“Not really.”
Ye Qianning just thinks that this black peony is very similar to Qinglong Womochi, but if you look closely at the stamens, there are some differences.
The petals of Qinglong Womochi are dark purple, while the one in front of you is pure black. It looks almost the same as Qinglong Womochi in the night light.
“But I think the blue dragon lying in the ink pond matches this flower very well.” After Sang Lanyu finished speaking, she turned to look at Concubine Zhan: “Concubine, do you think so?”
Concubine Zhan's eyes lit up when she heard the name of the flower. Then she looked at the dark spot among the flowers, which really fit the sound of a blue dragon lying in the ink pond.
“The blue dragon lies in the ink pond, what a blue dragon lying in the ink pond.”
“As expected of Mr. Chen’s personal disciple, we admire him for his knowledge.”
“Senior aunt is very talented and knowledgeable.”
A group of literati happened to be kneeling in front of the flower stand. They turned around and saw the dark peony, with excitement and admiration in their eyes.
Emperor Beili was also shocked, and his face lit up with joy: "Qinglong Womochi is a good name. It just so happens that this flower has not been nominated yet. From now on, we will call it Qinglong Womochi."
Ye Qianning didn't have any reaction when he heard the compliment: "Qinglong Womochi is the name of another peony, not the one in front of me. I just misidentified this flower."
…”
“A flower with the name of Blue Dragon Lying in Ink Pond must be extraordinary, and only senior sister with rich experience can see it.”
“Senior sister is well-informed. Unlike us, we don’t know as much as we do at a young age.”
"Yep."
After hearing this, the literati praised him again.
Ye Qianning: “…”
Master has really found a good group of trustees...
…”
Emperor Beili glanced at the kneeling scholar without leaving a trace, frowning slightly dissatisfied, but there was something these people said that made sense. The flower known as the Blue Dragon Lying in the Ink Pond was absolutely extraordinary.
“The blue dragon lying in the ink pond is also a peony?” he asked. Ye Qianning nodded.
“Where does it grow?”
“Island.”
“No wonder I and everyone else have never heard of it. It turns out it is on the ‘Immortal Island’.” Emperor Beili seemed to mention it intentionally.
Faith Island?
What fairy island?
Many people looked at Ye Qianning. Although they were curious, no one asked questions.
The kneeling scholar was just confused for a moment and didn't care about whether the island was a fairy island or not.
Ye Qianning seemed not to have heard what Emperor Bei Li said, and took a few steps to the side to admire other flowers.
Emperor Beili was very unhappy when no one asked. Just as he was about to mention it again, he was overtaken by Concubine Zhan beside him.
“Your Majesty, you see it is Ziyoulan.”
Emperor Beili glared at her with dissatisfaction, then looked not far away. The palace maid came over carrying a pot of purple flowers.
Concubine Zhan glanced at him as if she didn't see his anger. She turned around and greeted the concubines and daughters: "This is Ziyoulan, who is known as the best in the world."
Everyone’s eyes fell on the purple orchid. There were two flowers in each purple orchid. The flowers were about the size of a fist and were pink and white in color.
Ye Qianning also noticed that the Purple Orchid looked beautiful alone, but in front of the King of Flowers Peony, it looked a bit plain and elegant.
The reason why it can be called the first is because the stamens glow with a long purple light under the night, which is not noticeable under the light. When the light is blown out, the weak light appears pink, which is very beautiful.
The eyes of some who knew Zi Youlan were slightly bright at this moment. There were also many people sitting here who didn’t know why Zi Youlan was famous and didn’t have much research on Zi Youlan.
Obviously neither Nan Xiang nor Sang Lanyu understood. They just glanced at each other and frowned slightly.
“Why do you feel so wrinkled?”
Nanxiang, who was still looking forward to it, was speechless when he saw the real thing.
