When Lou Qufeng heard this, he also fell silent, he was just a civil servant, and there was nothing he could do.
Lou Qingwu heaved a sigh of relief when her ears finally cleared up.
But at this moment, the extremely tense situation was suddenly broken by a voice: "Uncle Huang, just now Yi Ren heard Miss Lou say that she can open it!"
"Huh?" Lou Qingwu's eyes turned cold when she heard her name being called.
Turning her head to look to the right, she met the back of Princess Zhaoxia's head. She stood up and told Emperor Zong very clearly, "Uncle Huang, since Miss Lou said yes, let her try it." Bar."
Everyone reacted, and everyone's attention was focused on her.
"Oh? Qingwu, can you?" Emperor Zong's original deep eyes suddenly lit up.
Seeing this bright color, Lou Qingwu's covered eyes became even colder. If she said she didn't say anything at this moment, she would have slapped Princess Zhaoxia in the face. Lou Qufeng was probably the only one who heard the words. If Lou Qufeng were to testify, how could he offend Prince Zong? Even if she was his daughter, Lou Qufeng would not stand by her side. Obviously, Princess Zhaoxia grasped this point of her, that's why she was so reckless, made up things, and wanted to see her make a fool of herself.
All eyes were on her, so Lou Qingwu had no choice but to stand up, under the expectant eyes of everyone and Princess Zhaoxia's resentful and jealous eyes.
nodded.
She nodded, and Emperor Zong finally smiled and heaved a sigh of relief.
Princess Zhaoxia was stunned for a moment, she didn't expect her to nod, then she smiled mockingly, sat down and waited for her to make a fool of herself.
Lou Qingwu glanced at her one more time, with an inexplicable smile on the corner of her mouth, with a sense of indifference, which made Princess Zhaoxia frowned, but turned her back and gave her a hard look.
Immediately, he was pulled by Prince Zong, who hated that iron could not be made into steel.
Princess Zhaoxia then withdrew her gaze and became a generous and decent princess.
"Since you said that, Qingwu, just give it a try and don't feel pressured." Zongdi always knew that this woman was smart, but no matter how smart she was, she was just a weak woman, a lock that even a martial artist couldn't pull open. worried. But after all, he had already opened his mouth, so he reluctantly let her try.
"Yes, Your Majesty." Lou Qingwu lowered her eyebrows, stood up and came to the center of the banquet.
Without raising her head, she could feel everyone's eyes on her, two of them were particularly eye-catching, one was hot and the other was cold.
Lou Qingwu looked casually, one came from Xia Houqing, and the other... was Shu Yunyan.
Lou Qingwu walked to the box, knelt down and studied it. The lock made of thousand-year-old black iron cannot be opened with ordinary brute force. Unless there is a special key, even a skilled craftsman can't do it. However, Looking at the box, in fact, she is more keen to open the box in the simplest and rude way, find a powerful sword, and just split the box, it is so troublesome and frustrating.
It's a pity that this kind of method is fine if you think about it. If you really do that, I'm afraid it will only give Dong Yuguo an arrogant impression. If it spreads, it will definitely not be a good start.
After thinking about it carefully, a sharp light flashed in Lou Qingwu's eyes, and then she stood up and looked at the great eunuch Liu Jin beside Emperor Zong.
"Eunuch Liu, can you take a step to speak?"
Liu Jin glanced at Emperor Zong and walked over after getting a signal from Emperor Zong.
"Princess, but do you have something to tell the miscellaneous family?"
"En." Lou Qingwu nodded, moved closer to Liu Jin, and gave some instructions. Liu Jin looked at Lou Qingwu in surprise, but left in a hurry without asking any questions.
Lou Qingwu stood there leisurely, lowering her eyes quietly, the light from the surrounding night pearls hit her body, adding a bit of softness to her.
"Qing Wu, why are you wearing a veil?"
Emperor Zong also noticed that the surroundings were too cold, so he randomly found a topic.
"I'm telling the emperor that my daughter got red spots on her face after eating something bad, so she put on a veil for fear of scaring others."
"Don't be an ugly monster." A small murmur came from behind Shu Yunyan, the voice was very low, but Lou Qingwu's ears were different from ordinary people's, and she still heard it. When she looked up, she found that Xiliang Mubai was dressed as a follower Standing behind Shu Yunyan with a serious look, his face was full of boredom and disdain.
She looked at him a few more times, and finally moved down a little, and moved away calmly.
Xiliang Mubai saw it inadvertently, and his body froze.
Did he get it wrong just now
How dare this woman laugh at her
But it's wrong to think about it, she can't know herself... herself... she glared at Lou Qingwu angrily, seeing that she couldn't know her secret even if she lowered her eyebrows, she snorted and turned her head away.
"Do you need the imperial doctor to take a look at it for you?" Emperor Zong smiled kindly when he heard this.
If Lou Qingwu didn't know what he planned to do to Su Gelao secretly, she would really think that he was a benevolent emperor, but in the royal family, how could he not be stained with blood? But it's one thing to think about it in your heart, but it's another thing to say it out. Lou Qingwu's performance was just right, her eyes filled with surprise, she shook her head quickly: "No need, thank the emperor for your concern, it's not a big problem, Qingwu can handle it."
"That's good." When Emperor Zong spoke, Liu Jin had already returned, holding a tray in his hand covered with a red cloth, and nothing could be seen.
Walking up to Lou Qingwu, he handed the things to her.
Lou Qingwu took it, thanked Liu Jin, flattered Liu Jin, waved his hands again and again, and returned to Emperor Zong.
Emperor Zong asked a few words in his ear, and when Liu Jin answered, obvious surprise flashed in Emperor Zong's eyes.
Looking at Lou Qingwu, she didn't know how she needed those two things to open the lock that was made of black iron for thousands of years.
Lou Qingwu took the two things, turned around, first put them aside, then squatted beside the box, and lifted the red hijab on the tray, revealing the contents inside.
Everyone couldn't help but stood up and looked at the things on the tray, but when the people who were close saw the things inside, their expressions became extremely surprised, and they didn't understand that Princess Rende was holding such an ordinary graphite inkstone. What to do with the black dirt
Lou Qingwu didn't explain, first she ground a piece of graphite finely on the graphite inkstone, and after a while, she saw very fine powder falling down, and quickly accumulated into a small pile. What looked like black mud was also ground into powder in the same way. When the two piles of powder appeared in front of her, Lou Qingwu mixed the two together, then took the rice paper prepared on the side, and poured the two mixed powders on top.
