my life after taking the golden liquid elixir you sent me last time. I hope you can give me more of this elixir."
Ran Jing quickly stated what he meant. After receiving the letter, the person from Yuntong sent the letter directly over the phone. It covered thousands of miles in almost one day.
Fortunately, the king wrote very implicitly and did not expose the relationship between the two. He seemed to be very concerned about a minister.
Yang Gan was stunned for a moment, then sat up and said dumbfounded, "Is that thing really effective?"
Ran Jing persuaded, "Your Majesty, Doctor Ge has said many times that this elixir is very effective in replenishing yang energy. Why have you never taken it?"
Yang Qian's mouth twitched hard, "Eat?" Eat your uncle.
What is Golden Liquid Pill? It was an elixir made mainly of sulfur, with various herbs added, and some gold was also smeared on the outside. .
No matter how you look at it, it looks like a pill taken by a birthday girl. Anyone who is not a nine-legged fish will never believe this kind of thing.
Thinking of the ancient records of many people dying suddenly after taking pills, Yang Gan's head shook like a rattle.
At that time, the doctor treated the pill as a living horse while treating it as a dead horse.
The medicine was delivered, after all, he knew more or less about King Xia Wen's body.
As for the Golden Liquid Pill, unless there is scientific proof, I would not eat it even if I beat myself to death.
"Since the king needs it, let Ge Zhao make a box and send it over. The king's safety is very important now."
According to the current situation, if I am not the king, I am afraid that I will be killed, because many of my policies are incompatible with this era.
It can be said that he has been on the opposite side of the scholar-bureaucrats and has single-handedly opposed the entire aristocracy.
But what many people don't know is that Yang Qian never intended to destroy all the nobles.
The solidified class does have many disadvantages, but there is one advantage that cannot be ignored, and that is stability.
Yang Qian's goal has always been to let the nobles give up profits to the people, so that they can truly achieve peace once and for all.
It's a pity that the two gangs are not together, and they are holding out their butcher knives at each other. It can be said that they are incompatible with each other.
Once Yang Qian is no longer the king and King Xia Wen dies again, the king who comes to power will naturally support the nobles.
In fact, if you want to take control, you need to take into account the interests of everyone. Only when you take into account the interests of everyone, then the king is the king.
But these people have forgotten the people, and they have forgotten that the entire world is composed of the people. Without the people, it will be a disaster.
"No~ Then I'll inform you now~~!"
Yang Qian said depressedly, "Come back!"
Ran Jing was called back just as he came to the door.
Yang Gan stared at Ran Jing's face for a long time, and the latter felt a chill all over his body.
"Your Majesty?"
Yang Qian frowned and said, "You are really a weirdo. In fact, our relationship is so good, privately we are no worse than brothers."
"How wonderful it is to have such a good relationship, take a bath together, warm up the sauna, and go to the sauna together? Why do you always refuse to be honest with each other?"
Yang Qian pointed to his lower body, "Is it possible that you feel inferior because of comparison with me?"
Ran Jing's face instantly turned red, he swallowed his saliva and said, "Jun, Your Majesty, I, from childhood to adulthood, have never taken a bath with anyone else."
Yang Gan was furious when he saw Ran Jing's cowardly look. In other words, Uncle Liu wanted to sleep with Guan Yu and Zhang Fei because he wanted to win over them, so he and his subordinates would take a sauna and run for three days. Warmth is also normal.
But Ran Jing, whom he regarded as a confidant, was so resistant, which made Yang Qian less and less confident in himself.
Helpless, he didn't want to use force to deal with his own people. It was okay to give orders, but if he forced them every time, he would probably become alienated.
