Sitting on the chair, Luo Qingluan just held his chin with one hand, and stared straight at the pot of grass without blinking.
Time passed little by little, and her expression did not change at all, this appearance made others seem to be wasting time, and made the royal family of Western Chu officials worried. The people of the Dongwan Mission were secretly happy, and the corners of their mouths were about to crack to their ears, and they almost laughed.
They've already lost once, and they can't afford to lose again, but as things stand, they're going to win this game!
Even some impatient people have already begun to talk to each other.
"Hey, can you guess this princess of Chu?"
"Can a guess work!? I bet she wouldn't recognize it, staring at the pot of grass for so long without speaking, and now she must be just pretending, lest she lose her hair. โ
โฆโฆ
Words like this continued one after another, which made the hearts of the ministers of Western Chu, who originally felt that the victory was in their hands, sink suddenly. Yes, they know how superb Princess Chu's medical skills are, but curing diseases does not mean that they can identify all herbs. There are thousands of things in the world, how can it be said that mortals can discern everything? If Princess Chu really recognized it, she would have given the answer a long time ago, where would she think about it for so long?
The hearts of the ministers also gradually sank, and they were worried.
Fortunately, it's just those ministers who are worried, like Emperor Western Chu, King Chu, Su Yi, etc., including Nangong Yu, these people are not worried at all.
Several people were full of confidence, sitting in their seats with relaxed faces, and whispering from time to time. Seeing that His Majesty, the Queen Mother and the prince were not worried at all, the ministers also held back their anxious mood, and silently muttered in their hearts that they wanted to believe in their princess Chu.
And Luo Qingluan's eyes here were fixed, but his heart was suspicious.
She didn't recognize what the grass was, and she recalled all the contents of all the medical books she had read. But he was surprised to find that none of the books mentioned this kind of grass, and Luo Qingluan almost thought that he would really lose.
But the thought also flashed, and although she couldn't guess what the grass was, it didn't become discouraged, but aroused her curiosity.
Along with curiosity comes an obsession, Luo Qingluan secretly decided, even if she can't recognize the origin and efficacy of this herb, she has this opportunity today, she must confirm it.
Glancing at Lu Zhaohong, Luo Qingluan also thought a little higher about him in his heart, but he didn't expect that this old man who was not amazing and had a big temper could still get such a rare thing, and it seemed that he also had a bit of background.
While thinking, Luo Qingluan leaned closer to the grass, wanting to take a closer look, she wanted to take a closer look at its leaves, but she didn't want to just stretch out her hand, but she was blocked by Lu Zhaohong, who had been standing on the side and staring at her closely: "Princess Chu, stop!" โ
Luo Qingluan frowned tightly and said, "Imperial Doctor Lu, what do you mean by this?" โ
Lu Zhaohong realized that his tone just now was a little excessive, and when he looked around, he met Nalan Ye's eyes like ice slag, as if he was warning Lu Zhaohong that if he didn't give a satisfactory answer, it would be better for him to live than to die.
Lu Zhaohong's heart was shocked, and he hurriedly shook at Luo Qingluan, then straightened up and said: "Princess Chu, don't be weird, this thing is really precious, and at present, the entire Dongwan has only found such one, in case it is broken, the contemptible person can't afford it." โ
Hearing him say this, Luo Qingluan's face softened a lot, and Lu Zhaohong also obviously felt that the knife-like eyes that fell on him also disappeared, and he couldn't help but secretly raise his sleeve to wipe the sweat on his head.
thought that he really didn't let himself touch this grass because it was too precious, Luo Qingluan felt that it was also reasonable, but she suddenly recalled that when Lu Zhaohong said these words, his eyes were a little strange, as if he was hiding something, and he was a little weak-hearted, plus he had just wiped his sweat......
All of this is to say that there is something wrong with this grass.
As soon as his heart moved, Luo Qingluan no longer approached, and only carefully observed with his eyesight.
This time she really found some problems, Luo Qingluan found that the red fruit on this grass was slightly dry, and the state was like a lack of water. But Lu Zhaohong clearly said that this thing is extremely precious, why can't he take care of it?
As if thinking of something, Luo Qingluan deliberately looked at Lu Zhaohong with a solemn face and said, "Imperial Doctor Lu, I look at this precious grass, I'm afraid that the piece is going to die, it's a pity, it's a pity." โ
"Princess Chu, what nonsense are you talking about!" Lu Zhaohong instantly looked like a cat whose tail had been stepped on.
With a faint smile, Luo Qingluan continued without flinching: "I'm not talking nonsense, this grass is indeed a precious anomaly, but it is obviously not properly taken care of by you, so tyrannical and devastating!" You see, the skin of the fruit on this grass is a little dry, and it is obviously caused by lack of water. Imperial Physician Lu, don't you even arrange personal care for this grass? โ
I didn't expect Luo Qingluan to say this, and he even saw these things in his sharp eyes, and for a while, the expression on Lu Zhaohong's face was very weird. His lips squirmed a few times, trying to say something, but in the end nothing came out.
