Chapter 1046: Talent
The refining records were taken.
Pure Yang Zhenren read them carefully; at first, his expression was calm. As he read to the end, his expression became increasingly solemn, and his brows were slightly furrowed.
"Is there a problem?" Chen Guanlou asked softly.
Pure Yang Zhenren closed the records and said, "The same pill formula, without permission, the weight of the medicinal materials was increased. This is truly unreasonable! Inferior disciple!"
"Will there be bad consequences?"
"Not really. But, such intense medicinal power, sigh, it's not appropriate!"
"Is there a way to save it?"
"Return to the source!" Pure Yang Zhenren said firmly. "The mistake must be corrected! Having an inferior disciple at home, I let Jiang Jiang Yucheng Chen see a joke."
"No matter! I also heard a few words of discussion from others, and I was a bit worried, so I came up the mountain to ask. You also know that every move in the palace involves a wide range of things. Many people are watching the palace, and His Majesty's abnormalities have long since fallen into the eyes of those with intentions. It is not hard to guess that the pills offered by your Yuquan Palace have problems. Take advantage of the fact that nothing has happened yet and correct it as soon as possible to avoid disaster!"
Chen Guanlou was by no means alarmist.
Even Xie Gechen had started to have crooked thoughts, wanting to start from Yuquan Palace, and others naturally would have this idea too.
If left alone, Yuquan Palace would inevitably become the target of public criticism, and even become a victim of political struggle, becoming cannon fodder. This was also one of the reasons why he was willing to take this deal.
He had a bit of incense friendship with Yuquan Palace, so naturally he couldn't watch Yuquan Palace be buried with them. If it could be corrected in time, it could also avoid a disaster.
Pure Yang Zhenren had dealt with two generations of emperors, and he was clear about the stakes involved.
He was also furious.
He couldn't care about Chen Guanlou and decisively summoned his disciples for a meeting.
Chen Guanlou took the opportunity to say goodbye and leave.
The purpose had been achieved, and the various things behind it did not need to be stated clearly. Pure Yang Zhenren had his own considerations for the stakes involved.
Soon, news was received in the palace that the refining furnace in Yuquan Palace had exploded. The original pill formula had flaws and needed time to improve. If possible, offer pills according to the old pill formula.
Emperor Jian Shi was very dissatisfied. "Not early, not late, but it exploded the furnace at this time, and the pill formula has problems again."
"Your Majesty, should we summon the imperial physician? Yuquan Palace's pill formula has flaws; if it causes harm to Your Majesty's body, Yuquan Palace's crime is unforgivable!" Wang Defa looked furious, looking worried for his master.
"Proclaim!" Emperor Jian Shi nodded immediately.
The Emperor was more afraid of death than anyone else, and more afraid of his body having problems than anyone else.
Soon, the imperial physicians stationed at the traveling palace were all summoned to the Qingliang Hall to diagnose and treat Emperor Jian Shi.
After a consultation by several imperial physicians, the conclusion was reached that the Emperor's body was as good as it could be, healthy everywhere, with no hidden illnesses.
"Really?"
"Just a bit of internal heat! Perhaps it's because of the hot weather."
Upon hearing this, Emperor Jian Shi didn't take it to heart. Learning that his body was healthy, he laughed loudly, feeling incomparably happy.
"Yuquan Palace still has merit! Tell Yuquan Palace to continue refining pills. The old pill formula is the old pill formula; it's just that the effect is a bit worse."
Wang Defa accepted the order and quietly waved his hand, and immediately a little eunuch accepted the order to leave the palace and go to Yuquan Palace to proclaim the holy will!
What was originally thought to be a very difficult matter was handled so easily.
After Xie Gechen learned of the movement at the traveling palace, he was stunned for a moment. "So fast?"
"The news from the traveling palace has been confirmed. His Majesty's golden words are final, allowing Yuquan Palace to resume using the old pill formula. According to understanding, in fact, the so-called new pill formula and old pill formula are one pill formula. The difference is only in the dosage of medicinal materials. Using the old pill formula, the dosage of medicinal materials is reduced, and the effect is weakened. Lord, this matter is done!"
Xie Gechen laughed, sighing: "Talent!"
He was really curious about what method Chen Guanlou used to persuade Yuquan Palace, and the matter was handled so smoothly. Sure enough, he was a talent.
If it were anyone else handling this matter, it would be absolutely impossible to be so smooth, and it would only be full of twists and turns.
What is this called?
As long as you find the right person, you get twice the result with half the effort.
Finding the right person—it can be seen how important it is!
"Send another generous gift to Chen Guanlou!"
"Lord, are you sure you still want to send it?"
"Send it! This official originally thought the matter was tricky, but once the other party came forward, it was done in a few days. With this ability, there will definitely be times to ask him for help in the future. Send a generous gift over and get the relationship right. In addition, tell the steward that in the future, for festivals, prepare a portion for Chen Guanlou as well, send it every year, and don't miss a single time."
"Lord, is it necessary to go to this extent?"
Still want to send festival gifts?
Those who could be remembered by the Xie residence and have festival gifts sent every year without fail were either family friends, powerful officials in the court, or imperial relatives.
Chen Guanlou, a mere Ninth Rank, a mere Jiang Jiang Yucheng of the Heavenly Prison, a mere clansman of the Hou Fu—what virtue and ability did he have to make his own master remember him to this extent, and even require sending a festival gift every year?
This... was a bit exaggerated.
"Of course it's necessary! Do you think Chen Guanlou is similar to other talented scholars from poor families? Giving a little sweetness is enough. You are wrong! Chen Guanlou is completely different from other talented people; ten talented people can't compare to him alone. Ten talented people couldn't solve the pill problem, and couldn't persuade Yuquan Palace. But he can! He just took a trip and stayed in Yuquan Palace for less than an hour, and he solved a big trouble for this official. With this ability, no matter how much this official values him, it's not too much. What are you still stunned for? Hurry up and do it!"
"Yes!"
Xie Gechen was indeed a person who did big things; this decisiveness, this eye for people, not stingy with money, easily defeated ninety-nine percent of people.
Decisive people might be greedy for money or lack an eye for people.
Those with an eye for people might lack decisiveness in doing things, being indecisive.
Those who are generous with money might lack an eye for people, always failing to recognize people and suffering losses everywhere.
In short, there are very few people in the world who satisfy all three conditions.
Chen Guanlou sat at home, and the gift was sent to his door.
Looking at the gift list, a long string of valuable gifts, he blinked and asked the steward who sent the gift, "Is the matter done?"
"I am only responsible for sending the gift; I know nothing else."
Chen Guanlou raised his eyebrows and smiled. "Your Left Prime Minister is indeed generous. Forget it, seeing his sincere feelings, I will accept this gift. Go back and tell your Left Prime Minister: before the end of the year, as long as nothing happens, I will definitely destroy it before New Year's Eve!"
The steward didn't understand and looked confused, clearly not understanding!
Chen Guanlou told the other party, "You don't need to know what it means. Just tell your Left Prime Minister truthfully."
He was talking about the letter of commitment.
The dog Emperor, his temper was unpredictable.
The matter was done, which did not mean the crisis had passed.
It was hard to guarantee that one day the dog Emperor would remember this matter again and go crazy, wanting to find trouble with Yuquan Palace. At that time, Xie Gechen would need to come forward to clean up the mess. ===== CHAPTER 1047 =====
