"Yes, if you ask me about music, chess, calligraphy and painting, I am not inferior at all. Even though I am old, plum blossoms and the like are not really my forte."
"Oh, so Princess An means that she is willing to admit that she doesn't know this plum blossom, right? What about Princess Lina? Princess Lina claims to be the most talented woman in the capital, the most beautiful and the most intelligent. It seems that only Princess Mingyan can compare with her. Does that mean that even Princess Lina doesn't know her?"
That shouldn't be the case. Flowers, plants, trees, and even elegant things have something in common with music, chess, calligraphy, and painting. Could it be that Princess Lina doesn't know how to do that?"
"Miss Yun, are you deliberately provoking me? I admit I can't do it, so what? Miss Yun is so unreasonable. Could it be that Miss Yun is the one who doesn't know the plum blossoms and is deliberately changing the subject to embarrass us mother and daughter, and to embarrass us in public?"
Seeing that Princess Lina had said such harsh words that she didn't even pretend, the smile on Chaoge's face became even more rampant!
"Why didn't you just say you didn't know each other? Why did you keep pushing it back and forth? Is it that hard to admit that you are incompetent? You are not like me. Although I am not very good at music, chess, calligraphy and painting, I dare to admit it. So I advise you two not to be so hypocritical in the future."
"you......"
Seeing that the fire that had finally been put out was ignited again by Chaoge, Princess An was so angry that she was about to disregard everything and turn against Chaoge. Princess Lina hurriedly pressed her hand back and stood in front of Princess An.
When she looked at Chaoge again, Princess Lina's smile was dignified but with a hint of disapproval in her eyes.
"We are different. We are good at music, chess, calligraphy and painting, but we don't know these plants. So, Miss Yun, do you know them?"
It's just a plum tree, but such a fuss has been made about it for so long. Princess Lina suddenly realized that maybe Chaoge really didn't know her and was deliberately dragging her and her mother into this to embarrass her together?
Haha, this woman is really scheming!
In fact, as the most talented woman in the capital, she naturally had to learn about many rare flowers and plants, but she really didn't know anything about this plum blossom.
Besides, the plum blossoms hadn't even bloomed yet, so how could she identify it just by looking at its bare trunk?
Suddenly they realized that they had fallen into Chaoge's trap from the very beginning. Princess Lina now had to seriously examine Chaoge's treachery and cunning.
Now that she has lost face, Yun Chaoge can't think of escaping so easily. Except now, she will definitely get it all back later.
Looking at Princess Lina's sarcastic face, Chaoge smiled coldly.
"I'm sorry, I'm really untalented. I just happen to know this plum blossom."
Pretend! Keep pretending!
Seeing that Chaoge was still unhurried, Princess Lina still didn't believe it. The sneer in her heart became stronger, but the expression on her face remained the same.
She just continued to stare at Chaoge with her beautiful eyes. She would never give Chaoge a chance to quibble again and divert everyone's attention!
As she stared at Chaoge like this, she didn't believe that this woman wouldn't get nervous or reveal her true colors.
"This plum is called Biejiao Wanshui, right, Madam Prime Minister?"
Princess Lina!
Princess An!
A crowd of onlookers!
"What do you mean by Biejiao Wanshui? Haha, don't ask the Prime Minister's wife to cover for you. This kind of plum blossom is something that I have never heard of. Don't think that you can act so arrogant just because you gave it a random name and winked at the Prime Minister's wife!"
As soon as Chaoge finished speaking, his eyes fell on the Prime Minister's wife's face, but Princess An was not happy about it. She immediately raised her voice and sneered!
She had seen countless women, and when she heard this name for the first time, her first feeling was that Chaoge was embarrassed and wanted to drag the Prime Minister's wife to join her in fooling everyone, so she just picked a name that no one had ever heard of, hoping to get away with it.
Thinking of this possibility, Princess An couldn't help but admire Chaoge's cunning!
If she had done the same just now, wouldn't he and his daughter have avoided being embarrassed?
When the Prime Minister's wife heard this, her expression naturally turned grim!
"This plum is indeed called 'Biejiao Wanshui'. I am a lady of the first rank. Princess An is really a joke. How could she make up a random name for a precious flower? I would never do such a thing!"
Everyone could clearly hear that the Prime Minister's wife was already extremely unhappy and dissatisfied with Princess An.
But Princess An and Princess Lina didn't care about that? Even at this time, in their eyes, the Prime Minister's wife and Chaoge were still birds of a feather.
"Biejiao Wanshui belongs to the plum blossom variety, the real plum is a straight-legged plum, the palace pink type, and the flowering period is generally from late February to early March. This kind of plum blossom has a strong double petal nature, and a small flower can even have up to 45 petals, and the flower fragrance is elegant and fragrant.
The flower buds are oblate with a flat top and may or may not have a central hole. The base of the front side of the flower is very light purple, and the deep halo is light violet. The back side is also light violet, but the top petals are dark violet. The colors are layered and bright.
The flowers are in full bloom, and the flower shape is shallow bowl-shaped. The edges of the petals are slightly curled inward, tightly stacked, with broken petals dancing inside. There are smaller petals between the sepals and petals, which gradually become larger towards the inner layers, with burnt edges on the petal ends, just like the children of a peony.
When it is in full bloom, its fragrance can be smelled within a hundred steps. People who are familiar with "Biejiao Wanshui" can find the flower even if they don't know where it is, as long as they smell the fragrance.
Chaoge's smiling voice sounded faintly, and he looked at the mother and daughter with a smile without blinking, until he finished speaking, then his eyebrows slightly raised.
When she said this, the air around her seemed to quiet down, and everyone couldn't help but be attracted by her voice. When she finished speaking, those ladies who thought that Chaoge and the Prime Minister's wife were in collusion undoubtedly opened their mouths slightly, and were all in disbelief that Chaoge knew so much about Mei!
"I didn't know I had described it in such detail. Princess and Princess, are you still dissatisfied? If you really want to refute, then I can't do anything about it. It's better to wait for another month until this 'Biejiao Wanshui' blooms, and then you will know the answer."
"Pah pah pah"!
Suddenly, there was a burst of applause in the quiet surroundings. Chaoge was attracted by the applause from the faces of Princess An and Princess Lina, whose faces were as dark as the bottom of a pot. Looking back, he found that the well-behaved and quiet Shi beside the Prime Minister's wife was looking at him with admiration!
Shi's applause once again made Princess An and Princess Lina look cold on their faces. The embarrassment was beyond words, and they were filled with anger at this moment!
"Oh, sorry, I was so happy that I forgot that you were all here. I was just too surprised that Miss Yun was such a talented person. She could understand this rare and precious species of 'Biejiao Wanshui' so clearly just by looking at the trunk of a tree that has not bloomed. She could even describe every detail so clearly. I really admire her!"
