Chapter 43: I'm Only Five Years Old

Seeing the puzzled gaze of the head of the royal courtyard, Sheng Zhiyao didn't explain much, but asked the maid to fetch a basin of water and put it next to her, and after soaking the silk handkerchief stained with poison powder in the water for a few seconds, Sheng Zhiyao poured out the water, and then continued to take out a herb and soaked the silk handkerchief stained with poison for a few seconds.

Wang Yuanshou still looked confused, he really couldn't understand what was the use of Sheng Zhiyao doing this.

Seeing such a situation, the head of the royal court finally couldn't help but ask: "County Lord, please forgive the old minister for being blunt, what are you doing here?" ”

"Hehe, don't worry." Sheng Zhiyao said with a smile.

Seeing Sheng Zhiyao's performance, Wang Yuanshou was even more convinced of her own judgment in her heart, she didn't know these herbs, or she didn't know them all.

Sheng Zhiyao put away the silk handkerchief and put it on the table, picked up the pen and quickly wrote the name of the herb on the paper, and even wrote down the effects and functions and handed it to the head of the royal courtyard.

Wang Yuanshou was surprised when he saw this prescription, but he quickly regained his composure, he looked at the paper in his hand, and carefully examined it in the hope of finding something wrong, but found that it was not.

"Head of the Royal Academy, how is it?" Sheng Zhiyao asked with a smile.

"The county lord is really knowledgeable, and he actually knows so much about herbs, which is really embarrassing for the old minister!" The head of the royal courtyard hurriedly praised.

"Hehe, where, where! The royal court won the first prize. Sheng Zhiyao smiled and shook his head.

Wang Yuanshou looked at Sheng Zhiyao's face, and always felt that she was perfunctory.

"Since I guessed your medicine, I'll change it for you." Sheng Zhiyao asked with a smile.

"Okay, since the county lord is so interested, then the old man is better to be respectful, what kind of medicine does the county lord want the old man to see?" The head of the royal courtyard asked with a solemn face.

Sheng Zhiyao took out a porcelain vase from his cuff and put it on the table in front of Wang Yuanshou, then pointed to the porcelain vase and said, "That's it, please take a look at Wang Yuantou." ”

"What kind of medicine is this, is it ......" Wang Yuanshou said suspiciously, and then looked at Sheng Zhiyao, who seemed to be a little hesitant.

Sheng Zhiyao saw his doubts: "It's the poison just now, but the baptism of these herbs taken out by the head of the royal courtyard has changed the toxicity, so please be careful not to get contaminated with it." ”

"You're saying that you just used the silk handkerchief to contaminate the poison on my herbs, and then refine the medicinal properties and incorporate the poison into it, so that the toxicity changes." Wang Yuanshou looked at the porcelain vase in front of him and said.

"Yes."

"This is impossible, how is this possible, I have never heard of this method for so many years of medical practice, you must be deceiving the old man." Wang Yuanshou was a little incredulous, he couldn't believe that this was true at all, Sheng Zhiyao knew all the herbs he brought, which meant that she also had them.

"If you don't believe it, you can find out for yourself." After Sheng Zhiyao finished speaking, he turned around and walked away.

Wang Yuanshou stood up and looked at Sheng Zhiyao's back, with a hint of hesitation, and finally walked to the table and opened the herb and smelled it.

After smelling it, his eyes widened suddenly, and he looked stunned, and with some trembling hands, he poured out the pills in the porcelain bottle, took out a little bit, put it in his mouth, and chewed it.

His expression was very complicated, surprised, excited, fearful, disbelieving and other expressions were mixed together, he didn't know what to say, he was just stunned, he didn't expect that these herbs were really developed by Sheng Zhiyao, and they were also integrated into her own medicine.

"How about the head of the royal courtyard, can you guess the medicinal herbs I use?" Sheng Zhiyao looked at Wang Yuanshou and asked with a smile.

"This ......" the head of the royal court was a little speechless, he didn't know what to say.

Sheng Zhiyao was not in a hurry, she slowly walked to the stool next to her and sat down to drink tea, she looked at Wang Yuanshou while sipping tea.

"Did you develop it yourself?" The head of the royal courtyard suddenly asked.

"Yes! Didn't everyone see it just now, why is there a problem? ”

"No problem, of course there is no problem, the old man can only guess the two herbs in it, but he doesn't know the others." Wang Yuanshou glanced at Sheng Zhiyao with a deep disappointment in his eyes, this time he really lost, because he had never heard of someone who could integrate several new and different herbs into the pills that had been made in such a short period of time, and the two that he knew were still the ones that Sheng Zhiyao had just taken.

"Does that mean I won?" Sheng Zhiyao asked with a smile.

"Yes, the old man is convinced!" The head of the royal courtyard looked at Sheng Zhiyao with a touch of respect in his eyes.

"Since you have been defeated, then I want to ask the head of the royal court to know that friend of yours, I have a lot to ask her!" As soon as Sheng Zhiyao spoke, he focused his attention on the friend of the head of the royal courtyard.

"This ......" Wang Yuan was a little embarrassed for a moment, and glanced at Prime Minister Qi who was standing in the distance.

"Why, can't the friends of the head of the royal courtyard see the light?" Sheng Zhiyao raised his eyebrows and asked.

"You don't have to play tricks on the old man, the old man won't tell you." The head of the royal courtyard said angrily.

"Hey! This is not up to you, and the people who can help you buy these herbs will definitely be able to buy Tianluo grass as well. ”

"What Tianluo grass?" The head of the royal court asked suspiciously.

"Hehe, Tianluo grass lives in extremely cold places, it is extremely rare because of its short growth time, each plant is very precious, and there happens to be Tianluo grass in the poison of the queen's mother." Sheng Zhiyao said with a smile.

"Strong words, my friend can buy it, can't the county lord?" The head of the royal courtyard said with some unconvinced.

"What the head of the royal courtyard said is not right, even if I have Tianluo grass, it is definitely not as complete as as the head of the royal courtyard, this head of the royal courtyard you can check my entry and exit records, the first time I came to the Purple Phoenix Hall and the day the queen was poisoned, there was at least five days between entering the palace, today is the third day, every time I enter the palace door empty-handed, why can you frame me for poisoning? Besides, what good can the poisoning of the queen mother do me? Sheng Zhiyao said with a serious face.

"Hmph, maybe you want to use the reputation of saving the queen's mother, and then blame someone else." The head of the royal courtyard said with some disdain.

"Wang Yuantou, this is your mistake, I am only five years old, how can I have such a dirty thought of you, you really exalt me!" Sheng Zhiyao sneered and said with some displeasure.

"You!" The head of the royal courtyard glared at Sheng Zhiyao angrily, this girl actually scolded herself for being dirty? It just doesn't make sense.

"Don't be angry, this age is the age when the blood is vigorous, full of energy, and the body is healthy, if you are angry, it is easy to have a stroke or even evil, then it is not worth it, it is better to take care!"

Wang Yuanshou suddenly turned blue after hearing Sheng Zhiyao's words, he really didn't expect Sheng Zhiyao to be so young, but he was so sharp and bitter when he spoke, he was not her opponent.

"Hmph, you will be quick to speak, the old man has seen the county lord's sharp teeth today."

"The head of the royal court has a good reputation, and I can't afford the praise of the head of the royal court." Sheng Zhiyao said modestly.
