She was the top alchemist from a prominent ancient martial arts family in the 21st century. With one transmigration, she found herself in the body of the discarded eldest daughter of a general'...
Ji Jiuying nodded in satisfaction, "Be sure to handle it gently!"
"Yes, Your Highness."
"Now that the gifts have been delivered, this humble general will return to report to His Majesty," Chen Lin said respectfully.
"Okay, thank you for your hard work, Commander Chen," Ji Jiuying said politely.
After the servants left, Ji Jiuying looked at the boxes scattered on the ground and happily rubbed her hands together.
When Gong Mingyue, who had just arrived, saw her adorable appearance, he shook his head with amusement, thinking, "What a little money-grubber."
At this moment, Ji Jiuying also noticed Gong Mingyue behind her.
"Gong Mingyue, this emperor is too generous, hehe~ I wonder what's in the boxes."
With so many gifts, Ji Jiuying didn't know where to begin. She was also very curious about what the emperor would give her; would it all be jewelry?
"Just open it and you'll see!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Gong Mingyue waved his hand, and all the boxes on the ground opened.
Ji Jiuying was dazzled by the sights: jewelry, ornaments, calligraphy and paintings, porcelain, jade, and some decorative items, such as blue and white porcelain Yuhuchun vases, white jade double-dragon-ear vases, and jade carvings, in various sizes.
There was also a box of luminous pearls. Ji Jiuying counted them and there were ten in total. Luminous pearls are a rare and precious item in this world. Even a single pearl is worth a fortune in Cangyue Kingdom. However, few people would put them up for auction. She first came into contact with them in the cave in the Monster Forest.
Unexpectedly, the emperor was so generous, giving away ten at once. Ji Jiuying touched them with great affection.
Ji Jiuying then discovered that the box in the distance was filled with spiritual herbs!
She carelessly tossed aside the luminous pearl she had just been gently stroking! She quickly went to the box containing the elixirs.
Luminous Pearl: Who will speak up for me?
Golden Silk Grass, Crimson Dragon Vine, Blazing Fire Spirit Flower, Blood Flying Swallow, Golden Bodhi Spirit Fruit... What is this? Black Fiend Lotus? A precious medicine born from absorbing fiendish energy.
The sharp-eyed Ji Jiuying noticed a delicate little brocade box inside the trunk. Curious, she opened the box and found...!
It was... the Resurrection Grass! The legendary herb that could bring the dead back to life and heal the wounded!
Ji Jiuying remembered the Nine-Turn Rejuvenation Pill that Gu Qingfeng wanted, one of the spiritual herbs in it was this Rejuvenation Grass.
Ji Jiuying carefully placed the resurrection grass.
Gong Mingyue was also somewhat surprised to see the Resurrection Grass. He knew that only one Resurrection Grass would grow in each realm, and he did not expect that the Resurrection Grass of this realm would be in the hands of the emperor.
He gave the Resurrection Grass to Xiao Jiu'er, guessing that this world probably didn't recognize it as the legendary Resurrection Grass and only regarded it as an ordinary elixir.
Ji Jiuying counted hundreds of kinds of spiritual herbs and fruits; there were a total of eight boxes!
"What a pity that out of so many spiritual herbs, there's no Xuanbing Flower!"
Ji Jiuying murmured to herself.
Gong Mingyue abruptly closed the distance between them, hugging Ji Jiuying from behind, his warm breath brushing against her ears and neck.
"Little Jiu'er, are you that afraid of my death?"
"What do you think?" Ji Jiuying said irritably. This damned man was asking a question he already knew the answer to.
Upon hearing this, Gong Mingyue leaned down with satisfaction, a faint smile playing on his lips.
"Little Jiu'er, what did you do? Why is the Emperor being so generous to you?" Gong Mingyue was curious about what she had done at Kunning Palace.
"Hehe~ It's nothing, I just helped the Empress detoxify herself." Ji Jiuying said with a smile.
