    Cinnabar acts on the central nervous system and is a powerful tranquilizer. It is mainly used to treat restlessness, palpitations and insomnia. It is very helpful for Wu Meiniang's sadness and anxiety.  If you take it in the early stage, the effect will naturally be obvious, but cinnabar cannot be taken for a long time, otherwise it will accumulate and cause poisoning. The ancients did not know this. What they wanted was this effect. In the future, if Wu Meiniang died of cinnabar poisoning, no one would suspect it.  This medicine caused it.  There is no doubt about him.  Xianyun took out a letter from his arms and handed it to him: "This is what Mingkong asked me to get for you." Zuo Shaoyang took it and looked at it. There was nothing on the envelope, but it was thick and probably contained dozens of pages.  So many.  I wonder where this Wu Meiniang got so many disgusting words to write?  Zuo Shaoyang took Xianyun to meet his family and introduced Xianyun's identity.  When Qiao Qiaoer and others heard that she was the girl recognized by Zuo Shaoyang, they were a little nervous at first. However, when they saw that she had gone out of the family and there was no such thing as flirting with Zuo Shaoyang, they confirmed that she was a real girl and not a romantic sister.  So I felt relieved.  After the whole family was very affectionate to her.  He took her to the backyard to talk.  Zuo Shaoyang ordered the donkey to be prepared, and with the letter in his arms, he rode the donkey into the palace and arrived at the Prince's East Palace.  Since she has already begun to poison Wu Meiniang, she will die sooner or later anyway, so there is no need for her letter to be a trick. She just wants to help them sincerely, so that the two of them will not be suspicious.  He can now enter and leave the palace freely without being searched. Of course, it is only during the day. After dark, he cannot enter without a summons.  He rode a donkey to the East Palace and announced his entry.  The Crown Prince and Crown Princess Zuo Wenzhi welcomed him out in person.  Although Li Zhi is now the crown prince, Zuo Shaoyang is now the emperor's senior brother and his Taishan boss, so he doesn't dare to take any arrogance.  Zuo Shaoyang asked the prince to retreat, including his daughter Zuo Wenzhi. It was strange for the prince that there were only two people left in the room. When Zuo Shaoyang took out the letter from Wu Meiniang, the prince opened it and saw that it was from his lover Wu Meiniang.  Xin, his whole body was shocked, he couldn't help but blush, and his eyes were full of fear.  "It's no wonder that the person he had an affair with was his father's concubine. If Li Shimin knew about this, it would be difficult to protect his position as the prince, and he might not even be able to survive.  He was originally a cowardly person in this life. Holding the letter, his face turned pale and trembling with fear.  Finally, his knees weakened, and he knelt down with a thud: "Father-in-law, spare your life! I, I don't dare to do it anymore" He kowtowed with a thud.  Zuo Shaoyang was a little funny. The dignified prince was supposed to kowtow to him, but now he kowtowed to himself instead. It was really a trick of fate.  He hurriedly stepped forward and helped him up: "It doesn't have to be like this, Taiyao. Don't worry, I'm not here to ask for guilt!" Upon hearing this, the prince seemed to be a drowning man grabbing a straw, and looked at Zuo Shaoyang with surprise and joy:  "Father-in-law, what is this?", "When I married my daughter to you, I didn't know that you had this relationship with Wu Cai Ren. Later, Wu Cai Ren fell ill and begged me and told the truth. I  I just know. I am not an old-fashioned prince. I will inherit the throne in the future. It is impossible for the seventy-two concubines of the emperor's three palaces and six courtyards to only guard my daughter. I see Wu Cairen miss you and become depressed, and I can't bear it. I am willing.  I hope you will be kind to Wen Zhi in the future." Prince Li Zhi said with cold sweat on his forehead: "Don't worry, father-in-law, if I do anything bad to Wen Zhi, God will punish me!"  The emperor and the prince are the future emperors, and swearing by "Heaven will punish him" is the heaviest oath.  Zuo Shaoyang nodded with satisfaction: "Then I can rest assured. I will keep this matter a secret for you. You can read the letter first. After reading it, write a reply and I will give it to Wu Cairen for you. Now I will go and see  "Look at my daughter." "Yes, thank you, father-in-law!" The prince was worried and kept sending Zuo Shaoyang to the door. When he saw him leaving, he closed the door and quickly read the letter.  In the letter, Wu Meiniang expressed the pain of missing her, told Zuo Shaoyang that she had cured her serious illness, and was willing to help them. She already recognized Zuo Shaoyang as her father. If the sky has eyes, she hopes to serve the prince together with her sister Wenzhi.  After reading it, Li Zhi felt sad and happy, ashamed and grateful. He sat behind the Long Case and wrote a reply.  Zuo Shaoyang was chatting with his daughter Zuo Wenzhi in the room, and asked how the prince treated her. She said it was very good, but the prince often sighed for some reason, and he didn't know why. Zuo Shaoyang naturally knew that it was for Wu Meiniang.  He reassured her that it was okay.  I thought that there was hope for the two of them in this matter, and the prince's mood would gradually improve.  "However, after the emperor practiced the magic of longevity, his health was very good. The prince wanted to inherit the throne, but he didn't know that he would have to wait until the Year of the Monkey and the Horse.  However, the emperor intended to let the prince participate in politics, but he stopped him. After Wu Meiniang died, the matter could be mentioned again. When the prince ascended the throne, his daughter became the queen, and he became the head of the country.  The prince finished writing the letter and came to the house. He saw his wife Zuo Wenzhi chatting happily with his father-in-law Zuo Shaoyang. He couldn't help but feel guilty. He put his arms around Zuo Wenzhi's slender waist and praised his wife to Zuo Shaoyang.  virtuous and virtuous.  Made Zuo Wenzhi famous?.  When sending Zuo Shaoyang out, the prince secretly gave Zuo Shaoyang the letter.  Zuo Shaoyang returned to the drug store and quietly gave the letter to Xianyun.  Xianyun said goodbye and left.  In this way, Zuo Shaoyang became Wu Meiniang and the prince's messenger. At first, the two were a little worried whether Zuo Shaoyang had ulterior motives, but after a while, nothing happened, and the two passed Zuo Shaoyang.  Sending messages is also very secure.  Nothing went wrong.  During this period, the two had several private trysts, which were also arranged by Zuo Shaoyang.  Very appropriate.  Only then did the two of them believe that Zuo Shaoyang was sincerely helping them, and they couldn't help but burst into tears of gratitude. They both said privately that if they could get what they wanted in the future, they would treat Zuo Wenzhi well and reward this good doctor who was generous and helpful.  Half a year has passed in the blink of an eye, and it¡¯s October in the golden autumn.  Over the past six months, Wu Meiniang has been taking cinnabar powder every day. Symptoms of chronic accumulation poisoning began to appear, including a metallic taste in the mouth, drooling, congestion and ulcers on the oral mucosa, swelling, pain and bleeding in the teeth, nausea and vomiting, abdominal pain and diarrhea, trembling fingers, and blood in the urine.  .  When Zuo Shaoyang discovered that Wu Meiniang was increasingly poisoned, Zuo Shaoyang went into the palace to see Emperor Li Shimin before she could seek treatment from him.  The emperor has been practicing that technique for more than half a year. Not only has the original poisoning in his body been eliminated, but he is also light and healthy and full of energy.  Many affairs of the government were handed over to Changsun Wuji and other ministers. He spent half of his time on Taoism. Not only did he read carefully the Taoist books in the palace, but he also invited several famous Taoist priests to spend the whole day.  Talk about scriptures and Taoism.  When Zuo Shaoyang met him, he was reading Taoist classics in the library.  After hearing the notice that Zuo Shaoyang asked for an audience, he quickly summoned him.  Zuo Shaoyang came in, and the emperor looked at the emperor and said, "Senior brother is here!" "Yes." Zuo Shaoyang twirled his black beard in an old-fashioned way, looked at the emperor up and down, and shook his head.  The emperor was stunned for a moment and asked: "Brother, why are you shaking your head?", "Your vomiting technique has reached its bottleneck. If you don't adjust your practice, it will be difficult to make any progress." The emperor also felt that he had nothing to do these days.  "How to concentrate on cultivation" seems to have stagnated, and I am also a little depressed. I thought that I was not getting the right way, so I hid in the library and tried to find the answer from the classics. Now listening to Zuo Shaoyang's words, Ganqing has reached a bottleneck.  He hurriedly asked: "Brother, what's the way to break through the bottleneck?  ", "Go into the mountains to practice!  "Zuo Shaoyang twirled his beard and said, "I have said before that you should practice once a year for one month at a time, and it must be hard practice. Only in this way can you break through the bottleneck." "Go to the mountains to practice?" The emperor nodded slowly.  , "It's just that there are many state affairs and I can't escape." Zuo Shaoyang smiled: "It doesn't matter, anyway, the emperor practiced this technique just to cure diseases." Now that the disease has been cured, it doesn't matter if there is no progress in this technique.  You can only live for a hundred years.  Anyway, it should be okay to live over a hundred years old.  " "That won't work!  "The emperor said anxiously, "I will go into the mountains with you to practice!  "In the past, the emperor's desire for power was the greatest, but after being the emperor for more than 20 years, "when the imperial power was stable, and in old age, the desire for longevity" gradually overshadowed the desire for imperial power. Although  It is not immortal, but the fact that it can prolong life is attractive enough. Now I heard that if I don't break through this bottleneck, my life will be shortened by a hundred years. Of course the emperor is worried.  Hearing that the emperor wanted to go into the mountains with him to practice cultivation, this was the purpose of Zuo Shaoyang's trip. He wanted to find a grand excuse to avoid Wu Meiniang, who was already chronically poisoned, so that Wu Meiniang would not seek treatment from him if she became seriously ill.  