Evil Crown Prince’s Stunning Wife - C282

“Mm …” This subordinate can only differentiate one or two of them, but there are some specific ones that I am unable to determine. ”

Hearing that, Ya Er nodded his head, and said somewhat embarrassedly.

Liu Xinyue had also taught him the knowledge on medicinal herbs for a period of time. Originally, he thought that he had studied very fast and memorized everything, so his grasp should have been good, but he never expected that this first test would make things difficult for him.

This was too embarrassing!

“Tell me about it first.” Liu Xinyue did not scold Ya Er, but said so.

“Yes, Mistress. When I was tasting it, I discovered that the color of the black vegetables was black and the taste was sweet, so I compared the ingredients that I could use with it and found that there were three kinds of herbs: Black Sunflower, Wild Chrysanthemum, and Black Wolfberry.”

“However, which of these three is more specific? This subordinate has been incompetent and is unable to differentiate between them.”

Ya Er raised his head to look at Liu Xinyue. Seeing her calm expression and that she did not want him to stop, he continued.

“Later on, your subordinate realized that after this black dish had been stuck in his mouth for a long time, the original sweet taste gradually became cool. Later on, I even felt the taste become a little fresh, and my tongue also became numb.”

“Based on these reactions, this subordinate has speculated that there should be Juexiu in the black vegetables.”

With that, Ya Er looked at Liu Xinyue, his heart becoming a little nervous.

After a long while, seeing the nervous Ya Er who was at a loss as to what to do, Liu Xinyue finally spoke.

She smiled and said, “First of all, the three medicinal herbs you mentioned earlier, black anemone, wild chrysanthemum, and black wolfberry, one of them is indeed correct.”

“But as for which one, I won’t tell you for now. As for the latter, Juechen, that’s right. Not bad.”

Ya Er did not expect his two guesses to be more or less correct. He was still somewhat happy in his heart.

“However, there are a few types of medicinal ingredients that you have yet to identify.”

What Liu Xinyue said next made the originally somewhat happy Ya Er feel depressed once again.

“Please give me your guidance, Master.” Ya Er immediately asked Liu Xinyue humbly.

“Like you said, the taste changed from sweet to cool, and the aftertaste became fresh and a little numb.”

“Then, according to these changes, when you combine the knowledge from the medicinal herbs that I taught you before, you can see that apart from the cool and flavorless seeds, there are also the Sky Leaf Grass and the Snake-shaped Grass.”

“Heavenly Leaves Grass and Serpentine Grass?”

Hearing that, Ya Er’s eyes lit up, and he quickly said, “The Heavenly Leaf Grass is originally just a normal medicinal herb, but if used as food ingredients, it has a refreshing effect.”

“Snake shaped grass, on the other hand, can cause people to feel numb. Moreover, if the amount used is too high, it can cause people to feel numb, as if they have been poisoned.”

Having been reminded by Liu Xinyue, the knowledge regarding medicinal herbs that she had taught before quickly surfaced in Ya Er’s mind.

“That’s right, but other than these four ingredients, there’s actually another medicinal ingredient in these black vegetables.”

Liu Xinyue nodded his head, for Ya Er to be able to react so quickly, it meant that he was indeed well-versed in the usage of medicinal herbs, but he was still unable to practice and use them proficiently.

It seemed that he would have to give Ya Er more opportunities to train harder in the future.

“There’s another medicinal herb?”

Ya Er could only differentiate between two herbs, and he had just added two more, he thought that these four herbs would be enough. After all, if it wasn’t for the pure medicinal cuisine, he would only be able to use one or two of these herbs.

For example, the black dish in front of him had already placed 4 medicinal ingredients, which was already enough to make Ya Er a little surprised. He never thought that Liu Xinyue would actually say that there was another medicinal ingredient?

So… Was there a total of five medicinal herbs in this dish?

“That’s right, but because the last medicinal ingredient grinded it into powder and added the juice, it’s normal that you can’t taste it.”

Liu Xinyue slowly explained.

“Master, what is the last ingredient?” Ya Er did not expect that things would turn out like this, and anxiously asked.

“It’s a mountain ginseng.”

“Ginseng?!”

Ya Er was startled, just as Liu Xinyue had said, he could not taste the slightest bit of mountain ginseng.

“That’s right, but the mountain ginseng in this black vegetable shouldn’t be pure mountain ginseng. There should be some other stuff mixed in there to make the juice. If that’s the case, then the mountain ginseng’s taste will be even weaker.”

Liu Xinyue nodded, then comforted Ya Er: “I’ve only been learning for a few days like you, it’s impossible for me to taste it.”

“However, it’s already quite good for you to be able to taste two medicinal herbs.”

“Master, I will definitely learn from you even more diligently in the future. I definitely won’t let you down like today.”

Ya Er said to Liu Xinyue with incomparable seriousness. He had always known that his master was a person with extremely strong abilities, although he was a little confused as to why such a capable person would be despised by Liu Minshan.

However, that was not important. What was important was that this person was his master, the one who could bring him a different life!

And just now, Liu Xinyue had displayed that he was able to distinguish the raw materials from the simple taste of a few dishes. Ya Er was truly impressed, but at the same time, yearned for it.

He didn’t know when he would be able to do this.

“If you want to learn these things, you cannot be anxious, so Ya Er, you don’t have to worry, just take it slow.”

After Liu Xinyue heard this, he smiled and said.

Previously, when he tested Ya Er, Liu Xinyue discovered that he might not have much talent in medicine, but he definitely had a lot of talent in alchemy and medicine.

The current Ya Er was still very weak, but Liu Xinyue believed that as long as he was willing to work hard, his future would definitely be immeasurable.

“Understood, Mistress.” Ya Er nodded, and etched these words of Liu Xinyue’s into his heart.

The master and servant duo finished their conversation. Unexpectedly, someone in front of them started to interrupt.

“What Ultimate Vexation? Snake shaped grass? What a load of nonsense!”

Because when Liu Xinyue had been talking to Ya Er, she had thought of speaking in a low voice without anyone noticing, so she didn’t use the queen bug’s sound transmission method and instead spoke directly to Ya Er.

He just didn’t expect that such a soft voice would be heard by him.

“I wonder what Dr. Huo is saying? “Why can’t I understand it?”

Liu Xinyue would naturally not admit that he said it himself, thus he acted like he was puzzled and asked a question in reply.