Ji Jiuying waved her hand and put all the boxes on the ground into her spatial storage.
······
The news that the emperor had sent Ji Jiuying four carriages spread throughout the capital city instantly, even though the gifts had been delivered to the Imperial Preceptor's residence.
Jun Luoli suddenly crushed the cup in her hand. "Ji Jiuying, you just wait!"
Consort Liang's eyes were incredibly deep, as if she were pondering something important, going through all the recent events and current affairs in her mind.
Her brows furrowed slightly, and her eyes revealed worry and unease.
"Rong Zhi, go to the Grand Tutor's residence outside the palace. Once you find the Grand Tutor, tell him..." Consort Liang whispered in the ear of her personal maid, Rong Zhi.
"This servant obeys the order."
······
"Your Majesty, there is a situation."
A man in black appeared out of nowhere in the Imperial Study.
"explain."
The emperor continued to review the memorials in his hands.
"Consort Liang's personal maid, Rong Zhi, has left the palace, and Jun Er is still following her."
Emperor Jun Bufan put down the memorial in his hand. Could it really be related to Consort Liang?
"Hmm~ Go down and continue to monitor everything at Huaqing Palace."
"yes."
The man in black vanished from the Imperial Study in an instant, as if his appearance had been an illusion.
······
After leaving the Imperial Preceptor's residence, Ji Jiuying led her people back to Huanan Street to stay. Although staying at the Imperial Preceptor's residence would save a lot of trouble, they couldn't keep sneaking around like this forever.
A group of people arrived in front of the mansion bestowed upon them by the emperor.
The white wall, about two meters high, is covered with glazed tiles. The top of the wall is cut into undulating waves. In the middle, there are two tall vermilion gates with the three large characters "Prince's Mansion" in gold lacquer on a black background on the lintel, which is very imposing.
Ji Jiuying nodded in satisfaction again; the emperor was indeed very fast.
On Huanan Street, there were naturally many onlookers.
"This emperor is too generous. I wonder if the princess's mansion is short of servants."
"Well, it doesn't matter whether I have servants or not, the main thing is that I want to live in the princess's mansion."
"Brother, you can forget about it. Aren't you afraid of scaring the princess?"
"Hahahaha..." This drew laughter from the crowd, and the man's face turned red and white in turns.
"But don't be discouraged, you can let your Yaya go in and work as a maid."
Upon hearing this, the man's eyebrows lifted; this was indeed a good idea.
Although he was a bit ugly, his daughter Ya Ya was not ugly at all, and she was smart and capable. She might actually be able to enter the princess's mansion as a maid.
A figure in the crowd stared intently at Ji Jiuying, his gaze as if coated with poison, emitting a vicious light.
A group of people entered the mansion, which was spacious and magnificent. The lush wintersweet in the main hall stretched over the wall, and the faint fragrance of the flowers wafted out, making people feel intoxicated.
After passing the main hall, a bright and open space suddenly appears before you, with winding corridors and pavilions arranged in a pleasing and orderly manner.
Passing through the covered walkway and the round archway, the main courtyard is on the right, and the courtyards of various sizes are on the left.
Stepping inside, the room is fully furnished with beds, cabinets, and simple, unadorned tables and chairs in a light color scheme. Several calligraphy and paintings hang on the walls, exuding a clean and elegant atmosphere.
The mansion is very clean; it must be regularly cleaned.
Da Niu swallowed hard. He had heard from the villagers that his mother had followed a useless master, but he never expected that his mother had followed such a powerful master.
Haitang exclaimed in surprise, "Master, this mansion is so magnificent!"
"How could something bestowed by the emperor not be magnificent?" Yun Shu said.
"Master is so amazing!" Bai Zhi said admiringly.
The group felt as if they were in a dream. Their master had suddenly become a princess, and they had gone from being the lowest-ranking slaves to serving the princess. This was something they had never dared to imagine before.
