The brown pill is only the size of a fingernail, and has mysterious patterns on it.

He thought about what happened during the day.

She asked: Do you want to stand up again? People often ask this question on weekdays.

He always smiled without saying anything and avoided answering.

Because this question was so funny, how could he not want to stand up? But he thought, what's the point? There is no point in answering it, so he simply didn't say it.

But today, for some reason, when he heard her ask, he subconsciously spoke out what was in his heart.

Perhaps it was because there was no other emotion in Princess Qiyuan's tone.

Just a question, no pity, no disdain, and no ridicule...

It was just a simple question.

"Your Highness, you are still looking at this."

Jinshu came in with a basin of water, wrung out the wet towel, and then handed it over.

"I guess Princess Qiyuan made this by rubbing her hands while playing in the mud?"

"It's ok if you just try to comfort her in person, but don't take it seriously!"

As he said this, he shook his head and smiled.

The little princess is actually like a little charlatan and can perform magic tricks.

He took out a ghost painting, tore it apart and it disappeared...

But the next moment, he couldn't laugh anymore.

"Your Highness, you can't do that!"

Shangguan Jin put the pill in his mouth, tilted his head back and swallowed it.

Jinshu hurried to his side, looked at him worriedly, and spoke incoherently in anxiety.

"You, how come you actually ate it?!"

He was so anxious that he was almost crazy.

"This, won't make people sick?"

"I'll go get the doctor!"

"Shut up!"

Shangguan Jin roared angrily, then looked at his legs in disbelief, raised his hands, clenched his fists, and hammered them twice.

"I feel my legs are numb."

"W-what?!"

Jinshu was so surprised that he couldn't speak clearly.

Shangguan Jin stared at his legs in ecstasy. The long-lost numbness and tingling almost brought tears to his eyes.

"Wow..." Jinshu cried with joy.

I was so happy that I couldn't speak and could only gesture randomly with my hands.

“That’s great!”

Shangguan Jin moved his feet slightly. His feet had not moved for a long time, so they felt soft and weak and out of control.

But his feet can really move!

Realizing this, his eyes turned red and he rubbed his legs a few more times. Then he supported himself on the chair with both hands, gathered his strength, and stood up!

Jinshu's gaze moved upwards as he stood up.

When she saw that he really stood up, her pupils suddenly shocked and her eyes widened.

"Your Highness, be careful!" He hurried forward to support him.

With his support, Shangguan Jin took a step forward.

After taking this small step, Shangguan Jin pushed Jinshu's hand away, took a deep breath, and tried to move forward on his own.

At first it was slow and shaky, like a toddler learning to walk.

But each step is more steady and faster than the last...

He walked around the room several times, wishing he could walk all the roads he hadn't walked in all these years!

It took him a while to calm down and get back into his wheelchair.

"Don't mention this to anyone else!"

Jin Shu looked serious, "Don't worry, Your Highness."

Suddenly, he thought of something and quickly grabbed Shangguan Jin's arm, looking panicked.

"The elixir is real, so isn't the talisman real as well?!"

Shangguan Jin looked at the strange pattern on his left arm.

He had tried before, but it couldn't be wiped off no matter how hard he tried, as if it was a birthmark he was born with.

He whispered softly, "A talisman for questioning the heart."

That childish but cold and murderous voice echoed in his mind again.

"I'll help you get back on your feet."

"In return, you help me with something!"

"With this talisman, if you want to hurt me and endanger Daqi, you will explode and die!"

Looking back, Jinshu had tried many methods but none of them worked. He was so anxious that he was sweating profusely.

"Master, what should we do?"

Shangguan Jin withdrew his arm and put down his sleeves, looking indifferent and unconcerned.

"It's okay. As long as I don't have any bad intentions, this thing won't hurt me."

Jinshu was still worried, "But..."

"There is no need to mention this matter any further. Go and prepare some hot water. This Highness needs to take a bath. Also, pass on the order that our intelligence network should be reactivated."