He immediately smiled and said: "Okay, it's just the time for me to go to the mountains to practice. The emperor is practicing this Taoist supreme magic for the first time. He must go to the mountains to practice for a longer time before it will be effective.", "How long will it take?",  "Well, at least three months, preferably half a year!" The emperor thought for a while and said: "Okay! I will follow my senior brother into the mountains to practice for half a year!" Judging from the development of Wu Meiniang's poisoning symptoms, Zuo Shaoyang estimated that Wu Meiniang would not survive.  Three months.  Therefore, he had to ask the emperor to go into the mountains with him to practice for more than three months.  Now that the emperor has offered to practice for half a year, he is even more happy. In this case, Wu Meiniang will definitely die.  Zuo Shaoyang twirled his beard and said with a smile: "Junior brother, you have to think about it. Going into the mountains to practice is not a tour. You can't have servants to serve you. You have to cook by yourself, build a hay shed by yourself, hunt by yourself, and hunt by yourself.  Make a fire and cook food. Except for a sword, a bow and arrow, a change of clothes, dry food, oil and salt cooking utensils, you can't bring anything else with you! You have to rely on yourself for everything, including me. We have to practice separately.  , lest you instruct me to do things for you." Li Shimin looked up to the sky and laughed: "This is interesting, okay! I still don't believe that I can't support myself!" Li Shimin's military life was full of hardships.  He has suffered a lot, so living in seclusion in the mountains is not a problem for him.  Zuo Shaoyang smiled and said: "Okay, when shall we leave?", "Without further ado, let's" Uh, no, ?We have to settle the state affairs first, and half a year is not a short time.  I need to get these settled first.  In addition, on the Huashan side, they will definitely search the mountain first to get rid of the idlers.  I'm afraid it will take about half a month for these to be processed.  ", Zuo Shaoyang sneered: "It's so troublesome, then the emperor should cultivate slowly in your back garden, and I will go into the mountain by myself.  "After that, he turned around and left. "Wait!  Senior brother.  "Li Shimin said hurriedly, "Then, I will let the prince temporarily take charge of the government and settle the state affairs. Let's set off again tomorrow morning, okay?" "You can just make an announcement. How long will this take?" Zuo Shaoyang said lightly.  , "You want to practice Taoism and government affairs at the same time. You can't take care of both. I said it at the beginning. If a Taoist wants to achieve Taoism, he must be indifferent to fame and fortune. You are such a coward, mother-in-law, you can't worry about this and give up on that."  If you can't do it, why should you practice Taoism? It's better to be your emperor!" "Well, hey, brother, don't be angry, I am a Taoist sincerely, and I have planned to let the prince participate in politics and help me with state affairs, so that I can free up time.  "My senior brother doesn't give me time to practice." "At that time, I didn't know whether you were really practicing Taoism or just to cure illnesses. Over the past year, I think you have a pious heart in practicing Taoism. That's why.  It¡¯s up to you as a cultivator. Now you can let the prince take part in the government or temporarily act as an agent. It all depends on whether you want to practice Taoism sincerely or just for fun.¡± ¡°Of course, let the prince do it for real!  Help me take care of the state affairs, so that I can concentrate on practicing Taoism!" Over the past year, Li Shimin has tasted the wonderful effects of this art of rejuvenation and breathing on longevity and nourishing the body and mind, just like a cat who has tasted the fishy smell and is still willing to let go!  , although the imperial power still cannot be given up, it is okay to let his son help with the daily affairs of the government.  Zuo Shaoyang smiled: "Okay, you arrange it as soon as possible. People who practice Taoism don't want mother-in-law and mother-in-law. They have to know how to give up in order to get it. Do you understand?"  Hurry up. Let's go now!" "Wait a minute, I have one more thing to tell you." "You have a talented person named Wu, right?" "Yes?  It's strange. I don't know why Zuo Shaoyang mentioned this matter at this time.  Zuo Shaoyang said: "Not long ago, I went to Ganye Temple to offer incense. This martial artist happened to be ill. I cured her. She was very grateful and insisted on worshiping me as her adoptive father. I said this was inappropriate.  , I am the emperor's senior brother, and you are the emperor's talented man. If you worship me as your adoptive father, don't I become the emperor for nothing? But if she insists on worshiping me, there is nothing I can do to her." "Emperor.  Smile: "What's the matter? This kind of seniority cannot be calculated. There is no need to pay attention to so many clich¨¦s! We all have to figure it out." This is what Li Shimin said in his heart, because if there is really a question of seniority, he  That was troublesome. He married Emperor Sui Yang's daughter as his imperial concubine, and then married Emperor Sui Yang's wife Xiao Meiniang as Zhaoyi.  It goes against the rules of seniority to treat both young and old alike.  .
