Peerless Pirates

After coming out of Xizhai, Song Zheng was still confused. Among the six departments, although the Ministry of Rites ranks first, its actual authority is far less than that of the Ministry of Personnel and the Ministry of Hube. Teacher Cang's career is full of reading. Needless to say, the Ministry of Personnel is in charge of the official title. Later generations

Calling the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel the Official of Heaven shows the distinction.

Quantity matters. The Ministry of Households is in charge of the money bag, so it is naturally very rich. The Ministry of Etiquette is in charge of imperial examinations and ceremonies, plus diplomacy, and religious affairs. It seems to have a lot in charge, but there is not much real stuff. The little emperor

It is indeed a bit strange to put it in the Ministry of Etiquette.

What Song Zheng was wondering about was that his relationship with the little emperor was already extremely close, and he had even done the dust cleaning for him. Under such circumstances, the little emperor still did not disclose the reason, which shows how important the little emperor's task was.

.

After coming out of the imperial city, Song Zheng rode on his horse, feeling a little excited. If Huang Jiao could agree to serve as the Right Secretary Supervisor, he would use all means to put Dark Eagle in order. It would be best if he could dig out Huang Yuandu's secrets.

Some secrets, add a little weight to your hands, and prepare to overthrow Huang Yuandu in the future.

Of course, whether he can take up this position depends on Huang Jiao's wishes. Huang Jiao was extremely angry about Jingchen's death and ordered Tong Bing, the deputy commander of the imperial army, to take the case from Jiangning Mansion and investigate the matter personally. However,

The subjects of the investigation are the Imperial Guards responsible for guarding Jingchen. They have been imprisoned, and it will take several heads to fill the crime of dereliction of duty.

What surprised Song Zheng was that Hu Qiang also told him that Jingchen had multiple whip wounds on his body. Although they were all flesh wounds, they were shocking. Song Zheng didn't believe that Hun Taoist would whip Jing Chen out of boredom, and he didn't have that

Time to torture him. It seems that the whip wounds on Jingchen’s body must have been inflicted in the Queen Mother’s Palace.

Huang Jiao is so elegant and good-looking, which makes people admire her with admiration. The life in this world is hard enough, and Huang Jiao's appearance is not that easy. Song Zheng thought with some evil thoughts, would that old bald donkey with a clean body be able to

It was because he couldn't bear Huang Jiao's abuse, so he gave up his life to take his own life.

After Jingchen was killed, Huang Jiao ordered the imperial army to send more people to guard Hongjue Temple, and also sent an imperial doctor to diagnose and treat Di Fei, an old bald donkey who fell ill. Although Song Zheng didn't know whether Di Fei was really too sad, he fell ill.

I can't afford it, but getting rid of Jingchen is equivalent to cutting off one of Difei's arms, which is very satisfying.

When Song Zheng was slandering Di Fei, Di Fei was sitting by the bed in Hongjue Temple's bedroom, playing with a dark thing in his hand. The thing felt hard but had a smooth feeling.

Di Fei was not wearing a monk's robe, only a white underwear, and his face was neither happy nor sad. Although it was not his usual rosy appearance, it was far less bedridden than the rumors outside said.

Opposite him, an old man with a goatee was sitting on a chair, drinking tea as if nothing had happened. The old man was dressed in the official uniform of an imperial physician, with a slender appearance and a rather immortal air.

Di Fei put the thing in his hand under his nose and smelled it. A special smell penetrated his nose. After looking at it for a while, Di Fei said slowly, "Mr. Xi, you took the risk to come here just to give this piece of aphrodisiac."

?”

The old man chuckled softly, "As expected, the doctor knows about this thing. When the Duke heard that you were seriously ill, he specially ordered me to bring a piece of fine aphrodisiac for you to enjoy. This thing can dispel wind and dampness, calm the mind, and has endless magical effects. This is

Grand Duke's fee

It took a lot of effort to get it. The master must not let down the prince's heart. As for taking risks, there is no need for the master to worry about it. Outsiders know that you are too sad. I, the imperial doctor, come here for a visit. How can anyone doubt it?

What."

