Thinking of this, her eyebrows curved into a smile, and the two dimples on her cheeks deepened even more.

He couldn't help but urge the young eunuchs on.

"hurry up".

He wanted to see Qing-gege as soon as possible!

Qu Shaoyu had just stepped off the sedan chair, but hadn't even taken a step yet.

A female official and several others knelt down and blocked their way.

"This servant greets Your Majesty."

Qu Shaoyu's expression was displeased, and he spoke coldly.

"What is it?"

The female official lowered her head.

"This servant is from the Clothing Department, and the wedding dress is already made."

Upon hearing this, Qu Shaoyu's eyes lit up.

"Hmm, not bad, Little Yang, reward him."

Standing behind him, Xiao Yangzi quickly replied, "Yes."

When Qu Shaoyu returned to his palace, he looked up and saw Ning Qing reclining on a soft couch by the window.

He looked languid and composed, and when he turned around and saw himself, the corners of his lips curled up slightly.

"Xiaoyu, you're back?"

Qu Shaoyu smiled and responded.

"Brother Qing, I'm back."

He turned around and took the wooden box from Xiao Yangzi's hands.

He waved him away.

Holding the wooden box in both hands, he walked over and sat down next to Ning Qing.

He stared intently at Ning Qing, his heart pounding with unease.

"Brother Qing, you promised me that you would accept any gift I give you."

Ning Qing nodded.

"Um".

My gaze fell on the wooden box in his hand.

Raise an eyebrow.

"What? What gift are you planning to give me today?"

Qu Shaoyu's eyes flickered, and he dared not look Ning Qing in the eye.

"Whatever I give you, you must accept it today."

As he spoke, he placed the wooden box in his hand into Ning Qing's hands.

Ning Qing looked at the wooden box that had been forcibly shoved into her hand, a hint of a smile appearing in her eyes.

"What, are you so afraid I won't accept this gift?"

"It's clear that the contents of this wooden box... are not very good."

Qu Shaoyu said, "Regardless of what's in the wooden box, you've already accepted it, so you can't refuse it."

Ning Qing nodded, feigning seriousness.

"We've already accepted the gifts, so there's no reason to return them."

"Then I'll take a look and see what kind of gift is inside."

As he spoke, his fingertips touched the lid of the wooden box.

Out of the corner of my eye, I caught a glimpse of a hint of nervousness in Qu Shaoyu's expression.

This further piqued Ning Qing's curiosity.

The lid was opened, revealing a sea of ​​red, a deep red tinged with gold.

Ning Qing picked it up and saw that it was a phoenix with outstretched wings embroidered in gold thread.

It's truly beautiful! But... Ning Qing looked at it from left to right, and it looked exactly like a wedding dress!

It's a woman's wedding dress!

Ning Qing turned her head to look at Qu Shaoyu, who was sitting to the side.

"Shouldn't you explain?"

Qu Shaoyu was panicking inside, but he forced himself to remain calm on the surface.

"You said you would accept whatever I give you, and... you would even wear it."

Ning Qing shook her head.

"No, I did promise to accept it, but I never said I would wear it."

Qu Shaoyu's lips parted slightly, and he was speechless for a moment.

Ning Qing leaned closer to him and spoke in a low voice.

"Do you really want me to wear it?"

Qu Shaoyu nodded slowly.

"think".

Ning Qing curled her lips into a smile.

"It's not impossible for me to wear it."

Qu Shaoyu's eyes widened, filled with shock and surprise.

Although he had people prepare the phoenix robe and wedding gown, he wasn't very confident that he could get his brother Qing to wear them.

The surprise came so fast and so suddenly that he was somewhat...unable to believe it.

Realizing what was happening, he exclaimed in surprise.

"Brother Qing, are you really going to agree to wear the phoenix robe and wedding gown for me?"
