Ying Zheng's heart trembled, because Ying Ziyun was right!
Indeed, when he first took the immortal pill, there was nothing unusual.
However, he gradually started to have diarrhea. Recently, his head had gone crazy, and his body had become weaker and thinner.
Originally, Ying Zheng thought that he was just weak and sickly, so he needed to eat more immortal pills to strengthen his body and even achieve immortality.
But after Ying Ziyun said that, Ying Zheng immediately realized something.
One had to know that although he was weak and sickly, he had never experienced abdominal pain and hair loss before. However, it started after he ate the immortal pill.
No matter what, this definitely had a lot to do with the Immortal Pill.
Ying Ziyun answered Ying Zheng's question.
"Reporting to Imperial Father, your son has secretly investigated this matter.”
This reason was also randomly made up by the protagonist.
In any case, as long as he reminded him of this, with Ying Zheng's brain, he would definitely be able to see through a lot of things, so there was no need to say anything more.
As long as Ying Zheng could stop taking immortal pills, he would be able to hold on for a few more years even though his body was weak.
As long as the Ancestral Dragon did not die, Great Qin would not be destroyed, and Huhai, Zhao Gao, and the others did not even dare to show their tails.
As a prince, Ying Ziyun naturally wouldn't have to worry about his life.
Moreover, with the support of the system, the protagonist would become stronger sooner or later.
At that time, dealing with Huhai and Zhao Gao would be a piece of cake.
Ying Zheng nodded slightly, feeling quite satisfied.
And now, Ying Zheng was once again seriously sizing up Ying Ziyun, as if it was the first time they had met.
Even Ying Zheng was wondering if he had really seen wrongly.
His Ninth Young Master was definitely not a bastard or a good-for-nothing. He was a person who appeared to be stupid.
Otherwise, why would he privately investigate the poison in the immortal pills in advance?
At this moment, Zhao Gao took a few steps forward and pretended to be shocked.
"Ninth Young Master, you said that the immortal pill was poisonous. Do you have any evidence?”
Zhao Gao, Xu Fu, and the other necromancers were close allies.
If the necromancer were to suffer, it was very likely that Zhao Gao would be implicated.
Therefore, he had completely forgotten about Ying Zheng's order and directly questioned it.
To be honest, Zhao Gao wasn't sure if immortal pills were poisonous.
However, Zhao Gao knew very well that the necromancers who refined these pills never ate immortal pills!
It was because Ying Zheng was obsessed with immortality, and treated these so-called immortal pills as items belonging to immortals.
Seeing Zhao Gao jump out again, Ying Ziyun didn't say anything else.
"Men, go to the imperial kitchen and catch a chicken!”
After the eunuch on duty agreed, he hurriedly ran out and went straight to the imperial kitchen.
On the contrary, Ying Zheng was a little confused.
"Yun 'er, what do you want chicken for?"
Ying Ziyun cupped his hands." Father, it's a small amount of poison in the elixir. It won't show up immediately after entering the human body."”
"But a chicken is different. It's small in size, and after consuming a large number of immortal pills in a short period of time, it'll accumulate enough poison and die immediately.”
Obviously, he was collecting evidence.
"Your Highness, the rooster is here!"
Soon, the eunuch on duty returned to the main hall with a rooster in his arms.
Before Ying Ziyun could say anything, Ying Zheng spoke.
"Men, turn all the immortal pills into powder and feed it to this chicken!”
As he spoke, Ying Zheng took out the immortal pill that he carried with him.
These were all things that he used to treat as the most precious treasures of the immortals, but now he was willing to give them to a chicken to eat.
This meant that Ying Zheng had already believed more than half of Ying Ziyun's words.
The eunuchs in the palace were quick. They quickly crushed the immortal pill into powder and fed it to the chicken.
Not long after drinking the immortal pill powder, the chicken gradually weakened.
Then, it flapped its wings vigorously, its body swayed, and finally fell to the ground.
"Humph! There is indeed a problem with the immortal pill. A mere alchemist killed me!”
"Pass down my order. Kill all 500 necromancers in Xianyang City! Don't let anyone off!"
"Especially Xu Fu, I want to tear him apart!”
While they were talking, the rooster had already died, and at this moment, Ying Zheng was truly enraged.
If Ying Ziyun had not risked his life to question him today, he would have died like that chicken in the end.
"Yes!"
As the chief justice of the Supreme Court, Meng Yi immediately accepted the order when he saw that Ying Zheng had finally given the order to kill the necromancer.
Furthermore, he did not stop for a moment and charged out with a group of people.
One had to know that when Xu Fu and the others were favored, they were able to do whatever they wanted in Xianyang and even Great Qin.
Meng Yi was promoted to the position of Chief Justice, and he was in charge of Great Qin's laws and prisons. He received countless complaints, but he could not do anything.
He had long hated it to the core, but Meng Yi did not dare to do anything since the necromancer was favored.
Now, Ying Zheng seemed to have just woken up from a dream. Meng Yi could not wait to attack the alchemist.
At this moment, Ying Zheng swept his gaze across all the princes and started lecturing them.
"My Ninth Prince risked his life to remonstrate for the country and the ruler. He is an example for Great Qin and has unparalleled courage!”
"You all have to use him as a benchmark to straighten out the rules of the court and contribute to Great Qin!”
The dumbfounded princes subconsciously realized.
"Yes!"
"Yun 'er, your advice has saved Us and Great Qin. Your contributions are greater than the heavens, so what reward do you want?”
