"Did the Great Zhou Dynasty choose you as an official just to let you show this face to the people? You are an official, so you can do whatever you want by taking advantage of the rules? Then tomorrow, if the Imperial Guards think there is a spy hiding in your house, can they search it indefinitely?" Looking at Minister Liu, Qin Chu wanted to punch him.
"Yes! Minister Liu is so targeted, this prince really suspects that Minister Liu is a spy sent by the Tianlei Dynasty." Zhou Yuanshuo spoke.
Minister Liu's face changed, because Zhou Yuanshuo's words were too heavy. Zhou Yuanshuo now controls the real power of the imperial capital, and the Imperial Guards and the City Guards are in his hands. If he wants to take action, then the matter will be serious.
"Qin Chu, is it convenient? If it is convenient, let everyone see it." Empress Wu looked at Qin Chu and asked, but she didn't say it firmly. She didn't know if Qin Chu was talking nonsense. If he said it firmly, it would be troublesome if he couldn't produce proof.
Qin Chu nodded, "If the Queen wants to see it, then it's convenient."
"Then take it out and let me see it. I can make you feel at ease that the beauty pill will not be leaked. If others refine it, then Li Youxiang, Liu Shilang and others will deal with it." Queen Wu spoke, and everyone present knew the meaning of her words, that is, if the recipe of the beauty pill is leaked, everyone present will be responsible.
Qin Chu took out the Qingcha fruit and exaggerated the rarity of the Qingcha fruit and its importance in the beauty pill.
"Does Liu Shilang think it is rare? If you don't think it is rare, let's make a bet. I'll give you three days. You can find it in the Dan Yao Pavilion of the Imperial Capital. If you find the Qingcha fruit, I'll give you 300,000 top-grade spirit stones. If you can't find it, you can give me 300,000 top-grade spirit stones. How about that?" After introducing the Qingcha fruit, Qin Chu looked at Liu Shilang.
At this time, Liu Shilang's face was dark. How dare he accept it? Who knows if there is this thing in the Dan Yao Pavilion of the Imperial Capital? He can take out 300,000 top-grade spirit stones, but it will make the Liu family very uncomfortable. In this situation, he can only retreat.
"Since the material is rare, it is reasonable that the price is a little higher. Let's leave it at that!" Empress Wu stood up and left the hall.
After looking down on Minister Liu, Qin Chu and Zhou Yuanshuo left the hall together.
When Qin Chu and Zhou Yuanshuo were about to get on the beast cart, Huo Luo appeared and said that Empress Wu wanted to see Qin Chu.
Nodding to Qin Chu, Zhou Yuanshuo left first. He knew that Empress Wu and Qin Chu had a good relationship.
Entering the bamboo forest in the inner courtyard of the palace, Qin Chu saw Empress Wu, who was drinking tea.
"Hello, Queen, this is a pill for you." Qin Chu took out a bottle of beauty pills and put it on the table, then pushed it in front of Queen Wu.
"Qingcha fruit... If I remember correctly, there is this kind of fruit in Liuyun Mountain. I also saw it by chance." Empress Wu looked at Qin Chu and said.
"Well, this is not the point. The point is that Queen helped Qin Chu out of trouble." Qin Chu said politely.
"It's not a big deal, but you should take it easy to earn top-grade spirit stones. You have collected more than two million spirit stones in one day. It's too much. It's probably Yuan Shuo's idea. Yuan Xing is also bold now. This may be the temperament of their Zhou family." Empress Wu sighed.
"Prince Yuan Xing can be educated. It's not wrong to say that a gentleman likes a beautiful lady. He just chose the wrong target." Qin Chu smiled. Did Zhou Yuanxing choose the wrong target? He was morally corrupt, but he couldn't say that.
"A beautiful lady is a gentleman's dream... A person with a lot of knowledge is naturally elegant. You are quite good at this, but why didn't I see what you are playing?" Empress Wu looked down on Qin Chu. Although Ling Su was a withered flower, she was also of high quality, but Qin Chu really disdained it.
"It's different. That's the same thing!" Qin Chu was embarrassed for a while. He naturally knew what Empress Wu was talking about.
"You mean, you have high aspirations! Let's not talk about this. I called you here just to tell you to be a little low-key and not to be too prominent. If you are targeted, there will be some unnecessary troubles. It won't be a big deal, but it is always annoying." Queen Wu said.
Qin Chu nodded, "I know."
"If you can listen to advice, you can go a longer way. It is necessary to earn resources, but cultivation cannot be neglected. Sit down, why are you still restrained?" Queen Zhou pointed to the teapot.
Qin Chu sat down, "What about Prince Yuanxing? He knows he is wrong, so he doesn't need to be punished."
"He is wrong... Is that a simple wrong? You don't need to plead for him!" Queen Wu waved her hand and stopped Qin Chu from talking.
Then there was a simple exchange. Queen Wu talked about some of Zhou Yuanzhen's actions. The main thing was that Ling Su was very powerful and reported some of Zhou Yuanzhen's actions to Queen Wu in a timely manner.
"Zhou Yuanzhen dreams of entering the Void Spirit Tower. In the past, he had no chance at all. This time, he got one of the quotas for external appointments. However, it is difficult to achieve great success. After all, his qualifications are limited. This is also the reason why he has never been outstanding among the princes." Empress Wu said. She was not optimistic about Zhou Yuanzhen. ..
"This guy is a guy who is good at playing tricks. You should be careful." Qin Chu thought for a while and said that he could shamelessly use women to get to the top. Zhou Yuanzhen is a real villain and must be guarded against.
"I will pay attention. By the way, the Minister Liu today is Zhou Yuanlong's man. Today, Zhou Yuanlong's concubine lost face in front of you, and then Minister Liu complained." Empress Wu nodded.
After chatting for a while, Qin Chu and Empress Wu walked in the bamboo forest and then left the palace. Qin Chu was more confident in this trip to the palace because Empress Wu supported him more and spoke very clearly.
It was a little late when Qin Chu returned to the Top-grade Pill Pavilion, but the lights were bright inside. Zhou Yuanshuo, Shi Qingfei and the old shopkeeper were all waiting!
"Is there anything wrong?" Shi Qingfei asked worriedly.
"No problem, I just asked about the situation of the Pill Pavilion. I tried to speak up for Yuan Xing, but it was useless. Empress Wu was still very angry about his affair with a good family." Qin Chu said.
Zhou Yuanshuo rubbed his hands, "So, I can't speak up either."
Qin Chu nodded, he knew it was useless to speak up.
After exchanging a few words, Qin Chu and Shi Qingfei left in a beast cart.
In the following days, the business of the Top-grade Pill Pavilion was still very good, but there was some difference compared to the first day. If it was the same as the first day, it would be against the sky.
When Qin Chu was about to go to the Pill Pavilion that day, Qi Qingqing appeared in Qin Chu's mansion.
"Husband, I'll wait for you at the Pill Pavilion." Seeing that Qi Qingqing didn't speak, Shi Qingfei knew that Qi Qingqing wanted to talk to Qin Chu alone.
"Okay, I'll come find you later." Qin Chu nodded to Shi Qingfei.
Qin Chu asked Qi Qingqing to sit down and poured a cup of tea, "Is it about the secret realm?"
"Yes, you can now! You can also rob openly in the capital of the Great Zhou Dynasty. You have made a lot of money recently, right?" Qi Qingqing stared at Qin Chu and said.
