    The next day, Mu Xiangqing told Huaxi about the incense fight.

    "You don't like to show off, but now that this matter has been approved, it's hard to say anything. Just do your best, don't be nervous. Although I don't know how to make incense, I also know that just having a recipe may not be able to make it.  It smells so good, so I want you to be more careful when handling it yourself The Marquis is responsible for everything."

    Huaxi was a little surprised when she first heard the news, but it only took a moment for her to accept it calmly, because the emperor's life is so difficult.

    "You will rarely leave the house in the future. I told the housekeeper to find two good nurses to follow you."

    Mu Xiangqing specially sent a nurse to follow her for her safety.  Huaxi felt warm in her heart, "Auntie, thank you for your trouble."

    Within three days of Huaxi¡¯s quiet days, Yin Chengzong came to visit.

    Mu Xiangqing sent someone to invite Huaxi to meet the guests in the front hall. When Huaxi arrived, he found that it was not Yin Chengzong who came alone, but another acquaintance, Ji Xie.

    Mu Xiangqing called Huaxi into the hall, "Huaxi is here, come in quickly!"

    Hua Xi went up to Fen Fan to salute, and said with a smile: "Greetings to Prince Cheng, Mr. Ji and my aunt."

    Yin Chengzong's eyes stopped on Hua Xi the moment she came in. She wore a lake-blue lotus pattern crepe with a tapestry lining, a plain white skirt with eight green lotuses embroidered on the corners, and a palace sash and green ring around her waist.  The skirt, the snowy muscles and jade bones, the bare face and icy posture, the whole person is like an elegant green lotus, quite a bit independent from the world.

    When she frowned and smiled, her beautiful eyes made waves. She was elegant when she was quiet, and charming when she smiled. Yin Chengzong, who had seen all the beauties in the world, was lost for a moment. He had not seen her for more than a month, but when he saw her, he suddenly felt that three autumns had passed.  .

    Watching Hua Xi walk in, the sunny smile on Ji Xie's lips, who was chatting playfully with Mu Xiangqing, froze for a moment, and an almost undetectable dark light flashed across his eyes.

    "You don't need to be polite, girl!" Yin Chengzong quickly calmed down, "Please sit down! How are you doing, girl?"

    "Thanks to the prince's concern, everything is well in Huaxi." Huaxi sat down and raised his head to meet Ji Xie's eyes across from him. Seeing him nodding, Huaxi also nodded slightly.

    "To be honest, Yin came today to ask for something." Yin Chengzong went straight to the subject without any further politeness. He probably told Huaxi about the fight against incense, much more detailed than Mu Xiangqing.

    After discussing with Dahua, Xiyue decided to divide the incense competition into three sessions: testing incense, identifying incense, and competing incense.

    After hearing this, Hua Xi realized that these three competitions were not easy. When discussing them, some questions inevitably arose in her heart: "Testing and identifying fragrances is easy to judge, but this competition people have different hobbies and naturally prefer different fragrances."  How should we evaluate it?"

    Hua Xi explained the crux of the matter with one word. Yin Chengzong nodded and said with a smile: "What the girl said is absolutely true. This game is divided into three rounds, each with the same question, to test the fragrances. Because some fragrances need to be scented, both sides will have five points each for this question.  After three days, three questions will be drawn in court, and the topic will be decided before making incense. On the day of the incense contest, his name will be hidden, and after secret evaluation by both parties, the one with the most will win."

    Hua Xi understood clearly, "This is not a bad idea." A slight hint in front of the public might be exposed on the spot, and the secret comment avoids being filled with everyone's emotions, which is fair.

    Yin Chengzong asked again: "The incense used for testing and identifying incense can be put aside for the time being. The top priority is still the topic of incense competition. What topic should be chosen? Yin is here to discuss with the girl."

    Hua Xi asked: "The prince is also a lover of fragrance, what suggestions can you make?"

    "Hey, it would be best if the incense competition topic can use strengths and avoid weaknesses. It's just that Xiyue came prepared this time and there are a large number of people. We can't find out who is participating, let alone what type of incense they are good at. Furthermore, Xiyue  He is prolific in spices and has many masters in making them, so Yin has no definite plan in mind."

    Xiyue is also known as "Xiangguo". When Xiyue proposed this challenge, the tone of her speech made Jin Shang a little angry. She accepted it in a moment of arrogance. Then the King of Thailand proposed to leave it to him. After receiving the order, he felt  But there is no bottom at all.

