Chapter 40 Undercurrent

"Your Highness, the merchants in Jingzhou who are in contact with us all say that the golden basin has quit. It will take at least ten days before the merchants arrive in Runan, and at most it will last until the end of this month... Your Highness?"

Chen Cheyun personally poured the powder made from scopolamine flowers into a golden bottle, and drank it down in one gulp along with the wine.

The scopolamine flower phlegm fascinates the heart orifices, blinds its gods, and confuses its seeing and hearing.It is the most important flavor in the prescription of Wuhuansan. With the addition of appropriate amount of poisons with stun effect such as Datura and Chuanwu, it is transformed into Wuhuan after special processing.

Wu Huan measures a small amount of joy, but if the amount is large, it will be like a stroke. After a long time, Wu Huan will become addicted. Speaking of the foreign tribes' invasion so smoothly, the seven kings' internal struggle is of course the main reason, but during the reign of Emperor Min Anxi, Wu Huan Among the people and even in the imperial court, it is seriously rampant, and the combat effectiveness of the army is greatly reduced by soldiers taking drugs. This is one of the reasons that cannot be avoided.After learning from the pain, King Langya's eyes were like a torch. As soon as he came to power, he strictly prohibited anyone from taking Wuhuan. From the court down to the common people, they were rewarded for reporting the poison. Over the past few years, people's attitude towards Wuhuan has changed from love to hatred. In just a few months, Wuhuan's interest chain was cut off, and it is basically invisible now.

Only a few people know that today's younger brother Yu and Wang Chen Cheyun still hold the last profit chain of Wuhuan, and even he himself is a drug addict.

Li Xiong is the treasurer of Baixianglou Mingmian, and one of the counselors of King Yuhe. Who would have thought that such a great talent would be relegated to a restaurant in Runan County when he recovered the military sacrificial wine in the army of Runan? The only Wuhuan business chain in the entire Daliang is in the hands of this man with a few strands of white hair caught in his black hair?

With his hands behind his back, he paced back and forth hundreds of times, cursing in bits and pieces: "What to do...those damned street gangsters! City executioners! If you don't want to cooperate well, you won't do it! How did you flatter me back then? Those who came up now that their pockets are full of money, they cross the river and demolish bridges, what a villain does!"

Compared to Li Xiong, Chen Cheyun seemed much calmer. After drinking the scopolamine, he was feverish and weak, and collapsed on the table like ooze, his cheeks were flushed, he seemed to be laughing with pleasure, and trembling in pain choked up.

Chen Cheyun has been addicted to Wuhuan drugs since December last year. Li Xiong is no stranger to this. In the past, he would withdraw wisely and not listen to Yuhe Wang's delirious whispers, but not today. Baixianglou is an open business , Wuhuan is a forbidden product. It can be traded secretly in various places under the shade of the big tree Yuhe Wang, so I dare not store too much. Now the purchase channel is cut off by my own people. Seeing that Baixianglou is about to become a In Wuweilou, Li Xiong almost became an ant in a hot pot.

The candlelight was blown by the wind, and the private room of Tianzihao, which was as bright as day, flickered on and off. No one knew what the customers of this private room were doing here all day, even Li Xiong didn't know.

Li Xiong moved his lips, wanting to speak earnestly again, but he heard the person on the case chanting in a daze: "I swear to live and die with...Runan County, I swear to live and die with...Runan County."

The objects in front of Chen Cheyun were all distorted, only the candle flame was still the same candle flame, the rough pottery bowls collided together, spilling hops, the flickering candle flame, two shadows floating on the wall, the ever-clear face embedded in the The marrow oath.

The white smoke from the incense burner surrounded Chen Cheyun, like countless hands from the underworld, dragging him into a dream.

Li Xiong had no choice but to quit.

After an hour, the prostitute Bubushenglian with a lyre in her arms opened the door and approached the private room where Chen Cheyun was. In the middle of the table on the wall, curled up into a group of sleeping man, the man's brows were tightly knit into a knot.

She didn't dare to call him out, the noise of walking on tiptoe might wake him up, the prostitute sat beside the man, put the lyre in her lap on her lap, and began to play.

Chen Cheyun's brows gradually relaxed as the sound of the piano played peacefully, but the woman's face was already full of tears.

Early in the morning, Cen Li blocked the door and repeated: "You are not allowed to go out!"

Cen Li had just woken up, his clothes were still loose and exposed half of his shoulders, he looked like a dog, blocking the only exit of the room, Wang got up earlier than him, and had already packed it up, he couldn't laugh or cry: "Your Highness, don't dislike me for being picky, just go Just buy a bowl of wontons to eat.” Stop by or take a detour to see a doctor.

Yesterday, I saw the ability of the Hu people to eat meat and drink heavily. Every meal cannot be separated from wine and meat, but Wang Bing only needs a bowl of porridge and a side dish to be satisfied.At dinner yesterday, Mo Wankong dragged everyone to clean up the dust for His Royal Highness, and Wang’s illness also went away in order not to be special, and in the end he was doomed. He was given a lot of alcohol, and he starved for two months with Ting Wei’s prison He didn't get any good medical treatment during the journey, and he turned over on the bed all night with abdominal pain like pancakes. He didn't want to wake up and see strong alcohol and fat meat on the table again, and the heartbroken pain would be endless. up.

Wang Bing didn't have the ability to confront Cen Li, so he could only joke: "His Royal Highness, if you are worried, ask someone to follow, and I expect you to ask someone who knows the way to lead me out of Qi Mansion."

