The Journey of Immortality of the Peerless Medical Concubine

Back then, China was almost destroyed because of this thing.

Those are the lives of tens of millions of people. Her description is not an exaggeration at all.

Even today, many people have lost their families because of DP addiction.

Nowadays, DPs are emerging in an endless stream, with various new varieties making it difficult to guard against them.

"If Grandpa Emperor doesn't believe it, just ask someone to try it and you'll know."

"Aren't there still some heinous prisoners on death row in the prison?"

Hearing this, Tang Zongluan's eyes suddenly lit up.

That’s right, why don’t you ask someone to try it and then you’ll know?

Tang Zongluan immediately grabbed a handful of poppy fruits and used the method Wen Liuli had mentioned to dry out the juice inside. He then ordered his men to deliver the extracted opium to the Sky Prison without stopping.

On the other hand, when Yun Yin and the guards from the princess's mansion returned to the place where Tang Ling'er sold poppies, the merchant had long disappeared. After searching for him in vain, they had no choice but to return to King Wu's mansion in frustration.

"Madam said that if you can't find him, then keep looking. Even if you have to turn the imperial city upside down, you must find him."

However, when they returned to Prince Wu's Mansion, they only saw Yuping standing coldly at the gate and explaining what Wen Liuli had left before leaving.

Wen Liuli, Tang Zongluan and a group of four had already gone to the Heavenly Prison. When they left, Wen Liuli guessed that Yun Yin and the others would not be able to find anyone, so he left this message.

If the vendor really didn't know what it was, then nothing would happen. But if he knew, then after selling the stuff he would not stay there, but would instead publicize the uses of opium.

It depends on whether the vendor is intentional or not.

If this is really the worst case scenario, then the merchant should be condemned.

Wen Liuli has always believed that poppy would not appear in the imperial city for no reason. There must be someone who wants to use this thing to disrupt the order of the Eastern Wilderness, or even control the entire Eastern Wilderness.

After hearing this, Yun Yin and others' faces instantly fell. The imperial city is so big, where can they find people?

But my wife has told me to do this, so I have no choice but to do it.

"Madam also said that if it really doesn't work, we should ask His Royal Highness Prince Wen for help."

Just when Yunyin and others were preparing to go back and search with bitter faces, Yuping suddenly spoke again.

Upon hearing this, Yun Yin and the others' eyes suddenly brightened. That's right, His Royal Highness Prince Wen is the most well-informed. If they want to find someone, His Royal Highness Prince Wen will definitely be the most effective.

In fact, there was no other way, otherwise Wen Liuli would not have asked Yun Yin to find Tang Tianling.

After all, Tang Zongluan has not given his approval yet, and people at the official level cannot be mobilized. In order to control the circulation of poppies as soon as possible, we can only find ways to start from other aspects.

This thing, of course, must be controlled immediately once it is discovered, otherwise there will be endless troubles. Even without official support, we cannot sit idly by.

After hearing Yuping's words, Yunyin and others immediately took action. The others continued to look for the merchant's whereabouts, while Yunyin went to Prince Wen's Mansion alone.

"Find someone?"

Hearing Yun Yin's words, Tang Tianling frowned immediately. "Why don't you just find a vendor yourself? Why do you come to me for such a trivial matter?"

"Well, Madam said that this is a matter of great importance, and I would like to ask His Royal Highness Prince Wen for help."

"Um... okay, I'll send someone to look for it right away."

After a while, Tang Tianling twitched his lips, but since it was Wen Liuli who instructed him to do so, it must be a big deal, otherwise Wen Liuli would not have let Yun Yin come to him.

I just don't know what happened that would cause Wen Liuli to mobilize such a large force.

"Where is Princess Wu now?"

After Yun Yin left, Tang Tianling slowly asked the person behind him.

"He left half an hour ago. He should have gone to the Heavenly Prison."

"Heavenly Prison? Who else is with her?"

"There is also the Second Princess and Princess Pingyang and... the Emperor."

Hearing this, Tang Tianling's brows furrowed even deeper. How come even Grandpa Huang was involved? What on earth had happened?

"I understand. I will do as Yunyin says and fully cooperate with Yunyin and the others in their search for the person."

"Yes!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the person behind him disappeared into the study of Prince Wen's Mansion, leaving Tang Tianling standing there quietly.

"What happened?"

The more he thought about it, the more confused he became. Tang Tianling simply organized the information he had just collected on the table, hoping to find some useful clues from it.

He also thought about asking directly, but Wen Liuli and the others had already gone to the Heavenly Prison, and it might not be appropriate for him to follow them.

About twenty minutes later, Tang Tianling saw a piece of information.

"In September of the 634th year of the Eastern Emperor's calendar, a fruit appeared in the Eastern Emperor's City. It was yellow-white, smooth, slightly shiny, egg-shaped, and light and crisp. The vendor said it was a medicinal herb that could relieve pain."

Seeing this message, Tang Tianling's brows immediately frowned.

Could this be the merchant Wen Liuli is looking for?

Is there something different about this fruit?

