Chapter 24

"Yes." In front of Ji Wuye, a man in black feathered clothes responded in a deep voice: "Yes, according to the letter sent back by Lady Tide Enchantress, this pill was refined by that person. The formula is unique, and the medicinal effect is magical. Since the King took it, many hidden illnesses in his body seem to have been cured... During this period, he has been energetic, far exceeding the past, just like..."

He paused and said the statement given by the Tide Enchantress, "... twenty years younger!"

A sharp light flashed in Ji Wuye's eyes.

"In that case, it is truly a world-class divine medicine!"

"The King having the help of such a strange person is truly the blessing of my State of Han!"

Ji Wuye congratulated the Han Wang verbally, but in his heart, he felt deep dread.

He regretted more than once that he had misjudged the situation.

If he had known that the person who accepted the reward would be so formidable, he shouldn't have brought him to the King that day.

It was mainly because he had encountered several scammers before that person, so he subconsciously looked down on this person. Now that he thinks about it, that person showed strange signs from the beginning.

For example, when others accepted the King's reward, they would tear off the edict posted on the city wall with their hands, but that person, with a wave of his hand, summoned the edict on the city wall into his hand.

The ability to take objects from a distance is not impossible for a master to do.

But only a master can do it.

Even without the ability to summon wind and rain or refine pills and make medicine, based on the methods that person displayed, he was an out-and-out master and could have been recruited for his own use instead of sending him into the palace.

As for not having this person summon wind and rain to resolve the drought?

Ji Wuye didn't care.

Under the drought, how many crops were lost and how many people died had nothing to do with him. Anyway, he could still stay in the mansion eating iced fruits, still be his Great General, and enjoy the service of beauties.

Those who died were just those lowly people.

Unfortunately, it was too late to regret now.

That person had already entered the palace and received the King's favor.

If it were just summoning wind and rain, that would be fine; the world is full of wonders, and there are always some strange people. But the pill refining and medicine making ability he showed later really made Ji Wuye dread him.

The Tide Enchantress herself is well-versed in pharmacology and medicine making. Since she said this pill is so magical, it must be true.

A Han Wang who is old, has many hidden illnesses in his body, and may die at any time is what Ji Wuye wants.

It is precisely because the Han Wang is weak and lacks energy that he needs him, the Great General, to help him handle state affairs. At the same time, for Ji Wuye, he wishes the Han Wang would die of illness.

Only when the Han Wang dies can the Crown Prince succeed to the throne.

The current Han Wang, although he relies heavily on him, Ji Wuye can see that this is just the Han Wang's balancing act.

If he really relied on him in every way, he wouldn't secretly support the Chancellor Zhang Kaidi in the court.

Of course, compared to Zhang Kaidi, he is still more valued by the Han Wang.

And the Han Wang's regard is different from the Crown Prince's. The Crown Prince was cultivated by Ji Wuye himself, and his attitude towards him is respect. In addition, the Crown Prince has a weak personality and has no opinions on things.

If the Crown Prince ascends the throne, he will definitely consult him on everything. That is when his power will reach its peak.

After taking the elixir, the Han Wang became twenty years younger, which is not a good thing.

"Su Xuan..." Ji Wuye couldn't help but whisper this name.

"Great General, should we?" The man in black in front of Ji Wuye couldn't help but ask after hearing Ji Wuye's whisper.

Ji Wuye knew what he meant.

His eyes flickered, and he said in a deep voice: "Let him go for now. This person has extraordinary methods and possesses strange skills. Let's see if he can be recruited for our own use. If he refuses to be used by me, it won't be too late to take action!"

"Yes!"

Ji Wuye asked again: "In the Tide Enchantress's letter, did she only mention this pill and nothing else?"

The man in black shook his head.

Ji Wuye's expression froze again, and in his heart, he couldn't help but feel some dissatisfaction with the Tide Enchantress.

Good, Bai Yifei is not here, and even you are disobeying me.

The order I gave you was clearly to test that person. If possible, plant a Gu insect in the other party. Even if the other party is not happy to be used by them, they will have to be controlled by them due to the Gu poison.

For Ji Wuye, the so-called testing was just a polite remark; what he really wanted was the latter.

Directly make that person named Su Xuan his dog.

Even if his methods are brilliant and he is unruly, so what?

When that person's life is in his hands, he will still obediently be used by him.

"Send a letter to the Tide Enchantress, tell her to keep a close eye on that person. If that person has any new movements, send a letter at any time!"

Ji Wuye said another sentence to the man in front of him.

The man in front of him received the order and soon went to send the letter obediently.

Lady Mingzhu soon received Ji Wuye's letter.

She also saw Ji Wuye's dissatisfaction from the letter.

But even if she is dissatisfied, what can she do?

She would like to plant a Gu insect in Su Xuan and make Su Xuan controlled by her.

But she can't do it.

Not only can she not do it, but on the contrary, Su Xuan poisoned her, and now she is controlled by Su Xuan instead.

While responding to Ji Wuye's letter, indicating that she knew.

On the other hand, she brought some precious medicinal materials and quietly went to Su Xuan's place.

She knew that Su Xuan was addicted to refining pills, and the Han Wang sent Su Xuan many precious medicinal materials. However, the Han Wang's medicinal materials were not actually the most precious.

Because she was also well-versed in medicine, a large part of the many precious medicinal materials sent into the palace were intercepted by her.

Now, she took some of the valuable ones and prepared to use them as gifts to apologize to Su Xuan. ===== CHAPTER 26 =====
