"The Queen Mother has not visited me for a long time." Liu Bian had a lonely look on his face. Ever since Queen He was consecrated as Queen by Liu Hong, she had never left the palace to visit Liu Bian.

, if anything happened to Liu Bian, Shi Zixuan would go into the palace and report to Queen He.

"Not even Xiang'er and San'er know my true identity. As a prince, I can't live in the palace, nor can I serve my parents. Those civil and military ministers said that I behaved frivolously, so they told my father not to stand.

I am the prince and an old Taoist, you know all these things, right?"

"Now, with my alchemy skills, am I just trying to make money? No, I just want to attract the attention of my father and mother, and remind them not to forget that there is a prince living in the Shi Daochang family, a prince of a big man.

.”

"What kind of prince is he if he can't return to the palace? If he can't aspire to the ninth position, what's the use of being a prince?"

"Old Taoist, are you willing to help me?"

Maybe it was because Liu Bian's voice was full of some kind of temptation, maybe it was because Liu Bian's expression and words moved Shi Zixiao, or maybe it was because of the influence of the muscle-building pill, in short, at this moment, Shi Zixiao felt a kind of force in his body.

Things seemed to be jumping out, so he bowed his head and said loudly: "Old Taoist Shi Zixuan, I am willing to do your best for Your Highness!"

Under the sweet-scented osmanthus tree, the scorching sun is still shining brightly. The sky is blue and the clouds are white. The old man is still the same old man, and the prince is no longer the same prince.

With Shi Zixuan's oath of allegiance, what Liu Bian has to do next will be much easier. First of all, Shiquan Xiaobu Dan and Jiuzhuan Ziyang Dan will continue to be sold, but Liu Bian changed it to two types of elixirs each.

Only five pieces of each type are sold every day, and each piece is priced at fifty taels of gold. It is first come, first served, and there will be no waiting time.

Then Liu Bian asked Shi Zixuan to spread rumors in Luoyang City, saying that the alchemist of these two kinds of elixirs had extremely high medical skills and could cure all kinds of diseases, but the reward for visiting the doctor was very high, and it would cost one hundred gold to cure the disease.

We only visit the clinic once every two or three days, and you need to make an appointment in advance for treatment.

Finally, Liu Bian needed Shi Zixuan to clean out all the medicinal materials shops in Luoyang City. As long as they were medicinal materials, no matter what properties they were, no matter what disease they were used to treat, as long as they were related to the word "medicine", they would all be bought back.

A month later, although the prices of Shiquan Xiaobu Dan and Jiuzhuan Ziyang Dan were raised to fifty taels of gold each, due to the small number of sales and the fact that there were too many dignitaries in Luoyang City, the popularity had reached a fever pitch.

The price of these two elixirs has gradually increased to one hundred taels of gold. What is the concept of one hundred taels of gold? It is a sky-high price, but even so, there are still many people queuing up at Shi Zixuan's house every day

Waiting at the door to buy.

The medicinal materials shops in Luoyang City have also seen the phenomenon of medicinal materials being sold out. Many patients are unable to get the medicine with the prescriptions prescribed by the doctors. It is necessary for major shops to mobilize medicinal materials from outside and transport them to Luoyang. This phenomenon makes all kinds of medicines available.

The prices of medicinal materials continued to rise. Fortunately, Liu Bian asked Shi Zixuan to stop purchasing medicinal materials in time, and the prices of medicinal materials gradually stabilized.

Ordinary people thought that there was a master of alchemy living in Shi Zixiao's home, but only a few high-ranking officials knew that a prince lived in Shi Zixiao's home. Shi Zixiao also deliberately asked some buyers who were related to high-ranking officials.

Revealed some secrets, that is, these elixirs are all royal

It was refined by Zi Liu Bian. Soon this secret spread among officials, and Han Ling Emperor Liu Hong also learned about it.

On this day, Shi Zixuan was summoned by Liu Hong and Queen He, accompanied by Taiwei Yuan Wei. As soon as Shi Zixuan saw the emperor and the queen, he knelt down to pay homage and said long live the emperor. Originally, he was very uneasy when he was suddenly summoned by the emperor.

