Chapter 918

Shi Anxia said her original intention, "Have you heard of Yunqi Academy?"

Liang Yanbing smiled and said, "Look at what you said. Yunqi Academy is far ahead of others. Both the civil and military examinations surpass the Imperial College and the Duke's Mansion Academy. Even if I am ignorant, I must know that the princess runs a school, which is unique."

Shi Anxia blushed, thinking that she had found a good opportunity. She got to the point, "I want to open a medical course, and I have invited several doctors from the Imperial Hospital to teach. I wonder if I will be so lucky as to invite Madam Anguo to teach?"

Liang Yanbing was extremely surprised. "Me? Teacher Ren?"

This is something that requires you to be in the spotlight!

When she was in Huizhou before, she could still pretend to be a servant and run around with her husband. Now that she is back in the capital, she is worried about how to live in the future when she is locked up at home.

She remembered that women in the capital used to stay indoors, and the daughters of powerful and aristocratic families were not allowed to show up outside. Has the capital changed now?

Shi Anxia saw her concerns, "The emperor is open-minded. The restrictions on women in the capital are not as strict as before. Not long ago, I worked as a teacher in the Imperial Examination Hall, and the emperor was there at that time. It can be seen that the tolerance of the capital is very large now. I wonder if Lord Gao minds..."

"He doesn't mind. He also knows that I'm not good at needlework, and I don't know how to take care of my husband and children... Hey, my sons are all grown up and traveling abroad. I don't need to worry about them." Liang Yanbing stroked her belly gently. "This child is also very well-behaved and never makes a fuss. There is no problem on my side."

The two talked for a long time and had a very pleasant conversation.

When Cen Yuan came back in the evening, Shi Anxia repeated what Liang Yanbing had said.

Unexpectedly, Cen Yuan's expression suddenly changed. "The flowers are large and colorful? The fruits and shells can be used as medicine?"

Shi Anxia didn't understand why her husband was so nervous, so she nodded, "That's what Madam Anguo said."

Cen Yuan said in a deep voice, "Then Niaoyin Mountain must be sealed immediately."

Shi Anxia was even more surprised, "Why?"

Cen Yuan rubbed his brows and asked, "Have you forgotten how Emperor Rongguang died?"

Shi Anxia's expression also changed, "That! That! Longevity cream?"

Cen Yuan nodded, "The longevity cream is made of this damn thing. If it's not handled properly, it will lead to the destruction of the country. Before too many people know about it, seal the mountain and control it."

Shi Anxia's face turned pale. She didn't expect that a casual chat with Mrs. An Guo would lead to the topic of longevity cream.

What is that longevity cream?

It can make people feel ecstatic and indulge in illusory pleasure. Emperor Rongguang ate that thing and lost interest in government affairs. He kept saying that he was going to become a god.

Shi Anxia didn't know whether he could become a god or not. But she saw that when Emperor Rongguang was dying, he was skinny and had many diseases. Occasionally, he would be lucid for a short while, and when he was lucid, he would ask someone to bring him the longevity cream.

Then, after taking the longevity cream, Emperor Rongguang felt that he was good enough again and felt proud and ready to unify the world.

Some ministers in the court were influenced by Emperor Rongguang and also took Fu Shou Gao. Some even took their sons, grandsons, and even women in their families to take it.

Cen Yuan's face was very serious. "I don't know what that flower is called in the North Wing, but it has a name called 'Poppy'. In the beginning, it was indeed a good medicine for curing diseases and saving lives. But over time, some people discovered other uses..."
