days of being forced

After finishing this matter, Gu Xingzhi put it aside for the time being, and he should start to do another thing that he had planned for a long time.

That's what it means to be a national teacher.

He had been in the capital for a long time, and the emperor was already terminally ill. Originally, the other party would only seek Taoist priests to make alchemy when he was old, but now it was a few years earlier due to physical reasons. It should be time.

But if you want to become a national teacher, you can't just rely on his partner Yu Gonggong's words. Although the emperor is looking for a Taoist priest to make alchemy, the other party is not a completely irrational person. This is what Lin Yuan told him before. The emperor's temperament in history is consistent.The emperor hoped for alchemy, but subconsciously he didn't dare to believe too much in these things. He knew that most of them were useless, but he refused to give up.

Indulgent and reserved, always maintaining a certain degree.As for the alchemy priests in the imperial palace, although their status is not low, they are not considered transcendent, even inferior to the prince who has a little face.

And what Gu Xingzhi has to do is to build up his reputation in alchemy and make some authentic works, preferably to directly sit on the position of the national teacher.

As for what to do, Gu Xingzhi had already figured it out in his mind. He hadn't done this before, because he was afraid that the big tree would attract the wind and not protect the whole family.It's different now, just his disciples, including powerful families in the imperial court, martial arts sects, rich businessmen, etc., no one would be willing to oppose him.

Not to mention that the emperor will definitely try his best to protect his family in the future.

But having said that, no one really can't take it too hard to offend a person who has excellent medical skills and can even bring the dead back to life, especially if this person is vicious and not unknown.

One month later, the Ningzhi Pill and Juxiang Pill launched by Xunxiang Pavilion completely detonated the whole country of Chen.Half a month ago, a lady in Beijing found that there was an extra beauty elixir on the top shelf of Xunxiang Pavilion. The price was so high that no one cared about it.

Based on her trust in the items sold in Xunxiang Pavilion and the fact that her family was not short of money, the lady thought that since this item was so expensive, it would definitely be of some use, so she simply bought it.

After I got home, I thought about the precautions that the clerk said, what kind of medicine is prepared to use a bucket of hot water to take a shower after taking it, and it may be painful after taking it.The young lady who heard it felt a little uneasy, but fortunately, the clerk repeatedly emphasized that this thing is harmless to the body, and she also knows who opened this store.

Thinking of the former son of the Hou family who is now radiant, whiter than snow, and unparalleled in beauty, she overcame the fear in her heart.

Anyway, if something goes wrong, someone can be found.

So at night, she called for hot water, ordered the serving maids to retreat, and then ate the Congealing Fat Pill.Ms. Chen didn't want to tell anyone about the tragedy after that. The clerk only asked her to prepare hot water for a bath, so why didn't she tell her to find a basin to poop and pee!

Thinking of the uncontrollable spewing out, plus the black and greasy stuff all over his body, which smelled like a stink, just thinking about it broke his heart.

However, she did not dare to trouble the clerk. After all, this question probably exposed her problem at the time, and spread the word whether she wanted to be a human again! The joy of having delicate, smooth and fair skin.

But in just one day, the story of Ms. Chen spread among the girls and brothers in the whole capital. She didn't hide the reason, and she couldn't hide it either.As a result, the Xunxiang Pavilion opened by Jiang Ning exploded in business in an instant, and the high price could not stop the women in Beijing from wanting to be beautiful.

This kind of elixir that can regenerate people has caused great controversy.

In addition to these, people have also begun to pay attention to another product in Xunxiang Pavilion, Juxiang Pills.This pill has a variety of scents, and after taking it, the body will have this faint scent for a month, which is very popular.

Gu Xingzhi looked at the newspapers he bought. During this time, these newspapers were all reporting on these things, but these things may not be enough. The focus should be shifted to the treatment of diseases and detoxification.But this is also a head start.

Knowing the wide coverage of the newspaper, Gu Xingzhi directly advertised in the newspaper, welcome everyone who has difficult and miscellaneous diseases that cannot be cured to bring all kinds of rare medicinal materials to the doctor, and he will die if others can cure him, and then emphasized If the consultation fee is not rich enough, he will die.

He limited that only medicinal materials can be used as consultation money, but real gold and silver are not rare. His shop makes money from these things every day, and they are of little use to cultivation.Good medicinal materials are hidden in the homes of great aristocratic families, martial arts masters, etc. These cannot be bought with money.

He has also passed the stage of relying on quantity to increase his cultivation base. These cheap medicinal materials can't form much medicinal aura during the refining process.

It's a pity to eat tasteless and discard it.

Xunxiang Pavilion not only sells skin care products, but also sells hemostatic pills, detoxification pills and other martial arts people's needs. Many people in Jianghu know it well.

Gu Xingzhi's announcement really attracted people. The medicine he made had a strong effect, but he deliberately restrained himself a little. The effect was so good that it would not be good for him to deceive the emperor in the future.After a few people were cured, with the demonstration of the previous people, more and more people came one by one.

After more than half a year, his reputation as a medical saint in the world has also begun to resound.

And with Gu Xingzhi's prestige in the Jianghu rising day by day, the voice of the crown prince in charge of the country and presiding over the Spring Festival on behalf of the emperor became louder and louder.The emperor's condition became more serious.

The marriage between the crown prince and Jiang Man has also been settled. After all, Marquis Yong'an can't give the crown prince much help. The crown prince's concubine falls to the mansion of the general with military power, and Jiang Man is the side concubine.However, it seems that the prince has different feelings for Jiang Man, and he likes it very much.

In a month, they will be married.

And the Gu family also had a familiar guest, Yu Dahai and Yu Gonggong.

"You came."

