Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    When drug addiction breaks out, even an iron man can't endure the pain, let alone ordinary people like Huo Yuanzi and Ashan Lu. And as time goes by, they become more and more painful, and even start to act like mad dogs.  Yes, he rushed forward to grab the opium and pipe in the hands of the guards, and he was so powerful that even the two battle-hardened guards were a little overwhelmed.

    Fortunately, the guards in the palace also reacted at this time. Several people rushed up and held down Huo Yuanzi and the two. Unfortunately, the two of them were still struggling endlessly, and the howls in their mouths were more miserable than the other ones. They looked different from each other.  No different from wild beasts.

    "What happened to Huo Yuanzi and the two of them? How did they become like this?" Li Shimin asked with a livid face. Although his tone was full of anger, he was not directed at the prince.  As for the Tianzhu monk Naluo Suopo, his face turned pale with fear, and he also had a bad premonition about this matter.

    "Your Majesty, forgive me. After we seized this batch of afurong, His Highness King Qi pointed out on the spot that this drug is extremely poisonous, especially after knowing that Huo Yuanzi and the others were going to refine the afurong into elixirs for your majesty to take.  At that time, His Highness wanted to cut Huo Yuanzi and Huo Yuanzi into pieces on the spot. Only after the persuasion of his ministers did he give up this idea, but His Highness decided to let the two people smoke aphrodisiac and then use them as living creatures.  Example, show your majesty the dangers of aphrodisiac!¡±

    As soon as Wang Zihao finished speaking, Li Shimin suddenly stood up from the dragon chair and said with an incredulous look on his face: "You mean, the reason why Huo Yuanzi and Huo Yuanzi became like this is because of Afurong?  "

    "Your Majesty is wise, Huo Yuanzi and the two of them did become like this because of smoking aphrodisiac. Because this drug can make people addicted, after taking it, people are in a state of ecstasy. Their spirits are also extremely high, but after a while.  Drug addiction will occur, and if you don't take it again in time, it will become like this." Wang Zihao continued to explain.

    Empress Changsun, Li Jing and others who had already known it all sighed after hearing this. This drug is simply a monster planted by God. According to Wang Zihao, once you get involved in it, you will never be able to get rid of it for almost your entire life.  , and in order to take a puff, smokers will pay any price.  Even if they lose their entire family and are willing to sell their children, if a person falls to that point, it can be said that he is no different from an animal.

    " But Li Shimin had a look of disbelief after hearing this. After all, he couldn't imagine that there were such vicious things in this world.

    Wang Zihao was a businessman, so he naturally knew how to observe faces. When he saw Li Shimin's face, he immediately said again: "If your Majesty doesn't believe it, I have prepared aphrodisiac here. As long as they take a few puffs, they will be able to recover immediately."  He looked so energetic before!"

    "Okay, you demonstrate it to me again!" Li Shimin said with a sinking face.  In fact, he already believed it in his heart. After all, Li Min was his son, and he also knew the importance.  You would never lie to him about this kind of thing.

    Wang Zihao waved to the two guards, who immediately placed the tray in front of Huo Yuanzi and Ashanlu.  As a result, the two people immediately endured the discomfort, got up and skillfully put a ball of opium into the bubble of the pipe.  Then use a fire stick to light the oil lamp placed with the pipe, place the pipe on the fire to bake, and take two puffs with all your strength.

    As the smoke of aphrodisiac entered the lungs, the pain on the faces of Huo Yuanzi and the two men immediately disappeared, replaced by a look of ecstasy, as if they had ascended to the bliss of the world, and their lives would never be the same again.  Ask for nothing more.  At the same time, a strange sweet fragrance filled the hall.

    However, the expressions on the faces of Huo Yuanzi and the others were happy, but the hearts of Li Shimin and the others became colder, and they had a deeper understanding of the horror of Afurong. However, at this moment, Li Shimin suddenly thought of something.  He asked Wang Zihao without haste: "Minister Wang, I also took some elixirs made from afurong before. At that time, I just felt energetic, but I was not as addicted as them. I don't know why?  "

    Wang Zihao had heard Li Min explain this question a long time ago, so he immediately replied: "Your Majesty, according to His Highness, this kind of aphrodisiac can be taken or smoked. Among them, Huo Yuanzi and the two of them smoked it. This method  The effect will be extremely strong, and even give people a kind of ecstasy hallucination. As for the effect of taking it, it is not that strong, but it lasts much longer. However, taking afurong is extremely dangerous, because the drug itself  It¡¯s a poison that will definitely kill someone if it¡¯s taken in excess of a certain amount!¡±

