170 The Secret of Tea

Mu Ning had just exchanged the tea cups between her and Rong Chu, and the maid serving tea to the old emperor happened to step away. The old emperor also looked up at this moment.

"What are Princess Gong whispering to Prince Gong?" The old emperor looked at Mu Ning and Rong Chu being affectionate. He felt like there was a cat's claw scratching his head, and his eyes full of red bloodshot eyes couldn't help but reveal it.

Shine a cold light.

"Returning to Brother Huang, Luan'er just resented that the tea given to her by Brother Chen was not as fragrant as Brother Emperor's tea!" Rong Chu said with a smile, his expression was as usual, and there was even indulgence and helplessness in his eyes.

"My lord, I don't dislike you, I just say that the emperor's tea is more fragrant!" Mu Ning also showed a coquettish look that seemed to be overwhelmed with embarrassment.

While covering her mouth with a handkerchief, she twitched her hand again - but was still held tightly by Prince Rong!

"Princess Gong really has a good eye. This tea comes from a thousand-year-old tea tree on Luoqing Mountain, and the total is only two or three kilograms a year!" the emperor said with a smile.

But when his eyes glanced at the tea cup on the table beside Rong Chu, his eyes suddenly flashed with brilliance.

"It's so rare, so you really need to taste it carefully!" Mu Ning's eyes lit up after hearing the old emperor's explanation. She picked up the teacup in front of her and took a sip.

Rong Chu did not drink tea, but looked at Mu Ning nervously.

After Mu Ning took a sip, she seemed to feel Rong Chu looking at her, her long eyelashes were raised, and she smiled playfully, "Your Highness, drink quickly, or I will finish the drink in a while, but I will drink from you."

That’s a cup!”

"Yes, brother, the tea doesn't taste good when it's cold!" The emperor saw that Rong Chu didn't drink tea and just kept staring at Mu Ning. He was also a little anxious, so he urged him.

"Brother, please forgive me. I have lost my temper!"

Rong Chu seemed to have just realized what he was doing, and he quickly smiled apologetically, and then looked at Mu Ning with regret, "Be careful! Don't burn it!"

Mu Ning twitched the corner of her mouth and couldn't help but glance at Rong Chu from the edge of the tea cup.

This guy really acted like one, even pretending to care about her with his eyes!

Huh, if it weren't for the worry that the poison in the tea would cause Dilin's blood poisoning to relapse, he would need her blood to detoxify it.

She would not be so kind as to drink this poisonous tea for this monster!

"Emperor brother, this Luo Qing tea is very rare!" The old emperor stared at Rong Chu. He felt nervous when he saw that Rong Chu had not drank tea.

Did Rong Chu discover something?

But the medicine he put in the tea was colorless and odorless, how could Rong Chu notice it?

But the old emperor breathed a sigh of relief immediately, because Rong Chu had already picked up the tea cup.

"Sure enough, the tea is good!" Rong Chu took a sip gracefully and showed admiration, but under his drooping eyelashes, there was a cold and sinister light shining.

"Then drink more. I will ask Wang De to give some to you, my brother, to take back later!" The old emperor laughed immediately when he saw Rong Chu finishing the cup of tea.

"Then thank you very much, Brother Huang!" Rong Chu put down the tea cup and his phoenix eyes fell on Mu Ning's face.

But when he saw that her face was a little red, he immediately tightened his grip.

Mu Ning looked back at him. She saw tension flashing across Rong Chu's eyes, and Mu Ning felt her heart skip a beat for no reason.

Because she could feel that Rong Chu was really worried about her!

Mu Ning shook her head gently and told him that she was fine.

Rong Chu knew that Mu Ning was the moon girl of the Phoenix God Clan. The moon girl's blood could cure hundreds of poisons, so she was naturally invulnerable to all poisons.

That's why he didn't stop her when she changed his tea cup.

Otherwise, even if he died of poison, he would not want her to take risks for him!

But Rong Chu couldn't hide his worry in his heart, especially when he saw Mu Ning's red cheeks, he was so nervous that he almost hugged her out immediately.

And he also secretly swore in his heart that if anything happened to Mu Ning today, he would definitely make the old emperor repay him a thousand times!

"It's okay!" Mu Ning saw Rong Chu staring at her. She was worried that the old emperor would find out about it, so she gave a rare gesture with her mouth.

She blushes because she already knows what medicine is in the tea.

Mu Ning's face was flushed.

She never expected that the old emperor would put that kind of Yang-releasing medicine into Rong Chu's tea.

In other words, it is the medicine that will make men stop lifting!

However, there is something added to this medicine to relieve yang. If you take it regularly, men will definitely not be able to do that job.

And for a man like Rong Chu who is already highly poisonous, it is a fatal toxin that triggers the onset of poison!

Thinking of this, Mu Ning couldn't help but look at the old emperor.

She really couldn't see how the thin, withered man in front of her, who looked like he was about to die, could have such a vicious heart!

At this time, the old emperor saw that Rong Chu had finished drinking the cup of tea and was in a good mood. He had been looking for topics to chat with Rong Chu.

He saw that Rong Chu was a little distracted, and the smile on his lips couldn't help but become more joyful.

Even if Rong Chu discovers something in the tea, so what?

Does he dare not to drink?