Di Fei rewrapped the opium in his hand and placed it beside the bed, "Fan asked Imperial Physician Xi to go back and report to the Duke. I thanked him for his kindness."

"Seeing that the Master's face looks good, it seems that this thing is no longer needed." Dr. Xi took another sip of tea unhurriedly.

Di Fei's face showed a sarcastic expression, "What? The Duke still feels sorry for a piece of aphrodisiac?"

"That's not true. Although this aphrodisiac is a good thing and is more expensive than gold, it is nothing compared to the friendship between me and Master!" Imperial Physician Xi waved his hand, "I will leave this piece with Master.

Bian, maybe I will get it next."

Di Fei narrowed his eyes and immediately sneered, "I have been practicing for many years and am also familiar with the art of orpiment. Although this aphrodisiac is a good thing, it can also harm people."

Doctor Xi's expression changed, "Master, what do you mean by this? Does it mean that I want to harm you?"

"Why should Imperial Physician Xi ask questions knowingly? Although the true efficacy of afurong is rarely heard in the Central Plains, it is nothing new to Lao Na. If afurong is used frequently, it will become addictive, easy to be in a trance, and suffer from

People control the cute baby, and I help mommy catch the president in the latest chapter."

The trainee imperial doctor's face was ugly, and Di Fei was slightly rosy. "Afurong was originally planted on another continent in the far west. The locals called it the medicine for forgetting sorrow. After passing through Persia, the food spread eastward. During the reign of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty,

, Zhang Qian traveled to the Western Regions and brought back a lotus.

Hua Tuo, the miracle doctor of the Three Kingdoms, also used it to treat diseases. However, this plant was rarely cultivated in the Central Plains, so it was unknown. In the Tang Dynasty, the great cannibals also brought this plant to the Central Plains, and named it Afurong at that time. Previous

During the Song Dynasty, the plant was renamed poppy and considered a treasure."

Di Fei said another word, and Imperial Physician Xi's face became uglier, but Di Fei had no intention of shutting up.

"Afurong has been a precious medicinal material throughout the ages. It was also the same when I was in Daliao. However, Lao Na is a direct descendant of Emperor Tianzuo. He grew up in the northwest since childhood, which is what you call Hu Si W'er.

Xiliao. There are many connections with the west, and it is very important to Afu.

There is also a lot of knowledge about hibiscus. Although it is difficult to plant a large amount of this plant due to the drought and lack of rain there, its efficacy is well understood. This hibiscus is indeed a holy medicine for curing diseases, but it can also be regarded as a poison. There is a saying in the Central Plains, called '

That's what it means."

Di Fei tapped the piece of aphrodisiac with his fingers, "The weird thing about this thing is that it can make people addicted without knowing it, and eventually it is difficult to extricate themselves. When you realize this, it is often too late. For example,

Although arsenic can also be used as medicine, if the amount is too much, it will definitely cause death. This arsenic is just a kind of chronic arsenic."

Having said this, Di Fei suddenly stood up, turned his gaze to Imperial Physician Xi, glared at him sternly, and said sternly, "The Duke asked you to bring this thing. Are you dissatisfied with me?"

Doctor Xi was so frightened that he waved his hand quickly, "What are you talking about, Master? The Duke has no such intention! He is just afraid that Master will be too sad, so he came here to calm your nerves."

Di Fei sneered, his eyes burning.

Imperial Physician Xi felt uncomfortable, so he stood up and said slowly, "Master, don't worry too much. In the Chinese Pharmacopoeia of all dynasties, this substance is used as a good medicine for treating diseases, and there is no saying that it is poisonous. Master also knows that this substance is a good medicine."

There are very few of them in Daqi, and I have never heard of it being a chronic poison."

Di Fei remained silent and stared at Dr. Xi, making Dr. Xi sweat on his forehead.

After a while, Di Fei suddenly smiled and said, "Doctor Xi, don't panic. I also know that the Duke of Guo has good intentions. I would also like to ask Doctor Xi to go back and report to the Duke of Guo. I understand this."

