Tiantang Splendid

Chapter 2840 Dan Mercury Poison
Fang Jun looked at Princess Changle, grinned, and said teasingly, "Men and women don't know each other. His Highness Changle knows how to read and behave, so he naturally abides by the etiquette."

Princess Changle also looked at him, her eyes met, and she couldn't help but blushed.

But it was from the phrase "a man and a woman can't kiss each other" that reminded me of the scene of embracing each other in Xu's Manor in the south of the Yangtze River that night...

Feeling shy and throbbing in his heart, he gave Fang Jun a hard look, ignoring him as he sat on the outermost wicker chair, tidied up his skirt, and covered his slender feet wearing clogs, so as not to be caught by some nasty people. Seniors took advantage.

Princess Gao Yang didn't notice the ambiguity between the two, and gave her husband a dissatisfied look: "Why are you talking so yin and yang..."

But because the wicker chair near Fang Jun was taken by Princess Jinyang, she had to sit between her sisters.

Looking at Wu Meiniang and Jin Shengman, who were very busy at the side, thought for a while, and said: "Before my sister-in-law's grandmother's birthday, I couldn't go because of Saburo's wedding. Just add a generous gift."

Wu Meiniang raised her head when she heard the words, nodded with a smile and said, "Thank you for your reminder, Your Highness, I will definitely not forget it."

Gao Yang paid attention and smiled, waved his hands and said: "I am also free, how can you be negligent about such things, Mei Niang? You can deal with it as you like, I will never ask again."

The most important thing for a family is harmony and harmony.

Nowadays, the second house of the Fang family is like cooking oil in a raging fire, adding icing on the cake. If it flourishes day by day, the long house will inevitably be lost.Not only is Fang Jun now Gao Juexian, who is highly valued by his father, but also the princess himself is in charge, and almost all the properties of the Fang family are controlled by Wu Meiniang, so the presence of the eldest house is really too low.

Although Fang Yizhi has a pedantic temperament and Du Shi is calm and peaceful, he doesn't care much about these false things, but people have a heart of comparison, and the second room should pay more attention to the feelings of the long room, and usually take care of and condolences. as large as possible.

Wu Meiniang looked at the gift list in front of her, and said: "From the New Year's gifts sent by the navy, my family picked some valuables such as musk, tortoiseshell, coral, etc., and added them to my sister-in-law's gift list. I don't know if it is suitable."

These items are truly priceless and first-class treasures in this era.

Fang Jun drank his tea and said casually: "You can weigh it yourself. What is suitable? Eldest brother is a strict man, a bit nerdy, and usually doesn't care much about these things. Sister-in-law will inevitably encounter some doubts in her mother's house. The gift is heavier, so it can be used as a pretense for the sister-in-law."

Comparing among the powerful families is especially fierce, comparing power, wealth, and heirs, there is nothing that cannot be compared.Fang Yizhi's personality is really weird, he usually doesn't care about his career, let alone seek contacts, he just reads blindly, and doesn't chat with his friends in the breeze and the moon, and puts on the airs of a prime minister in vain. With no power or financial resources, it is inevitable that the eldest sister-in-law, Du Shi, is a little bit embarrassed in her natal family and is ridiculed by others.

Therefore, Fang Jun not only prepares a generous gift for the elder room every year, but Fang Jun tries to make it as beautiful as possible when the elder sister-in-law's family asks for something.

Wu Meiniang said with a smile: "My family knows."

He lowered his head again, whispering to Jin Shengman, and transcribing the gift list.

Princess Changle said with emotion: "With Mei Niang taking care of these trivial matters at home, you and your wife really saved a lot of worry, otherwise, which one of these personal relationships should you not take care of?"

Wu Meiniang smiled and said: "Thank you for your praise, Your Highness, I dare not be a servant."

Princess Changle said softly: "Who dares to be you if you don't dare? Now in Chang'an city, countless children from aristocratic families are envious of the Duke of Yue. They can marry such a beautiful and intelligent person as Mrs. Wu, and there is Princess Silla with red sleeves to add fragrance... ..."

Wu Meiniang didn't dare to refute, but Princess Gao Yang couldn't help laughing and said: "What sister said, why does it sound so sour?"

Princess Changle blushed and glared at Princess Gaoyang.

Fang Jun changed the topic, and said: "My minister was summoned by His Majesty yesterday, and after resigning from His Majesty, he went to Shujing Hall to see His Highness, and we have something to discuss."

Before Princess Changle could answer, Wu Meiniang had already packed up the account books, stood up with Jin Shengman and said, "Your Majesty will discuss with His Highness, and I will go to another place to sort out the gift list."

After saying that, Lianju bowed to the princesses and walked out.

