Chapter 98: The Lucky Matriarch of the Tang Family
"Hehe, what's the use of being good at alchemy? If you can't catch up with me, you'll still be blind!" Shen Ling'er turned her head and glanced at the empty spiral staircase, smiled proudly, and happily shook the silver bell on her arm.
, made a jingling sound, and prepared to turn around and leave.
"Ahem."
Suddenly, a slight cough came from her ears, which frightened Shen Ling'er, and then she turned her head sharply.
Sure enough, a young man wearing an exquisite dark red robe, with a faint wry smile on his lips, was looking at her helplessly.
"Ahem, cough, cough, Mr. Nie Yun, I just wanted to find you." Shen Ling'er's cheeks were slightly red, but she quickly put on a dignified smile.
"Of course I know." Nie Yun smiled and blinked: "If I hadn't seen you running so slowly on purpose, I would have thought you wanted to throw me away just by looking at your panicked look."
Nie Yun even deliberately added an accent to the word "deliberately".
You... you are cruel! The corners of Shen Ling'er's red mouth twitched slightly, but she forced it into a smile, and said through gritted teeth: "Haha, of course not, sir." However, she could only take out a knife.
A black stone key engraved with Jia Liu was handed over with great reluctance.
"Thank...um...thank you." Nie Yun said as he gritted his teeth and pulled the stone key out of Shen Ling'er's hand. Then, before Shen Ling'er could react, he turned around and disappeared.
At the entrance of the spiral staircase.
Hum! Shen Ling'er stomped her little feet slightly, her red lips were pursed high, and her delicate and fair face was bulging.
Just wait for me!
"Hey, who made my Ling'er so angry?" Elder Shen Dan smiled and walked up from the spiral staircase. He looked at the angry granddaughter in front of him with a curious look in his eyes. He came up from the spiral staircase, naturally
After seeing Nie Yun blowing by like the wind, and seeing his granddaughter's appearance, I knew it had something to do with Nie Yun without having to guess.
It is a rare thing for her, a granddaughter who has grown up to be a child, to suffer the loss of being mute.
"That's not all..." Shen Ling'er suddenly stopped talking, and a sly smile suddenly appeared in her smart eyes: "Grandpa, I want to learn alchemy!"
"Well, I want to learn." Elder Shen Dan waved his hand casually. It is not a simple matter for his granddaughter to learn to make alchemy... Wait, Elder Shen Dan's old eyes suddenly widened: "Ni
Son, have you finally figured it out?"
It is naturally easy for his granddaughter to learn alchemy, but to make his granddaughter want to learn alchemy... Elder Shen Dan believes that the difficulty is no less difficult than now. Immediately, immediately, another person like Nie Yun will appear.
"But, I have a request!" Shen Ling'er blinked her smart eyes and said with a smile.
"Hey, dear granddaughter, just say whatever you want!" Elder Shen Dan waved his hand, looking quite imposing.
"Hehe, I want to..."
...
"We finally came in..." Nie Yun sat cross-legged on the light blue futon given by Elder Shen Dan. He looked at the rather spacious alchemy room in front of him and couldn't help but sigh.
It's like going through five levels and killing six generals...but fortunately it's over.
Nie Yun took another deep breath of the slightly sultry breath that came from the alchemy room. After being slightly intoxicated for a moment, he finally took out the ice demon with a bang.
"I'm going to have a great time practicing it today!" Nie Yun smiled slightly, and while his right hand was tumbling, red earth fire surged out, like a fire dragon devouring the herbs one after another.
Just a moment later, a light cyan rejuvenation pill appeared on the ice demon's side.

central.
"Hey, it feels so comfortable to make alchemy alone." Nie Yun curled his lips and put it into the jade bottle, and the flames in the cauldron slowly rose again.
...
There is no snow or cloud tonight. The crescent moon hanging high in the sky is trying its best to spread its brilliance and cover the earth with a layer of silver gauze. But that curved corner is destined to be impossible, or even very difficult.
Catch the world's attention in the brightly lit Kyoto.
The periphery of the capital city is brightly lit and the gongs and drums are noisy, and there is still a strong feeling of the New Year.
But in the center, the city within the city had long been dark, with only the room in the center glowing with bright candlelight.
His Majesty the Emperor still sat high in front of the Imperial Case, holding a red pen and lowering his head, silently reviewing the memorial in his hand.
The candlelight flickered and the figures danced.
I don't know how long this quiet scene had passed, but it was suddenly interrupted.
"What have you found?" the stalwart figure sitting in front of the imperial desk suddenly asked, and under the imperial desk, a figure wearing a red-bottomed fish-dragon suit appeared at some point.
"This case involves Sheng Guang. Your Majesty, please review it personally." Lu Bingzhi bowed, took out a piece of yellow paper that had been prepared long ago from his wide sleeve robe, and raised it high above his head with both hands.
"Oh?" His Majesty the Emperor's mouth slightly curved, and with a slight move of his right hand, the yellow paper suddenly fell into his palm as if it had wings. His voice was faintly smiling: "Even Lu Aiqing wouldn't dare.
Frankly speaking, I am really curious."
The words that were meant to be full of smiles made Lu Bingzhi's scalp tingle for a moment. After opening his mouth slightly, he finally did not open his mouth to defend himself. He buried his head lower and quietly waited for His Majesty the Emperor with a smile on his face.