As long as Rong Chu drinks it, then he is destined to be inhumane, and he will have to endure the pain and despair of the Linxue poison who doesn't know how early it will attack!

The old emperor lowered his eyes and looked at his yellow and black withered hand that was placed on the large royal table. He seemed to still be able to feel the warm jade-like feeling in his hand when he touched Rong Chu's hand just now.

The memory drifted away in a flash, and he returned to more than ten years ago, when he saw his father leading a young man standing in front of him for the first time.

At that time, he was immediately shocked by the young man's stunning appearance.

However, his father's next words immediately sent him to hell.

The father said that the young man with peerless appearance and unruly eyes was his royal brother and the future heir of this great power.

He had worked hard for so long, but his father couldn't see it at all. Instead, he was deprived of his position as prince for such a young man with unknown origins. How could he accept this?

Therefore, while his father sent Rong Chu to the army for training, he worked hard to cultivate his own power in the imperial capital.

However, the young man's rapid rise in the military made him feel tremendous pressure.

His father began to ignore their mother and son.

If his mother hadn't overheard that his father had planned to depose the prince and establish a new emperor, how would he have the chance to sit in this supreme position today and kill and take away the lives of all the people in the world?!

Therefore, he killed his father, tampered with the imperial edict, and with the help of his uncle's family, he ascended to the position of emperor.

But that young man has grown into a powerful general in the army. He has military power and cannot be wiped out by him.

So he tried every possible means to find the strange poison in the world. He wanted to control that young man so that he would never have his own offspring!

At the same time, he kept giving Rong Chu all kinds of beauties, just to humiliate Rong Chu!

"Brother, please leave!" The old emperor was lost in memories of the past when he suddenly heard Rong Chu's voice. He looked up and saw Princess Gong pushing Rong Chu's wheelchair, and the two of them were looking at him.

"Why are you leaving now?" The old emperor kept staring at Rong Chu's face. Seeing that Rong Chu's face was a little pale, he knew in his heart that it must be the effect of the medicine.

But the old emperor pretended to be very concerned, stood up and walked towards Rong Chu.

"Your Majesty, for some reason the prince suddenly felt tight in his chest, and I forgot to bring the prince's medicine..." Mu Ning looked like she was about to cry, and stood beside the pale Rong Chu at a loss.

"Why does the emperor's brother feel that his chest is tight? I will tell you that the imperial doctor will come in and have a look!" The emperor's brother wanted to grab Rong Chu's hand again.

"Thank you, Brother Huang, for your kindness. It's just that this is an old problem. Just go back and take medicine!" Rong Chu calmly raised his hand to support his forehead.

Mu Ning also happened to reach out and hold Rong Chu's big hand at this moment, and said anxiously, "Please allow me to leave first!"

The old emperor didn't catch Rong Chu's hand, and seemed a little disappointed, but at this time he couldn't force Rong Chu to stay, so he made a concerned look and said, "Then the emperor brother, hurry back and take the medicine!"

When Rong Chu and Mu Ning disappeared from the Qianyuan Hall, the emperor's brother was still standing in front of the Daqian Gate, but at this time his eyes showed a sharpness.

"Your Majesty, didn't you say that people who have been poisoned by Lin's blood are not allowed to have close contact with women?" A woman in elegant and solemn clothes walked out from the back of the palace. It was the Queen Mother Cao.

"That's what that person said back then!" the emperor said solemnly.

"Then why can Rong Chu come into contact with Feng Jingluan?" Empress Dowager Cao's eyes were full of resentment.

From her point of view, she wished that Rong Chu and Feng Jingluan would die immediately.

The emperor was silent because he was also thinking about this issue.

For so many years, Rong Chu has never been in contact with anyone except his concubine, Mrs. Fei, who is neither male nor female, even though there are countless women in his backyard.

Logically speaking, it is impossible for Rong Chu to have contact with Feng Jingluan and not get sick!

"Come here!" The emperor frowned, his usual decadence and mediocrity swept away, and instead his eyes burst out with a fierce and cold light, "Go to Prince Gong's Mansion!"

He wanted to see if Rong Chu could really touch a woman, or if he was just pretending to be like this in front of him!



On the carriage, Rong Chu and Mu Ning sat opposite each other.

Rong Chu's complexion has returned to normal. He was just using his internal strength to give the appearance of being sick.

In silence, Mu Ning's eyes kept glancing under Rong Chu.

Rong Chu frowned, "Stupid bird, what are you looking at?"

"Ah? Oh! It's nothing, nothing!" Mu Ning was caught peeking, her pretty face turned red, she waved her hands shyly, and hurriedly looked away.

Rong Chu's eyelids twitched, and a golden stream of light suddenly flashed in the corner of his eyes. He spotted Mu Ning and put his hand on her pulse.

As soon as Mu Ning touched Rong Chu's hand, she immediately shrank, "I'm fine!"

But then she raised her eyes and asked in surprise, "Do you know medical skills?"

Rong Chu glanced sideways at Mu Ning, "I only know half of it!"

However, Rong Chu's frowning eyebrows obviously relaxed, because he had found out that Mu Ning did not show any signs of poisoning.

Although Mu Ning was suspicious of the fact that Rong Chu also knew medical skills, she didn't ask any more questions.

Because she suddenly thought of a very serious problem. It seemed that the old emperor had given Rong Chu such medicine for more than a day or two. Then Rong Chu had always been...
