The Journey of Immortality of the Peerless Medical Concubine

It is worth mentioning that the breakfast in this palace is not as good as that in Prince Wu's Palace. There are no milk sandwiches, no fried dough sticks or dumplings, just simple porridge, steamed buns and pickles.

But even so, Wen Liuli ate with relish, she was really hungry. As a contemporary young person, she couldn't live without meat. Although she ate a lot last night, it didn't taste good.

However, when Cuizhu saw that Wen Liuli could wolf down even porridge and steamed buns, she felt even more guilty. She immediately made a secret decision that no matter where she went in the future, she would not let her lady suffer from having to eat.

After breakfast, Wen Liuli came to Qianning Palace as usual. After a period of drug rehabilitation, Tang Zhentian's face turned pale and his eyes were bloodshot.

But he was the emperor after all, and his ability to endure was far beyond that of ordinary people. In just a few days, Tang Zhentian had regained his sanity and no longer clamored to smoke opium.

"Ari greets His Majesty!"

Seeing Tang Zhentian's expression, Wen Liuli smiled slightly. It seemed that Tang Zhentian's drug rehabilitation was very successful and he should be able to leave Qianning Palace soon.

"Well, I feel much better today. I don't think I need acupuncture anymore."

Thinking of how he had lost his temper all the time some time ago, Tang Zhentian felt bitter in his heart. How did he get addicted to opium? I have really brought shame to the royal family.

"Haha, your majesty has recovered, so there is no need for acupuncture."

Hearing this, Wen Liuli smiled, then spoke slowly.

"Come, sit down and tell me what has happened recently."

Hearing that acupuncture was not necessary, Tang Zhentian breathed a sigh of relief.

During this period of time, he had been staying in Qianning Palace, and he was in a daze. Not to mention national affairs, he didn't even know what was happening in the palace.

"The mastermind of the opium incident has been executed. It was none other than Pingnan King Ren Tiancheng. He colluded with the demons, obtained this substance from the Nine Nether Demon Realm and spread it widely. In addition to the Imperial City, many people in Zixian City were also addicted to opium..."

Hearing this, Wen Liuli nodded and slowly sat down next to Tang Zhentian, telling Tang Zhentian everything she had heard from Wu Che yesterday.

After learning the truth, Tang Zhentian almost smashed the dragon table in front of him with one fist. He didn't expect that it was Ren Tiancheng who was behind this. It turned out that the people in the demon clan were all trouble.

They can even produce something like opium. I really don’t know how many other tricks they have.

If it weren't for Wen Liuli and Tang Tianyu this time, the East Desert Country would probably have become a purgatory. Thinking of the possible consequences, Tang Zhentian couldn't help but feel scared.

He also had a new understanding of the demons in his heart. He had never seen the demons, but only knew about the existence of such a dangerous race from Tang Zongluan's narration. He did not expect that this race was so cruel.

Now it seems that Tang Tianyu was right to go south, and Ren Tiancheng really deserves to die.

"Hey, I don't know when I can go out."

Tang Zhentian felt very uncomfortable when he thought that his old father was still busy in the court because of his own affairs. Tang Zongluan abdicated because he was tired and didn't want to get involved in the affairs of the court.

He didn't expect that because of his momentary mistake, the 80-year-old man would take control of the government again. Tang Zonglun could have lived out his life in peace and contentment, but it ended up like this. He regretted it so much.

Why are you smoking for no reason?

"Haha, your majesty has recovered very well. I think he will be able to return to the court soon."

In response, Wen Liuli just smiled, the old man is still in good health.

"If Your Majesty really wants to attend court sooner, I have a solution."

"Oh? Tell me?"

Upon hearing this, Tang Zhentian's eyes immediately lit up. Why didn't you come up with a solution earlier?

Hearing his words, Wen Liuli slowly took out some candies from her arms and placed them in front of Tang Zhentian.

These candies were made by her when she was in Prince Wu's Mansion. Some have fruit flavor and some have milk flavor. She carries them with her so that she can eat a couple whenever she feels craving for them.

"If Your Majesty is poisoned in the future, perhaps you can eat some candy to suppress it. This candy is specially made by me and tastes very good. Your Majesty, please try it."

"Oh?"

Hearing this, Tang Zhentian looked at the candy that Wen Liuli threw on the table in surprise, somewhat puzzled. Is this the method you mentioned?

In fact, this is not really a solution, but for people who are trying to quit drugs, candy is indeed a good thing.

Wen Liuli's father, Wen Yuntian, used to be a heavy smoker. He would smoke more than two packs of cigarettes a day, and sometimes even three packs a day.

No one would believe that smoking like this would not cause illness, so as expected, an accident happened. When Wen Yuntian was just 40 years old, he was diagnosed with a serious lung disease. The doctor told him that if he didn't want to die early, he should quit smoking.

When Wen Yuntian was quitting smoking, he relied on eating candy, but it was not ordinary candy like this, but chewing gum.

After quitting smoking, Wen Yuntian's lung disease was also cured thanks to Wen Gongliang's mastery of traditional Chinese medicine.

