I sold snacks in ancient times

It was pitch black inside, and the sound of the fine rain lulled one to sleep.Qi Yongfan was so sleepy, he turned over and lay down on the bed, and said: "The fifth prince should not doubt it now."

Yin Xu propped himself up, frowned and said, "The method you came up with really works?"

"Otherwise, you've already yelled at him clearly. Could it be that he still thinks you're a man?" Qi Yongfan yawned, and added: "But I didn't expect you to yell like a woman..."

It sounds so good.Even if Qi Yongfan is gay, it doesn't matter if he just throws a stone to show his respect.

This is the only way out right now.If the Fifth Prince's suspicion cannot be dispelled, I'm afraid they will fall into an even more embarrassing situation.

Qi Yongfan drank too much wine and was so sleepy that he couldn't open his eyes. He asked in a daze, "Why does the fifth prince know that you are a man..."

"Maybe it's because of Xiao Linzi." Yin Xu said calmly.

Some things are very frightening to think about. After knowing Yin Xu's true face, Qi Yongfan suddenly said: "Xiao Linzi... Actually, you killed him, right?"

Yin Xu did not answer this question.He loosened the curtain, covered Qi Yongfan with a quilt, lay down on his side, and said calmly: "It's late at night, it's time to sleep."

Qi Yongfan fell into a deep sleep almost as soon as he closed his eyes.

Yin Xu suffered from insomnia.After confirming that the person around him was breathing smoothly, he approached cautiously, counting the number of eyelashes on the other person in a bored manner.

How long will it take?He thought about it.

Gotta go faster.Only by ascending to that supreme position... can he do what he wants to do unscrupulously.

For example, let the man beside him completely belong to him.

In the boundless night, a cruel and excited smile appeared on Yin Xu's mouth, his eyes seemed to be gazing at his lover, and also staring at the long-awaited prey like a cheetah.

……

Fast forward to September.

It's early autumn, the heat of midsummer has faded away, and the weather in Beijing is much more comfortable.Qi Yongfan thinks that the marriage is really good, he does business, eats and drinks, and there are beauties by his side at night, so don't live a carefree life.

The only thing that may dissatisfy him is the toilet.Here there are only wooden barrels, which the nobles call drowning vessels.The Princess Mansion is not short of money, and specially made several pure gold drowning utensils for the master, with soft cushions hanging on them.

After the daily convenience, there are servants to arrange cleaning.

But Qi Yongfan is still not used to it, he misses the flush toilet in his car even more.

Although the area where he lives now has expanded, and a bedroom is larger than the total area of ​​several RVs combined, but as the saying goes, the golden nest and silver nest are not as good as his own doghouse, and Qi Yongfan wants to return to Nanshan Town more and more. urgent.

But Yin Xu still wouldn't let him go.Also, they have only been married for more than ten days, if he hurried back to his hometown just after getting married, he would inevitably be criticized by others.

During these days, Qi Yongfan often followed Yin Xu into the palace to pay homage to the emperor and empress.

The queen is getting old and has a bad temper. She used to hate Yin Xu's biological mother very much, and would simply keep out of sight and out of mind when she spoke sarcasticly to them.

The emperor advocated Taoism, and practiced alchemy and asked immortals every day, but his wife devoted herself to Buddha, chanting scriptures and knocking on wooden fish when she had nothing to do, which is really ridiculous.

It has always been because of these differences in concepts that although the two husband and wife are in the palace, they have not met each other for more than ten years, and they are in a state of being inseparable from each other.

The queen's only child, the prince, passed away a few years ago, and she seemed to have nothing to ask for, and she devoted herself to the Buddha.

They just came back from the palace that day.The emperor rewarded them with two elixir made by himself, as well as some gold, silver and jewels.

The carriage was jolting and jolting.Qi Yongfan opened the exquisite jade box, took a look at the elixir, and said, "Throw it away as soon as you get back, this thing is full of heavy metals, eating it will be harmful to your body."

"Heavy metal? What is that?" Yin Xu is no longer surprised by the new words that Qi Yongfan always pops out of his mouth.

"It's like poison."

Yin Xu's complexion remained unchanged, and he said: "You don't want to say this to outsiders. Father has been immersed in alchemy for many years, and he has eaten countless batches of elixir. This elixir should not be poisonous."

Qi Yongfan couldn't help asking: "...How many years has the emperor been practicing alchemy?"

Yin Xu thought for a while and replied, "It's been 11 years."

Qi Yongfan was speechless for a moment.With the emperor's positive energy, an average batch of elixir will be born every few days. Apart from distributing it to the prince, courtiers, and favorite concubine, he swallows all the rest by himself.

After eating heavy metal for 11 years, he can still live intact until now? ?

This unscientific.

Qi Yongfan remembered that he had read an archaeological article before, which said that the elixir excavated in ancient times had been tested by pharmaceuticals and contained mercury, sulfur and other ingredients.A large number of ores with strong radiation, many ancient people used it as paint for painting, and alchemy enthusiasts like to add it to the ingredients.

Little do they know that many painters died young because of the long-term use of these pigments, the toxicity entered the body.And swallowing these things alive, isn't it courting death...

Qi Yongfan thought that maybe the alchemy formula of Dayin was different from what he knew, so he asked Yin Xu what kind of alchemy the emperor usually used for alchemy.

Yin Xu thought for a moment, and said, "I don't know too well, I heard that cinnabar, realgar, virgin moon blood, etc..."