Cen Li closed the door forcefully.

Snapped!

"I'll ask them to buy whatever you want, and the doctor will also invite you to go and lie down."

"..."

One must suffer and be wronged by others, power is really a good weapon, it can subdue people invisibly, even if the king is sick and full of money, there is nowhere to use it.

Mo Wankong had already prepared breakfast, so he came to invite Cen Li to have a meal in person, but Cen Li refused on the grounds that he didn't get enough sleep last night and wanted to continue to sleep in. Mo Wankong had a bad nose early in the morning, and disappeared after breakfast .

The servant who ran the errands came in with two bowls of wontons. Cen Li had been starving for a long time, so he started to eat right away. Wang Bing chewed and ate it slowly for a while, and felt that there was something hot filling his abdomen, and the pain eased a lot. .

The two people who had a full stomach were walking in the corridor of the Qi Mansion. Wang Bing's suggestion was to discuss with Mo Wankong about the portrait, but they didn't know that the two went to the front hall and Mo Wankong had already left earlier.The portraits were still flying all over the city, and Cen Li couldn't leave the mansion, so the two wandered around the Qi mansion.

"As for the portrait, I suspect that Lin Yi did it." The last time he was nervous, he didn't appreciate the Qi Mansion, and wandered around. Once again, Wang Bing sincerely felt the luxury of the Qi Mansion. The scale and details were no less than Lang Ya Wang's mansion.

Cen Li spat: "It really lingers!"

"This is just my guess." When he was in Shanyin, Wang Bing felt that Lin Yi was unusual to Cen Li, and he couldn't find the right time to ask, but Cen Li didn't seem to take Lin Yi seriously at all, and left Shanyin didn't say a word about Ji Dong's pursuit of him.Wang Bing never felt that he had the right to ask about Cen Li's privacy. This matter seemed to be over like this. He did not expect that two months later in Runan County, the portrait incident would be repeated!

The two unknowingly walked to the back garden of Qi Mansion, a few birds stopped on the rockery and chirped non-stop, Wang Bing passed by and still held his head up and screamed, it was Cen Li's turn to pass by and chirp his wings, leaving a few bird feathers.

Cen Li: "..."

Wang Bing thought deeply, didn't notice this trivial matter, and continued: "When Lin Yi was not in Yuanping, he stayed in Runan County all year round to visit mountains and rivers. I heard this when I was in Dongguan. Nagging in my ear..." Wang Bing was startled suddenly, thinking that Luoyang city was broken last year, Zhong Shujian refused Chongyan's solicitation, and hanged himself.

Cen Li turned his head to look at him, Wang Bing's face was ugly as if he had been punched, his lips trembled indistinctly, and the tone of the beginning changed, and Cen Li could tell at a glance that he was changing the subject abruptly: "... Yuan Pinghou has no official position, His Majesty has always been very laissez-faire with him, it is not surprising that he will appear in Runan County when he travels around all the year round, so regarding the portrait, I think Yuan Pinghou is the most suspicious."

However, Wang Bing only got stuck for a moment, and soon returned to his usual tone: "I think you can tell me what is the force you are most afraid of offending in Runan County. I have not asked about world affairs for more than a year. Even now you I don't know whose head the crown of the prefect of Nanjun belongs to."

From the fall of Luoyang in February last year to the current May, Wang Bing has almost always fled because of his well-known identity as "the son of a traitor". Every time he lives in a city, he can hear righteous insults just when he goes to the street to buy vegetables. He knows that Knowing that everything is inevitable, he can only do his best to avoid the crowd and move to the deep mountains and old forests, but he is human after all, and there is not everything in the deep mountains. Occasionally when he goes down the mountain and hears those voices, he can only feel numb. Get used to it, desperately get used to the feeling that is more painful than a real shot through the heart.

Cen Li put his hands behind his head, glanced away, and said indifferently, "Then you know a lot about Liu Pi."

It makes sense to know Lin Yi, as long as you stay in a small county like Shanyin for a day, you can even know how many birds there are in the Lin Mansion. In addition, Lin Yi is also a model of a celebrity, a model, and a gentleman. According to what Wang Bing said before, in his Dong Guan reads a lot of books and knows the world's affairs without leaving home. It is impossible that he has not heard of it. He knows a lot and it is justified.But what about Liu Pi?Liu Pi rose to fame only after following Chen Huainan to found the country after Anxi's disaster, and Wang Bing knew him so well that he knew his fighting methods like the back of his hand.

"He used to be my second uncle's staff member. After all, I only met with Prime Minister Wang a few times, because it was Liu Pi who really showed his face outside. He often traveled to Luoyang Jiankang to help the late emperor and the prime minister communicate with each other. I met him a few times in Luoyang and talked about the art of war once, and my father said that he will not be inferior to others, and he will have great achievements in the future."

"Well, he is indeed a formidable person. I may not be able to shoot arrows with him. Follow me!" Cen Li caught a glimpse of a maidservant behind the rockery with folded clothes floating past, and hurriedly pulled Wang Bing's sleeve to follow.

The servant girl was quite calm when she saw Cen Li, and continued to work after calling him "His Royal Highness the Prince", allowing Cen Li to follow her in a fair manner.

Wang Bing thought to himself: You must not be in spring.

"Don't get me wrong, you will know when you come with me, and I will tell you about the forces that dare not offend."