Hearing this, Jinshu was excited.

"yes!"

In the Qionghua Palace, Chu Yaoyao went to sleep peacefully only after she got the news that the villain had taken the elixir.

Well, everyone has their own expertise, and it should be the villains who cause trouble for the protagonists.

…

The next day, Wei Cang led a group of people to move between the stable, pigpen and toilet.

After a busy and interesting day, he was exhausted both physically and mentally and was about to go home. However, just as he was about to step into the carriage, he heard someone calling him.

"Master Wei! Please stay!"

He turned around quickly, "Butler Su?"

Su Maowen walked up to him, his nose twitched slightly, and then he silently took a few steps back.

Seeing his actions, Wei Cang looked embarrassed and took two steps back.

"The emperor has ordered us to bring the imperial physician to help Lord Wei."

Wei Cang bowed in the direction of the Imperial Palace and said loudly, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your grace!"

…

It was already the second day when Wei Cang walked into the house in a daze.

Mrs. Wei came towards him humming a tune. Seeing how disheveled he was, she fanned him with a handkerchief in disgust, then covered her mouth and nose.

"Master, are you punished to clean the pigsty?"

As soon as he heard her voice, Wei Cang's mind rang with Dean Zhang's words.

"...Lord Wei is in good health. Although he has some minor ailments caused by overwork, they will not affect his offspring..."

Every month, doctors come to check the pulses of the wives and concubines in this mansion.

The doctor never said anything was wrong with them.

Now the imperial physician has also said that there is nothing wrong with his health.

Then why can't they get pregnant?! Someone in this mansion must have done something! The only person in this mansion who can do this is Qiu Shi, who is in front of him. Don't even think about him! Why do you treat him like this?

Over the years, he respected her, honored her, and even tolerated her in everything because of guilt...

What on earth had he done wrong? How could Qiu be so cruel as to want him to have no descendants! Thinking of this, he was filled with grief and indignation, and trembled all over.

I almost couldn't help but ask directly.

But I can't ask her, because even if I did, she wouldn't admit it.

The investigation must be conducted in secret.

When the truth is revealed, she will definitely pay the price!

Thinking of this, he suppressed his anger and uttered a few words through gritted teeth.

"Where are you going again?"

Mrs. Wei didn't notice anything wrong.

She stood a little further away, but she kept the handkerchief on her nose, and her voice was very nasal when she spoke.

"Go to the temple to burn incense."

Hearing this, Wei Cang looked at her suspiciously.

Is it necessary to dress up so fancy to burn incense?

Looking at Qiu, he looked a little dazed.

Come to think of it, she seemed very happy every time she went to the temple over the years...

Why is this?

But the shock he received today was too great, and his mind was still very confused and he couldn't make sense of it for a while.

Wei Cang frowned and looked at her, "Didn't you go there the day before yesterday? Why are you going again today?"

Hearing this, Mrs. Wei rolled her eyes.

"Your Excellency had your meal yesterday. Does that mean you don't need to eat today?"

After saying this, she twisted her waist, hummed a little tune, and walked away.

"Father, you are back."

Hearing the voice, Wei Cang turned his head and his eyes fell on Wei Yuelang's face. His eyes gradually became dull.

At the beginning, Wei Yuelang was only seven or eight years old when he entered the Wei Mansion.

At that time, he was very happy to see that the child had some similarities with him in his eyes and eyebrows.

I thought, maybe this is God's will, this child is destined to be with him.

Even God seemed to want to help him cover up his lie and save his dignity.

But now think about it, how could such an unrelated person be so similar to him? "Father."

Seeing that he didn't respond, Wei Yuelang took a few steps forward.

"Father, is the mission difficult? If you encounter any difficulties, I can help you."

One is disgusted, the other is tempting.

What a irony! He didn't come home all night, but his wife and children didn't even say a word of concern!
