The legitimate daughter was reborn, and the emperor’s little Jiaojiao went crazy.

In fact, what is more terrifying than following the old path of the previous life is that after Cen Yuan and Shi Anxia were reborn and changed the fate of many people, some people were unable to attack Emperor Mingde and could only use more terrifying means to push Beiyi into the abyss.

Fu Shou Gao is one of them.

Shi Anxia said leisurely, "Imagine if everyone ingested the longevity cream, what kind of disaster would that be?"

Is there any need to imagine? Cen Yuan was silent.

A large amount of gold and silver flowed out, drug addicts were everywhere, selling their children, wives, and daughters, and half of the officials could not stand up when they went to court. The quality of the people was getting worse and worse, the soldiers in the army did not want to train, and smoke filled the tents.

They couldn't think of anyone else who would do this except the Queen Mother's camp.

In fact, the palace had recently relaxed its guard over the Empress Dowager. The Li family was also carefully placing people there. Emperor Mingde had turned a blind eye and was too lazy to expose the truth.

But no one expected that the Queen Mother would choose to destroy the North Wing.

In the previous life, the Empress Dowager could at least hold the North Wing in her hands, and she would not want to take this step. Even if Emperor Rongguang could not resist the temptation and still took the Fu Shou Cream, it was only a small-scale corruption and destruction.

In this life, it is obvious that the Empress Dowager cannot touch Emperor Mingde, so she has to use external forces to drag the entire northern wing into the mud, so that she can take advantage of the situation and push Prince Jin onto the throne.

Cen Yuan closed her eyes gently, and when she opened them again, her eyes were clear and resolute, "Drug prohibition is imperative."

With a clear goal and direction, he ruffled the girl's hair and said, "Don't worry about it. I'll go."

The Imperial Examination Hall has been fully opened recently, and Tang Xinghe and others are almost living on the arena every day.

After one match after another, these guys who only know how to talk on paper have accumulated a lot of experience in dealing with situations. This is also the original intention of Cen Yuan to propose the opening of the competition.

However, he did not expect that he was not here today to check on the students' training results, but to observe whether anyone had taken anything similar to the longevity paste.

After watching many competitions over the past few days, Cen Yuan had more or less an idea of ​​what was going on.

Except for Hong Fei who came from Huizhou and made threats earlier, the rest were all roving soldiers and generals, most of whom were self-taught.

Some of them were not eligible to participate in the martial arts examination because of their ancestors' mistakes or because of their slavery. After learning about the competition, these people all wanted to become famous in one battle and came to fight for their future with a try-it attitude.

Tang Xinghe and the others have become very proficient in the competitions that have been going on for several days, and their skills are improving day by day.

The tricks that I couldn't use before have gradually become easier for me to use after practicing.

The challenge of Jianghu people is different from that of martial arts candidates. They can challenge multiple times, and Cen Yuan is waiting for those who lose and want to make a comeback.

If you lose and refuse to accept the result, you will be manipulated by others and become someone else's pawn.

Cen Yuan set up a dragnet to catch all these pawns. He would catch them one by one, so that the people behind them would not dare to harm the people and the officials with weak will.

But before they caught the man, a fire broke out in the backyard.

That day, Lu Sangyu came back from work and was about to have dinner with his mother, but he found the stove was cold and his mother was nowhere to be seen.

At first, he thought his mother had gone out shopping.

His mother didn’t know how to cook Beijing snacks, so sometimes when he was off duty, she would go to the street corner to buy some of his favorite Beijing snacks and bring them back to enjoy with him.

Lu Sangyu didn't see her mother and didn't care at first, especially since the tea on the table was still hot.

He poured himself a cup of hot tea and took out a new newspaper to read.

He was so absorbed in watching that it was getting dark. When he looked up, dusk was falling.

But his mother was still nowhere to be seen, so he panicked and got up to go out to look for her.

Just as he was about to leave, he found a note beside his feet, which read: If you want your mother to live, come to Furong Tower alone. Don't play tricks. Once we find out that you are looking for Princess Haiyan and her husband, we will kill your mother immediately.

There was also a lock of black hair placed together with the note.

Lu Sangyu's whole body was cold, and her hands holding the note were shaking.

Will the mother be scared?

Did they do anything to their mother?

Who wanted to deal with him and took his mother away?

A series of questions made him unable to think quietly. He slammed the door hard with his hand, then turned around to close the gate and locked it.

Lu Sangyu walked with heavy steps to Furong Tower alone.

An old man selling candied haws came over and asked, "Are you Mr. Lu?"

Lu Sangyu glanced at the old man and nodded woodenly, "Yes."

The old man said, "Someone left a letter here and asked me to pass it to you."

Lu Sangyu took the letter and opened it. In addition to the letter, there was also a strand of hair. The letter still had the same words, but the location had changed to a restaurant.

He looked at the old man, wanting to ask what the man who left the letter here looked like. But the words came to his lips, and he swallowed them back.

The old man seemed to know what he wanted to ask, so he explained, "It was a letter brought by a child."

Lu Sangyu's fingers holding the letter trembled slightly, and she ran as fast as she could towards the designated restaurant.

It took so much trouble, we went through four or five trips and changed several locations.

The sky was completely shrouded in darkness, and Lu Sangyu was on the verge of collapse.

Mother!

He would never forgive himself if anything happened to his mother because of him.

He had to stay calm and not panic, absolutely not panic.

When I followed the note and went to the last teahouse, it turned out to be Jing'an Teahouse.

When Lu Sangyu stepped into the teahouse, the waiters inside had been replaced by a new group.

The guy didn't know him and he didn't know anyone familiar with him.

He just walked in woodenly, ready to receive the next letter. But unexpectedly, the waiter asked, "Are you Mr. Lu? Please follow me."

Following the waiter upstairs, Lu Sangyu stepped into the house and took a look... and was immediately stunned.

It was the person in the room who spoke first, "Sir Lu, what do you need to meet here for?"

"Master Lu, you are so mysterious, but you still invite us for tea?"

"Why don't you see Lord Cen? Did you make an appointment with Lord Cen?"

The people who were speaking were several colleagues from the Northern Propaganda Department. Everyone was talking at the same time, leaving Lu Sangyu at a loss as to where to start.

If he gets the answer wrong, his mother will be in danger!

Lu Sangyu looked around, not daring to act rashly, and kept a calm smile, "Originally, I had some official business to discuss with you, but it's all settled. Everyone, go home now."

Everyone was stunned.

Lu Sangyu didn't care what those people thought, and strode downstairs to ask the steward, "Is there a letter for me?"

The waiter was surprised, "Master Lu, how did you know there was a letter?"

Lu Sangyu's face turned pale and he reached out his hand, "Quick, bring it here."

Seeing that the master looked unhappy, the waiter did not dare to delay, let alone say anything idle, and hurriedly presented the letter.

This time, there was only a letter in the envelope, no hair.

Lu Sangyu hurriedly finished reading the letter, folded it into her sleeve, glanced at the waiter, but ultimately did not dare to say anything.

At this point, he didn't know who to trust.

The next stop is... Furong Tower, which was exactly where he went first.

Lu Sangyu was walking on the path, feeling extremely anxious as curfew was approaching.

He was walking along the road with big strides when suddenly a gust of wind blew from behind him, and he felt a pain in the back of his neck and fainted.

When he woke up again, he didn't know where he was. He just heard a familiar humming sound in his ears. He was filled with ecstasy and blurted out, "Mother!"
