Ji Yuan and the old beggar were having a lively discussion in the courtyard. During this period, the old servant of the Qiao family brought breakfast and ate it together in the courtyard.
While the two were discussing the refining of the magic weapon, an old **** was also welcomed in the front yard of Qiao’s house. It was Gong Shun, the **** who was a close confidant of the old emperor.
Qiao Yong led the Qiao family to salute in the front yard and receive the order.
“I follow the orders of Heaven and know that Qiao Yong, the admiral of the former West Town Navy, is a loyal and righteous man. You have been home to rest for several years. I wanted to give you more rest and recuperation. However, you are busy with affairs in the government and the public. I am loyal to you and patriotic. A good minister is rare, I hope you can return to the court and help the country… From now on, the official will be restored to his original position…”
Unsurprisingly, he reinstated his officers and even allowed him to recall his old subordinates.
Although it had been expected, everyone in the Qiao family, including Qiao Yong, was still very excited. It was like they had truly returned to the upper class society. Although the Qiao family could endure hardships, who didn’t want to live a better life? I also hope to shine on the lintel.
The old **** read out loudly, and it wasn’t until the last word fell that everyone in the Qiao family thanked him loudly.
“Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty!”
Qiao Yong’s breathing was slightly trembling. He raised his head and looked at the **** who delivered the edict. The latter gently closed the edict and moved his hands forward.
“Hehehe… Mr. Qiao.”
Qiao Yong quickly accepted the gift, approached the old eunuch, and received the imperial edict with both hands.
“Thank you, father-in-law, Qiao. Qiao’s current family situation…”
When eunuchs convey orders, they often have to pay some favors. This type of **** can sometimes play an unexpected role, especially those like Gong Shun who are extremely favored by the emperor.
Gong Shun is also a good person, so he naturally knows Qiao Yong’s embarrassment and quickly refuses with both hands.
“Hey, Mr. Qiao is worrying too much. The Za family is just doing things impartially and has no other thoughts. By the way, His Majesty asked me to bring a message to Mr. Qiao before coming.”
“Father-in-law, please speak!”
The old **** looked in the direction of Qiao’s backyard and whispered.
“Are the two Immortal Chiefs still there? Your Majesty means to see the two Immortal Chiefs again sometime to ask for advice on the Immortal Way.”
Qiao Yong understood what the emperor meant and naturally nodded in agreement.
“My father-in-law, please go back and tell your majesty. I will definitely bring the message to you. It’s just that the actions of gods are unpredictable, so I can only do my best.”
“Hey, Mr. Qiao, don’t worry, the emperor is very fond of you now.”
“Uh-huh, I still need support from my father-in-law!”
“Hehehe, it’s easy to say…”
Qiao Yong now also understands very well that in the way of being an official, uprightness is naturally an excellent quality and extremely rare. However, it is easy to break when you have just passed it. Unless the emperor and important ministers are very tolerant, it is not the way to survive forever.
As soon as the **** who delivered the order left, Qiao Yong hurried to the guesthouse in the backyard. The sound had already been heard before anyone arrived.
Before, he was called Immortal Chief, but later Ji Yuan asked him to call him Mr. Ji. The old beggar naturally asked him to call him “Old Beggar”, but Mr. Ji can be called “Old Beggar”. It was too disrespectful. The Qiao family didn’t dare, so they compromised by calling him Mr. Lu.
“Mr. Ji, Mr. Lu, Mr. Ji, Mr. Lu, Qiao is here to disturb you again, you two…”
Qiao Yong’s voice stopped suddenly. When he turned through the courtyard gate, he saw that Ji Yuan and the old beggar had disappeared in the courtyard of the guest house. When he came a quarter of an hour ago, the two were still chatting. God, what are you talking about about soil and water?
“Did you leave?”
Qiao Yong was panicked. He had just guaranteed that he would bring the message. He had already left some room, but he didn’t dare to say that it would definitely happen. Now he might not even be able to bring the message.
He walked quickly to the courtyard. He first looked at the guest houses on both sides. The doors were closed properly. Then he looked at the stone table in the courtyard. Breakfast dishes were neatly placed, with rice porridge, dried radish and other items on them. Already eaten clean.
Qiao Yong did not give up. He first walked to Ji Yuan’s house and opened the door. The bedding inside was neat and clean, and the room was very transparent, leaving nothing that was not there before. Then he quickly walked to the old beggar’s house. Inside the room, it was as if no one had ever lived there.
“Hey…the two immortals are gone…how to explain this to the emperor!”
Qiao Yong walked to the courtyard with some dejection, preparing to clear away the dishes, but when he got closer, he realized that there were other things blocked by the dishes and trays due to the viewing angle. It turned out to be a small jade bottle and a writing document. paper with words on it.
As if Qiao Yong had found a treasure, he ignored the jade bottle and carefully picked up the paper. After reading it carefully, he let out a sigh of relief. At least he had an explanation to the emperor.
After putting down the paper, Qiao Yong carefully picked up the small jade bottle on the stone table. This small jade bottle was about half a palm long and **** thick. When it was shaken, one could feel the liquid inside, which was about the size of a cup.
‘Is this the ambergris mentioned in Mr. Ji’s letter? ’
Seeing that there was no one around, Qiao Yong secretly pulled out the cork on the small jade bottle. Suddenly, a strong aroma of wine floated out. It was much richer than the wine Ji Yuan poured last night, and even more intense. It was the smell that made Qiao Yong’s mind waver.