Yes, but before entering the palace, Liu Bian had already told him a lot, and Shi Zixuan looked calm and composed at this moment.

"Daozhang Shi, there are rumors circulating in Luoyang recently that even three-year-old children know that you have magical elixirs. Is this true?" Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty was only twenty-five years old at this time, but he had been pampered and indulged for many years and was not restrained.

His pursuit of pleasure made him look like he was already in his forties, with a wide body and a fat body, dull eyes and a dull face.

"Your Majesty, it's true." Shi Zixuan answered truthfully, his voice was loud, as if Liu Hong couldn't hear him.

"Did you refine these elixirs?" Liu Hong asked. Regarding this issue, if there were many rumors in Luoyang City, Liu Hong was also very curious about this issue. All the officials said that it was his son Liu

Debian refining, but Liu Hong didn't believe it.

Can an eight-year-old child make elixirs? As an emperor, I can also cultivate immortality. Does anyone believe it?

"Your Majesty, it is not made by a poor man."

"Who refined it?"

"It was refined by Prince Liu Bian."

"Nonsense! Bian'er is only eight years old, how can he know how to make alchemy?"

"I would never dare to deceive Your Majesty. Prince Liu Bian indeed made it. I saw this with my own eyes."

"Huh? How come Bian'er knows how to make elixirs? Please tell me carefully."

…

At the time of the introduction, Shi Zixuan told Liu Hong the story of how Liu Bian deceived him, and he also enriched the level of fantasy in it. The process was tortuous, ups and downs, and exciting. Liu Hong and Queen He could be heard talking about it from time to time.

He let out an exclamation, and even Yuan Wei on the side found it very incredible.

Prince Liu Bian was pointed out by an immortal! This is the biggest news in the Eastern Han Dynasty this year!

Shi Zixuan saw that the emperor and the empress were listening with great interest, and the voice of his explanation became more emotional. In addition, various complex Taoist immortal academics were interspersed in it, so that the emperor and empress who had already understood it gradually understood it again.

Don't quite understand.

After all, there were some understanding people present. Seeing that Shi Zixiao was speaking clearly and eloquently, Taiwei Yuan Wei gradually deviated from the topic and went to Taoist academics. He calmly pretended to cough and interrupted Shi Zixiao and said: "Shi Zixiao."

Taoist priest, I wonder if Prince Liu Bian is safe in your residence?"

"Back to Grand Tutor, to be honest, the prince is not doing well today." Shi Zixuan saw Yuan Wei interrupting him, but he was not unhappy and still answered calmly.

"Bian'er, what's wrong with him? Is he sick?" Queen He asked hurriedly after hearing Shi Zixuan's words.

"Back to the Queen, the prince is not sick at all, but he has been a little haggard recently because he missed His Majesty and the Queen too much. The Prince often said that not being able to serve His Majesty and the Queen is the biggest regret in his life." Shi Zixuan's expression became lonely as he spoke.

, as if he was the one who felt regretful.

Sigh... In fact, the old Taoist is also one of His Majesty's princes scattered among the people today? Huh? Does anyone believe it?

"In that case, Your Majesty, why not take Bian'er back to the palace!" Queen He turned around and said to Liu Hong. Originally, Queen He planned to raise Liu Bian in Shi Zixuan's house until he was ten years old before taking him back to the palace.

Yes, but now it is said that Liu Bian was suddenly taught by an immortal and learned the powerful alchemy technique. Queen He couldn't wait to see Liu Bian.

Previously, because she was afraid that Liu Bian would be harmed by an adulterer, and with the idea of ​​praying for Taoist protection, Empress He fostered Liu Bian in Shi Zixiao's home. In addition, she was promoted from noble to queen two years ago. In order to avoid

The concubines in the harem were jealous of her and harmed Liu Bian. Empress He did not dare to have more contact with Liu Bian, which made her visit Liu Bian less and less. After not seeing him for a long time, she did not

It reduced and affected Queen He's love for Liu Bian, but as time went on, Queen He felt more and more guilty. Is there any mother in the world who doesn't love and protect her son? The same is true for Queen He.

