Reborn to abuse the scumbag, the demon queen destroyed her ex-husband's entire family

Pei Yun was respectful to the emperor, but he didn't care about Taoist Qingxu. The reason was that he was a doctor, but Taoist Qingxu entered the palace in the name of immortality.

In Pei Yun's eyes, prolonging life is fine, but immortality is a joke.

Taoist Qingxu could sense Pei Yun's disdain for him. His narrow and long phoenix eyes flickered as he raised his arm. He chuckled and said, "Doctor Pei, why do you have to belittle yourself? I think your medical skills have reached perfection. If you really enter the palace, you can be the head of the Imperial Hospital!"

This evaluation was quite high for Pei Yun, and even the emperor couldn't help but turn his head and look at Taoist Qingxu.

However, he didn't say anything, as if he tacitly agreed with what Taoist Qingxu said.

Pei Yun raised his eyes and glanced at Taoist Qingxu. He chuckled and bowed to the emperor, "Now that the emperor is still here, do you dare to make decisions for him?"

Xiao Ruge was leaning on Mu Gu to save her energy when she suddenly heard Pei Yun's powerful speech. She almost gave him a thumbs up in person.

He is worthy of being the number one among the disciples of Wuai Mountain. He speaks with sharp words and never beats around the bush!

As soon as these words were spoken, Taoist Qingxu and the emperor both changed color.

The former's face instantly turned gloomy, while the latter looked at the former with great suspicion, and then glared at Pei Yun with some anger.

"How dare you! Are you trying to sow discord between me and Taoist Qingxu?"

"I dare not. I am just expressing my opinion. I beg Your Majesty to forgive me!"

Seeing that the emperor was angry, Pei Yun kowtowed and admitted his mistake no matter who he was directed at.

When Xiao Ruge saw this, she slid off her chair and knelt on the ground to plead for Pei Yun.

“Your Majesty, Doctor Pei didn’t know the rules when he first entered the palace. Please don’t blame him. After all, he saved my life. If he is punished for this, I’m afraid the people will think that Your Majesty is mistreating the orphan of a meritorious official!”

The emperor was so angry at what Xiao Ruge said that it was choked in his throat, and he felt extremely uncomfortable.

Taoist Qingxu originally wanted to give some advice, but then he thought of what Pei Yun had just said, and was afraid that the emperor would be suspicious of him, so he fell silent in an instant.

His plan has not been completed yet, and he can't be rejected by the emperor so early.

As soon as Xiao Ruge knelt down, Mu Gu followed suit and knelt down, "Father, please forgive him for his recklessness this time, for the sake of Doctor Pei saving my future daughter-in-law!"

The emperor was so angry that he couldn't vent it, and felt even more aggrieved. He narrowed his eyes and looked at the two people kneeling there, with rage raging in his eyes.

But he had to admit that what Xiao Ruge said made sense, but he still wanted to know the whereabouts of the boat.

So he suppressed his anger and asked in a cold voice: "Xiao Ruge, I only have one question for you, where is the boat?"

Xiao Ruge seemed to be stunned for a moment, and said innocently: "My master is naturally in Wuai Mountain. My master has not come down the mountain for many years. Even during the snowstorm in Qizhou this time, it was the brothers on the mountain who were ordered to go down the mountain to rescue people."

Seeing that the emperor remained silent, she didn't know whether he had listened or not, but Xiao Ruge still had to say what she should say.

"Master once swore that unless there was a disaster, he would never step out of Wuai Mountain in his lifetime. Moreover, Wuai Mountain is thousands of miles away from Kyoto. Even if Master knew that I was poisoned, I am afraid he would not be able to get here in time."

The emperor's expression was gloomy and unclear, but he didn't say anything in the end. Anyway, he had already sent Li Zhong to find out the truth. He would know whether what Xiao Ruge said was true or not when he came back.

There was a silence in Chonghua Palace for a long time, and then the emperor said to Xiao Ruge and Mu Gu, "It's rare for you two to enter the palace together. Concubine Zhao has always been thinking about Xiao Ruge. You should go to Zhaoyang Palace at noon, and it won't be too late to leave after lunch."

After saying that, he looked at Pei Yun again, "As for you..."

The low and old voice suddenly paused, and Pei Yun's heart couldn't help but rise.

Just when he felt that he was doomed and was afraid of being punished, the emperor finally spoke with mercy.

"Pei Yun's contribution to the treatment of the orphans of meritorious officials is comparable to Hua Tuo in the world, and he is comparable to the genius doctor Bian Zhou. He is specially awarded the plaque of 'The Reincarnation of the Miraculous Doctor' and a reward of a thousand gold coins!"

There was a calculating smile on the corner of his mouth, which finally relieved some of the depression in his heart.

Didn't Xiao Ruge say that her master would never come down the mountain again? If that was the case, then his title of miracle doctor was useless, so he might as well use it as a favor to himself.

Pei Yun was startled and kowtowed hurriedly, "Your Majesty, you are too kind. My medical skills are far inferior to those of the miracle doctor. How can I be worthy of the title of 'the reincarnation of the miracle doctor'?"

"Hey, Doctor Pei, if I say you deserve it, then you deserve it! Well, I'm tired too, you can leave now!"

The emperor did not give Pei Yun any chance to refuse. He waved at the three people and asked the eunuch to take them away.

After leaving Chonghua Palace, Pei Yun went to see Xiao Ruge with a sad face and asked in a low voice: "Uncle Master, what should I do? How can I be worthy of the title of Grand Master?"

Xiao Ruge sighed, "The Emperor did this just to disgust Master, but Master is open-minded, he won't blame you, just relax and continue."

It is said that the emperor's order cannot be disobeyed. Now there is no other way to solve this problem except to accept it. In the end, Pei Yun had to leave the palace with a box of gold.

As for the plaque, they would naturally wait until the craftsmen in the palace finished making it, and then send it to Pei Yun's pharmacy with drums and gongs.

After the plaque was delivered, Pei Yun's pharmacy immediately became packed with customers and he was so busy the whole day that he had to hire two more doctors to see patients before he could barely keep up.

Of course, these are all things that happened later. Pei Yun is still in a gloomy mood, while Xiao Ruge and Mu Gu followed the emperor's instructions and went to Zhaoyang Palace.

Let’s not talk about how distressed Concubine Zhao felt when she saw Xiao Ruge, let’s just say that after the three of them left, Chonghua Palace fell silent again.

The emperor kept staring at Taoist Qingxu. No one knew what he was thinking and the expression on his face changed again and again.

Taoist Qingxu seemed to be sipping tea, but in fact he was keeping an eye on the situation on the emperor's side. When he felt a murderous intent emanating from the emperor, he was suddenly shocked.

"I got a book of alchemy secrets a while ago, but unfortunately, it is a fragmentary copy. It records many methods of refining ancient elixirs."

Sure enough, when the emperor heard this, the murderous aura on his body melted away like ice and snow in an instant, disappearing without a trace.

"Is there any elixir that can make you immortal?"

When discussing the method of immortality with Taoist Qingxu, the emperor never avoided any comments.

After all, he brought Taoist Qingxu into the palace just to let him make pills for him, and even he...

The emperor seemed to remember something bad, and the corners of his mouth twitched unconsciously, but Taoist Qingxu didn't see it.

He was just thinking about the ancient books. He did get an ancient book on alchemy, but this ancient book only had the first half, not the second half.