Princess Changle then went to see Fang Jun, Fang Jun thought about it, he would never avoid Wu Meiniang for anything, but the next conversation involved His Majesty Li Er, in the end it was "taboo for the venerable", in front of The princesses felt a little embarrassed in front of them, so they let Wu Meiniang and Jin Shengman go away and went to the next house.

Princess Gaoyang and Princess Changle could not help but sit up straight.

They all know that Fang Jun thinks highly of Wu Meiniang, and even avoiding Wu Meiniang must be an extremely important matter, and they dare not neglect it.

Fang Jun just took a sip of tea, looked at the three princesses and said, "Can your highnesses find out what's wrong with your majesty recently?"

The three princesses frowned suddenly, puzzled.

Princess Gao Yang said angrily: "Are you feeling itchy again? Father hasn't beaten you for a few days, so he dares to make arrangements behind his back?"

Fang Jun's face was solemn, and he said calmly: "This is what I asked, and His Highness will answer like this, don't get involved in other things."

Princess Gao Yang fell silent immediately.

Although she is a princess, Fang Jun also respects her quite a bit, but Fang Jun still dominates the relationship between the husband and wife, and he is usually chatty. Fang Jun doesn't care about her, and such a serious tone is rare. Appeared, it can be seen that the situation is bound to be serious.

After thinking about it for a long time, the three of them didn't think of anything wrong, so Princess Changle couldn't help asking: "You can say what you want, between us...you are Gao Yang's son-in-law, what else can you not say?" Woolen cloth?"

Fang Jun smiled wryly: "The problem is that this minister is only guessing."

Princess Gao Yang became more and more worried, and urged: "What are you guessing and not guessing, what are you going to say?"

Fang Jun rubbed his face, and said slowly: "I feel that... His Majesty is taking a pill."

The three princesses froze together.

Princess Jinyang didn't understand these things, so she asked curiously, "What kind of elixir?"

Fang Jun said: "It is natural to seek the elixir of longevity."

Princess Jinyang is familiar with history books, so she knows this, and said disapprovingly: "Since ancient times, there have been countless people who have sought longevity. It is not surprising even among emperors. Why should brother-in-law care?"

Taoist secret art has always been circulated among the nobles. Although Princess Jinyang is ignorant, she has also heard about it. The aristocratic family and the royal family all respect the Taoist alchemy art. There are many people who are obsessed with it. So cautious?

Facing the eyes of the three princesses, Fang Jun said after deliberation: "Because I found out that His Majesty's body has something wrong...Although it is not clear, it is very likely that it is because of taking the elixir. And As far as I know, the elixir your Majesty is taking is not made by Taoist priests, but made by foreign monks."

Princess Gao Yang raised her eyebrows immediately, and said in surprise: "The monk can also make alchemy?"

The art of elixir has always been a secret of Taoism. Only Taoists with profound practice can get a glimpse of the great way, and use it to enter the realm of heaven and man, and pursue immortality.What Buddhism pays attention to is epiphany and intensive cultivation, the six roots are clean and cut off the dust, and then the body becomes a Buddha.

It's completely irrelevant.

Fang Jun said: "A few days ago, I went to Jiucheng Palace with Your Highness to escape the summer heat, Your Highness, do you still remember?"

Princess Gao Yang nodded.

"It is in Jiucheng Palace that there is a Jinbiao gate, and there is a Taoist temple outside the gate, and there are foreign monks living here. The monk and my ministers have seen it before. They came from Tianzhu. It is said that they are proficient in the art of yin and yang. His Majesty was able to refine the secret medicine, so His Majesty hid it in the palace, but was repeatedly remonstrated by the ministers, and His Majesty was unable to do so, so he expelled it from the palace, and has since disappeared. Now it seems that His Majesty has not extinguished his desire for longevity. , but hid those monks in the Jiucheng Palace, secretly refining the elixir, and taking it from time to time."

Fang Jun's thick eyebrows were tightly frowned: "Your Majesty used to have a strong temper, but he never got angry for nothing, and he could listen to people's persuasion, but these days, he often gets angry, and he insists on going his own way, refusing to listen to any different opinions, and is prone to anger. Especially The minister has found that His Majesty's mood is extremely unstable several times, and these are the dangers of the elixir."

Princess Jinyang's face was pale, and she stretched out her slender hand to pull Fang Jun's sleeve, and said in a trembling voice: "Brother-in-law, the elixir must have hurt the dragon body of the emperor, right?"

Fang Jun was silent for a moment, then nodded slightly.

In fact, this kind of words cannot be uttered. It is treasonous to speculate on the emperor's physical condition. If you encounter a violent emperor, this alone can kill people's heads.
