Princess Gu Shu was completely embarrassed by what she said, but she just couldn't understand. The Hundred Perfumes from Gu Shu were sent to Da Shun as tribute items, and it was said that all the concubines in Da Shun's harem were fighting for them. Why was the Thousand Perfumes being excluded now? Could it be...
"You did it on purpose, didn't you?" She figured it out, and the little girl's nature was revealed, and she flipped out on the spot: "Because Gu Shu didn't give you the Thousand Perfumes, you deliberately said that it was not good in this way or that way, and made it so embarrassing. This really proves what you Dashun people often say, that if you can't get it, you must destroy it! Right?"
The civil and military officials were stunned. They didn't expect that the ancient Shu princess would speak so inappropriately. Was she blaming the emperor? Then the right prime minister Feng Qing shouted, "How dare you!"
Unexpectedly, Tianwu waved his hand, "Hey! It's okay. I can't argue with a little girl. Besides, the people of the foreign countries have never seen good things. If we say their things are not good, they will naturally not believe it. But..." He looked at the Princess of Gu Shu again, "Girl, I am telling the truth. If you don't believe me, ask my ninth son, is the perfume her mother uses much better than this?"
Xuan Tianming immediately agreed, "That's simply a world of difference. The perfume used by mother was personally mixed by Ah Heng. It has a moderate fragrance, lasts long, and the color is pure and transparent. It won't stain clothes."
Tianwu added, "And there's more! They don't need to be diluted with water, and they're not in an ordinary glass bottle. Do you need to dip your perfume in something? The perfume that Lao Jiu's mother uses is sprayed directly. It's a transparent bottle made of something unknown. There's a small mechanism on it. You can spray perfume with a press of a button. It's very convenient."
Princess Gu Shu was completely confused by what they said. No matter how they described it, she had no idea what it was. The things from the future could not form any substance in her mind at all, but she blurted out a thought in an instant: "It's impossible!"
Tianwu was a little angry. "I am the king of a country. How can I lie to you? You think it is your small country. The king says something, but it doesn't count the moment he turns his head. So, Xiaoyuanzi, go to the back and borrow the bottle of perfume from Concubine Yun. Take it out and open the eyes of the little princess of Gushu."
Zhang Yuan was a little embarrassed and whispered, "Her Majesty has long said that this thing will never be lent out to anyone. Your Majesty, have you forgotten that last time you were impatient and took it to look at it for a while, and the Her Majesty found out and kicked you. How come you forgot the pain now that the wound has healed?"
Emperor Tianwu was a little embarrassed, but after thinking about it, yes, Concubine Yun’s things were not available for loan. Not to mention Zhang Yuan, even if he went there in person, he wouldn’t be able to borrow them! He was at a loss for a moment.
Princess Gu Shu watched the two men above whispering to each other, but she didn't see the eunuch going to get the so-called perfume that was better than Gu Shu. She couldn't help but sneer, "So he was just bragging. Da Shun can't possibly have such a good thing! Your Majesty! If you really want this Thousand Perfumes, just say so. Why bother with so much trouble? Although Gu Shu still wants to use this to continue blending, it is after all a vassal state of Da Shun. The vassal state has to respond to the request of the superior state. If you insist, I will leave this Thousand Perfumes today."
"What do I need that broken thing for?" Tianwu was also unhappy, but the thing was in Concubine Yun's hands, and he didn't know what to do for a moment.
Princess Gu Shu refused to give in. "Since ours is just junk, Your Majesty, please take out the real good stuff and let me open my eyes! Otherwise, the people of Dashun will say that we Gu Shu people are ignorant."
"I..." Tianwu hesitated.
But at this moment, Feng Yuheng's voice suddenly came from the lower side, "Isn't it easy to see the real perfume? This princess carries it with her, why bother to go to the harem to get it." As she spoke, she stood up, walked forward a few steps, and then reached into her sleeve, and a bottle of Dior perfume was directly taken out from the space. After taking out the thing, she placed it in her palm and smiled at the ancient Shu princess, "Princess, regardless of the quality of the perfume, just look at this perfume container, do you recognize it?"
Princess Gu Shu was stunned. Glass was something that absolutely did not exist in the world today. It was an invention of later generations. The perfume that Feng Yuheng took out was in a glass bottle, which immediately put the Princess Gu Shu down.
She had never seen anything this transparent. After thinking about it, she finally said, "Could it be white crystal?" Indeed, white crystal can achieve an effect similar to that of glass, but she immediately shook her head after she said it, denying her own statement, "No, no, white crystal can't be this transparent. What on earth is this?"
Feng Yuheng smiled at her and took two steps forward. Princess Gu Shu asked again unwillingly, "What is this bottle made of?"
But Feng Yuheng shook his head, "Dashun secrets."
puff!
Tianwu started laughing first, followed by Xuan Tianming, and then the whole audience started laughing.
Someone immediately started to make a noise: "You, Gu Shu, have kept the secret recipe of Baixiangshui secret for so many years, and now you want to ask about our bottles?"
Princess Gu Shu's eyes lit up, and she quickly followed up with another sentence: "If we Gu Shu are willing to tell you how to make Baixiangshui, then Princess Ji An can use the method of making this bottle in exchange?"
When these words were spoken, all the officials present were stunned. It was just a bottle, how could it cause such a reaction from the Princess of Ancient Shu?