After reading the yellow paper in my hand.
After a while, His Majesty the Emperor gently put down the yellow paper in his hand, with a smile on his face: "Isn't it just a Qian family involved? It's not as extensive as you said."
The head of the Qian family, Qian Youde, Doctor Qian, is a serious official, and his disciples are deeply intertwined and involved. Not just the Qian family... I am afraid that in the whole world, he is the only one who can do it.
This is what he said.
When Lu Bingzhi heard this, the cold sweat on his head instantly rinsed off.
It is the sword in the hands of His Majesty the Emperor. After making the sword for a long time, it is natural that he has a little understanding of the owner's intention, especially the most sensitive part of the weapon...the killing intention.
"Please give instructions, Your Majesty." Lu Bingzhi buried his head deeper.
"I don't want to see the name on this piece of paper a second time." His Majesty the Emperor waved his right hand lightly, and the yellow paper floated slowly until it landed directly under Lu Bingzhi's bowed head. You can read the name on it.
’s clear.
A drop of cold sweat quietly ran across Lu Bingzhi's forehead, passed through his cheek, and finally landed on the yellow paper directly below, staining a dark water stain.
"I obey." Lu Bingzhi bowed and quickly picked up the yellow paper on the ground. Since His Majesty has given the order, he no longer needs to think about the intricate relationships between the characters on it. It is enough to do the duty of a sword.
.
Even if the name on that piece of yellow paper even has the legitimate son of that first-class official...
"Not much is known about Xiaoxue's affairs in the university hall. Please handle this matter slowly and don't be too hasty." His Majesty the Emperor once again immersed himself in handling the memorial and said calmly.
"I understand." Lu Bingzhi nodded slightly. He certainly knew what His Majesty meant when he said there was no need to rush.
It is not about letting the people on the yellow paper list live a few more days, but it is about not doing things too rough.
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
The so-called roughness means that the methods they used to find out the person behind this incident are extremely shady, so that these so-called "evidences" cannot be put on the surface at all.
Rather than being rough, that is to say, there must be a reasonable reason for the death of the people on their list!
And that's exactly what he's good at!
"Your Majesty, I have one more thing to report." Lu Bingzhi bowed and continued: "The secret agent of the Yulong Guard has reported that at noon today, the Tang family's mistress sent people to arrest the Tang family's bastard, and wanted to use the bastard to replace the legitimate son and be exiled."
"This woman is quite courageous. Just watch and deal with it." His Majesty the Emperor chuckled and shook his head, not taking it to heart.
"But the Tang family's mistress didn't succeed." A wry smile appeared on Lu Bingzhi's face. If she was really replaced, it would be easy. He could just bring someone to the door. But this dignified Tang family's mistress actually didn't even have a bastard.
I couldn't catch him, so I could only watch my own parents and children being exiled. What a...good luck.
That's right, just good luck.
Lu Bingzhi was even sure that the Tang Dali Temple Minister did not know about this matter, because he knew that it would be impossible to hide such a thing from the Yulong Guard.
, anyway, this is the one thing that can be pinched. As long as you listen to His Majesty honestly, the Dali Temple Minister will still be as stable as Mount Tai.
But the premise is to listen to His Majesty...
So when he learned that this was an exile ordered by His Majesty, he didn't even try to call friends and run around, let alone make such a stupid move that could be called bullying.
You must know that even Doctor Qian, a serious official of the first rank, tried his best to cover up the matter, but he could not hide it for a day even if the Yulong Guards carefully investigated it, let alone him, a little minister of Dali Temple?
"Oh?" His Majesty the Emperor's tone rose slightly, and he said lightly while reviewing the memorial in his hand: "Did that concubine find out in advance?"
"Replying to Your Majesty, there is no such thing, but the bastard of the Tang family just happened to meet his classmate in the university hall." Lu Bingzhi paused slightly, and then said: "Your Majesty also knows that classmate, and is a friend of His Royal Highness the Princess. We only met for a few minutes.
Time, eight realms of rebirth, and five stages of body perfection, they all fell down, and they were all alive, so we found the mistress of the Tang family with almost no effort."
"Nie Yun?" His Majesty the Emperor raised his head slightly, recalling the silent figure in white sitting in the corner last night, with an interesting smile in his eyes.
Nie Yun... Lu Bingzhi felt the interest in His Majesty the Emperor's tone, his thoughts were changing, he cupped his hands and continued: "After that, Nie Yun went to the Alchemist Association again after helping the bastard of the Tang family, and got
Recommended by Elder Zemu, he has now passed the examination and became the elder of the Alchemist Association."
In fact, there was no need to tell His Majesty this trivial matter, but seeing that His Majesty seemed to be interested in this young man, Lu Bingzhi mentioned it.
"Well, you are an outstanding young man." His Majesty the Emperor nodded slightly, his tone returning to calmness again.
excellent!
Lu Bingzhi's pupils shrank slightly. Perhaps His Majesty is too talented. Those who can be praised by him are already elites. And he has followed His Majesty in front of him for more than 20 years, and this is the first time he has heard this.
Your Majesty uses "excellent" to describe a young man, even if that Nie Yun is indeed excellent...
"Then what should Dali Temple Minister do?" Lu Binzhi calmed down his mind slightly and said in a deep voice again.
