    "Yeah!" Yizhen pretended to be thoughtful.

    "Princess, princess, please!" Yu Heng walked to the front and asked someone to open the door, allowing Yizhen and Huaxi to enter.

    The fragrance room was in the backyard of Liluoju. Yu Heng led Yizhen and Huaxi along the Chaoshou corridor and through the Crescent Gate to the backyard.

    The further we walked, the faint smell of lake water in the air became more and more obvious. Huaxi asked, "Is Liluoju very close to Li Lake?"

    Yizhen couldn¡¯t help but said in surprise: ¡°Hua Xi, you are really sensitive to smells, you can also distinguish such subtle differences!¡±

    "The princess is absolutely right." Yu Heng also praised with a smile.

    Yizhen glanced at Yu Heng, "Let's see how dare you boast in the future that you are the 'first person in Tiandu to taste fragrance' in Haikou!"

    "Don't underestimate me" Yu Heng raised his eyebrows at Yizhen with a very affectionate expression, but his tenderness was not responded to.  Yizhen seemed as if she hadn't seen him, and was talking to Hua Xi by herself.

    Yu Heng sighed secretly and thought to himself, Yi Zhen must still be angry about Mu Lan But now that things have developed to this point, he is afraid that he will have to go through a lot of troubles to save it. He did not expect this situation.  Unreached.  It turns out that even if Yizhen doesn't like herself very much, at least she accepts this marriage in her heart and treats herself closer than others.  But now, that neither salty nor cool attitude made Yu Heng extremely helpless, and he became more and more angry with Mu Lan for cheating on her pregnancy and Xun Rou for adding fuel to the fire and not doing anything serious.

    Thinking again about the crying look of Mu Lan and the cold face of the concubine in the concubine's room last night Yu Heng was even more angry. The concubine also thought that if Yizhen really broke off the engagement, she would marry Mu Lan as his wife!  It's a woman's opinion. If this marriage really gets messed up because of Mu Lan, the person who will lose the most is not the Zhidu Palace or the royal family, but himself.

    No matter who becomes emperor in the future, the one whose status is least likely to change is Yizhen.  As long as he is married to Yizhen, it will not be difficult for him to withdraw or cut off the relationship in times of crisis.

    Yu Heng glanced at Yizhen and Huaxi and said with a smile: "Since the princess said that I am not as good as the princess, I will definitely ask the princess for advice later."

    "Ask me for advice?" Huaxi was stunned for a moment, and someone poked her from behind.  Before she could speak, Yizhen said, "You won't lose to him!"

    Yizhen took Huaxi into the fragrance room.

    The fragrance mixing room is paved with marble, with an inner and outer room, spices and incense utensils placed in the outer room, and a mixing barrel on one side of the inner room.

    Hua Xi frowned slightly and asked, "Where did you get this bucket of Third Young Master?"

    It is said that in order to make this blending bucket, Huaxi walked around Tianducheng for a long time and asked many oil and incense shops before drawing two versions.  She can guarantee that she is the first person in Tiandu who can make this perfume bucket.  However, after the first version was produced and tried out, Huaxi felt that it was flawed and made some small improvements. However, the mixing bucket Yu Heng created was eighty-nine times similar to the first version she painted.  This made Huaxi have to wonder, could his drawings have flowed out of the house through the manufacturing office?

    "I accidentally got it from an old craftsman in the city. The old craftsman's apprentice wanted to make this barrel. In some places, it was difficult to meet the requirements after repeated attempts, so I asked the old craftsman to go there. I happened to order a set of molds, and accidentally  I caught a glimpse of it, and the old man gave me a look, and suggested some ways to improve it" Yu Heng stroked the water mill table where the mixing bucket was placed, looking at the mixing bucket, "After I returned home, I drew the pattern from memory.  , I asked people to try it, but I didn¡¯t expect it to be done.¡±

    "Young Master, do you not know where that pattern comes from?"

    "I have been asking for a long time, but the master and the apprentice refused to say anything" Yu Heng shook his head and said with regret, "I would like to meet this strange man The princess said that there is also a fragrance room in the princess's mansion.  , could it be that this bucket is also inside?"

