Even if others wanted to imitate it, they would not be able to imitate its exquisiteness, not to mention the word "Lin" engraved in a small corner of the jewelry.

In the palace, everyone was vying for attention, and who would want to wear a replica, thus being at a disadvantage and being laughed at?

Lin Su's shops used to be opened in four other countries. Even if the concubines in the palace wanted something, they had to ask others to bring it to them from far away. Now that the shop has opened in Shengjing City, the atmosphere of comparison in the palace has reached a new level.

"The hairpin you've been wearing lately is quite exquisite." The Yuanhe Emperor, newly enthroned, was full of vigor and vitality. He also wore a dragon robe, commanding prestige and influence. Such a young and handsome emperor, regardless of his status, was worthy of the concubines' endless vying for favor just for his appearance. "It also seemed to have a unique fragrance, unlike anything produced in the palace."

The concubine who was praised blushed at first, then stood up and saluted, saying, "This is a new design from the Treasure Pavilion outside the palace. It has a small compartment hidden inside, and a little gadget is hidden inside, but it has a long-lasting fragrance."

"Come here and let me take a look." Emperor Yuanhe waved his hand.

Women dress up to please themselves, and concubines are naturally willing to make up for him in order to please themselves. If they all don't care about their clothes, then he, the emperor, should reflect on himself.

The concubine came forward with a smug smile, took off the hairpin from her head and held it up to the emperor. Emperor Yuanhe put it to his nose and sniffed, "It really is. The fragrance is neither strong nor weak, and it doesn't smell like spices at all."

"The fragrance is different. Sister, have you asked the imperial physician to take a look? These days, who knows if anyone will tamper with anything that has a fragrance." A concubine smiled, holding her nose with a handkerchief.

Emperor Yuanhe looked over, and the concubine holding the hairpin said, "Of course I have seen it. The imperial physician said that it contains only flowers and fragrant woods, and nothing else that would harm the body. If worn for a long time, it can nourish the qi and spirit."

"Such a good thing must be very expensive." Emperor Yuanhe said.

The concubine chuckled and said, "Your Majesty, you are joking. I am of low rank and my monthly allowance is not high. This hairpin is only worth a hundred taels of silver, not as valuable as those in the palace."

Emperor Yuanhe was not responsible for purchasing, but he knew that women needed silks, satins, jewelry, hairpins and rings, which were huge expenses.

Normally, even the hairpins and rings that were casually appreciated might be worth hundreds of taels, and not all of them were exquisite. But now, there are such exquisite things for only a hundred taels, which makes the people in the palace seem useless.

"If the concubines like it, some of this kind of palace purchases can be allocated to the Treasure Pavilion." Emperor Yuanhe said to the empress sitting next to him.

"I saved it." The queen just replied meekly.

After Emperor Yuanhe spoke, the custom of the Treasure Pavilion in the palace became more and more popular. The empresses in the palace wore them, and the ladies of the court naturally followed suit. For a time, the custom of the Treasure Pavilion in Shengjing City became very popular.

Taihe Palace is where the empress dowager lives. Emperor Yuanhe was originally a concubine's son and suffered some hardships before he ascended the throne. The young empress, who was only thirteen or fourteen years old at that time, helped him avoid difficulties several times. She was kind-hearted then, and now that the new emperor has ascended the throne, she is very filial to the empress dowager who just turned sixteen, and no one in the palace dares to bully her.

Naturally, the Taihe Palace would not be left out of the palace's purchases, but the hair crowns and hairpins sent there were all men's styles.

"Empress Dowager, I heard that this is a new hairpin and crown recently released by the Treasure Pavilion. It looks very fashionable. Would you like to try it, Your Majesty?" The aunt came to the window holding a tray.

The window was bright and clean, with a bed. A young man in jade-white expensive clothes was sitting there, quietly propping up his head to look at the gardenias outside. He had a delicate and clever appearance, and his skin seemed to be even whiter than the blooming flowers. In such a prime time, he had a bit of maturity and calmness that did not belong to this age.

Hearing his aunt's words, he whispered, "Leave it there. I'll take a look at it later."

The aunt sighed and smiled, "This hairpin is much more beautiful than that flower."

"No matter how beautiful it is, who would I wear it for now?" The young man curled his lips and turned around.

Because he was young and kind-hearted, he could now be his queen mother in peace. But he was only sixteen years old and could only be imprisoned here for the rest of his life. He could see the end of his life at a glance.

"The Queen Mother is now second only to the emperor and above everyone else. Your Majesty is filial and you really can't make yourself suffer," said the aunt.

Li Yuan smiled softly, and with her jade-white dress, she looked a bit like the gardenia outside the window, transformed into a spirit. "I have never suffered from any hardship. It's just that the cosmetics, hairpins and tiaras that women love are not what I like."

Since this life is determined and cannot be left until death, it is natural to make yourself live a happy and fulfilling life.

He stood up and walked to the table, picked up a hairpin and examined it: "It is really very exquisite."

His nose moved slightly, and a faint fragrance seemed to be present. He placed the hairpin to the tip of his nose, and the fragrance became stronger, but it was not sweet, but refreshing like the smell of grass and trees after rain, which was particularly pleasant.

"How is this made?" Li Yuan was actually interested. "There's no such craft in the palace."

"It's made by the newly commissioned Treasure Pavilion in the palace. It's extremely popular both inside and outside the palace. Each hairpin has a unique fragrance that can't be mixed with spices. Even if they use the juice of fresh flowers to barely create a similar scent, it will dissipate in half a day. Unlike this one, the Treasure Pavilion says the fragrance can last at least a year."

"This is quite novel." Li Yuan put the hairpin in front of his eyes and looked at it. After thinking for a while, he took out a box from the cabinet beside him, took out extremely small tools from it and began to disassemble the hairpin.

His fingers were well-defined and nimble, and in just a cup of tea he had taken the hairpin apart. He examined each part, his eyes truly lighting up: "This hairpin is extremely delicate. Such craftsmanship is beyond the imagination of ordinary people."

"My Queen Mother, this hairpin was given by His Majesty. All the palaces have it and are supposed to be worn during the Mid-Autumn Festival. You have taken it off now. What will we do then?" The aunt was happy to see him happy, but although the emperor seemed filial, he was not a real relative. A wrong move could be detrimental to him. Now that she saw him taking off the hairpin, she was naturally anxious.

"Just put it back together." Li Yuan remembered the order and put the scattered parts back together one by one in a moment, showing it to his aunt. "I could untie the Nine Links at the age of seven, so why should I be afraid of this little hairpin?"

"The Queen Mother has been smart since she was young." His aunt was close to his mother and had watched him grow up. Her smart and handsome little prince should have been the most powerful heir to the throne, but those filthy people found ways to send him here, and he could only be imprisoned for life.