However, things are not so beautiful. Although he quit smoking, Wen Yuntian fell in love with chewing gum again, and he would chew one or two pieces of gum in his mouth at any time.

As time went on, Wen Yuntian's teeth started to hurt again. Everyone said that toothache was not a disease, but it was very painful.

Obviously, even though Wen Gongliang had unparalleled medical skills, he was helpless against his toothache. Fortunately, toothache would not kill people. In order to prevent him from getting diabetes by eating too much sugar, Wen Liuli's mother replaced his chewing gum with sugar-free one. So at most he would just lose his teeth earlier than others when he got older, but it would not have much impact on his body.

Of course, this is all beside the point.

He picked up a candy with some doubt, peeled it and put it in his mouth. Tang Zhentian's eyes immediately lit up.

"Why is this candy so delicious?"

"Haha, if Your Majesty likes it, I will order someone to make some more for Your Majesty later."

"Okay! Hahahaha!"

Hearing this, Tang Zhentian nodded repeatedly. Who hasn’t eaten a few candies when they were a child?

But Wen Liuli's candy is obviously different from the ones used to coax children. It is not only sweet, but also has a milky aroma. It tastes simply amazing.

Seeing Tang Zhentian's reaction, Wen Liuli almost couldn't hold back her laughter. He looked just like a 400-month-old child. Sometimes the emperor can be quite cute too.

On the other hand, Tang Zongluan also made Ren Tiancheng's crimes public at the morning court. When the civil and military officials learned that the culprit was the King of Pingnan, they were shocked and deeply resentful.

Of course, Tang Zongluan did not mention anything about the demon clan. After all, the demon clan was a serious matter. Not to mention whether anyone believed it or not, even if everyone in the world believed it, it would only cause more panic, which would do more harm than good.

He is an emperor after all. Even if he has not been involved in state affairs for many years, Tang Zongluan still has a very good grasp of these most basic things.

"What has Princess Wu been doing lately?"

After the court session, Tang Zongluan asked Liu Chang beside him.

Ever since Tang Zongluan brought Wen Liuli to the palace, he has been busy with all kinds of affairs in the court and has no time to take care of Wen Liuli. Now that the opium issue has come to an end and other things are on track, Tang Zongluan remembered Wen Liuli.

"Reporting to the Emperor, I heard that the Princess ordered people to buy some sorghum and wine-making equipment yesterday. I think they are going to make wine."

"Oh? This girl can also make wine?"

Hearing this, Tang Zongluan raised his eyebrows and immediately became curious. He was particularly curious about the affairs of Blue Star. It seemed that Wen Liuli had countless secrets and always came up with some strange and weird things.

If she wanted to brew wine, it must be because the wine in the palace was not to her liking, otherwise she would never have the time to bother with these things.

Could it be possible that she could make some good wine?

"That is unknown, but I have heard another story."

"Oh? Tell me."

"I heard that Princess Wu was very dissatisfied with the meal prepared by the imperial kitchen last night. Her maid went to the imperial kitchen early this morning and seemed to have explained something."

"Haha, don't worry about them. I think this girl should have her own ideas. She won't suffer any loss."

Hearing this, Tang Zonglun smiled. Not to her taste? Could that girl be so picky about food?

During the time when Tang Zongluan lived in Prince Wu's Mansion, he witnessed how terrifying Wen Liuli was. There was almost nothing she was afraid to eat. She dared to put all kinds of strange meals on the table, and most importantly, they tasted delicious.

No matter how hard it is for her, it won't make her suffer.

"Yes!"

After hearing Tang Zongluan's words, Liu Chang bowed and then shut his mouth.

"Where is Nizi now?"

"He must have gone to the Qianning Palace to visit His Majesty."

"Oh, by the way, how is the emperor doing? Has he quit smoking?"

"I heard from people in Qianning Palace that His Majesty has been feeling much better these days and is no longer asking for opium."

"That's good. I'm a little tired too. It's better for me to stay out of the affairs of the court."

With a long sigh, Tang Zongluan waited for the time when Tang Zhentian would recover and release him so that he could return to his Shengqian Palace to spend his remaining years in peace.

Facing those civil and military ministers and memorials day after day gave Tang Zongluan a headache.

"Queen!"

Wen Liuli didn't sit in Qianning Palace for long before she got up and left. Just as she walked out of the gate of Qianning Palace, she saw Queen Li wandering at the door.

Seeing her pacing back and forth, Wen Liuli couldn't help but frowned and hurriedly stepped forward to say hello.

Li has been feeling a little uneasy lately. Ever since Tang Zonglun took control of the government again, the concubines in the harem have felt like the sky has fallen and are worried that their positions will be lost.

In fact, it is no wonder that they would think so, because Tang Zhentian is the emperor after all. From ancient times to the present, has there ever been an emperor under house arrest and an emperor emeritus in charge of the government?

This kind of thing, no matter who it is, would inevitably make them think too much, fearing that Tang Zonglun would want to depose the emperor. By then, Tang Zhentian's position would be lost, and naturally, the concubines in the harem would have no status at all.
