"Mother, can you see this clearly?" the Empress asked cautiously from the side.

"Yes, I can see it, hahaha."

Will the young princess always be able to see clearly through glass?

The Empress Dowager had many thoughts on her mind when she asked this question, wondering whether it was a one-time use item or something that could be used for a long time.

Su Muyao naturally noticed the Empress Dowager's worries. "Your Majesty, as long as it doesn't break, it can be used indefinitely."

Upon hearing this, he quickly took off his glasses and handed them to the head maid beside him.

"Zizhu, quickly put this away for me."

After seeing the maid carefully put the glasses away, he turned to look at Su Muyao.

“She looks like she’s destined for good fortune. Bring those agate pieces that were just presented as tribute to the young princess.”

The other ministers' wives were stunned upon hearing this, as their husbands had told them that the agate was a gift from the Northern Yan Kingdom in their quest for peace.

Unexpectedly, the Empress Dowager bestowed upon him a princess.

Suddenly remembering what the Empress Dowager had said about being able to see clearly, several people in the crowd became very excited.

Their fathers or fathers-in-law also had the same symptoms as the Empress Dowager.

They all believed that the damage was due to excessive eye strain in old age, and therefore there was no way it could ever recover.

But now they're being told that they can actually see clearly through this glass.

Everyone's attention was focused on Su Muyao. They thought that after the flower viewing party, they should spend more time with this little girl and hopefully buy her another pair of glasses!

The Empress Dowager has received the glasses and now wants to go back and test whether she can see the words in the book clearly.

I gave these people a perfunctory response and then left in a hurry.

The Empress Dowager's departure put everyone at ease.

After the Empress Dowager left, the Empress came to Su Muyao and said, "Yuan'er was right about you."

Su Muyao smiled sweetly, "This humble woman and His Highness the Crown Prince are good friends."

After listening, the Empress gave Su Shuyao a deep look, lamenting that her affections were unrequited.

...

The flower-viewing banquet ended quickly, and after everyone left, Su Muyao was kept behind by the Empress for a talk.

After exchanging pleasantries, Su Muyao asked about Long Yuan's recent situation, who was far away on the frontier.

"Alas, the enemy is cunning and never attacks head-on; they always launch surprise attacks at night."

Before Longyuan arrived, the area was already on the verge of collapse. Now, even with all the supplies they brought, they still have too few troops to fight.

Su Muyao suddenly remembered the poison gas bombs in her space, which she had stockpiled while she was abroad.

"Your Majesty, I have something I can use."

"Oh, what is it?"

Su Muyao had already thought it through the moment she spoke. Now that she was a member of the Great Dynasty, she should think about the Great Dynasty's interests.

Behind her were her parents, relatives, friends, and family, so she couldn't do it; she clearly had a way to repel the enemy and yet she ignored it.

The claims that this disrupted dynasties and that it was an era of cold weapons, where firearms shouldn't have been brought out, are all utter nonsense.

If the country falls, will there still be a home?

After Su Muyao explained the purpose of the poison gas bomb to the Empress, the beautiful woman in front of her rested her chin on her hand and thought for a while before replying, "I understand what you said, but this thing is too important for me to decide. I need to report it to the Emperor."

Su Muyao naturally knew that this item would definitely need the emperor's approval before it could be sent to the frontier.

"That thing is still at home. Just send someone over to let me know whenever you need it."

The Empress nodded, then suddenly changed the subject, "Mu Yao, what do you think of the Crown Prince?"

Su Muyao didn't quite understand why the topic suddenly shifted to Long Yuan.

"His Highness the Crown Prince is certainly good; his young age and willingness to fight on the battlefield make him a role model for us all."

Hearing the baby's soft, sweet voice, I finally gave up! After all, he's still just a little kid and doesn't have any selfish thoughts.

If other officials' daughters were to become close to the Crown Prince…

"Mu Yao, are you tired? You should go back and rest. I will talk to the Emperor about that poison gas bomb you mentioned. If needed, I will send someone to fetch you."

Su Muyao nodded.

After Su Muyao left the palace, she discovered that there were still several carriages parked at the palace gate, clearly carrying the female relatives of various ministers.

As soon as the young princess came out, several women immediately surrounded her.

"This humble woman pays her respects to the young princess."

The men all had husbands of lower social standing, so they naturally had to bow to the young princess.

"Rise quickly! I wonder what brings you all waiting for me at the palace gate!"

Seeing that the young princess did not look down on them, one of them quickly asked, "I wonder if the young princess has any more of those glass glasses that she took out today? It's just that someone in my family has an eye ailment like the Empress Dowager, so I took the liberty of asking."

I originally thought these people were staying to build a relationship with me, but it turns out it was about the glasses.

"This thing is hard to come by, and it takes time to make, so..."

Upon hearing this, Madam Song immediately became nervous. "Young Princess, I know that such treasures are precious. I wonder if the Young Princess could make one that I would be willing to pay a high price for?"

As he spoke, he took out three hundred taels of silver notes from his pocket.

This action caused the expressions of the people around to change, because they were all from small households and could not possibly come up with so much silver.

That Madam Song is really something; her own family are merchants, so naturally she's not short of money.

This completely extinguished their desire to buy glasses.

Su Muyao accepted the three hundred taels and nodded. "I will have someone come to my residence tomorrow to collect it."

"This humble woman thanks the young princess in advance."

As Su Muyao boarded the carriage and left, she heard several women surrounding Madam Song, chattering and criticizing her.

Su Muyao snorted coldly, "Do you really think you can get these treasures from me for free without paying a price? What wishful thinking."

"Yes, Princess, such a thing is priceless. They won't get a chance to take advantage of it."

Before Su Muyao had even returned to the manor, another story about the young princess had been added, and now the reputation of the Princess of Chang'an had spread throughout the capital.

Princess's Mansion

"Yuanyuan, you actually thought of coming to see me. You left without saying goodbye back then, what are you doing here now?"

Su Muyao had just returned when she saw the young girl who had come to visit the mansion.

Upon closer inspection, wasn't this the daughter of the former prefect?

The thought that her father, who had been promoted to the prefect of Liuzhou, left without even saying goodbye...

Yuanyuan is still the friend I considered back then, and the first friend I made in this world.

"Yaoyao, it's not that I didn't want to tell you. I was taking a nap that day, and when I woke up, I was already on my way to Liuzhou."

Su Muyao remained silent and ignored her, which made Yuanyuan, who was standing to the side, very anxious.

"You believe me, I swear, I absolutely did not mean to not say goodbye."