Looking at Luo Qingluan's smiling eyes, Lu Zhaohong seemed to be a little annoyed and angry: "Princess Chu, we are in a competition now, instead of letting you care about whether I take care of this grass or not, please let Princess Chu say the name of this herb." As long as you can recognize it, even if I lose, if I can't say it, then you can admit defeat as soon as possible, and don't waste everyone's time here. โ
As soon as his words fell, Luo Qingluan spoke: "I have long seen that the precious grass that Imperial Physician Lu said is actually not a medicinal herb at all, but it is really rare, and it is thanks to Imperial Physician Lu that he can get his hands on it." โ
These words immediately made Lu Zhaohong's heart hang, and the whole person froze in place.
"Princess Chu, please be careful."
In the middle of the sound, Lu Zhaohong barely calmed down, and a bad premonition had already risen in his heart.
Luo Qingluan looked at his nervous appearance, chuckled lightly and continued: "If you want me to say, in fact, this grass is something that Imperial Doctor Lu made up by himself, right?" If you look closely, you will definitely find it. Imperial Physician Lu grafted the roots of white ginseng and the leaves of Gu Molan, and even transplanted the fruit of a water xunzi with great care, tsk...... This princess has to sigh here that Imperial Doctor Lu is really clever and painstaking! โ
Luo Qingluan's words were sarcastic, but his face was smiling, and after finishing speaking, he hugged his fist at Imperial Doctor Lu to express his admiration.
This move directly made Lu Zhaohong's face red, and before he could say anything, Luo Qingluan spoke again: "If Imperial Physician Lu has to ask me what this grass is called, then the princess can only give it a random name, then ...... Is it better to call it 'chaos', or 'four dislikes'? Doctor Lu, which of these two names do you think is more suitable? โ
Hearing this, Lu Zhaohong couldn't hold back any longer, and his whole face was red.
I don't know if it's because of annoyance and anger, he suddenly thought of what kind of consequences he would bear if this matter was discovered. didn't care about anything, he directly pointed at Luo Qingluan and roared: "Princess Chu, don't talk nonsense and wronged people!" I respect you as the princess of a country, but you can't slander me like this, it seems that the ancients said that only villains and women are difficult to raise! โ
Luo Qingluan put away his smile, hooked the corners of his lips, and said with a cold face: "It seems that Imperial Doctor Lu doesn't recognize it?" Well, there are so many pairs of eyes watching at the scene, I'll prove it myself! โ
"What do you want to do!" Taking a step forward, Lu Zhaohong stared at Luo Qingluan vigilantly.
"Of course, to prove that I'm not telling my word! If I don't prove it, then my reputation in the Western Chu Kingdom will not be saved, so I can only wronged you Imperial Doctor Lu, tired! Get out of the way! โ
In the last few words, Luo Qingluan had already accentuated his tone, and his face was cold.
"No, this is the most precious medicinal herb in our country, if Princess Chu does something to the medicinal herb, can you take this responsibility!" Can you still compensate for the same herb? When he said this, Lu Zhaohong's face was nervous, and he seemed to be anxious about Luo Qingluan's reckless behavior, but in fact, his heart was already in chaos, and cold sweat broke out behind his back.
I didn't expect Luo Qingluan to be so powerful, and he couldn't find the problem without touching this grass. Lu Zhaohong only felt uneasy, but now he can only try to save his face.
"If this grass is really very precious, then all the responsibility is borne by this princess, can you let it go now!"
Luo Qingluan's voice was clear and beautiful, so he was not timid, and when he said this, the whole person was imposing, which directly made Lu Zhaohong stunned for a moment.
While Lu Zhaohong was stunned, Luo Qingluan directly grabbed the grass and pulled it out of the flower pot with a single effort. A pod of dirt was brought up and scattered everywhere, and the spectators were stunned.
By the time Lu Zhaohong reacted, it was already too late, Luo Qingluan had already pulled out the grass and held it in his hand, looking at it over and over again.
Lu Zhaohong's pupils shrank, and he roared angrily before rushing over: "Give it back to me, stop!" โ
"You're weak-hearted, aren't you?" Luo Qingluan shrank his hand and hid the grass behind his back, Lu Zhaohong pounced, and Luo Qingluan took the opportunity to flash to the side, with a mocking face. Lu Zhaohong was even more panicked, and rushed over to snatch it directly, and the two of them fought in front of everyone and refused to give in to each other.
The people around were a little far away, and they didn't hear what Lu Zhaohong and Luo Qingluan were saying clearly. They only saw that Luo Qingluan pulled out the precious herbs brought by Imperial Physician Lu without saying a word, and now the two of them are snatching them in public, it's just a mess, where is there a competition?
All the Dongwan were angry, and they collectively stood up from their seats, and one of them pointed to the audience with an angry face and said, "Your Majesty, this is too much. Princess Chu, what does this mean!? If you can't guess it, forget it, you actually deliberately destroyed the precious herbs, is this the way you compete in the Western Chu Kingdom! โ
"Yes! Princess Chu is still dignified, in fact, she can't guess it at all, so she deliberately destroyed Imperial Doctor Lu's precious herbs, which is really the most poisonous woman's heart! โ
