Chapter 535: Hehe! Longevity
Granny Du looked at her happily. “I just flattered her a little and she gave it to me. She even said that after the Heir-Consort finished eating, she would ask her aunt to help buy it.”
Granny Xu looked at Granny Du’s smile and was secretly jealous. Why was she so lucky to easily obtain her indenture?
“Go back and wait first. I’ll report to the Heir-Consort now.”
Granny Du nodded with a smile and left excitedly.
Granny Xu went to the main courtyard and told the Heir-Consort, Madam Tang, what Granny Du had said. “Princess Consort, look at how readily she gave it to Granny Du. Perhaps her pills can really extend life?”
Madam Tang glared at her. “Are you stupid?! Use your brain to think about it. Even the Hajima Pill rewarded by the Empress Dowager didn’t have such effects. There must be something strange about her.”
Nanny Xu smiled awkwardly. “I deserve to die. I shouldn’t have thought of taking advantage.”
Madam Tang looked at the glowing red Divine Immortal Pill in her hand and smelled it. A refreshing fragrance assaulted her nose. She thought to herself that if this was not brought over by that bitch, she might have really tried it.
“This thing is definitely not something good. I have to send it to the Heir Lord quickly so that it can be taken to the Imperial Hospital for examination!”
Chu Yan, the son of Duke Fu, was also very surprised to see the pills. After thinking about it, he took the pill to the Imperial Hospital and found Imperial Physician Wu, who was close to him, to check.
After Imperial Physician Wu checked, he was shocked and hurriedly pulled him to a quiet place. He stared at him and said, “Heir Lord, this is clearly a medicinal pill refined from the Five Stone Powder that Great Ancestor strictly prohibited from consuming. It was enhanced with some herbs with a strange fragrance.”
“Five Stone Powder,” Chu Yan exclaimed in a low voice. His vision darkened and he almost fell to the ground.
Imperial Physician Wu supported him and looked at Chu Yan with a serious expression. “Heir Lord, Great Ancestor has strictly forbidden the subjects of Great Yong to consume this thing. It has been more than a hundred years since
Great Ancestor left. It’s no wonder you don’t know it. You should know that Great Ancestor has ordered that if the nobles and ministers consume this thing, they will be exiled after their ranks are cut.”
Chu Yan hurriedly stuffed a pouch into Imperial Physician Wu’s sleeve. “I got it by chance. Seeing that the color was good and there was a fragrance, I was curious, so I brought it to you to check what it was.”
Imperial Physician Wu glanced at him. “I don’t think you knew what this is either. Otherwise, you wouldn’t have shown it to me. You should know what to do. If I get caught, I won’t be able to escape responsibility.”
“Thank you, thank you. I know what to do. I won’t implicate you.”
After Chu Yan cupped his hands in thanks to Imperial Physician Wu, he hurriedly left the Imperial Hospital.
After getting into the carriage, he gritted his teeth and looked at the medicinal pill in his hand. “Who exactly is this bitch who came to harm the entire Duke’s Mansion? The Old Master is really something. He’s already so old, but he’s still bewitched and hooked up with her. Now, he might even harm the entire Duke’s Mansion.”
The carriage quickly returned to the Fu County’s residence and Chu Yan brought a few guards straight to the Fu County’s courtyard. When they reached the entrance, they said to the guards, “Watch this place. No one is allowed to enter or leave.”
After a few guards bowed in agreement, they guarded the courtyard door.
When Duke Fu saw his son run in angrily, he looked at him unhappily. “Ah Yan, why did you barge in without informing me?”
Chu Yan rushed in front of Duke Fu and gritted his teeth as he pointed at Yu Yan, who was standing behind him.
“Immortal pills! I think it’s very good to eat it. Do you want me to get some for you to try?” The Fu Duke chuckled.
Chu Yan looked at Duke Fu and his eyes widened. “These pills are made from
Five Stone Powder. This vixen siren is clearly trying to harm our Duke
Mansion.”
“No, no…” Duke Fu’s eyes widened when he heard this. He turned to look at Yu
Yan behind him, unwilling to believe that he was consuming Five Stones Powder. “What did you give me to eat?”
“I’ll really give you immortal pills!”
Yu Yan did not know what the Five Stone Powder was. From the expressions of Chu Yan and Duke Fu, she could tell that it was not something good!
Looking at Duke Fu and his son, she said with an aggrieved expression, “Heir Lord, I really gave the royal prince immortal pills. I won’t harm the royal prince.”
“How dare you quibble!” Chu Yan ignored Duke Fu and pointed at the trembling Yu Yan. “Tell me, who asked you to harm my Duke Mansion? Where did this come from?
Yu Yan looked at the prince and retreated in fear. “I didn’t know these were made from Five Stones Powder. She said that these were immortal pills. She also said that eating it can extend one’s life and preserve one’s youth forever.” He looked at her and shouted, “Who is she? Where does she live?”
Duke Fu also reacted and said to the heir, “Quickly bring people to capture that bitch and inform the Prince Consort.”
Duke Fu looked at Yu Yan and roared, “B*tch, hurry up and lead the way.”
Yu Yan agreed fearfully and rushed towards Osmanthus Street with Duke Fu and Chu Yan. When they arrived at the entrance of the Gao family’s house, she pointed and said, “That’s the one.”
“Knock on the door,” he ordered in a low voice.
Madam Gao opened the door a crack and saw the aggressive Chu Yan and guards behind Yu Yan. She hurriedly closed the door but it was pushed open by the guards.
When Madam Gao fell to the ground, she took out the pill from her sleeve cage and stuffed it into her mouth. When the guard picked her up and he saw her looking at Yu Yan with a strange smile.
When Yu Yan saw the black blood flowing out of Madam Gao’s mouth and flowing down her face, she screamed in fear.
Chu Yan’s heart skipped a beat. He instinctively felt that something was wrong and hurriedly said, “Go in and search.”
The guard rushed in. After searching carefully, he did not find a pill.
Chu Yan got someone to drag Yu Yan in. He looked at her with a dark expression and said, “Find out where that woman hid the medicine.”
Yu Yan looked at the clean house and felt as if she was in an abyss. She entered the house where Madam Gao used to gather medicine and saw that it had already been turned into a mess by the guard.
Yu Yan stood in the house and looked around. She walked to the bed and turned to look at the guards. “See if there’s anything in here.”
The guard went forward and flipped his foot. He saw that it was not hollow below. There was also a partition. He patted the pedal and it lifted. He saw the neatly arranged black porcelain medicine jars inside.
Chu Yan found a cloth bag and put them away. He walked to the courtyard and looked at Madam Gao’s corpse. He thought for a moment and asked the guard to enter the house to find a lock. He locked the courtyard door and brought the guard and Yu Yan back.
He got someone to lock Yu Yan in the house and placed the pills in front of Duke Fu. “Father, the bitch who sold the medicine committed suicide and died after consuming poison. I haven’t informed Prince Consort’s residence yet. I don’t know if the Prince Consort has given it to anyone else. What do you think we should do now?”