    Hearing Yin Chengzong say that he had no idea, Huaxi thought helplessly, looking at the situation, he was prepared to do it himself.

    Hua Xi¡¯s thoughts are spinning, ¡°The islands in the southeast of Dahua also produce spices, but there are not as many types as in Xiyue. There are many similar and different species. You can write a topic here"

    Yin Chengzong asked in confusion: "What do you mean?"

    "The question is limited to the type of materials used. It's just that Huaxi doesn't leave home and doesn't know much about Xiyue incense making"

    "I have stayed in Xiyue for several years." Ji Xie, who was sitting opposite and had been silent, suddenly interjected, "Xiyue also has many synthetic fragrances, many of which are based on sandalwood and musk deer, which are strong and less quiet.  "

    Looking at HuaxiXie glanced at it and then turned to Yin Chengzong, "It's better to set a flower fragrance theme, and it must be an imitation fragrance. No flower petals are allowed in the ingredients."

    Yin Chengzong clapped his hands and said yes, "Okay! The imitation incense made by Huaxi is excellent. The smiling orchid incense you bought for the palace last time was filled with imitation incense, and it was all mixed with ingredients to create the fragrance of orchid."

    "Your Majesty is overly praised."

    Yin Chengzong¡¯s eyes were slightly hot, and Hua Xi felt a little uncomfortable. He smiled and turned his head, just in time to catch Ji Xie¡¯s thoughtful gaze, with a more dignified look on his eyebrows.

    Hua Xi frowned and asked, "Mr. Ji, is there anything wrong?"

    Ji Xie shook his head and raised the corners of his lips, "No, no. The girl from Huaxi has been famous for a long time. It's a pity that I don't have any perfume made by the girl in my hand, so I can't experience the wonderful fragrance that the prince said."

    After saying that, he took a deep look at Huaxi and asked with a smile, "I wonder if Miss Huaxi can reward Ji with two fragrances, so that Ji can appreciate the beauty of them."

    Huaxi glanced at Mu Xiangqing. He was not familiar with Ji Xie. The Cheng family and the Ji family had known each other for a long time. Mu Xiangqing wanted to be more familiar with Ji Xie. She wanted to ask Mu Xiangqing whether she could give this incense to her.

    Mu Xiangqing nodded slightly.

    Huaxi then said: "I dare not accept it. Huaxi must obey Mr. Ji's request." He turned around and whispered to Cuiming to go to the west courtyard to get two incense products.

    Yin Chengzong on the opposite side said again: "Girl Douxiang can take action this time, Ji thanks me in advance! I think this topic should be drafted by the girl first."

    Huaxi thought that he could almost finish it with half a day left, so he said: "Huaxi can help the prince draw up some topics, but I can't say that he is very sure. Please go back and ask someone to think about it."

    Yin Chengzong glanced at Huaxi, "Yeah! Then I can pick it up tomorrow?"

    "Can."

    Mu Xiangqing said: "The prince is busy with things. Huaxi has made plans. I will send a reliable person to the prince's mansion tomorrow. The prince does not need to make another trip."

    Yin Chengzong smiled and thanked him, "Excuse me, madam. Mr. Ji is familiar with the scenery of Xiyue, and his family does business in the southeast. If there is anything you need this time, Miss Huaxi can just tell me and me directly."

    After hearing this, Huaxi promised on the face, but he was a little angry in his heart, secretly cursing, dare to say that Yin Chengzong took over the job, and planned to recruit a strong man to be the boss, and even found a consultant for himself.

    Ji Xie took out a book from his arms and put it on the table, "This book is about the scenery of Xiyue, leave it to the girl for reference."

    After Huaxi accepted it, Yin Chengzong said: "It's getting late today, so I won't disturb Madam and Miss Huaxi any more. Mr. Ji and I will say goodbye first."

    Yin Chengzong and Ji Xie left.  Mu Xiangqing left Huaxi alone and said a few words, telling her to do her best and not to force herself.  Hua Xi thanked her and returned to the west courtyard. She stayed in the room and flipped through the books about Xi Yue left by Ji Xie. They were indeed much more informative than the miscellaneous notes about the parade in her hand.  After flipping through the book, Huaxi pondered for a while before writing a question.