But what could be wrong with the fruit? Even if it was poisonous, there would be no need to make such a big fuss.

What exactly does she want to do?

On the other side, Wen Liuli, Tang Zongluan and others also came to the Sky Prison. According to Tang Zongluan's instructions, the jailer found a death row prisoner who committed serial murders.

"Take this and your life will be spared!"

Seeing the death row prisoner, Tang Zongluan narrowed his eyes slightly and handed the opium he had just extracted to the prisoner. At the same time, he ordered someone to find a pipe and gave it to him.

"cigarette?"

When the death row prisoner saw the two things, he immediately frowned. He had heard of people eating the last meal before execution, but he had never heard of people smoking the last cigarette before execution.

But he also likes to smoke on weekdays, so he didn't suspect anything. The people in front of him looked rich or noble. Although he didn't know their identities, didn't they say that if I smoked this cigarette, I would be spared.

As long as it can save your life, I will take it even if it is poison.

So after hesitating for a moment, he picked up the pipe and shook the opium into it. Then the jailer stepped forward to light it for him and inhaled it in one gulp.

"Ok?"

After inhaling it, the prisoner's pupils suddenly dilated and an indescribable feeling of comfort suddenly surged into his heart, making him feel refreshed.

"What kind of cigarette is this?"

While marveling at it, the death row prisoner still did not forget to inhale it with all his strength. Gradually, he was completely immersed in it and his pupils began to dilate.

Seeing this scene, Tang Zongluan narrowed his eyes slightly. He had seen people smoking, but he had never seen anyone with such an expression after smoking.

How should I put it? Normally smoking will make you feel choking and coughing, and although it is accompanied by a sense of comfort, there will never be such a reaction.

The person in front of him obviously looked like he was in ecstasy, as if he was experiencing some happy thing in his life. He was completely immersed in it and unable to extricate himself. The jailer called him several times but he didn't respond.

"Is it really that comfortable?"

After a long time, Tang Zongluan narrowed his eyes slightly, looking a little unconvinced.

It's just a couple of puffs, but it's like you're having sex in bed.

"I don't know what it feels like, but I'm sure he's already immersed in the land of tenderness, otherwise how could he not be woken up?"

Wen Liuli had never smoked opium. She only knew that it was extremely harmful, but she didn't know what it was like to smoke it.

She didn't dare to experience it, nor did she want to experience it.

"Stop smoking!"

Hearing this, Tang Zongluan narrowed his eyes into a straight line, and then waved to the jailer.

Upon hearing this, the jailer immediately pulled the pipe out of the prisoner's hand, preventing him from smoking any further.

The death row prisoner suddenly woke up after his pipe was taken away, and his expression seemed a little unhappy.

"Didn't you say I could smoke it? Why aren't you giving it to me?"

"I let you smoke, but I didn't let you smoke to death."

"That's enough. You will be released from prison in two days. Remember, don't commit crimes again after you get out."

After all, Tang Zongluan was once an emperor, so he naturally kept his word. He waved his hand with a doubtful attitude.

He has now seen the benefits of opium, but this is not enough to make him go to great lengths to destroy it.

We have to continue observing to see if this person will become as crazy as Wen Liuli said.

"Hey, okay! Thank you, sir."

When the death row inmate heard that he could really be released from prison, his face suddenly lit up with joy. Who doesn't want to live?

"Then...sir, do you still have this cigarette?"

Tang Zongluan, who had turned around and was about to leave, was suddenly stunned after hearing this. He turned his head stiffly and took a look at the death row prisoner.

Has it started yet?

No, I think I feel very comfortable, so I am still thinking, not because I am addicted to drugs.

"Have!"

After a long time, Tang Zongluan slowly spoke.

Then he told the jailer to let him inhale some every day for the next two days. He wanted to see if this thing was really as scary as Wen Liuli said.

"Girl, you really didn't lie to me?"

After walking out of the prison, Tang Zonglun still found it hard to believe. After all, what Wen Liuli said was too shocking. Is there really such a horrible drug in the world? It can control a person's mind, make people hallucinate, and even addictive.

"Didn't Grandpa Huang see it with his own eyes?"

Wen Liuli really didn't know how to convince others at this moment, but this matter was indeed urgent.

If opium is not stopped in time, once it spreads, its harmfulness will be no less than the Black Death.

To be precise, it is even more terrifying than the Black Death. Because the Black Death is at best just a disease, at least there is medicine to cure it. But opium is different. Not only is there no medicine to cure it, but due to its chronic characteristics, if it is not controlled, it will spread very quickly.

This reminded Wen Liuli of the Opium War a hundred years ago. How many people in China were addicted to opium at that time? How many people lost their families because of it?

It can be said that China at that time was in the darkest period in history, and the cause was just this seemingly insignificant fruit.

"Well, I trust you. I will order people to search for the poppies and destroy them immediately."

After taking a deep breath, Tang Zongluan finally made a decision. He didn't know whether this decision was right or wrong, but since it was Wen Liuli who proposed it, he chose to believe it.
