“Indeed, he is my brother Yiri.” Sanqiu replied.
Yun Qianyu’s lips twitched. There really was!
Sanqiu continued, “The prince kept saying that a day apart feels like three autumns, and that he was a sentimental person who would miss his love for a long time. Then he changed my and my brother’s names. Two other people also had their names changed at the same time, one was named Changqing (meaning ‘long-lasting affection’) and the other was named Changsi (meaning ‘long-lasting longing’).”
Yun Qianyu blinked her beautiful eyes, pursed her cherry lips, and then looked deeply at Sanqiu. She was certain that Sanqiu had brought this up on purpose today and probably wanted to say more than just that.
Sure enough, Sanqiu continued, “The princess’s luminous pearl was found by us guards who searched all over the world. And that cloak of the princess took over two years to weave. Because the princess likes blue, the prince searched everywhere for a natural blue material that could be woven into fabric— a material that was warm, soft, and wouldn’t fade. Later, he discovered that a reclusive tribe used a small tuft of blue feathers from the tail of a peacock to weave a headscarf, which was both soft and beautiful. The prince began collecting peacock feathers, but even in that tribe, only the women of the chieftain and elders could afford such a headscarf, showing how rare peacock feathers were. So, just collecting the peacock feathers took two years, and with the weaving and sewing, it took a total of two years and three months.”
Having said so much in one breath, Sanqiu was somewhat impressed with himself. Who said he was bad with words? This was something no one could do. Sanqiu thought to himself: Master, I have already exceeded my limits to help you win the heart of your beauty as soon as possible; this is all I can do for you.
Yun Qianyu was used to hiding her emotions. Although her expression remained normal, she was increasingly astonished as she listened. Gong Sangmo had gone to such lengths for her sake! While she found his actions somewhat childish, she was mostly moved! Her heart felt warm and sweet, her ears burned, and her heart raced!
He truly cared for her! Otherwise, why would he have done so much for her before she even knew anything?
Sanqiu, seeing that Yun Qianyu’s expression remained unchanged despite his words, grew anxious. The princess had clearly seen the light last night; why did she seem to have reverted to her old ways today? But when he noticed Yun Qianyu’s slightly reddened ears, his heart immediately relaxed. So the princess wasn’t unmoved after all! Thank goodness, his mistress had finally seen the light!
“Your Highness, although this isn’t something I, as a subordinate, should say, I simply want you to know the hardships His Highness has endured over the years. He cares deeply for you but cannot express it. He has silently done so much for you, far more than what I’ve mentioned today. Please give His Highness a chance. I believe that men as devoted and outstanding as His Highness are truly rare.”
Yun Qianyu looked up at Sanqiu in surprise. She hadn’t expected the usually taciturn Sanqiu to be so thoughtful, considering so much for his master. It was clear he genuinely felt for Gong Sangmo’s hardships.
“I understand!” Yun Qianyu said, looking at Sanqiu’s expectant eyes.
Sanqiu breathed a sigh of relief and changed the subject appropriately, saying, “Your Highness, His Highness also asked me to bring someone.”
“Hmm, is it Yun Nian?”
Sanqiu was taken aback. He had just mentioned that his master had asked him to bring someone, and the princess had already guessed who it was. Such a clever woman— no wonder his master had gone to so much trouble to marry her!
“Indeed.”
“Let him in!”
“Yes.”
