Zongwu: I, the strongest alchemist, the auction of the heavens

Chapter 19 The elixir is completed!

Zhu Wusi suddenly came to a confession, which really made Zhu Houzhao unable to handle it.
The brain is in turmoil.

It is impossible to tell which of Zhu Wusi's words are true and which are false.

I wanted to call Cao Zhengchun.

But when I think about it carefully, I feel that it is not appropriate.

It’s better to find out the reason first, and then it’s not too late to call for external help!

After all, Cao Zhengchun is not a peaceful guy.

Although Zhu Houzhao was young, he was the legitimate emperor after all.

I have been influenced by it since I was a child.

He has quite a bit of experience in how to wield the 'Emperor's Sword'.

A big part of the reason why Cao Zhengchun was able to dominate the government was because he was fanning the flames.

The purpose is to check and balance Zhu Wusi and Liushenmen.

Forming a three-legged situation!
Too bad, good idea.

In actual operation, it lacks a lot of skills.

A three-way balance of power was established, but Cao Zhengchun had also lost control.

If Cao Zhengchun had never thought of rebellion.

Even if there was a land immortal in the palace, Zhu Houzhao would have been killed long ago.

The old eunuch was not guarding him all the time.

Most of the time, they are in seclusion.

……

Zhu Houzhao thought for a moment, then stood up and walked around the table, saying, "Uncle, let's take a walk together."

This means putting aside the identities of emperor and minister, and having a conversation with Zhu Wusi as uncle and nephew.

Zhu Wusi naturally would not refuse.

The two of them dismissed their attendants and walked in silence in the imperial garden.

When passing by a rockery, Zhu Houzhao smiled and said: "I remember when I was a child, I especially liked climbing high places, and every time I had to ask my uncle to carry me up."

Zhu Wusi smiled faintly: "Now, don't you still like to climb high? It's just that you don't need my help anymore."

Zhu Houzhao remained silent.

After a moment, he said seriously: "It is still necessary! My nephew can't stand alone!"

"Alas!~"

Zhu Wusi sighed and said slowly: "As long as you stand up, someone will naturally help you stand firm."

Before that, he still wanted to continue helping Zhu Houzhao stabilize the government.

But now, he has the idea of ​​retiring.

Instead of engaging in intrigues with others in the court, it is better to travel around the world with Su Xin.

Go to places you have been before and see scenery you have never seen.

Isn't it beautiful?

Zhu Houzhao did not dwell on this topic.

Both sides fell silent again.

After walking for a while, Zhu Houzhao suddenly asked, "Why did the emperor's uncle change his mind?"

Zhu Wusi looked thoughtful and replied carefully: "There are many reasons. First, I don't want to implicate your aunt. It's rare for her to wake up, and I don't want her to sleep again."

"You love the country, or you love the beauty more?"

Zhu Houzhao was also a carefree person.

At a time like this, he actually still had the mood to tease Zhu Wusi.

Zhu Wusi smiled nonchalantly: "That's about right."

"That's one factor. The second is that a senior who didn't want to see the people suffer advised me to give up the rebellion."

"Of course, that senior was just trying to dissuade us. He himself would never interfere in the affairs of the imperial court."

Zhu Houzhao heard this, stroked his chin, and murmured, "He cares about the people, does not interfere in the affairs of the court, and is respected as a senior by the emperor's uncle. Could he be the one on Mount Wudang?"

Zhu Wusi nodded slightly, a look of relief appearing in his eyes.

This eldest nephew has been smart and quick-witted since he was young.

If the late emperor had not passed away too early, he would not have been able to teach me much about how to be a king.

I think he will be a wise ruler whose name will go down in history!
Not like now.

Not only did the imperial power fall into the hands of others, but his own hobbies also made him despised by the world!

"The above two points can only be regarded as inducements. What really made me give up the idea of ​​rebellion was a...

Zhu Wusi frowned and thought for a while: "How should I put it? He is a strange man, proficient in divination!"

In the end, he still did not tell Zhu Houzhao about Chu Beixuan and the chat group.

He knew his nephew too well and knew what kind of person he was.

Once they know about the chat group, they will definitely investigate it regardless of the consequences.

I will never turn back unless I suffer enough. "That strange man not only calculated that I was planning a rebellion, but he also calculated that your aunt and I would definitely die in that rebellion!"

……

After a heart-to-heart conversation, Zhu Houzhao still had some doubts.

But I also tried to believe Zhu Wushi once.

Therefore, he pretended not to hear Zhu Wusi's request to retire.

No important task was given to him at that time.

Maybe I want to observe for a while.

Zhu Wusi was not in a hurry.

During this time, he can take care of some final things.

So as not to cause him trouble in the future.

The uncle and nephew chatted for a while.

Zhu Wusi looked at the sky and didn't want Su Xin to wait for him for too long, so he bowed and took his leave.

He just left here.

Everything that happened in the palace reached Cao Zhengchun's ears.

……

East Factory.

Cao Zhengchun waved away the messenger, frowned, and muttered to himself: "Zhu Wusi wanted to usurp the throne, but finally gave up?"

When he heard the news, he didn't believe a word of it.

He thought his men were playing tricks on him.

However, after asking the questions to several people, the results were always the same.

"Not only did your majesty not pursue the matter, but it seems... he trusts him even more?"

Cao Zhengchun's eyes flickered, and he smiled coldly: "That won't do!"

"A country has its own laws, and a family has its own rules. Even if one has only thought of treason but has not put it into action, he must still be severely punished to serve as a warning to others!"

He didn't intend to ignore Zhu.

After all, even the emperor didn't pursue the matter.

He was just looking for trouble and deliberately trying to disgust Zhu Wusi!

Who made the two fight for so many years?

Finding fault with Zhu Wusi has almost become his habit.

If you don't find fault for a period of time, you will feel uncomfortable all over!

……

Beixuan Yaju.

After Chu Beixuan met the requirements of his customers, he once again immersed himself in alchemy.

Now, he is 90% confident in refining the Soul Pill.

Just simulate it one or two more times and you can officially refine it!
“Points are such a good thing!”

Thanks to the large amount of points he had received recently, he would simulate alchemy 3-5 times every day.

It greatly shortens the time it takes to make the elixir.

Although, even without the Soul Spirit Pill, he could still rely on his points to break through to the middle stage of Qi Refining and Spirit Transformation.

There are really too many points that can be consumed.

I'm somewhat reluctant.

Anyway, the elixir can also help to break through, and Chu Beixuan doesn’t mind this little time.

There is absolutely no need to waste points.

Time flies.

Another three days passed.

This day.

An invisible ripple, carrying bursts of faint fragrance, spread out from Beixuan Yaju.

Wherever it passed, all the birds and beasts fell into coma!

Inside the house.

Chu Beixuan held a pill in his hand and examined it carefully.

This pill is quite strange.

The body of the pill looks like colorful glass, but it has a faint silver glow.

Soul Pill!
It has the effect of stabilizing the soul and enhancing consciousness.

It is considered to be a very difficult type of second-grade pill to refine.

call! ~
Chu Beixuan breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that there was no problem with the pill.

Immediately, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he whispered to himself: "I can finally break through to the middle stage of Qi Refining and Spirit Transformation!"