    "Your Majesty, this monk dared to use poison to make Your Majesty take it. He is so audacious. I request Your Majesty to punish him in a canonical manner as a righteous example!" At this time, it was finally Empress Changsun's turn to perform. As a wife, she  She was concerned about her husband's safety, so it was most appropriate for her to execute Naarasasa.But at this time Naluo Suopo also woke up. After hearing the words of Queen Changsun, she fought hard and said: "Your Majesty, afurong has always been called a holy medicine in Persia and Tianzhu. No one has ever said that it is a holy medicine."  It is poisonous, and Huo Yuanzi and Huo Yuanzi were in great pain before. They may have contracted some disease or been poisoned beforehand, but after taking aphrodisiac, their pain was greatly reduced. This shows that afurong is not only not poisonous,  , it¡¯s also a holy medicine that can cure diseases and detoxify!¡±

    Hearing that Naluo Sao Po jumped over the wall and falsely accused himself of poisoning Huo Yuanzi and the two of them, Wang Zihao couldn't help but sneer, and then said sternly: "You are such a monk who slanders others, and you still haven't admitted your guilt. Since you said that Afurong didn't  It¡¯s poison, then take it now in the main hall and let His Majesty see if you will be poisoned to death!¡±

    As soon as Wang Zihao's words came out, Naluo Suopo was immediately frightened and turned pale. He dared to use afurong to make elixirs. Naturally, he knew some of the medicinal properties of afurong. He also knew that taking too much of this medicine could kill people, so he was extra careful when refining elixirs.  In addition, he believed that aphrodisiac was a rare medicine, and many Persians did not necessarily understand its medicinal properties. Naturally, there was no need to worry about being discovered in the Tang Dynasty.

    That's why he boldly made elixirs for Li Shimin to take. Unexpectedly, he was discovered by the famous King Qi. What was even more unexpected was that the other party's understanding of afurong was far better than his own. At least he didn't know that he was actually taking it.  It¡¯s amazing how powerful aphrodisiac is and how addictive it is.

    "And when Li Shimin saw Naluo Suopo's reaction, he still didn't know the reason?  At that moment, he also snorted coldly and said: "Wouldn't it be a pity to kill him with one knife? Since Naluo Suopo calls this aphrodisiac a holy medicine, let him enjoy the effect of this holy medicine, and let him and Huo Yuanzi work together  Let¡¯s all smoke it, and when it¡¯s all gone, we¡¯ll throw them into prison!¡±

    As soon as Li Shimin's words came out, Luo Ersuopo's face was ashen. Queen Changsun, Li Jing and others all claimed that they were right. Even Fang Xuanling, who looked sick, had a smile on his face at this time.  But Wang Zihao thought to himself: Your Majesty is indeed worthy of being a soldier, and he is really cruel to his enemies. This is different from His Highness King Qi. In contrast, His Highness seems to prefer to do evil things secretly.

    After seeing the terrible consequences of aphrodisiac, Li Shimin had completely lost confidence in the elixir. At this time, Empress Changsun, Li Jing and others began to admonish, and even Fang Xuanling, who was seriously ill, struggled to stand.  He got up, changed his previous cautious style, and firmly advised Li Shimin to stay away from the sorcerers.  Naturally, there was no suspense in the result. Li Shimin took advantage of the situation to find a way for himself, and announced on the spot that all Taoist priests would be driven out of the palace.

    In addition, Li Shimin also established an ancestral precept that strictly prohibited future generations from taking elixirs. At the same time, he also secretly issued an order to strengthen the supervision of drugs such as afurong. Except for pharmacies, other people were strictly prohibited from buying and selling afurong.  And the quantity purchased per person is also limited.  In fact, if Wang Zihao hadn't told Li Shimin that afurong was actually a very useful medicinal material, he would have wished to issue an imperial edict on the spot, strictly prohibiting the presence of afurong in the Tang Dynasty!

    Although this pill scandal seems to be a big deal, in fact, those who really know the inside story of this matter are limited to the upper class of the Tang Dynasty, and even those who know it rarely talk to others, at most they only talk to others.  A few friends chatted in private.  Although there are some rumors among the people, they are not entirely true and few people believe them. Moreover, the official prohibits the spread of such rumors that are harmful to His Majesty the Emperor, so the scope of spread is not wide.

    As for the various newspapers and periodicals in Datang, although they have heard some rumors, they all chose to remain silent. After all, after several years of development, various newspapers have figured out the bottom line of the imperial court and know what can be reported and what should be reported.  Even if it means killing, it cannot be published to the outside world. For example, royal secrets like this are one of the types of news that must not be published in newspapers, otherwise they will have to wait for a summons from the General Information Inspection Service!

    When the results of this matter were reported to Taiwan, Li Min finally breathed a sigh of relief. As long as Li Shimin stopped taking those so-called elixirs with excessive heavy metal content, with his current body, coupled with Empress Changsun and Si Zi,  If you can stay with him in good health, you should have no problem living for another dozen years, and these ten years should be enough time for you to truly develop, and your dependence on Datang will be reduced to a minimum.

    But just when Li Min wanted to focus on Java and solve the native uprising there, a news came from Li Yun in Tianzhu. When Li Min saw the news, he secretly regretted it!  (To be continued)
