When radium was first discovered, many people believed it to be a elixir that could prolong life because of its ability to glow. Many businesses even added it to milk powder, cosmetics, skin care products, and health supplements, and promoted it extensively.
As a result, a wealthy businessman drank radium water every day. He drank more than 1,400 bottles in four years and successfully sent himself to see God.
When Xie Ying told this story to Xie Xiu and Tu Jiaojiao, she made a slight modification, changing the last "see God" to "go to the Western Heaven."
By the way, he also gave them some scientific knowledge about the heavy metals in the elixir. Xie Xiu and Tu Jiaojiao felt their scalps tingle and got goose bumps all over their bodies.
"This radiation is too terrible!" Tu Jiaojiao suddenly had the urge to throw the night pearl away, and even couldn't help complaining to Emperor Taihe in her heart: Why not give something else as a reward, but actually give such a harmful thing!
Xie Ying, however, looked at Xie Xiu with a burning gaze: [Daddy, please write a storybook! I've thought of the story, listen to me and tell you...]
Xie Xiu and Tu Jiaojiao: "..."
What are you so excited about?
When Yang Xiu woke up, he found himself lying in a carriage.
The car was going a bit fast, and the bumpy ride made him dizzy and uncomfortable.
He looked around warily and saw Li Changshi sitting next to him, so he struggled to get up. However, his whole body was limp and he couldn't muster any strength. He struggled for a long time, but to no avail.
It was Li Changshi who came over and helped him sit up, then gave him a cushion to lean on.
"Your Highness, are you awake? Are you feeling unwell?"
As Li Changshi spoke, he poured Yang Xiu a glass of water to moisten his throat.
Yang Xiu was feeling extremely thirsty, so he quickly took the cup and drank it all. Then he said with a wry smile, "I have been demoted to a commoner now, and I am no longer a highness. Li Changshi, please don't call me by the wrong name. If someone hears it, it will become my fault again."
Li Changshi immediately said sternly, "Your Highness, there's no need to be so cautious. We're on the carriage back to Gusu now, and there are no outsiders around. Furthermore, in my heart, you will always be my Highness, the heir designated by the prince."
Although Yang Xiu knew that Li Changshi was probably just saying nice things to coax him, he still found his words very pleasant to the ear.
There was a hint of a smile on his face, but his complexion was still very pale.
"After what I've been through, I've become a bit overly cautious. I hope you won't blame me, Li Changshi."
When Yang Xiu finished speaking, the smile on his face became a little bitter again.
Li Changshi immediately consoled him, "Your Highness is right to be cautious, and after such a setback, it's truly remarkable that you've been able to bounce back so quickly. Your Highness is the Prince's chosen heir, so don't underestimate yourself."
His expression was very sincere, and the praise made Yang Xiu feel more at ease, and his originally uneasy heart calmed down.
Li Changshi then asked, "Your Highness, have you ever met that Eunuch Luo?"
When Yang Xiu thought of Luo Zheng, his expression changed instantly.
Li Changshi couldn't help but become more curious, secretly suspecting that Yang Xiu's meeting with Luo Zheng was not a pleasant one.
Yang Xiu said with a gloomy face: "I did see someone in the past who looked very similar to this Luo Zheng. I suspect that he was Luo Yunsheng back then!"
Li Changshi frowned, somewhat puzzled: "This Luo Yunsheng...does he have a grudge against His Highness?"
He had already thought about it carefully, but unfortunately he had no impression of the name Luo Yunsheng, so he could only ask Yang Xiu.
Yang Xiu raised the corner of his mouth sarcastically: "I didn't have any grudge against him, but my father sent people to kill his entire family."
Li Changshi's face changed drastically: "How could this be? This is such a big thing, and this humble official has no recollection of it!"
"My father secretly sent someone to do this, so it's no surprise that Li Changshi didn't know about it."
Yang Xiu looked at Li Changshi and smiled meaningfully. "After all, you know my father's character well. He has always been suspicious and would never let anyone know all his secrets."
