Ah Fu walked in from outside and said respectfully, "Your Majesty, Guard Li has returned."
"Yeah." Song Heng responded, and soon the groom appeared in front of me -
He's back.
But judging by the distance and time, could it be that he just took a walk back?
"Your Majesty," he said in a voice as resounding as a bell, "I have not taken good care of Consort Mu. I apologize."
"You've worked hard today," Song Heng said gently, "Go and have a rest."
Guard Li looked up at me and I winked at him.
"Thank you, Your Majesty." He didn't leave immediately. Instead, he untied a cloth bag from his shoulder. Because the color of the cloth was similar to his dark cloth clothes, I didn't pay much attention to it at first. "This is an embroidery that Consort Mu bought for Your Majesty. Due to urgent time, the embroidery was left in the carriage."
I suddenly remembered that I had placed the embroidery next to the seat before getting off the carriage.

Ah Fu passed the cloth bag to me, obviously wanting me to give it to Song Heng personally.
I was just worried about the time and didn't look at the embroidery much. I just remember that one of the embroidery on the top was about the beautiful peony.
Although it is a floral pattern and tends to be feminine, it is supplied to wealthy families after all. Wu's embroidery skills are really good, with delicate lines and complex but not messy colors. It should be fine to use it as a gift.
I unfolded the cloth bag and handed the several embroidered pieces inside to Song Heng who was standing beside me. He had already turned around and was looking at me leisurely.
I said softly, "Your Majesty, please don't despise me."
He reached out and took it and chuckled, "No."