But at the same time, some people thought more deeply. Someone whispered below: "The ancient Shu princess is young and her temper is not very good, but she has a unique vision. After learning the production method, it can not only be used to make bottles. Think about it, it can be applied in many places."
This remark awakened the dreamer, and the officials below began to imagine countless uses for the glass. Of course, they also realized how valuable this thing was, and someone immediately shouted: "It cannot be exchanged, absolutely not exchanged."
Feng Yuheng listened and couldn't help but secretly shook her head. She is not omnipotent, and her space is even less omnipotent. She doesn't know how to make glass, so you can't ask her to remove all the windows in the pharmacy and replace the glass for the Dashun people, right? That's simply nonsense. She has brought a lot of things to this era, and it's better to avoid the appearance of glass, a species that transcends the times, as much as possible.
She looked at the ancient Shu princess again, and saw the expectation in her eyes, but she shook her head in response to her expectation, "You have already made a thousand perfumes, why do we need your hundred perfumes?"
Princess Gu Shu was stunned, and subconsciously asked, "Do you want Qianxiangshui?" After asking, she gritted her teeth secretly, "Okay, Qianxiangshui is Qianxiangshui. I, Gu Shu, will use the recipe of Qianxiangshui to exchange for the recipe of your bottle. Although it is a bit disadvantageous, since Princess Ji'an has asked, I will give you this face."
Feng Yuheng almost laughed out loud, "When did I ask? Who wants your Thousand Perfumes?" After saying that, without waiting for the ancient Shu princess to answer, she took off the cap of the perfume in her hand, pressed the nozzle with her hand, sprayed it into the air, and then waved her sleeves. The fragrance instantly filled her nose, but it was not as strong as the Thousand Perfumes. It still smelled so good that it was suffocating.
The ancient Shu princess was stunned again. The first puff was as fragrant as flowers in full bloom. The second puff was like beauty entering a clear spring. The third puff was yet more lingering and endless.
Just one spray allowed her to smell three different sensations, which was something that the Hundred Perfumes and Thousand Perfumes of Ancient Shu could not do. How could the little princess not be surprised?
Feng Yuheng smiled and said, "My perfume has three parts: the top note, the middle note, and the aftertaste. Each scent contains the smeller's own feelings. Your mood, your emotions, your habits, and your preferences determine the smell you smell, and even more so your feelings about the smell in retrospect. Princess Gu Shu, close your eyes, and you can still feel the texture of the fragrance, as if you can touch it. It is not an illusion, but reality."
Feng Yuheng's voice was bewitching, forcing the ancient Shu princess to do as she was told. At the same time, she also sprayed perfume all around. The remaining scent of the original thousand perfumes in the hall was immediately replaced by the scent of Dior, leaving no room for resistance.
The civil and military officials also imitated the ancient Shu princess, closing their eyes and savoring the aroma, just like tasting a pot of fine wine, admiring a beauty, reading a poem, or even painting a picture. For a moment, everyone was intoxicated by the aroma and couldn't help themselves.
Finally, Princess Gu Shu came back to her senses and stared at Feng Yuheng and asked, "Did you mix drugs into this thing?"
Feng Yuheng laughed, "You judge others by your own standards. Do you think that since your Qianxiang Water is mixed with a lot of musk, my perfume should be mixed with drugs? Princess Gu Shu, you played the trick of playing hard to get very well. You kept saying that you would not leave Qianxiang Water in Dashun, but you also used this to whet Dashun's appetite. Dashun will not leave this thing in the palace to save face, but after you leave the palace, the ladies who come to you will probably break the door, right? This princess is thinking, your Qianxiang Water is so strong, with a lot of musk mixed in it. If it is taken by those ladies of marriageable age, wouldn't it make them childless? What do you think?"
Suddenly, a hat was put back on the head of the ancient Shu princess, which made her feel frightened. Because the smell of perfume was too strong, she had bad intentions and deliberately pointed out that there was a drug in the perfume. Who knew that she would be harmed by others. The fact that the thousand perfumes were mixed with musk was so easily exposed by Feng Yuheng. But before she came, the ancient Shu perfume maker and the head of the Imperial Hospital told her that although the musk component was heavy, it was absolutely impossible to be discovered! But now, Feng Yuheng only needed to smell it and actually... "You are talking nonsense!" She concluded that Feng Yuheng was lying.
But Feng Yuheng shook his head and said firmly: "Except for my grandfather Yao Xian, I dare say that I am the best doctor in Dashun. It is impossible for me to smell the wrong medicinal materials. If the princess is not convinced, ask all the doctors in Dashun to come and take a look!"
Princess Gu Shu was stunned, subconsciously took a half step back, and snorted coldly: "I said I won't give the things to Da Shun, so I won't give them to Da Shun. Since it's my own things, why do you care what I put in them? As for what you said about me giving it to other ladies, that's just your own imagination. This princess never said that."
Feng Yuheng smiled and said, "That's great."
The ladies in the palace also understood the conversation between the two and broke out in a cold sweat. They really planned to visit the ancient Shu princess later and ask for some money!
Qian Xiangshui not only failed to shock the Dashun people, but also made Gu Shu feel humiliated. The Seventh Princess felt embarrassed. At this time, Emperor Tianwu smoothed things over for her: "It's okay, it's okay, Gu Shu girl, you don't have to take it to heart. You are a small foreign country, and I know your knowledge. I won't laugh at you!"
These words almost made the Seventh Princess cry...