Why is Empress He afraid that the concubines in the harem will harm Liu Bian? She is especially worried about Empress Dowager Dong. The entire palace knows about Empress He's murder of Wang Meiren, so Empress Dowager Dong has always disliked Liu Bian, and she prefers Wang Meiren.

His son Liu Xie was also raised by Empress Dowager Dong.

Firstly, Empress Dowager Dong did not like Liu Bian; secondly, Liu Bian had not behaved well since he was a child and was looked down upon by senior officials and ministers, which made Liu Hong also look down on Liu Bian; thirdly, because of Queen He's own selfish love, so

Liu Bian has always lived in Shi Zixuan's house. But now Queen He thinks that Liu Bian has changed. Not only does he have the guidance of immortals, he can also refine magical elixirs, and he is enough to protect himself and be independent, so she has a strong desire to take him back.

Liu Bian's thoughts.

Liu Hong hasn't spoken yet, but Yuan Wei has already said: "I'd like to inform you, Master Shi's statement has not been confirmed yet. You must not act rashly. You need to be cautious when taking back the prince."

When Queen He heard what Yuan Wei said, she couldn't help but get angry. She pointed at Yuan Wei and said, "Why do you want to prevent the prince from returning to the palace?"

"I just don't want your majesty and empress to be deceived. You can learn from your loyalty!" Yuan Wei said neither humble nor arrogant. The fourth and third princes of the Yuan family had disciples and former officials all over the Han Dynasty. To be honest, Yuan Wei didn't look down on this butcher at all.

As the queen, he also looked down upon the attendant He Jin, let alone the prince Liu Bian.

"Your Majesty, your Majesty, everything I said is true." Shi Zixuan knelt down and kowtowed again, then took out a pill and placed it on his head and said, "This pill can confirm that this is perfect.

The Xiaobu Dan was personally refined by Prince Liu Bian, and it has the effect of curing all kinds of diseases. Your Majesty and your Majesty, please share it with me."

A young eunuch stepped forward and took the elixir from Shi Zixuan's hand and handed it to Liu Hong. Liu Hong took it and put it in front of his nose and smelled it. A fragrant smell poured into his nasal cavity. Liu Hong only felt that his heart and lungs were

He felt a bit refreshed, and he was about to eat it when he heard Yuan Wei say: "Your Majesty should send someone to test the medicine."

"Zhao Zhong, take it!" Liu Hong handed the elixir to Zhao Zhong, the eunuch of Zhongchang who was standing next to him.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Zhao Zhong took the elixir but did not take it immediately. He first glared at Yuan Wei, feeling extremely dissatisfied.

Old guy, if this pill is poisonous, wouldn't it kill me? The relationship is settled today, we'll see in the future!

Zhao Zhongxin took the elixir and immediately felt refreshed. Originally, he had a stiff neck when he got up this morning, and his neck and shoulders were sore. After taking the elixir, the pain of his stiff neck disappeared immediately.

He happily said to Liu Hong in a hurry: "Your Majesty, this pill is really a magic pill. Today I have a stiff neck and sore neck and shoulders. As soon as I take this pill, my neck and shoulders immediately feel relaxed and there is no more pain." After saying this, Zhao

Zhong Huan looked at Yuan Wei very proudly, but Yuan Wei was an old tree with its roots entwined and did not move at all.

"Is it really so miraculous?" Liu Hong was also surprised. He felt a little distressed for his deception, thinking that if he had just taken this elixir, he should not listen to Yuan Wei's nonsense. When Empress He heard Zhao Zhong's words, she felt sad in her heart.

He was also surprised, but there was a trace of doubt on Yuan Wei's face.

"What do you think about Bian'er returning to the palace?" Liu Hong then asked.

Zhao Zhong was one of the most trusted eunuchs around Liu Hong. There were twenty or thirty eunuchs favored by Liu Hong. However, after Cao Jie became seriously ill and Wang Fu died, only Zhang Rang and Zhao Zhong trusted him the most.

, Liu Hong will generally listen to some of Zhao Zhong’s suggestions.

When Zhao Zhong heard this, he had an idea in his mind. He knew that Yuan Wei had always looked down on Queen He and Liu Bian, and now he had formed a relationship with Yuan Wei. Zhao Zhong also knew that Queen He was usually good to him, and she also understood
