What? The princess is actually related to ginseng?
Liu Zhang was even more confused. Could it be that the princess was transformed from ginseng?
Isn’t this nonsense?
"Gongda, the princess is a human being, how can it be related to ginseng?"
"Ahem, lord. Gongda means the title Wannian, not this person."
Jia Xu was a little confused about Liu Zhang's IQ today, and quickly reminded him.
"Ah! I'm really confused today, Gongda, please continue."
Liu Zhang was also amused by himself and showed an apologetic look to Xun You.
"Hahaha, my lord's idea is quite interesting! It's just that the princess has nothing to do with ginseng, but the title of Wannian is inextricably related to ginseng."
Xun You didn't expect Liu Zhang to be so imaginative, so he couldn't help but be amused by him.
"The origin of this ginseng is unknown, but Zhang Ji is right. It was indeed passed down by our great ancestor Liu Bang!"
"But it is said that Emperor Gaozu killed the White Snake in the uprising, and the White Snake turned into ginseng after its death. However, these are too vague to be convincing."
"Anyway, this ginseng has been around for at least four hundred years!"
Liu Zhang nodded and understood what Xun You meant. No matter where this ginseng came from, it must be old enough! Maybe by the time Liu Bang got it, he didn't know how many years it had been!
"Then what does the princess have to do with this ginseng?"
Xun You laughed a few times and gently stroked his beard with his hand.
"This princess's status is extraordinary. She is deeply loved by His Majesty!"
"This ginseng plant has survived for hundreds of years. If it keeps growing, it may be passed down to the world for thousands of years! Your Majesty wants to turn the ginseng into Guo Zuo, bless the princess with Guo Zuo, and give her the title of Ten Thousand Years Princess!"
Now Liu Zhang knew the origin of the title of Princess Wannian, but he became even more depressed.
"According to what Gongda said, it would be extremely difficult to get this ginseng!"
Liu Hong had pinned Guo Zuo on ginseng, so it was even more impossible for people to eat it. If it were eaten by others, wouldn't it be the ruin of the Han Dynasty?
Fortunately, Xun You knew the story of this ginseng plant. Otherwise, if he had gone to Liu Hong rashly, wouldn't he have been labeled as a treason?
"Lord, there is nothing we can do."
When Xun You said these words, Liu Zhang was really shocked. Can you even do this?
"Gongda, this matter is not a child's play. If His Majesty knows that we are plotting ginseng, I'm afraid he won't let it go easily!"
Liu Zhang's tone was very serious. Now it was no longer about whether Huang Xu could survive, but about everyone around him.
Xun You also nodded seriously in response. Naturally, he would not joke about such a thing.
"My lord, the key point in this matter lies with Princess Wannian."
"What?"
Liu Zhang couldn't understand more and more. Should he let Princess Wannian steal it? That's even more impossible!
Xun You seemed to understand Liu Zhang's thoughts and quickly waved to him.
"My lord, this ginseng plant is currently under the care of Princess Wannian. Ginseng sheds a large number of branches and leaves every year, and these are often collected as valuable medicinal materials!"
"It is said that these scattered branches and leaves are far more powerful than ordinary ginseng. If we can get these branches and leaves, we might be able to save Huang Xu's life!"
Liu Zhang suddenly realized that no wonder Xun You said that the key point was Princess Wannian.
If Princess Wannian agrees, let alone the scattered branches and leaves, just break off a piece of ginseng, and no one will know.
It seems easy, but it’s incredibly difficult to do!
Why did Princess Wannian agree? Neither he nor Huang Zhong knew each other, so how could he have the obligation to save Huang Xu?
Liu Zhang sighed softly, then shook his head helplessly.
"Hey! This method seems easy, but in fact it is impossible to do it..."
"host..."
Xun You still wanted to speak, but he saw Jia Xu winking and shaking his head at him.
"Lord, we still have some things to deal with, so please leave now!"
Jia Xu walked up to Liu Zhang and directly asked to leave.
"Okay, you go and do your work first!"
Liu Zhang's eyes were empty and he answered absentmindedly.
Jia Xu directly pulled Xun You out of the house, which aroused the latter's dissatisfaction.
"Wenhe, what's wrong with you?"
Jia Xu looked back and made sure there was no one around.
"You are so confused!"
Xun You looked confused, "What's wrong with me?"
"Are you planning to ask the lord to marry Princess Wannian? In this way, you can not only gain the status of the royal consort, but also take the opportunity to obtain ginseng?"
Xun You nodded and admitted directly.
"Yes, Your Majesty loves Princess Wannian so much. If the Lord marries her, wouldn't his power be more stable?"
"Gongda, if my lord marries Princess Wannian, what will happen to Cai Yan? It's not like you don't know the relationship between my lord and Cai Yan!"
Jia Xu directly proposed Cai Yan, but Xun You didn't take it seriously at all.
"Wen He, a manly man, how can he miss a big event because of a woman! Besides, Cai Yan only needs to be a concubine, and it's not like he can't be with his master!"
Xun You's idea is very simple. Doesn't Liu Zhang like Cai Yan? Yes, Cai Yan is still Liu Zhang's woman, but her identity has changed!
In this way, you can marry a princess, gain power and ginseng, but won't lose Cai Yan. Isn't it the best of both worlds?
Jia Xu didn't agree with Xun You's view at all, and kept shaking his head in rejection.
"Gongda, you think too simply. My lord is a temperamental man. If he proposes to make Cai Yan his concubine, he will never agree! Think about Wei Zhongdao's fate!"
"If you proposed the idea just now, would my lord agree or not?"
"If you agree, the lord will be disloyal to Cai Yan, and he will not be able to pass the test in his own heart! If you don't agree, what will Huang Zhong think if he finds out about it in the future? Wouldn't this be setting the lord up for injustice?"
Jia Xu became more and more excited as he spoke, and his words contained blame.
Xun You became more and more shocked as he listened. He had been thinking about the benefits he would get from marrying the princess, but ignored these negative effects.
"Wen He, it's just that when I refused His Majesty's marriage proposal just now, I saw that there was a trace of regret in the Lord's words, so..."
Jia Xu stretched out his hand and interrupted Xun You.
"Gongda, I agree with your idea, but this kind of thing cannot come from our mouths!"
Xun You watched Jia Xu's eyes flickering, and he instantly understood what he meant.
"Wen He, what do you mean?"
Jia Xu curled his lips and shook his head gently.
"I didn't mean anything, and I didn't say anything."
Xun You was also amused by Jia Xu's cunning look, and stretched out his hand to give pointers to Jia Xu.
"Hahaha, you old fox."
