Chapter 181 Three women in one play!

Yao Xue's failure in alchemy attracted the attention of Zhu Jinyao and others. Li Yueze was slightly surprised. Yao Xue had failed the test twice before, but he didn't expect that this third time he failed faster than before.

"Yao Xue, you..." Zhu Jinyao looked complicated and didn't know how to speak.

Yao Xue looked at the two of them with an unkind look on her face, "Didn't you say that Gu Niansheng doesn't know how to make alchemy? Are you trying to trick me?"

"We definitely haven't." Zhu Jinyao waved her hands quickly, "We have never heard that she has learned alchemy before. If you don't believe it, ask Mr. Fu. He has never heard of it either."

Three women in one drama, Fu Congwen was not interested in the dispute between them at all.

"Since Miss Gu is here to take the assessment, she will naturally be able to make elixirs."

Although he was surprised, if Miss Gu didn't know how to make alchemy, why would she take the exam?
Yao Xue walked directly to sit between Zhu Qiaoying and Li Yueze and separated the two. Zhu Qiaoying looked stiff and soon returned to her usual smile.

"Yao Xue, we really don't know about this matter." Zhu Qiaoying explained.

"I don't think so." Yao Xue mocked, "How come I haven't heard that you have other alchemist friends besides me? I know a lot of alchemists in the Imperial City, why don't you tell me, I don't think I can know."

Zhu Qiaoying's expression paused slightly, Yao Xue had embarrassed her in person.

Seeing this, Zhu Jinyao walked over quickly and whispered: "Yao Xue, the most important thing for us now is not to let Gu Niansheng pass the assessment, otherwise the 30 taels will not be guaranteed!"

When Yao Xue thought of 30 taels, her heart tightened. This was indeed the top priority now.

"Then what should we do now?"

Yao Xue was anxious. She had borrowed the 30 taels. She thought she would win, but she didn't expect to be tricked by these two sisters. If Gu Niansheng passed the test, she would really be doomed!
"Isn't Gu Niansheng's relationship with Mr. Fu good?" Zhu Qiaoying asked.

Their eyes lit up, and then Fu Congwen saw Zhu Jinyao walking up to him calmly and asked with a smile: "Master Fu, I heard that the Prime Minister took you to visit Duke Zhen Guo a few days ago?"

Fu Congwen frowned slightly and just looked at her.

"I wonder if there is a possibility of marriage?" Zhu Jinyao walked to Fu Congwen and sat down, her expression showing a bit of intimacy, "I am good friends with Nian Sheng's sister, and I am very familiar with her."

However, Fu Congwen obviously did not accept this trick. On the day he visited the Zhenguo Palace, Gu Nianen also went back. From the atmosphere at that time, it can be seen that the adopted daughter now only had no explicit relationship with the Zhenguo Palace. Disconnected.

Naturally, this Zhu Jinyao's relationship with Gu Niansheng cannot be good.

"Girl, please be careful what you say. Random speculation will only ruin the girl's reputation."

When Fu Congwen stopped smiling, his handsome face showed a bit of sharpness, and his voice also sounded a warning, which made Zhu Jinyao unable to maintain the smile on his face.

When I saw Fu Congwen talking to Li Yueze and Gu Niansheng earlier, he was clearly a gentle young man, but why was he so cold when facing her now.

Zhu Jinyao planned to get close to Fu Congwen, which made Gu Niansheng unable to help but be distracted. After all, Yao Xue was like this before, and she never thought that Gu Niansheng seemed to be immersed in her own world, ignoring everything around her.

During this process, two more alchemy apprentices failed to make alchemy and regretfully withdrew from the assessment.

Suddenly, a faint medicinal fragrance spread. Upon noticing this fragrance, Master Xuanming and others all looked at Gu Niansheng's alchemy furnace. This alchemy fragrance came from this alchemy furnace.

Cheng Hong looked at the time and said, "This girl is very fast at refining elixirs. She doesn't have to make any concessions compared to veterans." They all knew the refining time of Huiyuan Dan. Generally, it would take longer for newcomers to refining it. The speed of veterans who refine frequently tends to be stable. Judging from the current time, Gu Niansheng's speed is undoubtedly very fast.

You can tell by looking at the remaining four alchemy apprentices who are still refining alchemy.

Yang Ming nodded, "I have never heard that a girl from Zhenguo's family can also make alchemy before. This is too low-key."

"I think this girl has been practicing by herself. She didn't think of coming here to take the assessment until she was finished." Xuan Ming recalled what Gu Niansheng said at the stairs. Although this girl is low-key, she is not someone who can be bullied.

It seems that the guild is recruiting another waiter.

Cheng Hong shook his head, "Mr. Yao is going to bleed heavily this time."

Xuan Ming and Yang Ming also thought of the 30 tael bet. This girl would make a lot of money if she came here!

"It's done." Li Yueze touched Fu Congwen with his arm, raised his eyebrows and said, "This Miss Gu is skilled in alchemy skills. She passed the first test and is the fastest. At such a young age, her talent is extremely good."

Fu Congwen smiled lightly, "A tiger father has no dog daughter."

"It seems that the sons and daughters of Duke Zhen Guo are all excellent." Li Yueze sighed. Gu Hongzhen was the number one scholar in high school at a young age, and his cultivation is also very strong. Among the younger generation, he can be named the Four Elites of the Imperial City together with the prince, which shows that he Excellent points.

However, Yao Xue's face was extremely ugly. The 30 taels of silver notes in her arms became a big stone in her heart. She even wanted to run away from him for a moment and turned her back and refused to admit it, but she had already done it in front of Brother Li. Talked about a bet.

If he ran away like this, how would he face Brother Li in the future?

As the fragrance of the elixir became stronger and stronger, the elixir in the elixir furnace had taken shape. Gu Niansheng opened the lid of the furnace and put the elixir inside into the white porcelain bottle on the side.

Just when the elixir was being refined, two more people failed. It was not easy to be promoted from an alchemy apprentice to an alchemist. Many people failed in every assessment. The three masters had obviously become accustomed to it.

Cheng Hong smiled lightly and took the elixir from Gu Niansheng. When he opened it, he saw the full elixirs, all of which were of excellent quality.

"I didn't expect that there is such a talented alchemist as my little friend in the Imperial City. I have never heard of him before."

"Senior is wrong."

"As far as I know, there is no alchemist in Zhenguo Palace. I wonder where you learned from it?"

There was doubt in Xuan Ming's eyes. Alchemy could not be self-taught and must be guided by a famous teacher. However, they all knew the alchemists in the Imperial City and had never heard of anyone accepting Miss Gu as their disciple.

Gu Niansheng guessed what the three masters were thinking by looking at their expressions. She had never thought about this problem before, but now that she had received guidance from her master, she could perfectly explain the matter.

"The master of this junior is Master Ling Xiao." Gu Niansheng said.

As soon as these words came out, Xuan Ming and the other three were stunned, their eyes filled with disbelief.

"Master Lingxiao?"

As alchemists among them, who has never heard of Master Ling Xiao's name?
