The Marriage of an Esteemed Supreme Healer, a Noble Ruler
Chapter 166 - ApprovedChapter 166: Approved
Amygdalin leaves and Black Sage Vine did not go together. Hence, it would leave a layer on the plank after wiping.
Even though the brush did not have any ink, it was made of snow wolf fur. Thus, it could easily leave marks on the plank. It was a rather simple method, but it would stump anyone who did not have an understanding of it.
The pair wanted to make things difficult for Chu Liuyue so that she would embarrass herself.
They were gloating when Chu Liuyue said that the item was not working, thinking that they had successfully played a trick on her. However, they could no longer laugh when they saw the words on the plank.
The smile on Cui Yao’s face stiffened as his eyes filled with surprise, making him look rather odd.
Chu Liuyue finished writing a line of text before she looked up at the pair with a smile. “It seems like it’s not broken. See, it writes pretty well.”
Cui Yao’s expression was stiff as if he had just swallowed a fly!
Mo Liang suppressed his anger as he pointed at Chu Liuyue. “You knew how the plank worked all along! Were you playing with us?!”
Chu Liuyue blinked. “Yeah.”

“You! Nonsense! Chu Liuyue, do you know where this is? How dare you lie to us!” said Mo Liang during his fit of anger and shame.
Chu Liuyue curled her lips into a half-smile. “Weren’t the two of you making this difficult for me first? I’m just here to get some herbs, yet you’re making things so difficult for me. I’m just giving the both of you a taste of your own medicine. Is that too much?”
Chu Liuyue’s reply silenced the two.
However… they did not expect things to turn out this way with Chu Liuyue. Not only did their prank fail, but they even embarrassed themselves!
Chu Liuyue looked down and continued writing. “Senior Brothers, please hold on. I still have quite a number of things to write.”
The pair immediately looked over when they heard her, only to see that her brush strokes were smooth and continuous. It was like she did not need to think at all.
In a short time, the plank was already half-full of words!
Chu Liuyue also did not seem like she was going to stop writing anytime soon!
It was only then that the pair realized that things had spiraled out of their control.
Mo Liang swallowed stiffly. “Chu Liuyue, each person can only fill one application. Return the remaining Black Sage Vine planks to us now!”
Chu Liuyue did not even look up. “But Senior Brother, you gave them to me. It doesn’t make sense if I can’t write on them, no?”
Chu Liuyue had already filled up the first plank. She beamed at the pair as she held up the remaining two planks.
“Thank you for your generosity, Senior Brothers.” With that, she continued writing on the two planks!
What a joke! She needed numerous herbs to suppress the poison in Liao Zhongshu’s body in the first place. Plus, the two of them were asking for it, so how could she not teach them a lesson?
As they watched Chu Liuyue, Mo Liang’s heart sank.
Finally, when all three planks were filled up, Chu Liuyue handed them over. “Senior Brothers, these are the herbs that I’d like to pick up this time. Please send in my applications for the teachers to review.”
Mo Liang’s entire body was stiff.
Cui Yao was frustrated by the smile on Chu Liuyue’s face, and he grabbed the planks from her. “You’re biting off more than you can chew! We shall see if the teacher approves of your applications!”
With that, he opened the door and headed inside.
The door was closed shut.

Chu Liuyue shrugged, took a few steps back, and waited patiently.
At this thought, his heart fell back into place.
…
Time seemed to pass incredibly slowly as they waited.
He turned to glance at Chu Liuyue, only to find that she was standing there casually as if she was not worried at all.
This frustrated him, and he knitted his brows tightly together.
The door finally opened after another 15 minutes, and Cui Yao walked out.
There was nothing in his hands other than the cleaned Black Sage Vine planks! He did not have any herbs in his hands!
Cui Yao’s expression was a little strange. He handed the planks to Mo Liang and walked over to his side without saying anything.
Mo Liang felt that something was amiss. “What’s wrong?”
Cui Yao looked at Chu Liuyue with a complex gaze and spat out the words stiffly. “… Her application was approved.”
“How could this be possible?” Mo Liang jumped up instantly, his face full of disbelief.
Cui Yao rubbed his face. “Mr. Zuo Rong said that they were too many things and that some are in rather obscure places. Hence, it will take some time. He told us to wait for a while and that he would personally bring the things out later.”