    Huaxi picked up the long string of Angelica dahurica leaves that were not dried next to it, "Well, I brought the pattern from Dahua. It was a gift from my aunt. She once settled in Quanzhou, and the pattern of this mixing barrel was passed down from the other side of the sea.  Came here. As for who the original artist was, it¡¯s really hard to verify.¡±

    "Ah - it turns out that the drawing came from the princess! This" Yu Heng suddenly realized, he bowed and saluted, and said apologetically, "It's all Yu Heng's recklessness. He was happy to see the picture, took it for himself without asking, used the princess's drawing, and returned  I hope the princess will forgive me!"

    Huaxi didn¡¯t believe Yu Heng didn¡¯t know where the picture came from, but he had already used it, and he had no objection to arguing about it. Besides, King Zhidu was obsessed with fragrance, and Yu Heng¡¯s fragrance creation was just to suit his father¡¯s preferences.  Since he didn't want to point it out, why did he bother to quarrel with Prince Zhidu's palace over these trivial matters?

    Huaxi smiled and said, "It doesn't matter. It's just a toolthe tool is an external object, just a helper. But to create a good fragrance, it takes an epiphany in the heart, a keen sense of perception and a special ratio of ingredients.?? is the key.  When blending fragrances, you can only capture the good fragrance when you are outside the transcendental world and have spiritual awareness.  And if there are too many distracting thoughts in the heart, the fragrance will be impure. Even if the fragrance lasts for a long time, it will lose its soul Mr. Yu Heng, do you think what I said is true or not?  "

    Yu Heng lowered his eyes and thought deeply, smacking his lips at the profound meaning of Huaxi's words. He was stunned for a moment and couldn't move.

    Hua Xi¡¯s eyes fell on the grinding table. He walked over and pinched a handful, put it to his nose and smelled, "Cloves, cardamom, and camphor crystals"

    Hua Xi reported the same thing, and Yizhen glanced sideways at Yu Heng, with a playful look in her eyes, as if waiting for Yu Heng to speak.

    Yu Heng suddenly woke up and nodded: "The princess is absolutely right. I am experimenting with using a mixing barrel to make a blend of sesame oil."

    "Hmm!" Hua Xi turned around and looked at the steam rising in the mixing barrel. The mixing barrel was covered with a light curtain of fog, and the air in the room was filled with various aromas.

    Hua Xi closed her eyes, observed the fragrance with her nose, and tasted it with her heart. This was the taste of many spices: sweet, faintly spicy, not spicy, mildit stimulated the sense of smell just right, and the feeling was like the desolate wild wind.  When I first saw flowers blooming quietly, I felt a sense of joy at seeing hope surge in my heart.

    "Pea flowers, violets, wild hyacinths, honeysuckle" Hua Xi closed her eyes and slowly spit out a string of spice names.

    The more Yu Heng listened, the more surprised he became, "Last time at Xiangxi, I had seen the princess' skill in tasting incense. I didn't expect that today would be an eye-opener. I could tell the ingredients in it just by using this mixed incense mist. I'm afraid in Tiandu  Only that boy Fang Liu from the Fang family can compare with the princess!"

    Hua Xi opened her eyes, but did not respond to Yu Heng's question. Instead, she shook her head, "Unfortunately, if you can add some lemon oil to this fragrance, and use the sour fragrance to neutralize some of the pungent smell, you can make the fragrance even more delicious."  vivid¡­¡­"

    "Lemon oil?" Yu Heng heard it for the first time and asked curiously, "Where can I find this?"

    Huaxi replied: "As far as I know, there may be some on the islands in the southeastern sea, but no one has brought them back so far."

    Yu Heng looked disappointed, but at this moment he admired Huaxi very much, and his attitude became more humble, "To be honest with you, Princess, I have always felt that there is something wrong with this fragrance, but I have tried it for a long time and there is no improvement. Today, I heard from the Princess  What the Lord said suddenly made sense, but there is no lemon oil. Is there any other way?"

    Hua Xi thought for a while and said, "There is no lemon oil, so I can consider the dosage of camphor and cardamom at my own discretion and reduce it slightly. Maybe the smell will be milder."

    "Thank you for the tip, Princess!" Yu Heng said with cupped hands, "Also, I have a gracious request. I wonder if Princess can stay in Bieyuan for two more days and help me mix this sesame oil?"
