Zhou Xiangyun simply said a few words, which made Shangguan Hongye's forehead show blue veins.
He suddenly slapped the case and stood up, gritting his teeth: "They were so sick that they went crazy to seek medical treatment!"
Zhou Xiangyun sighed softly: "Father is the foundation of the Zhou family. Among my brothers, except for the third brother who is a concubine, they are stable. The others cannot support the family, so mother and the others are anxious."
"How can you be so mad when you are anxious?" Shangguan Hongye's chest was heaving with anger.
He gritted his teeth and said in a cold voice: "Go and pass my king's command to Zhou Tongchen, and let the eldest lady temporarily stay in the ancestral hall to reflect, otherwise there will be no need to communicate between the two houses in the future!"
A cold smile appeared in Zhou Xiangyun's eyes: "Yes."
After saying that, Shangguan Hongye turned around and strode out: "There is no need to stay open tonight, I will go to the palace to see my father overnight!"
"Your Highness, be careful." Zhou Xiangyun stood up and sent King Qin away with a concerned look on his face.
The maid who had been with her since she was a child asked in a low voice: "Why is Your Highness so angry?"
Zhou Xiangyun put away the concerned expression on his face: "He is a man. He couldn't bear it when he heard that the Zhou family planned to use his child to make elixirs and present them to His Majesty the Emperor. His Highness the King of Qin is not a crazy person. He still has a basic conscience."
She paused and then said: "Besides, the prince is already the unofficial crown prince. How could he tolerate the Zhou family's soldiers taking dangerous measures to save their father? Once exposed, it will definitely cause a sensation in the government and the public."
If the mother clan of the future king actually does such a heartbreaking thing, it will become a huge stain on His Highness King Qin.
It may even affect his path to the throne.
His Highness the King of Qin may seem careless and fiery, but in fact he has always been a careful and tolerant person.
The maid hesitated for a while: "Concubine Concubine, do you want to tell Concubine Ming about what the Zhou family did?"
But Zhou Xiangyun shook his head: "Just let King Qin deal with the eldest lady and the others on this matter. There is no need to trouble Concubine Ming. It can be solved by fighting in the nest."
The Chinese New Year is coming, and it’s time for Concubine Ming to take a break from the thrilling life she has had this year.
...
The Alchemy Room in Qingyun Hall of the Imperial Palace
People are still adding various materials to the stove, and the sound of pounding medicine is making it extremely noisy.
However, Emperor Ming was able to sit on the soft couch and meditate in a calm manner, while Shangguan Hongye looked extremely forbearing next to him.
"Father, you cannot use that method to make elixirs. It will harm the harmony of heaven. God has the virtue of good life!"
Emperor Ming asked calmly: "Then can you find the antidote to Cang Qiao's pills now?"
Shangguan Hongye frowned: "When I come back with the army, we can capture Cang Qiao and force him to hand over the antidote. Didn't we agree?"
Emperor Ming snorted coldly: "I want more than just an antidote. I want to be immune to all poisons and live forever. Can you do that?"
Shangguan Hongye gritted his teeth: "Father, those are all nonsense. It was my aunt and cousin who came up with it to save my uncle!"
At this moment, he no longer cared about whether his words would hurt his family, but what his family did was ridiculous!
Emperor Ming finally opened his eyes and looked at him coldly: "Is it possible that I don't know what you already know?"
Shangguan Hongye was stunned: "Then why father..."
