Chapter 152 The Alchemist Association and the Alchemy Conference(1/2)
Knight? This is OK, slightly attractive.
Green felt that the conditions were good, so he nodded. "Okay, then I will do my best."
The emperor reminded: "It is not enough to do your best. Remember, you must win the championship, otherwise don't mention your marriage with Lao Shi."
Green didn't say anything to him, and said goodbye after bowing.
After leaving the imperial study room, when the cold wind blew, Green felt that he was sweating in a cold sweat.
It’s not that she was scared by the old man from the emperor. It was just that the two sides fought wits and courage, and they were going back and forth, and Green couldn’t help but feel a little nervous, so he sweated.
At this moment, light and crystal snowflakes actually drifted from the sky, and it was snowing in Shenfeng City.
Green breathed a sigh of relief and exhaled a white mist. If she hadn't been sure that the emperor lacked talents and took Qiao as an alchemist, he wouldn't have let him down so easily today.
Trying Ye Lin's affection? Only a fool would believe this kind of nonsense! It was obvious that she became strong, and the old guy compromised and found a way out for himself.
Ye Lin stood not far away. Seeing Green come out, he hurried forward and grabbed Green's hand, asking with concern: "How? Haven't you been troubled?"
Green looked back at the Yu Study Room and said, "Let's talk about it when you go back."
Green didn't say it, but Ye Lin knew that the process must be a bit tortuous. That old guy is not a good person, and as his son, he knew it in his heart.
The two of them went back together under Feixue.
On the way, Green turned his head and looked at Ye Lin, and suddenly smiled, "Ye Lin, look, we are walking and we are all white together."
When Ye Lin heard this, his heart was teased by her jokes. He held Green's hand tightly and smiled gently, "Idiot, we must be old together. But I don't want to grow old so soon."
Green smiled and asked him, "Do you want to live forever?"
"It's best." Ye Lin looked at Green's eyebrows and narrowed his eyes.
The two of them entered the door of the house with snowflakes on their heads. A Cheng happened to meet them, holding two umbrellas in his hand. "It was snowing suddenly. I was about to deliver an umbrella to Your Highness, and you were back."
Ye Lin smiled: "No obstacle. It's also strange to be romantic when walking in the snow once a while."
"Hmm?" A Cheng was puzzled. He thought that his highness was talking about artistic conception and did not know the meme of "Blackhead".
Green Yelin and the others entered the study. Acheng knew that they were going to talk about something, so after delivering hot tea, he left.
"What did the old guy tell you?" Ye Lin asked.
So Green told Ye Lin the first half of the conversation. He sneered: "If you are disrespectful to your old age, you will become more dirty as you grow older."
Green shrugged and agreed.
Then, she said, "What is the rule of the refining conference in three months? Tell me about it."
Ye Lin was stunned for a moment before saying, "If you don't say it, I'm almost forgotten. Three years are coming again." After more than half a year of rich experience, it's no wonder Ye Lin is about to forget this.
But Ye Lin quickly reacted: "What's that old guy's idea? Does he want you to participate in the competition?"
Green nodded: "Yes. And he said, if I win the championship, he will not only give us marriages, but also give me the title."
Ye Lin frowned and said, "This old guy, the abacus is crackling! You won the championship, give you a title, and show his generosity and win over the hearts of the people. At that time, 80% of you directly declare that you are the Tenth Prince's Concubine, and tie you firmly with the royal family. In just a few words, you will be able to save face for the royal family."
Green raised his eyebrows, is it really that way? He is indeed an old man.
"Forget it!" Ye Lin was depressed. In order to get married to Green, he could only accept it. But it was really cheap that old guy, and he actually used Green to build momentum.
Ye Lin sighed: "The Pharmaceutical Alchemy Conference is a elixir feast every three years. The purpose is to test the strength of the younger generation of alchemists. The conference has been held for hundreds of years."
"In the past, the pharmacy conference was held in rotation between Shenyou and Feng Yi. The two countries each had their own pharmacist associations and were not under the jurisdiction of the royal family. They were also responsible for the pharmacy conference."
