I am Li Shen and Li Shimin, the free kings of the Tang Dynasty

Li Shen is a hard-working person and worked hard all night to fulfill his wish.

    When I woke up in the morning, I felt like my entire soul had been drained out of me, and I felt weak and weak.

    But for his dream, he felt that everything was worth it.

    Nothing in this world is so easy to succeed.

    After washing up, Li Shen climbed into his carriage. He needed to recharge his batteries and not let his energy be wasted on useless things.

    The team broke camp and moved on.

    The route they took was Li Shen's original route, which required them to pass through Lanzhou before heading west. The wind was strong in spring and the sky was full of yellow sand.

    Li Shen did not continue to embarrass Li Tai and Li Zhi. The food, drinks and hospitality were good enough for them to spend the 30,000 yuan in travel expenses.

    ~~~~~~~~

    Chang'an City.

    Li Chengqian has been a little worried recently. Ever since Li Shimin said something from his heart to him that day,

    For some reason Li Shimin became obsessed with alchemy, and many ministers recommended some famous alchemists to him to refine elixirs for him.

    Li Chengqian guessed that his father had a lot of things to do and wanted to live longer.

    Since ancient times, emperors of all dynasties have been pursuing immortality, but who has succeeded?

    At the beginning, Emperor Qin was also looking around, fearing that Xu Fu would take three thousand boys and girls to the East China Sea to seek the elixir of Chang'an.

    In the end, there was no news.

    Li Chengqian has had a close relationship with Li Shen over the years, and Li Shen has also chatted with him many times about matters in the south, sea and north.

    He didn't know whether the elixir of life was real or not, but his younger brother, the one who knew everything about enjoyment, didn't believe in the existence of such a thing.

    Then this thing is most likely fake.

    But his father believed that anyone could advise him on this matter, but he could not.

    "Your Highness, my servant got the medicine you asked me to get."

    A eunuch came in. He was one of Wang De's godsons and was named Wang Zhong.

    Li Chengqian ordered him to secretly bring a pill.

    Li Chengqian took the bottle and poured a pill as big as a fingernail into his hand.

    When I take it to my nose and smell it, it does have a medicinal smell, but it's not very strong.

    After watching for a moment he put the pills back into the bottle.

    "Come here, prepare your horses. Just tell me that I am in a bad mood today and went to ride horses and play ball at Liushu."

    Li Chengqian stood up and ordered.

    After the horses were ready, Li Chengqian got on his horse and led his guards eastward out of Chang'an City.

    "Your Highness, where are we going?" Li Chongyi, as the military commander of the Prince's Mansion, has always been deeply trusted by Li Chengqian.

    "Go to Dongshan Medical College." Li Chengqian said expressionlessly.

    He needed to confirm something himself.

    Soon Li Chengqian arrived at the medical school, got off his horse and walked directly in.

    "Dean Sun, your Royal Highness is here."

    "Your Highness the Crown Prince?" Sun Simiao was stunned after receiving the report, then stood up and went out to greet him.

    Sure enough, as soon as he went out, he saw a group of guards surrounded by Prince Li Chengqian arriving at his door.

    "The old Taoist has met His Highness the Crown Prince." Sun Simiao bowed.

    "I've met Divine Doctor Sun." Li Chengqian was also very polite.

    Sun Simiao is a miracle doctor. These days, who can guarantee that he will not get sick or suffer from disaster? The imperial doctors in the palace are very skilled in medicine.

    But there is still a big difference compared with Sun Simiao. Sun Simiao has superb medical skills and rich experience, and many diseases may not have been seen by imperial doctors.

    Therefore, such an expert should be treated with courtesy, and he may have to ask for help in the future.

    "Your Majesty, you're welcome. Please come inside." Sun Simiao opened the door and made an inviting gesture.

    "You all wait outside." Li Chengqian turned around and gave instructions to his guards before walking in.

    Sun Simiao and his apprentice Li Xiuwei followed in.

    Li Chongyi knew that Li Chengqian wanted to have a secret talk with Sun Simiao, so he closed the door and stood waiting at the door.

    "Your Highness, please take a seat."

    After both parties sat down, Li Xiuwei began to make tea.

    "I wonder if His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has something to give during his visit today?" Sun Simiao asked first.

    "Divine Doctor Sun, I do have something to do here." He took out the bottle of the elixir and continued.

    "Divine Doctor Sun, how about you help me take a look at this elixir?"

    He did not tell the origin of this elixir, but just wanted Sun Simiao to identify the ingredients of this elixir.

    Sun Simiao took the bottle, opened it, poured out the elixir, and smelled it.

    "There should be realgar, gold, sand, and cinnamon here. I can't tell the difference from the others, but it should remain the same."

    "Snapped"

    Sun Simiao stood up, took the tools, and smashed the elixir into pieces on the table.

    He dipped a little bit on his tongue and tried it carefully. After a long while, he said:

    "Your Majesty the Crown Prince, this recipe should come from the first volume of the Yellow Emperor's Nine Cauldrons of the Divine Pill Sutra. Only by taking the golden elixir can one "be in harmony with the heavens."

    The important thing for cultivators of immortality is to collect the pure spiritual energy in the void into the body, and then combine the spiritual energy with this energy and cultivate it. After a long time, the spiritual energy will be integrated into one, and the great elixir will be completed.

    Your Highness, this medicine is the golden elixir of immortality. Could it be that Your Highness wants to become an immortal? "

    Sun Simiao was a master of alchemy. He had designed alchemy for decades. Although he no longer made alchemy after joining Li Shen's Prince Ji's Mansion, he had been studying this method.

    He just took a look and tasted it and already came to a conclusion.

    "Don't get me wrong, Doctor Sun. How can I cultivate immortality? I just got this medicine by chance, so I want to ask Doctor Sun if there will be any problems if I take this medicine."

    Li Chengqian shook his head and said with a smile.

    "So that's it. Since His Highness the Crown Prince is not cultivating immortality and seeking the Tao, the old Taoist advice advises His Highness the Crown Prince not to take it.

    Although this medicine is recorded in the Emperor's Alchemy Book, the old Taoist has studied alchemy for many years, and this medicine has no effect at all on cultivating immortality.

    If a mistake is made while refining the elixir, the result may be poison.

    I have been practicing medicine for decades, and I have heard of many fellow Taoists who died unexpectedly due to taking elixirs, but I have never heard of any fellow Taoists who took elixirs and ascended to heaven.

    Therefore, this medicine expert believes that it has no benefit to the body, but will cause harm. "

    Sun Simiao said bluntly that now he has no desires and desires. He only wants to cure diseases and save people and carry forward his medical skills, so he is not afraid of offending others.

    Sun Simiao thought that Li Chengqian was bewitched by others and wanted to use the golden elixir to achieve greatness and seek immortality.

    Li Chengqian frowned after hearing this. He didn't eat, but his father did.

    That's what worries him the most.

    "Divine Doctor Sun, what effect will this elixir have after taking it?"

    "Back to Your Highness, this elixir will calm and soothe the nerves after being taken, so many people believe that this medicine is useful.

    But there are many things in it, called...called..." Sun Simiao couldn't remember what the word was called.

    "Heavy metal." Li Xiuwei reminded him.

    "That's right, His Highness Prince Ji said it was called heavy metal exceeding the standard." Sun Simiao suddenly remembered.

    "What did the tenth brother say? He also knows the way of alchemy?" Li Chengqian was a little surprised.

    (I checked the information and found that Li Shimin was involved in alchemy very early, and he was already taking elixirs when Gao Shilian died.)