Dansha is sulfur-containing mercury. Looking at it this way, it is true that no matter which superficial dynasty, the things that the emperor used to make alchemy were highly poisonous.

Qi Yongfan asked tactfully: "The emperor... is he in good health recently?"

Yin Xu glanced at him, and said: "Recently, I often call the imperial doctor, saying that my hands and feet are weak, I can't sleep at night, and I don't have much appetite."

Qi Yongfan recalled his ashen complexion the last time he saw the emperor, and suddenly felt that his days were numbered.Perhaps he has survived to this day because of his strong body, or because he has taken countless expensive tonics for many years.

But a large amount of toxins accumulate in the body, and one day it will burst out.

He couldn't help but said: "I read it in the book before, if you take the elixir for a long time, its toxicity will be worse than meth, and you will be poisoned in time..."

"Hush." ​​Yin Xu interrupted him, and said calmly, "We're going to the princess mansion."

"Why don't you go and talk to the emperor? Let the imperial doctor show him." Qi Yongfan was afraid that the emperor would die, and now even the crown prince has not been established, and the Great Yin is completely torn apart.Fighting for hegemony in troubled times and making a fortune in prosperous times, then his business will definitely not be able to continue.

"If what you said is true, I'm afraid it's too late now."

As soon as the words fell, the carriage stopped suddenly, and the carriage shook violently twice, and the groom in front of him shouted loudly: "It's the princess's mansion!"

Qi Yongfan opened the curtain and walked down, thinking that even in troubled times, he might just hold his nose and admit it.Who made the ticket he bought so cheap at the beginning, cheap is not good.

At least the current him has no ability to change the world.

……

As soon as I stepped into the princess mansion, there was a lot of hustle and bustle inside.A dozen middle-aged men in short cloth hexagrams were digging the ground with shovels in their hands.A large open space in front of the garden has been chewed like a dog, and the loess has been piled up into a small hillside.

Qi Yongfan was stunned. He didn't expect that the mansion would change drastically just after entering the palace. He hurriedly grabbed Yin Xu's arm and asked, "What are you going to do? Redecorate?"

Yin Xu looked at the open space in his spare time, and said, "Dig a lake out."

Qi Yongfan: "???"

"Didn't you say you want to eat red shrimp? They sent people from the outskirts of the city to bring them here, and they were all dead. Then build a lake by yourself. In the future, you can raise fish and shrimp, and fish anytime." At the end, Yin Xu Added: "It's the same as in Nanshan Town."

Qi Yongfan couldn't believe it, "You spend so much time just to fish?"

Yin Xu looked at him and said, "No, it's because you can fish."

"This, this..." Qi Yongfan just wanted to say, Your Excellency, I am so flattered.

Yin Xu answered leisurely: "Then make something delicious for me to eat."

Qi Yongfan was still very moved.He knew that Yin Xu was a man with a hard mouth and a soft heart, and it was obviously for him to dig the lake, so he still had to act like he didn't care.

He thought for a while and said, "In the future, if you want to eat late at night, just tell me."

"You cook it for me?"

Qi Yongfan: "Well, whenever."

Yin Xu pursed his lips and was speechless for a while.

The center of the Princess Mansion became a small construction site.Qi Yongfan went around in a circle. He remembered that there was a small river beside the small garden. If it could be connected with the artificial lake and divert the canal to flow out, it would not rot into a small pond.

The water in small ponds must be changed regularly, otherwise the fish and shrimp will die soon after the water quality deteriorates.

Qi Yongfan told the foreman about this idea, and he quickly got the guarantee from the other party that the artificial lake could be completely built within ten days.

Qi Yongfan did not expect that one day he would be able to live a luxurious life of digging lakes whenever he wanted.Of course, if he has the conditions in the future, he must dig a swimming pool in his small courtyard.Wouldn't it be beautiful to swim in summer and store ice in winter?

No matter how good the princess mansion is, it's not his house.It's not as good as that small dilapidated house in Nanshan Town.

He wandered aimlessly in the small garden.Yin Xu followed behind him, only half a step away.

Qi Yongfan came to the small river that led to the inner canal of the capital that day, and suddenly thought: "Why don't you put fish fry in this river?"

Yin Xu was expressionless: "The steward tried it before, and the fish was quickly washed away."

Qi Yongfan scratched his head, thinking that after the artificial lake is built, the fishing net must be sealed at the place connected with the inner canal to prevent the fish from escaping.

The weather is gradually cooling down, and it is the time to eat crabs in the golden autumn season.Most of the crabs sent from other places died on the way, and Qi Yongfan couldn't enjoy eating a few of them.

He was wandering blindly on the bridge, but he didn't expect to see a big crab on a tree by the small river.

At first, he thought that he had seen it away, but he took a closer look, and it was indeed so, so he hurriedly left Yin Xu and happily went to catch crabs.

Shake the tree, and three or four of them will fall down at once. They are big and fat, and they are very attractive to look at.Qi Yongfan quickly picked them up, tore off the grass stems and tied his claws, then turned around and proudly showed off: "I have something good to eat tonight."

Yin Xu was taken aback, "Can crabs climb trees?"

"Of course you people in the city don't know." Qi Yongfan recalled his childhood, and happily gestured: "If it was on a summer night, if you shook the tree, a dozen small crabs would fall. But now it is autumn, and the crab meat is plump. If you are lucky, there might be crab roe..."

Listening to his long talk about crabs, Yin Xu couldn't help but raise the corners of his lips.