"Originally, it was the turn of the God-Blessing Empire to hold it this year, but unfortunately..." Ye Lin didn't make it clear. But Green understood that the God-Blessing Empire was destroyed.
Ye Lin continued, "The God Blessing is gone, so the hosting rights this time were taken away by Feng Yi. How can Feng Yi Alchemist Association be willing to do this? This conference is probably going to be a fight between dragons and tigers."
Alchemist Association? Green was stunned for a moment and asked, "Does I need to be certified by the Alchemist Association?"
Ye Lin shrugged and said, "The Fengyi royal family has always cultivated alchemists loyal to the royal family, so they are qualified to be admitted. If you fight on behalf of the royal family, you naturally don't need to be certified by the Alchemist Association. However, if they know who you are studying, you will be in trouble."
Green asked in confusion, "What does it mean? My Master Yan Jin and the Alchemist Association will have a holiday?"
Ye Lin laughed and quipped, "It's not just a holiday? The Alchemist Association pays great attention to inheritance. Do you still remember the incident of Yan Jin stealing his master."
Green nodded, "Remember."
"Yan Jin steals his master, and he steals the inheritance of a master of alchemy. Unfortunately, the president of Fengyi Alchemist Association is also the apprentice of this master."
Green was stunned when he heard this, "In other words, the current president of Fengyi Alchemist Association is considered my senior brother of Master Yan Jin?"
"It's senior brother! If you are an ordinary alchemist and want to attend the conference through the Alchemist Association, then your Yanyang Cauldron will reveal your identity 100%." Ye Lin said.
Green's heart tightened, "Do they all recognize the Yanyang Cauldron?"
Ye Lin said: "The story of Yan Jin stealing his master in his early years shocked the entire medicine refining world. Almost everyone knows it among the medicine refining masters."
"Yan Jin not only stole the skills, but also made the old master so angry that he used interpersonal relationships to drive Yan Jin away. It is said that when the old master passed away, he still couldn't let go of this matter and ended up in hatred. As the old master's personal disciple, it would be strange if Liao Si could let you go as Yan Jin's disciple! He is not a generous person."
Green thought about it carefully. Yanyang Ding was picked up by Master Yan Jin. Later, Master Yan Jin died because the junior brother of the owner of Yanyang Dingyuan was chased by him?
So the Yanyang Ding will not only reveal her identity as Yan Jin's apprentice, but may also attract the pursuit of the master of Yanyang Dingyuan?
Green thought for a moment and asked Ye Lin: "Do you know the origin of the Yanyang Cauldron?"
Ye Lin knew what Green was worried about, so he smiled and said, "Relax. Although Yan Yang Cauldron was picked up by Yan Jin, he was chased by the former owner's junior brother because of the disaster caused by Yan Jin's trouble. However, because Yan Jin's bone blood was more restricted in the Yan Yang Cauldron, the man returned in vain, and now that lineage is already a little down."
The medicine cauldron is usually passed down according to the technology. Since the two brothers and brothers have obtained the inheritance of the senior brothers, it means that the junior brother is not as good as the senior brothers.
So after the senior brother died unexpectedly, the junior brother accidentally discovered that the Yanyang Cauldron used by the senior brother was in the hands of someone else. He naturally wanted to grab it back.
The alchemist's medicine cauldron is as important as the sword in the hand of a swordsman. If the medicine cauldron is good, the success rate of medicine will also increase accordingly.
Hearing that the lineage was already in decline and I believe it could not pose any threat to her, Green felt relieved.
The Alchemist Conference will be held in the spring of the following year, which is after the New Year. Although it is still a while, Green should also prepare well.
During this period, Green heard Ye Lin talk about the competition system of the medicine conference. From the auditions to the finals, the difficulty gradually increased.
The auditions are two rounds. In previous years, they have identified the treasures of heaven and earth and refined medicinal materials. One is to test the degree of professional knowledge, and the other is to test the basic strength of the contestants through the degree of extraction of medicinal materials.
You should know that it is not easy to perfectly extract the essence of medicinal materials. If you are not careful, you will be sentenced to failure for "wasteing treasures in nature."
