Chapter 841: Mother and I Have Been Prepared for a Long Time

noticeably, her eyes reflecting a clear sense of pride and admiration.He truly is the kind of man she would choose. A person like Ah Yu staying in the mountains as a hunter is a real waste of talent....Fu Ming soon appeared in the front hall of Jing Wang's mansion.

Seeing Fang Jinshu's safe and sound figure, my heart suddenly relaxed.

"Are you alright"

He stepped forward and his first words were a concern that left Fang Jinshu somewhat surprised. It took her a while to react and figure out what he meant.

She thought he would be more concerned about fulfilling his promise to treat her mother, or at the very least, care about the Emperor's birthday banquet.

She had already told Fu Ming that he didn't need to prepare the tribute for the emperor himself, she would take care of it.

If we launch a day later, wouldn't that ruin a lot of things

"I'm fine, thank you for your concern, Seventh Highness."

After all, it's nice to give a polite response when someone shows concern.

Fu Ming could tell that Fang Jinxiu didn't really put her concern into her words, she was just saying thank you out of politeness.

Thanks for the polite rejection, it seems he has no hope of taking her into his inner circle.

Fu Ming had thought more than once that Fang Jinshu, despite being just a woman, was far more capable than most men.

If she were a man, Fu Ming would definitely do anything to recruit her as his strategist because she possesses both exceptional medical skills and a sharp mind.

Ke Fangjinxiu happened to be a woman, and her friendships were, in Fu Ming's eyes, not reliable or steadfast.

Partners may also turn against each other at any time due to conflicts of interest.

He cannot keep an uncertain factor, a person he doesn't trust one hundred percent, by his side.

The only way to keep her by his side and tie their interests together was to make Fang Jinshu his woman.

Unfortunately, Fu Ming knew this path wouldn't work either.

This wasn't about love. He knew he didn't have the ability to force the woman before him.

"It's alright then."

Fu Minglian lowered his eyes, putting away the thousands of thoughts in his heart. He didn't show any sign on his face that he had come up with so many ideas about Fang Jinshu in such a short time.

"Is the Imperial Father's birthday banquet ready"

Fan Jinshi nodded, then looked towards Mingyue. Mingyue understood and walked forward, holding the box in her hand. She then slowly opened it.

This is a pill for longevity.

Although it can't grant immortality, it can give your body a more vibrant and youthful vitality than your peers.

"Simply put, eating it in the long term can make you look younger than your peers."

"I think your father would love this present."

The box in Mingyue's hand still held a delicate small round box, which was also open.

Inside the silk cushion, there were seven white pills of uniform size, each one seeming to emit a faint glow. They resembled sesame seeds in shape and size.

He stared straight ahead for a long moment before finally lifting his head.

"Is this thing really as magically effective as you said"

"Fāng Jǐnxù picked up a single one, "You don't believe me Try it yourself first."

“This is for the emperor. Do you think I have the guts to forge it”

Besides, with my abilities, I wouldn't need to fabricate anything.

Fu Ming nodded. "That's true."

He shouldn't doubt Fang Jinxiu's abilities. He didn't even know how many times he had witnessed her incredible medical skills and pharmaceutical expertise.

At first hearing about the effects of this pill, Fu Ming still found it incredible.

"There's really a medicine in this world that can make people young again," he stared at the pill and sighed.

Upon hearing this, Fang Jinshu's tea almost shot out of her mouth.

"It's not that exaggerated."

"At most, it's a health supplement."

Enriched with spring water, an upgraded version of health supplements.

For her, making it wasn't difficult nor was it anything special, but for others, it was indeed a rare treasure.

After all, who doesn't want to look younger Especially those in power.

Fang Jinxiu could imagine that once Fu Ming presented this medicine at the banquet, people in the palace would be extremely eager for it afterward.

Fu Ming's status would undergo a drastic change overnight.

Just as Fang Jinshu could think of, Fu Ming naturally thought of it too.

"Seventh Prince, have you thought this through Once you offer up this medicine, you'll never have the carefree life you do now."

"As a result, your mother concubine will also be dragged into the power struggle among the concubines."

The Seventh Prince's mother was born into a humble family and hasn't even received a formal title to this day. Anyone the emperor disfavors ends up in such a pitiful state.

Her status as a concubine is only slightly better than that of eunuchs and palace maids, after all, she gave birth to a prince.

Fu Ming picked up the original box containing the pills, his palm suddenly clenching.

He wanted to live, to no longer be bullied, to pick up the dignity that was rightfully his.

"Mother and I have been prepared for this a long time." look of extreme caution."Psst! Someone's here."Zong Bai froze in place, unable to move. He held his breath, his only movement being the swiveling of his two eyes as he observed his surroundings.Zhao...
