The fool has become a spirit, and she can speak

Chapter 1273 Tonic

"Hmm?" The old butler immediately heard that something was wrong!

Cheng Feng saw the old housekeeper's expression changing little by little. He put his arm around the old housekeeper's shoulders and whispered, "It's okay without the prescription. I'll go back first. Don't tell my uncle that I've been here."

Then Cheng Feng walked away with his mouth raised high. The old housekeeper trotted after Cheng Feng and said, "Sir, please explain clearly. How did the medicine end up in your stomach?"

Cheng Feng knew that he had achieved his goal. He took bigger steps without even turning his head. It was obvious how the drink got into his stomach. He must have been forced to drink it. With his physique, did he need to take tonics? The one who tricked him in various ways was his uncle. If his uncle hadn't come back to settle the score with him, Cheng Feng really wanted to see how the old butler would scold his uncle!

The old butler jogged all the way but failed to catch up with Cheng Feng. He watched Cheng Feng slip away right under his nose. He probably knew what was going on. Cheng Feng had come to him specifically to complain, and he couldn't ignore it. However, he intervened in this matter not to stand up for Cheng Feng, but to find out why Wan Lianxing didn't drink the tonic.

He didn't appreciate the flowers anymore because he wasn't in the mood!

He walked hurriedly to the Palace of Tranquil Longevity, wanting to find Wan Lianxing. He would definitely find him here, because this man was indeed very busy with government affairs. He had to read memorials from all sides for several hours every day, so he often suspected that he was the most tired person in the entire palace.

Before meeting Wan Lianxing, the old butler adjusted his mood, put on a smiling face, and then walked in briskly.

When he entered, Wan Lianxing was reviewing memorials without even raising his head. The old butler did not have the heart to disturb him. Since becoming the monarch here, this man has never been lazy or slack. The throne is like an invisible shackle that shackles Wan Lianxing and makes him dare not act arbitrarily and lawless like he did in the past.

The old butler picked up the fan and fanned Wan Lianxing slowly. Wan Lianxing already felt that it was the old butler, so he said, "You are so old now, you should enjoy your old age and stop thinking about serving me all the time."

The old housekeeper retorted, "How can that be possible? As for your food, clothing, shelter and transportation, how can I not worry about it?"

Wan Lianxing shook his head helplessly, what a stubborn old man, he wouldn't listen.

The old housekeeper looked at Wan Lianxing and couldn't help asking, "Your Majesty, how was the effect of the medicine last night?"

"What medicine is that?"

"It's the bowl of nourishing medicine I asked the servant to bring you!"

"You mean that bowl of tonic... that bowl of tonic..." Wan Lianxing thought for a moment and said in a fake tone, "That is definitely a bowl of good medicine! But there is one bad thing about this medicine!"

"What's not good about it?"

"It's just too strong. By the way, didn't you lie at my door and eavesdrop last night? You should understand what I mean!"

The old butler looked at Wan Lianxing with a look of "you know what I mean" and felt so angry that his teeth were itching. However, he didn't want to expose him now. If he wanted to act, then let him do it. Cheng Feng was able to drink the medicine for him yesterday, so tonight he would see how Wan Lianxing could escape from that bowl of medicine.

At noon, the old butler went there personally with a bowl of medicine. Wan Lianxing had already taken off his outer coat. If Suiying and Suixing had not reported something to him, he would have probably gone to bed by now. After all, he got up earlier than the chickens every day, so he naturally could not go to bed too late.

Looking at the bowl of medicine in the old butler's hand, Wan Lianxing moved his Adam's apple reflexively. He was a little afraid of taking the medicine. After all, this was not an ordinary bowl of medicine.

However, Wan Lian Guild was able to conceal it, and he could pretend to be normal. He smiled and said to the old housekeeper, "Old housekeeper, Suiying and I have something to discuss. Please leave the medicine, and I will drink it later. It's getting late. You are old, you should go back and rest early. In the future, you can just send a servant to do this kind of thing, and don't do everything yourself."

The old butler also smiled and said, "Your Majesty, I am old and I am getting less and less sleep. You don't have to worry about me. I usually go to bed later than you!"

After hearing this, Wan Lianxing's mind turned again, "Put the medicine here, I will drink it after I discuss important matters with Suiying and Suixing!"

The old butler did not put down the medicine bowl in his hand. He looked at Wan Lianxing with a smile and said earnestly, "Your Majesty, there is not much medicine, just drink it in a few gulps. I guess you won't be able to finish your meeting for a while. By the time you drink it, the medicine will be cold. Please listen to my advice and drink the medicine first. After drinking it, I will leave immediately and will not disturb you guys' meeting."

At this time, Suiying echoed, "Yes, Your Majesty, please drink the medicine first. If the medicine gets cold, it will affect its efficacy!"

Wan Lianxing rolled his eyes at Suiying and said, "Do you know what this medicine is? Just urge me to drink it!"

"Isn't it for regulating the stomach and intestines? Didn't you feel stomach discomfort yesterday?"

"It would be nice if it was a herbal medicine for treating gastrointestinal problems. This is the tonic that Yan Shizhao prescribed for me. It's a great tonic."

When he heard that it was a tonic, Suiying lifted his chin and laughed, "Your Majesty, you just got married, it's only right that you take some tonic. The old butler is really capable and has arranged the tonic for you. Please drink it quickly and don't let the old butler down!"

With no other options, Wan Lianxing took the medicine bowl from the old housekeeper and slowly stirred the herbs in the bowl with a spoon in one hand. Suddenly, he had an idea and said, "Hey, this is medicine. You two can help me try it!"

Suixing immediately took a step back, and his meaning was very clear, that is, he could not try this medicine, and if he wanted to try it, let Suiying try it.

Suiying also shook his head and took a step back: "Your Majesty, I can't do this either!"

Wan Lianxing immediately reprimanded them with sharp words, "I have raised you for so many years, but you are of no use at the critical moment!"

Suiying said, "Your Majesty, it's not that Suixing and I are not righteous. This is a tonic. Suixing and I are both bachelors. We are just like you and we are clean. If we drink this medicine tonight, where will you let us brothers go to get our fix? Tonics are not a joke!" After saying this, Suiying shook his head vigorously and added firmly, "Absolutely not. Suixing and I cannot drink this medicine on behalf of others!"

Wan Lianxing said: "If no one tries the medicine, can I drink it?"

The old housekeeper saw that this person was looking for trouble. But he was not worried. He had his own way of dealing with Wan Lianxing, and he was not afraid that Wan Lianxing would not listen to his advice.

The old butler smiled and said, "I watched the palace maid prepare this medicine myself, and I brought it here myself. I didn't pass it along to anyone else. Your Majesty can rest assured about its safety. If Your Majesty must assign someone to test the medicine, then I am willing to test the medicine for you." As he spoke, the old butler extended his hand to Wan Lianxing.