Imperial Physician Xi was embarrassed and annoyed, and Di Fei obviously saw what he meant. If he really didn't know the poison of afurong, he should have shown surprise instead of being panicked like now. It's just that the poisonous aphrodisiac was too

It's too serious. Once the incident behind it is exposed, it won't be an exaggeration to destroy the nine tribes.

Di Fei sat on the bed again, crossed his legs, closed his eyes, and recited Buddhist scriptures secretly. Doctor Xi was neither standing nor sitting, and was stunned for a moment.

"Mr. Xi, sit down. Your Majesty sent you here in person. Isn't it just to give you something like this?"

Di Fei changed the topic, and Imperial Physician Xi breathed a sigh of relief, and said with a respectful expression, "Master Jingchen unfortunately suffered an accident, and there are many doubts. The Duke asked me to ask, does Master Jingchen have any clues about this matter?"

"Mei Mu?" Di Fei sneered, "I have confirmed that Jingchen was harmed by others. The old Taoist priest broke the neck of Jingchen, who was very skilled in martial arts, in a speeding carriage, without leaving a trace. What can he do?

How many old Taoist priests can there be at this point? I am afraid there is no one except the Hun Taoist who is famous in the martial arts world."

Imperial Physician Xi was astonished, "Hurt man? Who is that?"

"Emperor Xi has been in the palace and the Duke's Mansion for a long time, so it's no wonder he doesn't know this person. Even the Duke probably doesn't know much about martial arts. This man is from the Quanzhen Sect and has superb kung fu, ranking among the top five masters in the world.

1. He likes to drink and wanders around. He seems to be ignorant, but he is the most unfathomable among the five masters."

Imperial Physician Xi asked in confusion, "Why would he take action against Master Jingchen? Could it be that you are in charge of the Academy and have offended the Quanzhen Sect?"

"I don't know, I didn't let anyone focus on dealing with the Quanzhen Sect." Di Fei shook his head, "The Quanzhen Sect has become very popular in the Jin Kingdom in the past two years. Maybe the royal family who was employed by the Jin Kingdom came to see me.

Unlucky, Hongjue Temple is heavily guarded, so they attacked Jingchen."

"Then how does the Master plan to avenge Jingchen and deal with the Quanzhen Sect?"

"Does Dr. Xi think I have the ability to do this now?" Di Fei snorted coldly, "You know what's going on in the Neolithic Academy. I'm just training a group of monk soldiers in my name. Not to mention that I haven't confirmed that that person is a Hun Taoist.

, even if it is confirmed, I am hampered by the constraints in the Neo-Confucian Academy, and it will be difficult for me to attack the Quanzhen Sect. Besides,

The Queen Mother would not allow this. You see, although she was furious, she also concluded that the incident was an accident. She only traced the imperial guards and did not order a strict investigation of the old Taoist. Not only that, she also quickly ordered Jingchen to be buried.

I'm afraid that people will know about the whip wounds on Jingchen's body. I'm afraid those wounds can't be explained by a stumble."

Imperial Physician Xi said helplessly, "Master Jingchen has suffered some, but the Queen Mother has just shown some signs and has not yet been completely controlled. Without Jingchen, I am afraid it will be difficult to influence the Queen Mother. Unless..."

"Unless what?"

Dr. Xi paused slightly, "Unless the doctor and the Queen Mother are closer."

Di Fei took a deep breath, opened her eyes and said, "Is this the idea that the Duke gave me?"

"The Duke of Guo also knows that doing this will make things difficult for the master, but it is indeed a good idea. Of course, the Duke of Guo also found two people with giant yin, who are quite smart. The Duke of Guo has already asked them to stay elsewhere.

He is ordained in a monastery and studies Buddhist scriptures. The master can also take him under his disciples as a substitute for purification."

Di Fei thought about it for a while, and soon his face relaxed, "Huang Jiao is not Zhao Ji (the mother of Qin Shihuang), nor is she Wu Zetian who dotes on Zhang Yizhi's three brothers, and we don't have much time, we can only take two years. Therefore, we need to work on both sides!"

"Oh? How to do both?"

"In the past two days, you have sent over the two people the Duke of Guo has been looking for. This is one of them. The second one fell on him." Having said this, Di Fei glanced at the piece of aphrodisiac.
