The old beggar was stunned, his expression became serious, "I never thought that Mu Yuandao was actually poisoned! If that's the case, I'm afraid there will be something interesting to watch next!"

Then he looked at Ruyi and said, "Come with me."

Ruyi followed him to the backyard and entered a room she had never been to before, where she saw a pile of bottles and jars.

The old beggar took the porcelain bottle from her hand and dripped a drop of blood into each small bottle, a total of seven small bottles.

Then, observe the characteristics.

Ruyi stepped forward and observed with him, then frowned, "It is indeed poisoned, but this poison is unusual, no wonder ordinary people can't detect it."

"It's Xiaoyao White Bone Powder."

The old beggar frowned when he heard this.

After receiving the bottle, he was quite shocked. "It's hard to detect this poison, but it's not impossible for anyone to detect it."

Ruyi's heart skipped a beat when she heard that. "Master, do you mean that Doctor Qi can find out?"

“He could find it out, but he couldn’t solve it.”

The old beggar looked a little unhappy, and he sat down and said, "This poison is made from forty-nine kinds of medicinal herbs, including seven tonic herbs, seven laxative herbs, seven hallucinogenic fungi, and seven highly poisonous fungi."

"The rest are all ingredients. It's fine to eat a little bit normally, but if mixed together, they will form a strange substance. It's a tonic for people who practice Huangting Shu, but ordinary people can't bear it."

"I can't bear it, but I can't find out."

"Even if we find out, there is no solution."

"Because this poison formula has a balance of yin and yang, it is almost impeccable."

Ruyi was stunned when she heard this.

The old beggar looked at her with a complicated expression, "To be precise, this thing is not from the apricot forest, but from Taoist alchemy."

Ruyi immediately thought of Ye Hongzhuang and took a breath of cold air, "Could it be related to Princess Mingzhuang?"

Doctor Qi didn’t dare to say it.

The old beggar shook his head, "Not necessarily."

"Princess Mingzhuang is not that stupid. Even if she wanted to poison someone, she wouldn't use the Taoist recipe. This is no different from digging her own grave."

"To know who poisoned him and for what purpose, I'm afraid we have to wait for His Majesty the Ninth Prince to come."

Ruyi nodded, sat on the doorstep and looked at the sky outside, feeling quite heavy-hearted.

The old beggar praised her, "I said I was right about you. When you were a child, you had a photographic memory for medical books. Now it seems that you are also gifted in other areas. You were able to find out that Mu Yuandao was poisoned just by feeling his pulse."

In fact, the first time he fell in love with Shen Ruyi was when he delivered a message to Shen Cangyun.

That time, the entire message was very long, with about 700 to 800 words, which was not easy for a seven-year-old girl to remember.

At that time, the old beggar wanted to let her recite it for a while longer.

As a result, the little girl repeated it on the spot, word for word.

Her memory is truly amazing.

The old beggar couldn't imagine how amazing such a little prodigy would be in the future if he were trained.

Unfortunately...

The old beggar sighed and said, "Fortunately, it's not too late."

Ruyi smiled at him, but it was a somewhat forced smile.

She was young and ignorant, and spent a lot of time on the Shen father and son and Gu Qinghua. Now that her youth is gone, it is too late to regret.

In the future, she will study hard.

A moment later, Rong Yan arrived.

He was still sitting in a wheelchair. The silver-white fox fur on his body had a kind of noble beauty, which made him look particularly elegant, like the bright moon in the sky, bright and extraordinary.

"Did you find anything unusual with Mu Yuandao?"

He walked in and looked at Ruyi.

Although nothing could be seen on his face, his eyes were full of admiration, as if he had long expected her to be able to do this.

He likes her.

Apart from the childhood marriage, he began to look at this little girl in a different light after she easily memorized the news given to her by the old beggar.

It’s a pity that he missed it in his previous life.

Never again.

However, he was somewhat surprised that Mu Yuandao was poisoned.

Ruyi didn't know what to say, "When I went there, I just thought that I had finally learned medicine and wanted to help Sister Mu's grandfather, but I didn't expect to cause such trouble."

She stepped forward and placed her hand on Rong Yan's shoulder. "Grandpa Mu said that his health problems came after he drank the wedding wine of the Cao family's youngest son. Now he probably suspects that Cao Zhizhang did something to him."

She looked at Rong Yan, "Brother Xiao said that this matter needs to be discussed with you in advance."

Rong Yan took her hand and placed it in his palm, nodding gently, "If this is true, then the Cao family had planned this long ago. The Third Prince wants the Ministry of War."

The appetite is really too big.

It's too blatant. Aren't you afraid of choking to death?

He snorted coldly, a flash of coldness in his eyes, and looked at the old beggar, "Have you found out what the poison is?"

"There are some problems."

The old beggar pressed his forehead and said, "The long-lost poison reminds me of many things from my childhood."

As one wishes:"……"

She remained silent. She didn't expect the old beggar to talk about something from such a long time ago.

That was really something incredible.

The old beggar's eyes showed a look of reminiscence, and after a moment he said: "This thing was made by my master to assist him in his cultivation. I didn't expect that after he disappeared for so many years, this thing would reappear in the world."

No one knew whether his master was dead or alive.

There has been no news for many years.

Unexpectedly, Xiaoyao Baigu Powder actually appeared in the capital.

Ruyi knew nothing about his past and was extremely surprised when she heard this, "Is there really someone in this world who practices alchemy?"

The old beggar came back to his senses and said, "It happens in every era. When the emperors of every dynasty reached old age, they would inevitably send people to look for the elixir of life. The Buddhists wanted to cultivate a relic, and the Taoists also hoped to create a golden elixir."

"Although I know it's all false, I haven't seen anyone achieve immortality and become a Buddha in all these years."

"But people's desires are endless."

"My master has been curing illnesses and saving lives all his life, but when he was in his 50s or 60s, he couldn't escape the fear of death and chose that path."

“…”

Ruyi sighed deeply after hearing this.

She couldn't say anything about this matter. After all, she was reborn, so it would be just as outrageous if she said it.

But the old beggar's words made her think of real problems.

"So, besides our master and our teacher, the only person in the world who knows how to make this medicine is Doctor Liang from Nanchu?"

It is obvious that the collusion between the Third Prince and Nan Chu did not happen after Shen Jiaojiao came, but started very early.

Ruyi still felt frightened when she thought of this.

It turns out that there were so many secrets and dangers buried in the dark in the previous life.

Shen Jiaojiao is from Nanchu and has someone helping her behind the scenes.

The third prince is from the royal family, and the Shen family is the prime minister's residence.

Add to that the Gu family and the second prince, the turmoil in the court, the wars on the border, and the nine princes fighting for the throne. How could a little girl from the harem get involved and escape unscathed?

Death in the previous life was inevitable.

Ruyi thought about this and felt complicated for a moment.

The old beggar nodded, "It's not that Doctor Qi can't tell what this is, it's that he doesn't dare."

“…”

Ruyi suddenly realized, "That's right. He is old and will soon retire to the countryside. It is understandable that he doesn't want to get involved in the court struggles. Besides, even if he points it out, there is no cure and it will only add to the turmoil."
