“Thank you for what?”
“Little girl, it’s not a good habit to kick someone after you’ve crossed the river!”
Feng Ran said coldly, “You’re meddling in other people’s business and you still have the nerve to ask for credit!”
Hua Manxi choked and said angrily, “Feng Ran, do you want to be beaten?”
“I think it’s Xi Wang who wants to be beaten.”
“Fine, if I don’t beat you up today, I won’t be able to sleep!”
“Likewise!”
“Choose a place!”
“Whatever you want!”
The two said and then rode away!
Yun Qianyu and Yujian looked at each other and shook their heads at the same time, and then got into their respective carriages.
In the carriage, Yun Qianyu remembered the purse that Hua Manxi had given her, took it out from her sleeve, weighed it in her hand, and found it quite heavy!
Yun Qianyu casually opened the purse, and inside it was a whole bunch of red beans!
The red beans were as hard as diamonds, as bright as blood, and shaped like a beating heart. They were red and shiny, and they were not eaten or rotten. Their color was crystal clear and would never fade. These are all qualities bestowed upon it by nature. Most importantly, its shape and patterns are both in the shape of the Chinese character “心” (heart).
Legend has it that it was formed from the tears of someone suffering from unrequited love, who shed tears under the tree. Therefore, red beans were a lucky charm with spiritual power.
Yun Qianyu stared blankly at the purse full of red beans!
Did Hua Manxi really just pick them for her to play with casually, or did he have ulterior motives?
After Gong Sangmo’s confession last night, Yun Qianyu had become more perceptive and was no longer a naive girl who didn’t understand love, so she naturally thought more deeply.
Soon they arrived at the palace. And Yun Qianyu put away the red beans and got off the carriage. She went to Murong Cang’s place with Yujian. Yujian was kept by Murong Cang to learn how to handle memorials, while Yun Qianyu returned to her own palace.
She casually tossed the purse onto the table, and Chen Xiang and the other four immediately surrounded her.
“Master, who sent this? It couldn’t be the Xian Wang again, could it? The Xian Wang is so thoughtful!” Chen Xiang picked out a few red beans and looked at them.
“It was a gift from Hua Manxi!”
“What? From Xi Wang?”
Chen Xiang stared blankly at the purse full of red beans. Yu Nuo, Ying Yu, Man’er, and Hong Su also looked at Yun Qianyu with strange eyes.
The question on their minds was, could it be that their mistress liked Xi Wang? Even someone as handsome as Xian Wang hadn’t caught their mistress’s eye, so why would she take a fancy to Xi Wang?
“Xi Wang picked these on his way to meet the envoy from Modai Kingdom, saying they were for me to play with,” Yun Qianyu explained, a rare occurrence.
“Mistress, you can’t just accept these things,” Chen Xiang couldn’t help but say.
“Yes, I know! I didn’t have time to see what was inside,” Yun Qianyu said, walking towards the bathhouse.
Yu Nuo and Chen Xiang quickly followed, pouring hot water into the tub and adjusting the temperature with cold water before helping Yun Qianyu change.
Yun Qianyu soaked comfortably in the hot water, closing her eyes.
Inside the Thousand Words Pavilion of the Xian Wang’s Mansion, Gong Sangmo was reviewing a memorial in his hand, with Sanqiu standing guard beside him.
A knock came at the door.
Sanqiu glanced at Gong Sangmo, who nodded, and he went to open the door.
“Brother, what is it?” Sanqiu asked.
“Her Highness the Princess has returned to the palace,” Yiri said from outside.
Gong Sangmo said, “Come in and report.”
Yiri entered, glanced at Gong Sangmo’s expression, then hesitated before saying, “Today, Xi Wang went to pick up the envoy from the Kingdom of Modai, and on the way, he picked a whole purse full of red beans and gave it to Her Highness the Princess.”
“She accepted it?” Gong Sangmo’s expression changed.
