Seeing that Han Yunxi was so focused on the ingredients in the basket, Elder Xie's guilty conscience finally gave in. The key to Xie Peng's cheating was in these ingredients. Could it be that Han Yunxi had really discovered something?
However, Elder Xie remained calm. He confidently replied, "Of course it was chosen by the Council of Elders."
"Who did the Council of Elders choose? How did they do it? "Han Yunxi pressed on.
At this moment, Fourth Elder and Seventh Elder stepped forward. Both of them were from the Wang Clan.
"These ingredients were chosen from the list provided by Elder Xie. There are a total of fifty-three ingredients. The six of us selected them together," Fourth Elder answered honestly.
There were seven seats in the Council of Elders. Xie Deyi was the head, while the remaining six were from the Wang, Xie, and Mu Clans. Thus, the Xie Clan held the most power in the Council of Elders.
"Where is the list of ingredients? Do you dare to take it out for us to see? "Han Yunxi asked again.
At some point, Ouyang Ningnuo had returned to his seat in the VIP section. He chuckled, "Esteemed wangfei, you can't be suspecting that Elder Xie did something to the list, right? Is that even possible? "
At this moment, there was quite a bit of discussion going on below the stage. These ingredients had been carefully selected by many different people. In order to tamper with the ingredients, one would have to bribe everyone involved. That was simply impossible.
But why was Qin Wangfei so confident?
What was the truth behind this matter? It was even more exciting than the results of the competition!
Han Yunxi treated Ouyang Ningnuo as air and ignored him. She asked Elder Xie again, "Do you dare to take out the list for us to see?"
A trace of ruthlessness flashed through Elder Xie's eyes. He immediately took out the list. He refused to believe that this would happen!
Han Yunxi glanced at the list and saw that there were a total of sixty ingredients on it. Aside from the fifty-three ingredients selected by the six elders, there were still seven ingredients left.
"Which elder can provide me with the remaining seven herbs? This wangfei will definitely reward you handsomely. "Han Yunxi loudly declared.
"Although these ingredients weren't selected, we still have them in reserve in case of an emergency. Men, bring everything over. "The Seventh Elder opened his mouth.
After Han Yunxi received the seven herbs, she placed them one by one on the medicine dispensing table just like before. At this point, no one present knew what she wanted to do. However, the Xie Family Head was already panicking and kept shooting glances at Guild Leader Xie. Guild Leader Xie kept his cool and did not say anything.
"Who is willing to come up and pick ten random herbs for this princess?" Han Yunxi asked again.
"Me!" Madam Lianxin walked over with large strides.
Although she was hostile to the Mu family, Han Yunxi didn't reject Madam Lianxin at this moment. She generously gestured for her to enter.
Madam Lianxin quickly picked out ten medicinal herbs in front of everyone.
"Which pharmacist is willing to help this princess make the medicine?" Han Yunxi asked again.
"Old Man!"
Patriarch Wang was the first to raise his hand. However, Han Yunxi smiled and said, "Patriarch Wang, you should avoid suspicion."
Knowing that Qin Wangfei said this on purpose, Wang Family Head didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He could only give up.
As soon as the Wang Family Head stepped down, a large number of people below the stage actually raised their hands, eager to give it a try.
"Qin Wangfei, I'll do it! I'm from the Li family in the southern part of the city. I have no relationship with the Wang and Xie families. "
"I'll do it! I was just defeated by Fourth Young Master Wang! "
"Me, me, me! Esteemed Wangfei, I … "
Even a child wanted to go up on stage. Han Yunxi was amused. She looked around before her gaze landed on Patriarch Xie. "Patriarch Xie, you should do it."
"You … what medicine do you want to make?" Patriarch Xie was very nervous.
"I'll just make medicine according to Xie Peng's prescription. What, Patriarch Xie doesn't know how to make it?" Han Yunxi asked with a smile.
Patriarch Xie's face paled even more. He suppressed the panic in his heart and pointed at the ten herbs Madam Lianxin picked out. He angrily asked, "These herbs are completely different from the prescription. How do you make them?"
"Whatever." Han Yunxi indifferently said.
Whatever?
What was this woman doing?
Everyone present was confused and impatient. Someone couldn't help but shout, "Qin Wangfei, what are you trying to say? Don't play with everyone! You're wasting everyone's time. "
"If Patriarch Xie doesn't understand, then this wangfei will do it herself."
Han Yunxi said as she began to make the medicine. There were two important factors when making medicine. One was the type of herbs and the other was the ratio of the herbs.
Han Yunxi actually took Madam Lianxin's ten herbs and casually mixed them with the ratio on Xie Peng's prescription.
Everyone present didn't dare to do anything because they couldn't understand how she could prove that Xie Peng had cheated.
Han Yunxi didn't have Xie Peng's speed. Her movements were very slow and it was precisely because of this slow movement that everyone present could clearly see that she didn't do anything during the process.
In the time it took for half an incense stick to burn, she finally managed to concoct a pill. However, something strange happened. This pill, regardless of its color, size, smell, or weight, was exactly the same as the one that Xie Peng had concocted. It was as if it was made from the same mold!
This time, the entire audience was shocked!
Han Yunxi once again found someone to casually pick ten herbs from the sixty herbs and mixed them according to Xie Peng's prescription. In the end, the pill she made was also exactly the same!
