Chapter 111 Knowing Everything

Ning Chen put down the jar in his hand and picked up another one.

This jar contains the kind of crystal that Nie Liang tasted.

Ning Chen lowered his voice and said: "Your Majesty, this is called Qiu Shi Dan...it is actually extracted from the urine of children."

Nie Liang's face turned pale and his stomach was churning.

He turned his head and glanced at Geng Jing, who was still retching, and felt much better. After all, what he was licking was child urine, or tempered... What Geng Jing ate was poop.

Emperor Xuan's face turned dark.

He wanted to know if the elixir he took contained these things?

But he was embarrassed to ask in front of so many people.

"Your Majesty, this is called luminous sand, which is bat excrement."

"This is moon sand, it's rabbit feces."

"This is pigeon poop. Because most pigeon poop is turned to the left, it is also called Zuopanlong."

"and this..."

Ning Chen has countless treasures.

Emperor Xuan's face became increasingly ugly, turning blue and white in turns.

"do not talk..."

Emperor Xuan couldn't listen anymore.

If the elixir he takes contains these things, it means that he has been eating shit for a long time, or all kinds of shit.

He suppressed his anger and asked, "Are these things poisonous?"

"No...these are actually medicines, but the ingredients are a bit disgusting."

Ning Chen turned around and picked up a piece of cinnabar ore, and continued: "This is the really poisonous thing. This is cinnabar ore, something that must be used to make elixirs."

"When cinnabar is burned, it turns into mercury, and when it accumulates, it turns back into cinnabar... This stuff contains mercury and other toxic substances."

"These things are gathered into elixirs. Taking them for the first time will indeed make people energetic, but in fact they are burning blood essence and overdrawing their lives!"

"If you take it for a long time, people will be poisoned and their body functions will be completely destroyed. At worst, the person will become more and more irritable and have mental disorder. At worst... he will die suddenly."

Emperor Xuan's heart suddenly sank and his face turned pale.

Father-in-law Quan was also stunned.

"Ning Chen, how did you find out that the elixir is poisonous?"

Ning Chen said: "I once told your Majesty that when I was young and begging, I met an expert and he taught me all these things."

"A few days ago, I discovered a large amount of cinnabar ore at Hu Xiucai's house outside the city. I was suspicious at that time... Because this thing was poisonous and used for alchemy, I secretly started investigating, but I never found anything. "

"To this day, when I met Master Qiu, I immediately thought whether the cinnabar in Hu Xiucai's family was prepared for the elixir... If the elixir your majesty took was mixed with cinnabar, it must be a poisonous elixir. Someone has evil intentions. I thought To murder His Majesty."

"So, I tried a little trick and got an elixir... I immediately did the experiment when I got back. It was just as I guessed, the elixir was poisonous."

"Because the matter was so serious, I immediately reported it to Lord Geng. I was also worried that the people who raised Dansi would get the news in advance and destroy the evidence, so I decided without authorization to arrest the person first and then report it to Your Majesty."

Emperor Xuan's sharp eyes fell on the Great Immortal Master.

The great immortal master's face was earth-colored, as if he were mourning his heir, and he was shivering.

"Great Immortal Master, do you have anything to say?"

The Great Immortal Master understood that if this matter was carried out, he would be dead.

"Your Majesty, you are wronged... The elixir your Majesty took was not mixed with cinnabar, so it is not poisonous..."

Ning Chen said angrily: "Great Immortal Master, you still dare to quibble after things have happened... In fact, it is not difficult to test whether the elixir is poisonous. You only need to dissolve the elixir with water and test it with a silver needle."

"If you admit it now, maybe His Majesty will be lenient with you. If you quibble, once you are found out, it won't be enough to satisfy your hatred without cutting you into pieces."

The Great Immortal Master's face was pale, his lips were trembling, and his mind was broken.

"Your Majesty, please forgive me and ask for mercy..."

Emperor Xuan's face was extremely ugly.

Ning Chen sneered in his heart, this Great Immortal Master's mentality is not good, he can't bear the slightest scare.

In fact, the silver needle tests for poison because the sulfur in the substance causes the silver needle to turn black, and many poisons do not contain sulfur, so the silver needle cannot detect it at all.

Emperor Xuan clenched his fists tightly, his finger bones turning white, showing the anger in his heart.

He didn't expect that the elixir he had been taking was actually a poison pill?

If Ning Chen hadn't been thoughtful enough to discover the cinnabar ore and secretly investigate... How could he, the emperor, die without knowing how he died?

"Ning Chen, how am I doing?"

Emperor Xuan stared at Ning Chen nervously, even his breathing stopped for a moment.

Others also looked nervous.

Ning Chen asked: "How long has your Majesty been taking this elixir?"

Emperor Xuan thought for a moment and said, "It's been five or six years."

"Did your Majesty faint for the first time yesterday?"

Emperor Xuan nodded.

Ning Chen smiled and said, "Don't worry, Your Majesty. Since this is just the first time you fainted, it proves that Your Majesty is not deeply poisoned."

"However, your Majesty has been taking it for a long time, and there will definitely be some damage to the body's functions, but there is no need to worry about it. Your Majesty is in the prime of life. As long as you use my methods, I can ensure that your Majesty lives a long life."

Emperor Xuan breathed a heavy sigh of relief.

The same goes for the others, who were so nervous that they even forgot to breathe.

Emperor Xuan asked anxiously: "Ning Chen, what method are you talking about?"

Ning Chen smiled and said, "Drink water and exercise."

"Water is the source of life and can detoxify all poisons... Your Majesty, drink more water and urinate more in the future."

"Of course, it must be combined with exercise, such as boxing and running...but you must sweat, and sweating is also a detoxification."

"In addition, let the royal doctor in the palace prescribe some detoxifying and health-preserving medicine for Your Majesty... Medicinal supplements are not as good as dietary supplements. I will prescribe a dietary supplement for Your Majesty later and let the imperial kitchen follow the prescription."

Emperor Xuan said: "Is this enough?"

Ning Chen nodded, "Your Majesty, please believe me... I am willing to use my life as a guarantee to ensure that your Majesty's dragon body is healthy and lives a long life."

A rare smile appeared on Emperor Xuan's face.

"Ning Chen, you are truly a lucky star given to me by God."

Hearing what Ning Chen said so sincerely, Emperor Xuan's heart finally fell.

"Geng Jing?"

"I'm here!"

"Let your people take all these inferior things back...what will I tell you to do later?"

Geng Jing said hurriedly: "My lord, I obey the order!"

"Nie Liang, seal everything here, close the Dan Yang Department, and send people to guard it. No one is allowed to approach without my will."

"Yes, I accept the order!"

Emperor Xuan glanced at Ning Chen and said, "Ning Chen, come with me!"

Emperor Xuan rode out in a sedan chair, with Ning Chen following beside him, all the way to the Yangxin Hall.

Emperor Xuan asked the others to retreat, leaving only Ning Chen and Eunuch Quan.

Emperor Xuan sat behind Long An and looked at Ning Chen.

Ning Chen lowered his eyebrows, stretched out his tongue, licked his lips, and whispered:

"Your Majesty, can you give me a glass of water? I have been working hard all night, and my throat is so dry that it is smoking."

The corners of Eunuch Quan's mouth twitched. Ning Chen was the first one who dared to ask for water from His Majesty... not even those princes and ministers dared.

Emperor Xuan glanced at Eunuch Quan.

Grandpa Quan understood this and went aside to make tea.

Emperor Xuan hesitated for a moment, but couldn't help but ask: "Ning Chen, are the pills I took mixed with the things you mentioned?"
