"What?"
Hearing this, Yun Jiutang was about to speak, but he still looked around and closed his mouth.
Eldar spies were everywhere, so it was better for her to be careful.
So, she and Mu Canglin returned to the palace.
Immediately, the two went to the study, and Yun Jiutang took out the pill that Lu Lingyan had given Luo Feng before.
"I looked at this pill at that time, and there was nothing wrong with it. Moreover, the medicinal materials used in it are all top-notch."
Yun Jiutang said seriously, "Even the combination of all the medicinal materials is just right. However, there is an extra thing in it! It does not affect the efficacy of the medicine, but it has a greater use!"
"Are they the same as those beggars?" Mu Canglin asked first.
"You really have a tacit understanding!" Yun Jiutang said, "Yes, that's it! But this is just my guess, I can't be sure yet!
Moreover, what Ergouzi said may not be entirely correct! Maybe it’s not just me who has pure blood! My blood can be put into pills, but not necessarily Lu Lingyan’s!
When I think about it, I think of the day I first came here..."
As she spoke, she suddenly closed her mouth.
Although she is now very familiar with Mu Canglin, she still has not told him this secret.
The fact that she comes from another world is really unbelievable.
Although Mu Canglin had doubts about her, he never asked her personally.
The secrets about her were tacitly shared by both of them and they were not mentioned.
Of course, she has no plans to mention it now.
Mu Canglin looked at her with a calm look in his eyes. He didn't mean to press any questions, but it just made her feel guilty for no reason.
Yun Jiutang cleared his throat, then changed the subject and said, "It was that night when you almost died after taking the fake death medicine. I always thought that Lu Lingyan was a Beirong spy who wanted to take the opportunity to kill you. .”
"She is not from Beirong." Mu Canlin said casually, "She just wants to blame Beirong and cause a war between the two countries."
"Well, I know! But she is from the Spiritual Clan! According to Ergouzi, she probably wanted to turn you into an obedient puppet of hers!" Yun Jiutang sighed,
"If it really succeeds, it will be really scary!"
This matter is really terrifying if you think about it carefully. If it weren't for her unintentional collision at that time, Mu Canglin would have died due to Lu Lingyan's conspiracy.
In fact, what she did in this matter was not leak-proof. If Mu Canglin really died that night, if he wanted to investigate carefully, he might not be able to find Lu Lingyan.
Therefore, her real purpose may not be to really make him die, but to make him completely surrender.
Like Luo Yu and others, he became a puppet with his own consciousness but completely obeyed her.
For Mu Canglin, that was something more terrifying than death!
"Fortunately, I have you, Tangtang."
"Is Ergouzi doing this this time a reminder to us?" Yun Jiutang pinched his chin, with a solemn look on his face, "I don't believe Lu Lingyan has no back-up plan."
Before Lu Lingyan's backup plan could be used, a large number of people fell ill in Beijing.
Reminiscent of the previous plague in Longzhou, people in Beijing were panicked for a while.
The imperial court also took a series of measures to control the spread of the disease, even allocating funds for pesticides.
As a result, medicines were distributed one after another, and the number of patients did not necessarily decrease.
On the contrary, those medical clinics and drug stores are making a lot of money.
Along with many common people, they also made a lot of money by selling medicinal materials.
Although the imperial court severely cracked down on the reselling of medicinal materials, after all, the profits were too high, and the matter continued to be banned.
Everyone felt that this was the capital, and the emperor had the imperial court at his feet.
They earn a little more first, and then a little more, and when the illness becomes serious, the court will distribute medicinal materials anyway.
At that time, it’s not too late to seek treatment!
As a result, the drug store didn't have enough medicine.
They have to buy medicinal materials at higher prices than before.
People who have medicines see such high prices and don’t want to sell them easily.
They still want to wait and continue to increase prices!
Some people even sell medicines directly outside medical clinics to those in urgent need of them at prices that are several times higher than before.
They had to spend more money to buy medicine, and all the money they had earned before was thrown back.
Many people can’t even buy life-saving medicine with money!
Everyone was seriously ill, but there was no cure, so everyone panicked.
Seeing that the Qianqiu Festival is approaching, such a big event has happened in the capital, and the emperor is also anxious and anxious.
No one wants words like a catastrophe or epidemic to appear during his reign.
Maybe, this will be regarded as the emperor's misconduct.
Some people suggested that a large number of medicinal materials should be recruited across the country to relieve the capital.
However, it is not that easy to implement this step by step.
Medicinal materials need to be allocated and transported, which requires a lot of manpower and material resources.
The imperial court couldn't even come up with that much money all at once!
Someone else suggested that nobles from aristocratic families must have a lot of surplus at home, so they should donate all the medicinal materials to make up for the current loopholes.
Naturally, this move was opposed by many people. After all, it touched on their interests.
When a disaster is imminent, everyone is trying to sweep away the snow in front of the house. How can they have the leisure to care about the life and death of irrelevant people.
Everyone was quarreling, but no one was of any use.
While the emperor was irritated, Mu Canglin handed over the book and put forward his own suggestions.
Seeing this, the emperor immediately became very angry.
Now that wasn't enough, he was going to call for Mu Canglin and give him a beating in person.
Mu Canglin left, and the emperor didn't say a word. He just scolded him.
He had been angry recently, but now he was so angry that he directly picked up the inkstone at hand and hit Mu Canglin.
Mu Canglin did not dodge, and the inkstone hit his forehead. The ink mixed with blood stained most of his face, which looked really scary.
Concubine Zhuang rushed over after hearing the news. She glanced at Mu Canglin and hurried to the emperor's side to comfort him.
"Your Majesty, don't be the same as him! The dragon's body is the most important thing!" Concubine Zhuang said warmly,
"The same goes for you, Lin'er. Even if you want to make up for your mistakes in Longzhou, you can't just talk nonsense!
How dare you give casual advice if you only know a little about it!
Why don't you go home and think about your mistakes quickly? Stop staying here and make your father angry! "
Hearing this, the little bit of fatherly love aroused in the emperor's heart by his tragic situation disappeared without a trace in an instant.
"I didn't expect that you are also such a person who loves success! I am so disappointed in you!" Just when the emperor was disappointed, King Qin came.
"Father, I sent people to allocate a large amount of medicinal materials, which should be able to alleviate the capital's urgent needs." Mu Jingheng said,
"Moreover, I have ordered that the price of medicine be strictly controlled! Anyone who dares to increase the price arbitrarily will be taken to the government office, punished with twenty canes, and thrown into prison!"
"Alas, it's my fault that I failed to educate my children well. Now that King Qin is so good, I really envy others!"
Concubine Zhuang sighed sadly, "Your Majesty, please put your health first and don't act like a child."
"Concubine Zhuang's compliments are unworthy of me. It's my honor to be able to relieve my father's worries." Mu Jingheng said, looking at the embarrassed Mu Canglin beside him, shaking his head and sighing,
"Second brother! You are a good hand at fighting, but you may not be proficient in other matters. You'd better not cause trouble in such important matters of people's livelihood. Go back and have a good rest!"
As he spoke, Mu Jingheng's eyes showed a look of gloating.
At this time, Mu Canglin still looked unfazed.
"Father, don't you ask me why you proposed this?"