After shaking his body, Qiao Yong quickly plugged the small jade bottle again, fearing that he would not be able to withstand the temptation and drink directly.
Half an hour later, there were only the old emperor and the old **** Gong Shun, as well as Qiao Yong and the imperial master Men Yutong in the royal study room of the palace.
The old emperor grabbed Ji Yuan’s letter and read it several times. He didn’t put it down until he read it for the third time and confirmed that everything was missing.
“Hey, Ji Xianchang and Lu Xianchang actually left without saying goodbye. Although Ji Xianchang said that he would help inform Xianxia Island, we are looking for something they can’t find, but I don’t know that Xianxia Island’s Immortal Chief How will they react… And this immortal wine… Imperial Master, what do you think?”
The old emperor’s face was a little complicated. Immortal wine was naturally good, but he had not drank it before. The imperial master once specially cast a spell to convert spiritual energy into wine, turning ordinary human wine into immortal wine. It was really comfortable to drink. But it’s just comfortable.
Men Yutong was observing the small jade bottle at the moment. When he heard the old emperor’s words, he knew that he was thinking wrongly, so he quickly explained it closely.
“Your Majesty, I don’t dare to make a final decision about the affairs of Xianxia Island, but if you have a plan, I will have more hope. As for this wine, this is a real immortal wine, and the inferior one that I used to cast spiritual energy into the wine is The techniques are very different. From the selection of materials to the refining method to the care of the finished wine, the real fairy wine can be called a unique method. To a certain extent, it is like refining elixirs, besides…”
As he spoke, Men Yutong stretched out his hand to pinch the cork of the small bottle and carefully pulled it out.
The unique wine aroma of ambergris spread out, and those present were intoxicated when they smelled it.
“Moreover… the sentence in Ji Xianchang’s book is ‘Refined with great care by the king of rivers and swamps’… Your Majesty, Ji Xianchang used ‘jun’ instead of ‘god’…”
“Uh, what’s the difference?”
The old emperor subconsciously stretched out his hand to reach for the small jade bottle, and at the same time his face became slightly nervous and expectant.
“Of course there is a difference…the difference is huge…”
Men Yutong carefully handed the jade pendant to the old emperor, nodded and explained.
“Nowadays, the Dragon Clan is respected in the water, and the person who is qualified to be the king of rivers and swamps can only refer to a real dragon! Your Majesty, this wine is carefully refined by a real dragon, and its name is Ambergris may mean that real dragons will salivate when they see this wine! In other words, this is the real wine of immortality!”
The old emperor’s body trembled, and he firmly grasped the jade bottle in his hand. He restrained the strong impulse to drink it immediately, and did not forget to ask.
“Master, what kind of medicine is needed for this wine? I won’t waste the power of the medicine if I drink it directly, right?”
“Don’t worry, Your Majesty. Immortal Ji has no special instructions. It must be drinkable directly. Well, if it is convenient for Your Majesty, can you leave some for Rong Chen to study and study? No need to use more, just a few drops will be enough!”
The old emperor couldn’t help it any longer. He just nodded towards the imperial master, swallowed the saliva in his mouth first, then held the small jade bottle to his mouth, raised his head to the sky and drank the wine in the bottle. During the drinking process, the ambergris saliva The fragrant wine aroma seemed to be several times stronger.
“Gulu…Gulu…”
This is the sound of the old emperor swallowing ambergris.
“Gulu…” “Gulu…”
This was the sound of Qiao Yong and the **** Gong Shun swallowing their saliva. Even Men Yutong on one side had his throat quivering slightly.
As soon as he took a sip of the drink, the old emperor felt a hot stream of heat falling from his throat to his stomach, and then integrated into his body in an instant, rushing to his limbs and bones. The heat flow continued all over his body, and his muscles and bones seemed to be burned, but it was not painful. On the contrary, I felt very comfortable, but at the same time, my mind began to become confused and my head became dizzy.
“Good…wine…”
As soon as he uttered these two words, the exaggerated alcoholic strength of ambergris came up. The old emperor shook twice and fell to one side.
“Your Majesty!”
Qiao Yong and the old **** each took one step forward, one on the left and the other on the right to support the fallen old emperor, while Men Yutong quickly reached out to catch the small jade bottle that fell from the old emperor’s hand.
Looking carefully at the bottle, Men Yutong just sighed slightly. He had promised to leave a few drops, but only a little lingering fragrance was left…
But even so, Men Yutong quickly plugged the jade bottle tightly with a soft cork, not wanting to waste the lingering fragrance.
“Master Imperial Master, is your Majesty okay?”
The old **** asked worriedly, and Men Yutong smiled.
“Drink. If you are very drunk, if anything happens, send your Majesty to the palace to rest. It can take as short as one day or as long as three to five days, and you will definitely wake up.”
“Yes!”
The old **** and Qiao Yong felt relieved.
……
Ji Yuan and the old beggar left because they realized that Tu Siyan had woken up. It was purely because of the heated discussion about the refining of the magic weapon. The backyard of the Qiao family was no longer suitable, and the most suitable place was actually Jiu Siyan. Peak mountain.
But before that, the two of them naturally had to take a trip to Pozi Mountain. Although there was no sign that Tu Siyan would wake up immediately, this fox demon cannot be judged by common sense, so he had to go and take a look after passing by.
Sure enough, the closer they got to Pozi Mountain, the more Ji Yuan and the old beggar had a vague feeling that the fox had woken up.