This time, there was no need for Han Yunxi to explain any further. The truth was already out.
"Sixty Rooms! This is Sixty Rooms! " Fourth Elder was the first to slam the table and stand up as he angrily rebuked, "Xie Deyi, what else do you have to say! As the leader of the Elders Council, you actually embezzled what was entrusted to you! "
The so-called "Sixty Rooms" was a miraculous prescription that had been lost for a long time in the history of medicine. It included sixty medicinal herbs, and ten of them could be randomly chosen. No matter which ten, as long as they were concocted according to a certain ratio, the final medicine concocted would be exactly the same.
Anyone who studied medicine knew of the existence of "Sixty Rooms". However, the prescription had been lost for a long time and no one knew which of the sixty herbs it was.
Now that Han Yunxi had demonstrated it once, the truth was finally out.
The list that Elder Xie had written was the prescription for "Sixty Rooms". Therefore, no matter how the list was filtered or how many hands it passed through, as long as there were no less than ten herbs in front of Xie Peng, Xie Peng would be able to make the Sixty Rooms pill.
It had to be said that this year's Grand Medicine Testing Convention was full of surprises. The audience was shocked again and again. However, this time was undoubtedly the most shocking.
The Xie Family actually had the prescription for "Sixty Rooms" and actually used it to cheat. The Xie Family, who had always relied on the Mu Family, had hidden it well!
"The evidence is irrefutable. Elder Xie, what else do you have to say?" Patriarch Wang asked angrily.
Now, it was no longer important who won or lost. Since Elder Xie had committed such a despicable act, Xie Peng had to be removed from the Grand Medicine Testing Convention and Elder Xie should be removed from his position as Elder.
Patriarch Wang originally thought that there would be a change in the plan and that he would have to spend a lot of effort to deal with the Xie Family. Who knew that Qin Wangfei would have the ability to dig up the matter of "Sixty Rooms"? In this way, the Wang Family would become the ultimate fisherman and reap the greatest benefits!
The audience below the stage sighed and the guests in the VIP seats looked at each other in dismay. It was hard to imagine that such a scandal would happen in Medicine City.
The scene of the Mu Family's defeat was repeated. No one in the Xie Family dared to make a sound or even raise their heads.
However, this old man, Elder Xie, still held his head high and his chest out confidently. Coldly, he looked at Fourth Elder and Patriarch Wang and snorted, "This is irrefutable evidence? The two of you, which eye of yours saw this old man deliberately choosing these sixty herbs? "
This …
For a moment, no one understood what Xie Deyi meant by this.
However, Han Yunxi immediately understood. She sneered and asked in return, "What? Does Elder Xie mean that you accidentally chose these sixty herbs and didn't know that these sixty herbs were the prescription for" Sixty Rooms "?"
"Exactly!" Xie Deyi replied without hesitation. His voice was sonorous and forceful. "This is my Xie Family's luck, not cheating!"
As soon as these words came out, the Wang Family and their supporters all boiled over.
"Xie Deyi, don't you want your old face anymore?"
"Old people are thick-skinned. I've seen it for myself today. Truly admirable! "
"Disband the Council of Elders, or else Medicine City will be in danger!"
The protests grew louder and louder. It wasn't clear who was the first to throw a rock on the stage, but the crowd soon followed suit. The Xie Family immediately resisted, and even the Xie Family's supporters joined in.
The people on the stage hadn't finished competing yet, but the people below the stage were already fighting. The scene was chaotic and on the verge of spiraling out of control.
Although the deacons and directors of the Council of Elders tried their best to control the situation, it was to no avail. On the stage, the Wang and Xie Families were also arguing.
Everything was a mess!
Han Yunxi didn't expect Xie Deyi to refute so shamelessly. She was escorted to the side by Long Fei Ye and was a bit stunned by the chaotic scene.
She couldn't help but think back to the news she had seen before her transmigration. A certain country's dignitaries fought in a meeting for power. Wasn't that the same thing happening in front of her right now?
"Your Highness, what should we do?" Han Yunxi whispered.
Long Fei Ye also didn't expect things to turn out like this, but he wasn't worried. He joked, "You made a mess, so clean it up yourself."
Seeing that Long Fei Ye was in such a good mood that he was joking, Han Yunxi knew that she didn't need to worry.
Sure enough, the noisy scene soon quieted down. This was because the ethereal sound of a flute came from the depths of the Medicine Forest.
Sun Zhong, the old man of the King Of Medicine, had arrived!
He was an expert who lived in seclusion in the Medicine Forest. He was the true owner of the forest, and no one could surpass his alchemy skills. All of the clans in Medicine City revered him and didn't dare to disobey him. They all hoped to inherit his legacy one day.
He had the ability to rule over Medicine City, but he never interfered with worldly affairs. He had lived in seclusion in the Medicine Forest for many years and hadn't shown his face. Even when the poison pond disappeared into thin air last time, he only sent someone to ask the Council of Elders and didn't show himself.
Who would have thought that he would come in person today?
The sound of the flute came closer and closer. Everyone looked in the direction of the sound and saw a white-haired old man in a wheelchair. Beside him were four flute-playing boys.
Everyone made way for him. On the stage, the Wang and Xie Families were silent. However, the old man of the King Of Medicine didn't pay any attention to them. Instead, he examined Han Yunxi and asked, "Qin Wangfei, how did you recognize Sixty Rooms?"
