Start by scolding the empress

Chapter 167 Make a Bet

"Actually, the chief minister of the cabinet came to see me yesterday. Cheng Chen thought about it a lot and felt that it would not lead to any results if he kept blocking your majesty on this matter. It even caused constant conflicts between your majesty and me."

When the empress heard what Chen Yi said, she knew that Chen Yi had compromised. Did that mean that she wanted to give her money?

The empress immediately became in a particularly good mood, and nodded catering to her.

"Yes, Chen Shilang is very thoughtful. I am very happy that Chen Shilang can figure this out."

Chen Yi looked at the empress who was so happy that he couldn't control himself, and Chen Yi smiled ironically in his heart. The empress is deeply poisoned, it seems that he can only draw from the bottom of the pot.

If you don't teach her the empress a lesson, the empress will not have a long memory.

And this lesson needs to be extremely profound!

"Your Majesty, don't worry, listen to the minister."

The Empress slowly returned to her original appearance, walked back to her seat, and sat down again.

I was a little upset about my gaffe just now.

"I feel that the Alchemy Pavilion is nonsense. The elixir they cultivated is impossible to live forever. If it is really possible, why don't they take it themselves?"

The empress opened her mouth, wanting to refute, but Chen Yi immediately raised her hand to stop it.

"Your Majesty, needless to say, their abilities are limited, and they don't have so many opportunities to find so many medicinal materials. These are all nonsense. If they can really practice immortality pills, and more people go to worship them, how could they possibly do so?" Is there no shortage of silver?"

When the empress heard this, she didn't know how to refute it. Listen, it seemed to be the case.

"Maybe I was called to the palace, and it was me who asked Master Chen to refine this elixir. Master Chen has never come into contact with it before, and I didn't expect that there is such a pill. I asked Master Chen to study it."

Chen Yi sighed.

"Your Majesty! I don't want to try to convince His Majesty. After all, Your Majesty has participated in this matter from beginning to end and has his own understanding. If this is the case, would Your Majesty dare to make a bet with the minister?"

The queen is a little strange.

Chen Yi suddenly made a bet with himself from the preaching mode. What was the bet on?
"Okay! Minister Chen, tell me what you want to bet on?"

A smile appeared on the corner of Chen Yi's mouth, and he looked directly at the empress above: "It's very simple, let's bet whether Master Chen can refine the immortal medicine, I bet if I can't, your Majesty can."

The empress nodded and did not refute, she said directly and loudly: "Okay, I'll bet with you."

There is no loss in this matter for the Empress.

Anyway, she always believed that Master Chen Xian could make the pill of immortality, and Master Chen told her that only two herbs were missing, so she must be very sure of it.

Otherwise, how dare Chen Xianshi say that to himself.

Although the empress didn't think this bet was meaningful, she felt that she wouldn't lose anyway, so she just took the bet.

"Chen Shilang, what's the bet?"

Chen Yi was in a very comfortable mood at this time, and the empress had already entered the set.

"The bet is simple, it's the Alchemy Pavilion."

"The Alchemy Pavilion, how can the Alchemy Pavilion be a bet? It's completely unreasonable! Besides, you want this Alchemy Pavilion, but the Alchemy Pavilion itself belongs to the widow, even if you win, the widow will have no benefit."

"Your Majesty, don't worry, please listen to me."

Chen Yi cleared his throat and said his words slowly.

"I believe that the Alchemy Pavilion is ostensibly refining elixirs for Your Majesty, but secretly embezzles money from the national treasury, emptying the national treasury. This is an unforgivable crime. If I win, Your Majesty, please take down all the people in the Alchemy Pavilion, directly interrogate and kill them, and seal them. Alchemy Pavilion."

The empress frowned, but didn't say anything.

"If your Majesty wins, then I will no longer interfere with this matter in the future. Instead, I will help your Majesty make money. I will serve your majesty in the future and will not raise any meaning."

The empress was very moved when she heard this.

Chen Yi has outstanding ability, and what is more outstanding than ability is the ability to make money.

Just like the treasury bank before, the military pay in the Northwest, and this cooperation with the second prince of the Liao Kingdom, the speed of making money is really fast, and more and more each time, so there is no need to worry about it.

The empress nodded, very supportive.

"However, how can we know whether the Alchemy Pavilion is really alchemy or whether it is a hidden evil? We always need to have a standard."

When Chen Yi said this, the empress was a little surprised.

Isn't it possible to judge the result by the efficacy of the medicine after refining the elixir of immortality?

Otherwise, the empress didn't speak, Chen Yi had already seen what he meant, and Chen Yi explained further.

"Your Majesty! I feel that we cannot judge by the efficacy of a single medicine. I also do it for your Majesty's benefit. If Master Chen Xian practices a fake elixir, there may not be anything harmful to the body. What if your Majesty takes it like this? loss……"

Although Chen Yi didn't finish speaking.

The Empress already understood, what Chen Yi meant was that if the order was fake, she might be eaten to death.

The empress felt that this was a bit exaggerated and could not be so scary.

"Your Majesty, do you think what I said is too exaggerated? This is three-point medicine, not to mention the messy shaking together. I feel that if it is light, it will be bedridden, and if it is serious, it may be fatal. The lightest, It may be that eating has no effect."

Chen Yi had a sarcastic smile on his face.

"But does your majesty think this is possible? Master Chen will wait for the medicine to be useless, and be cut into pieces by your majesty? You only have one life, and no one wants to die. If Master Chen can't practice the elixir of immortality, it may be over once and for all. Create chaos, and then take the opportunity run away."

Chen Yi saw that the empress' face had changed, so he added another sentence.

"Your Majesty, what kind of confusion do you think can make others ignore Master Chen?"

The empress had put away her previous relaxed mood and began to think about what Chen Yi said. If Master Chen really made fake medicine, she would definitely cut him into pieces.

If Chen Xianshi didn't want to die, he was lying to himself.

Or just run away in advance, find an excuse to get away, and go out for fun.

The last option is to let herself, the empress, lose her life directly. The death of the leader of a country will definitely alarm the whole court. In addition, she has no heirs. One can imagine what kind of chaos the Great Wu Congress will be by then.

By the time other people remembered Chen Xianshi, Chen Xianshi took advantage of the chaos and had already fled.

The Empress felt a little heavy, she threw these things out of her mind, Master Chen Xianshi would definitely not do this, Master Chen Xianshi would not lie.

The elixir of immortality will be refined soon, Master Chen Xianshi will not let himself down.

The empress kept comforting herself like this in her heart, then let out a long breath, and looked at Chen Yi who was standing below: "Okay, then tell me, what criteria should be used to judge?"
