Chapter 36 Things are getting out of control



Gao Zhenzhen suddenly realized: No wonder she hadn't learned how to make elixirs for so long, it turned out that Master Yuan was actually a liar.

It was a pity that she was so complacent about having such a powerful master, but it turned out to be all in vain!

She looked at Nangong Yu and said aggrievedly: "It's my body that's too disappointing. I haven't learned anything at all..."

Yuan Haocang immediately explained, "When it comes to alchemy, getting started is the most difficult part. Don't rush. It took me half a year to successfully refine my first batch of pills."

"It turns out that those who learn in half a year are geniuses. Doesn't that mean ordinary people will need years to learn?" Xuanyuan Qi said with a sigh.

"No wonder pills are so expensive. It turns out it's so difficult to become an alchemist. Without perseverance and determination, it's really impossible."

"Zhenzhen is in poor health and is not suitable for long-term exertion. Master Yuan, let's forget about Zhenzhen refining the elixir." Nangong Yu gave Chen Long a wink.

Chen Long immediately took out a storage bag and handed it to Yuan Haocang.

"Master Yuan, thank you for your hard work these days."

Nangong Yu was going to fire Yuan Haocang, and he didn't shy away from the fact that there were so many people present.

"Superficial!" Being questioned and dismissed in public, even though Yuan Haocang wanted to curry favor with the powerful, he could not stand the humiliation. He did not take the storage bag and left angrily.

Ling Xiang didn't understand.

Is alchemy difficult? Does it take half a year to get started?

She succeeded on the first try.

You've only been learning for half a year, are you sure you're not a complete idiot?

However, given the King of Qin's meticulousness, how could he possibly ask a fool to teach his beloved? If Yuan Haocang really couldn't make alchemy, how could Nangong Yu have gone unnoticed for a month?

Things gradually became outrageous.

With Yuan Haocang's departure, the banquet seemed less enjoyable and everyone left one after another.

Ling Xiang didn't let Nanny Gui send her off, and chose to go back in the carriage by herself.

However, as soon as he got on the carriage, he found that there was already someone sitting in it.

"My carriage broke down, and the prince's mansion and the marquis' mansion are on the same route. It seems that we are really destined to meet." Xuanyuan Qi looked at Ling Xiang with a smile.

Ling Xiang's mouth twitched.

Just now she had clearly seen Xuanyuan Qi's carriage being driven away by his coachman. The carriage was very flashy and didn't look like it was broken down at all.

But Xuanyuan Qi couldn't have predicted that she would not go with Nanny Gui, so he waited here early.

Moreover, this was the carriage of the Prince of Qin's Palace, and she had no right to drive Xuanyuan Qi away. She could only find a seat farthest away from him, sit down, take out the book and read it carefully.

It was hard for Xiaoyu and Mu Heng. They didn't dare sit with the prince and could only sit outside and squeeze with the coachman.

Ling Xiang originally thought that Xuanyuan Qi would be difficult to deal with, but she didn't expect that he actually remained silent the entire time, as if he really didn't want to disturb her reading.

Ling Xiang arrived home, but Xuanyuan Qi, who had not yet arrived home, got off the carriage.

"Your Highness Prince Huai, what are you doing?"

"I want to visit your house. Why, are you not welcome?" Xuanyuan Qi raised his eyebrows.

Ling Xiang didn't want to pay attention to him but had to deal with him, she was speechless: "Of course you are welcome..."

Arriving at Xiang Garden, Xuanyuan Qi was very satisfied: "This is the courtyard where a rich lady should live."

Ling Xiang took Xuanyuan Qi to the living room, but Xuanyuan Qi pushed further and said, "Go to your room."

"This is inappropriate." Ling Xiang refused sternly.

"You take me there, or I'll let your maid take me there. It's your choice." Xuanyuan Qi smiled calmly, but the words he said were very rude.

Xiaoyu had been wronged today by having to squeeze outside with the coachman in the cold wind. Ling Xiang naturally wouldn't let Xuanyuan Qi make things difficult for her again, so she had to compromise.

Walking into the room, Xuanyuan Qi saw that there was only a futon for practicing martial arts in the room. He raised an eyebrow and asked, "Is this your room?"

Ling Xiang: "My practice room is for me alone, so of course it's my room." Want to go to her bedroom? Dream on!

"That's fine." Xuanyuan Qi didn't care. He closed the door and made a gesture to isolate himself from the outside world. Then he took out a round crystal ball and said, "Put your hand on it."

Ling Xiang didn't recognize this thing. In order to get rid of Xuanyuan Qi as soon as possible, he put his hand on it and turned on the instrument in the space to see if he could find anything.

She had placed her hand on it for a while, but the crystal ball did not respond at all, and the instruments in the space could not detect any useful information.

Xuanyuan Qi frowned and asked, "You didn't take the antidote?"

Ling Xiang didn't know how Xuanyuan Qi discovered it, but she thought it must be related to the crystal ball. She nodded and said, "He Xun is unreliable. I don't trust him, so I didn't take the antidote he gave me. I haven't had time to take the antidote that Doctor Li sent me yet."

"So you not only know medical skills, but also have good medical skills." Xuanyuan Qi affirmed.

Ling Xiang didn't understand how she had been exposed: "Why does Your Majesty have such an illusion?"

"If an ordinary person is poisoned by Wuyan, even if he doesn't care about his face, he will definitely not care about his life. He will definitely take the antidote as soon as he gets it. You don't want to take the antidote, you don't want to die, right?" Xuanyuan Qi grabbed Ling Xiang's hand and placed his fingers on her pulse.

"I once took the detoxification pill given by the princess." Ling Xiang tried to pull her hand back, but Xuanyuan Qi held it tightly and she couldn't break free.

"Your Highness knows medicine?" she asked.

Xuanyuan Qi closed his eyes and said, "Don't struggle, or you will suffer the consequences."

Soon, Ling Xiang felt that Xuanyuan Qi's spiritual power entered his meridians.

This was the third person who could practice cultivation that she had met today.

Xuanyuan Qi is the main villain in the original book, but the original book does not mention that he is a cultivator.

She didn't know how powerful Xuanyuan Qi was, and didn't know what the consequences would be if other people's spiritual power entered her meridians, so she could only accept it passively.

After a while, Xuanyuan Qi withdrew his hand, his expression puzzled: "Can you practice?"

Ling Xiang took a few steps back, away from Xuanyuan Qi: "Your Highness, we are not familiar with each other. Your behavior is very inappropriate."

Xuanyuan Qi, always shameless, completely ignored Ling Xiang's words: "Although your poison hasn't yet invaded your meridians, to be on the safe side, you should still detoxify as soon as possible. Take the antidote that Doctor Li sent you."

"How can Your Highness be sure that Imperial Physician Li is reliable?" Ling Xiang disagreed.

"You are still useful to the princess. She won't harm you for the time being." Xuanyuan Qi was rarely so persistent. "Be obedient and don't gamble with your future."

Does this guy think she is angry with him now?

Ling Xiang was almost laughing with anger. She took out the antidote and threw it directly into her mouth: "Is Your Highness satisfied now? Can we leave now?"

She had checked the antidote and found no problems. She had planned to take it tonight.

Xuanyuan Qi is obviously not so easy to deal with:

"Aren't you going to thank me for what happened today at the Prince Qin's Mansion?"

Ling Xiang's eyelids twitched: "Your Majesty, I have no money."

"This king said, I don't want your silver."

Ling Xiang: "...Thank you."

Xuanyuan Qi seemed not to notice Ling Xiang's perfunctory response: "The waters of the Qin Palace are too deep. You'd better not go there."