After the second auditions are made, 70% of the contestants can be eliminated. The contestants who successfully pass the auditions will be divided into four groups from the draw of lots.
When entering the group stage, it is a test of the real skill of refining medicine. The jury selects a pill for the contestants to refine it. After completion, the group ranking will be selected based on the quality of the pill. The first place in the four groups can enter the finals.
The champion of the drug refining conference was decided among these four people.
However, in the final, it is up to you to decide what pills the player wants to refine. On the basis of successful refining, as long as the difficulty of the pills he refines can surpass the other three.
After hearing what Ye Lin said, Green wiped the sweat from his forehead. Alas! If you want to win the championship, it is the same as passing five levels and killing six generals.
Ye Lin asked her: "Do you have confidence?"
Green glared at Ye Lin and thought to himself: Stinky man! It was him who wanted to marry him, why was she the one who was difficult to test? Is this putting the cart before the horse?
Ye Lin saw dissatisfaction in her eyes. He touched his nose awkwardly and stopped saying anything, so as not to explode in place. He knew that he had caused trouble for Green, but he did not guess that the old guy would do this.
Green snorted, not wanting to pay attention to Ye Lin anymore. Anyway, she did her best to do her best in the refining conference. If she couldn't win, she couldn't blame her.
I can only blame Ye Lin for not being lucky enough to be her husband.
Green is proud, hum!
Just when Ye Lin was embarrassed, A Cheng's report rang out: "Your Highness, Concubine Qing in the palace sent someone to pass on the message, indicating that she would invite Miss Green to the palace in the afternoon."
Ye Lin turned his head and shouted to Acheng: "What's the name?"
A Cheng replied to him: "Report to Your Highness, the eunuch who was passing the message said that Concubine Qing asked Miss Green to appreciate the plum blossoms."
Green was stunned when he heard this. Ye Lin said, "I understand. You told me that Green will enter the palace on time tomorrow." A Cheng should have retreated.
"What are you doing to agree to me! You are not my agent!" Green stamped his feet in anger.
She didn't know Concubine Qing, and she had never even heard of this concubine before. How could she be happy to go if she couldn't beat someone with her eight poles?
Ye Lin didn't know what the agent meant, but he comforted her and said, "Don't worry, Concubine Qing has no malice."
Green gave him a blank look and said in a secret voice: You are like Concubine Qing.
Ye Lin pretended not to see her eyes rolling and explained: "If another empress wanted to see you, I might not agree. Concubine Qing is my mother's close friend. During these days when her mother was away, Concubine Qing took care of me a lot."
Green looked at him and spread his hands directly, as if he was saying what he had to do with me.
Ye Lin sighed and said, "I asked the old guy to marry you. Concubine Qing thought he knew it, so he invited you to the palace. This is out of love for the younger generation, so you just treat it as helping me and going to the palace, right?"
Green is not a difficult person to talk to. She has actually compromised now, but Ye Lin said again: "I heard that there will be an auction in three days, and I will go to buy tickets tomorrow, how about it?"
"Trade!" Green agreed readily.
Anyway, this was what Ye Lin took the initiative to bribe her, but she didn't ask for it.
From Ye Lin's mouth, Green learned about his mother and Concubine Qing.
It turned out that Ye Lin's mother clan was actually a family of military generals. During his heyday, it was probably no less than the current Xiao family.
Ye Lin's mother's mother's surname was Qin. Her father was named Wu as a marquis in her early years and was deeply trusted by the emperor. The second year after the emperor ascended the throne, she was widely accepted by the court officials at the suggestion of her court officials. She was elected to the harem because of her family's great power.
The Qingfei family also made great contributions through martial arts, and the two families made their fortunes for about the same time. Because of the same temperament as the mother of Qingfei and Yelin, they became close friends in their boyfriends. However, compared with the Qin family, the Qingfei family was slightly deficient.
The two were selected into the palace at the same time, and Concubine Qing was just a noble person. Ye Lin's mother was a concubine from the beginning and was named De. The people in the palace called Concubine Qin De.
