1433 Face Hurts

Upon glancing over, Duan Yue also made out the crumpled pieces of paper in the little stoic's hands right away.

This was a stack of gift lists that accompanied their respective gifts.

The little stoic remembered that there was definitely a fire magic horn leaf in here.

After taking great pains to browse through them for a bit, she finally found that gift list that included a fire magic horn leaf.

Standing up with a frown, the little stoic just flung out that gift list…

A scroll with a gift list just floated to the ground, and on it was written the details of the gifts. There were all kinds of miracle elixirs and curious treasures that one could wish for.

*Tap, tap, tap!* Afraid that Commandery Princess Yi'an had poor eyesight and was unable to see clearly, the little stoic walked up to Commandery Princess Yi'an by herself and slapped that gift list on Yi'an's face. "Take a look yourself!"

Father Qiao, who was sitting with the court officials, facepalmed in exasperation.

Meanwhile, Qin Guilu did not know whether other people could see the details of this gift list, but he had clearly espied various rare medicinal materials, pills, defensive dharma treasures, etc. This simply was…

Unfilial sons! Family Head Qin glared at Eldest Young Sir Qin, who had covered his face with his hand.

In truth, at that time, the eldest young sir had sent such a generous gift in order to disgust His Highness the Crown Prince.

Yet who would've expected the little stoic to act like this today. She made Family Head Qin realize in heartache that he had sent out so many presents, cough, cough, cough.

Although Second Young Sir Qin remained indifferent next to them, he gave the eldest young sir a contemplating look.

Who would have known! This guy had actually sent out such lavish gifts. From the length of that gift list, he estimated there to be 200 items from beginning to end without any of them repeating. Tsk, he really was generous.

Commandery Princess Yi'an was left stupefied as she gazed at the several characters before her eyes.

The four characters for fire magic horn leaf were written clearly on the gift list. Her face flushed red, and she simply felt like crying on the inside.

Previously, she had been speaking with conviction about how it was simply impossible for the crown prince consort to refine a level-15 mystic breakthrough pill because she did not have the key ingredient, the fire magic horn leaf, as a catalyst.

The result was…

She got face-slapped by the little stoic within moments.

Commandery Princess Yi'an could only feel her face hurt terribly and throb with pain.

However, if she were to step down now, the situation for her would end up even more wretched.

All eyes in the hall were on her, with most of them looking forward to watching an amusing show.

How could she retreat?

Commandery Princess Yi'an took a deep breath and declared with a scoff, "Even if you do possess the fire magic horn leaf, even if you are a pill alchemist, this cannot prove that there is nothing wrong at all with this level-15 mystic breakthrough pill."

"Commandery Princess, you're not making sense." Liang Qingqing interrupted with a grim look, "I believe that a portion of the people here are more informed than you on whether or not Little Junior Sister is a pill alchemist as well as the skill of her pill-refining technique."

"That's right, that's right." Wei Nanfeng grinned while waving his fan. "This commandery princess what's-her-name, the little stoic really is an excellent pill alchemist. The day before yesterday, this little fellow had just given the second highness of Baili a level-13 mystic breakthrough pill. Take a look today, this fellow from Baili is now a level-13 mystic cultivator."

Wei Nanfeng, this dunce's words promptly triggered massive ripples, and everyone looked over at Baili Xi. Sure enough, they could detect the energy fluctuations characteristic of a level-13 mystic cultivator coming from this second highness's body.

The little stoic loathed to explain and put away that pile of messy gift lists before walking back to her seat next to the crown prince with a wooden expression.

On the other hand, Commandery Princess Yi'an was utterly discomfited!

What was the deal?
