Chapter 8
Lady Mingzhu left.
Su Xuan did not stop her from leaving. He guessed that the first thing she would do after going back was to try to detoxify, but some poisons are not so easy to detoxify, especially when there is no poison, wanting to find the corresponding antidote is an impossible thing to achieve.
That's right, Lady Mingzhu had never been poisoned from the beginning.
The so-called elixir was just a dose of tonic.
And the pain of Thousand Insects Devouring the Heart she felt was essentially just Su Xuan using internal Qi to urge it, giving Lady Mingzhu the illusion that she had been poisoned.
However, this incident also served as a reminder to Su Xuan.
The Tide Enchantress's attack meant that Ji Ji Wuye had already noticed him.
This is not surprising.
Ji Ji Wuye, as the master of the night curtain, claims to be the master of the night curtain of the State of Han. Once night falls, the entire State of Han will no longer belong to the King of Han, but to him... such a person with a strong desire for control will be cautious about anyone who might threaten him.
But fortunately, it was the Tide Enchantress who came, and the other party was indeed a bit reckless this time.
Without finding out the origin of the enemy, she came alone rashly.
This means that even if she suffered a loss, she could only hold it in her heart and couldn't tell anyone about it, at least, she didn't dare to tell the King of Han about it.
After all, the King of Han is not a fool. If he knew that the concubine he favored not only possessed martial arts but was also proficient in illusion, he would inevitably have many thoughts.
After the Tide Enchantress's attack, two more days passed.
Su Xuan felt that the time was almost up, so he decisively chose to come out of seclusion.
The news of him coming out of seclusion was soon learned by the King of Han.
The King of Han immediately sent someone to invite Su Xuan to meet in the Imperial Garden.
When Su Xuan brought a bottle of elixir to the Imperial Garden of the Wang Gong, he saw that the King of Han and a beautiful young girl were enjoying the flowers here.
Earlier, with the long drought and no rain, even though the flowers in the Imperial Garden were taken care of by special people and watered every day, they still appeared to have no vitality. Fortunately, a heavy rain came later, and after the heavy rain, these flowers regained their vitality, and compared to earlier, they were much more beautiful.
"Pay respects to Your Majesty!"
Su Xuan's tone was calm, neither humble nor arrogant.
"Mr. Su, you are here!" The King of Han heard Su Xuan's voice, and a faint smile couldn't help but curl up at the corner of his mouth, "Sir, coming out of seclusion this time, you must have gained a lot!"
"Living up to Your Majesty's expectations, this time of seclusion for several days, I have already refined a furnace of elixir!" As Su Xuan spoke, he took out the medicine bottle from his sleeve and handed it to the King of Han, "This elixir is called Nourishing Spirit Pill. After Your Majesty takes it, it can resolve Your Majesty's illness!"
What illness the King of Han had, Su Xuan did not say.
The King of Han himself clearly could not say it either.
However, seeing Su Xuan so confident, he couldn't bear to strike this master who could summon wind and rain, so he took it, and then, in front of Su Xuan, opened the medicine bottle. A fragrance wafted over. Just by sniffing it once, the King of Han concluded that this elixir was extraordinary.
Can it not be extraordinary? After all, it came from the hands of a master who can summon wind and rain.
However, he did not take it directly here. He prepared to go back and see again. After all, as a king, the vigilance he should have must still be there. Before taking the elixir, he must have someone test the medicine, and only after determining there is no problem will he take it.
Just after Su Xuan and the King of Han finished talking.
The young girl who had been standing beside the King of Han suddenly spoke, "I heard you can summon wind and rain? I am very curious, can you perform for me?"
The girl's words carried a bit of arrogance, and at the same time, she was also a bit curious.
Upon hearing this, the King of Han's expression changed, "Princess Honglian, how dare you be so presumptuous!"
He couldn't help but feel a bit angry.
Today is a rare parent-child time.
So he did not go to handle government affairs, nor did he go to accompany those favorite concubines, but accompanied his precious daughter to enjoy the flowers in this Imperial Garden. As a result, he didn't expect his daughter to be so ignorant.
Even if a master can summon wind and rain.
But is this kind of thing a juggling act for people to watch?
What if you offend the master?
You must know that he spent a lot of effort to win the master's favor. From the master taking the initiative to refine elixir for him, it is enough to see that the master already has a certain degree of favor for him.
This was all exchanged for ten thousand taels of gold.
Thinking of that ten thousand taels of gold, the King of Han couldn't help but feel a pang of heart ache.
After scolding Princess Honglian, the King of Han apologized to Su Xuan with a look of apology: "Sir, don't blame her. My daughter has grown up in the palace since she was young and doesn't understand the ways of the world, so she was abrupt to you!"
A smile appeared on the corner of Su Xuan's mouth, "It doesn't matter. Princess Princess Honglian saying this is just because of her innocent nature and curiosity. I naturally won't be angry with the Princess!"
Listening to her father and this man named Su Xuan talking to each other, as if she had really done something wrong, Princess Honglian couldn't help but bite her lip and feel a bit depressed.
Immediately, she heard Su Xuan say to her: "Summoning rain is clearly impossible to perform for the Princess to see!"
"However, I can borrow a gust of wind to let the Princess witness the scene of the wind blowing through a hundred flowers!"
Princess Princess Honglian's eyes lit up, "Is it really possible?"
The King of Han also looked at Su Xuan with some anticipation.
He didn't expect Su Xuan to say this, which meant, could he see the master's means again?
"Wind, come!"
Su Xuan said lightly. In an instant, between the originally calm heaven and earth, a gust of wind suddenly arose.