Yu Dahai asked: "The medicine you..."

Gu Xingzhi took out a small bottle and threw it to Yu Dahai, "Eat one every night, it will gradually change, and it should be almost the same after half a year."

Yu Dahai tightly held the bottle in his palm, his heart was beating wildly, and his face was flushed. There was only one thought in his mind, that he could have a future! Gu Xingzhi didn't care about his expression, he knew it a long time ago, Like the mortals in his frontier continent, this world has such an unusually persistent pursuit of his own bloodline and family succession.

This medicine was just one of the conditions that he and Yu Dahai had negotiated at the beginning, and the other was the antidote to the poison in the other party's body. He had already given this to him, but Yu Dahai was afraid of the royal family finding out, so he didn't dare to use it.

One must know that his martial arts are powerful, but the royal family needs other people in the dark. It is rumored that the highest martial arts in the palace are members of the royal family, so he dare not run away.Moreover, he had to help Gu Xingzhi with affairs, but fortunately, if Gu Xingzhi finally succeeded, then he would be free.

It took a while for Yu Dahai to react, and he also explained his reason for coming to Gu Xingzhi: "Now the Holy Majesty is looking for Taoist priests to make alchemy everywhere, but the Taoist priests in the palace don't work, and they are making the Holy Majesty's body worse and worse. , Yesterday, the Holy Master Long Yan was furious, he pushed those Taoist priests out and beheaded them."

"Now I'm here to find another person for the Holy One."

Gu Xingzhi nodded. In the past half a year, Yu Dahai had been a traitor. He knew that the emperor was very powerless in the face of the impatient battle of the princes below, and he was extremely unwilling in his heart.The time is almost here.

After telling Jiang Ning where he was going, Gu Xingzhi followed Yu Haihai into the palace.

Because Gu Xingzhi is different from ordinary Taoist priests, his prestige in the Jianghu is not comparable to that of ordinary people. To put it bluntly, the emperor can't command people with famous martial arts in the Jianghu.After Yu Dahai took him to the side room and waited, he went to see the emperor.

After listening to Yu Dahai's introduction, the emperor indeed summoned Gu Xingzhi.

Gu Xingzhi entered the emperor's bedroom, without saluting, he looked at the emperor calmly.The ambitious emperor in his early years lowered his head, breathed heavily, and looked at him with cloudy eyes: "Are you a Taoist priest?" Yu Dahai told him about this person's background.

Gu Xingzhi said: "I'm not a Taoist priest, I'm a cultivator of immortality."

Since he is a teacher of the state, of course the identity of a cultivator is more suitable.

The emperor laughed back angrily at his outrageous words. Could it be that these people from the rivers and lakes came to provoke him?But his movements were too difficult, and when he wanted to laugh, the corners of his mouth twitched. Thinking of the other party's identity as a medical saint, he endured it and asked, "What do you want?"

Such a straightforward question made Gu Xingzhi stunned. He thought they would have to talk for a while to see his skills.But he quickly came back to his senses, with the same calm expression on his face: "I will save you, and I will add another 20 years to your life, and you will let me be the national teacher."

"20 years of life." The emperor repeated in a low voice.

He didn't believe this, but said: "As long as you can save me, you can be a national teacher if you want." Anyway, as long as you are the emperor, the power is still in the hands of the Chen family, and it doesn't matter if you have a national teacher or not. Influence, and the power of the national teacher naturally depends on the emperor.

This court is not so easy to gain a firm foothold casually.

It has to be said that Gu Xingzhi was surprised that the emperor agreed to his request so easily. Since the other party was so decisive, he was not a sloppy person, and said directly: "Okay, you issue an imperial edict. I will treat you to a doctor."

The emperor Chen Yan signaled to his father-in-law to grind the inkstone, supported his body and wrote down the will. Anyway, this is a miracle doctor praised by everyone in the world. He has cured so many incurable injuries, so it is worth him to try.

His princes are busy fighting for power, he can no longer go to court, and even the people in the palace are starting to feel restless, so he can only fight for himself.

After writing the imperial decree, Chen Yan showed the imperial decree to Gu Xingzhi, while he leaned back on the chair and panted weakly. This kind of energy that life is about to come to an end is really uncomfortable. He really doesn't want to die, he clearly I know this.

Gu Xingzhi looked at the imperial decree, it was well written, and he handed it to Eunuch Yu casually, he couldn't just yell about the decree by himself.

Then he sat aside, took his pulse, and confirmed the state of the emperor's body. Well, the inside is completely exhausted, and it seems that he can't live for a few days. It's not just the medicine he asked Eunuch Yu to give, his medicine is not so Heavy, there are others dealing with the emperor.

And more than one, several types of poisons combined, the medicine he gave slows down for a period of time, which is really interesting.But this is different from what Lin Yuan said that the other party has several years of good life in history.

Gu Xingzhi was well prepared when he came, and now facing the emperor's expectant and nervous eyes, he can calmly take out the medicine: "It seems that you have been working for a few days."

Chen Yan's face darkened, and he was about to faint, a huge pain weighed on his heart.

"However..." Why is the emperor so unreasonable all of a sudden?Don't get angry before he's finished speaking?

He didn't know that Chen Yan suddenly lost everything and was trapped in the harem, seeing his resentment, powerlessness and unwillingness to see his good sons and concubines showing their magical powers.

This only made Chen Yan breathe a sigh of relief. With his father-in-law's support and caress, he managed to breathe normally again: "Just tell me if you can save it."

Since he was not in good health, Chen Yan couldn't help being irritable when he heard these twists and turns that couldn't get around the real center of gravity.

Gu Xingzhi didn't make things difficult for him: "But it can still be cured. It's very easy."
