Chapter 252 Treasure
Imperial study.
Wen Wanqin knelt before the emperor and pleaded guilty.
Yan Shixu smiled and said, "You did a good job, what's your crime?"
The fire that Wen Wanqin started was big and strong enough to eliminate harm for the court and the people.
She completed the original two-year agreement in just a few months.
Now that the overall situation has been decided, it is time for Yan Shixu to fulfill his promise.
He said, "After the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, I will allow you to leave the palace."
Wen Wanqin kowtowed to the ground and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your grace. Long live the Emperor."
Although she suppressed the excitement in her heart, a sob still escaped from her throat.
After so many years, I finally waited for this day.
She wished she could fly out of the palace and be by his side right now.
But after calculating in my mind, it was only about twenty days.
Don't be in a hurry, don't be in a hurry.
Wen Wanqin's matter was settled, and Yan Shixu began to think about the whereabouts of Chen Yian, Cui Miaoer, Yun Zhiyi, and Chang Ying'e.
I thought of several methods, but none of them were easy to implement.
The Chinese New Year is just a few days away, so this matter can only be decided after the New Year.
Tourmaline Palace.
Wen Li'er was choosing a skirt to wear when she went out of the palace tomorrow.
In two days it will be December 29th, and her brother and sister-in-law will be getting married at the end of the year.
The emperor allowed her to go home for three days. She was so excited that she did not sleep all night. After choosing a skirt, she sat cross-legged beside the big golden turtle and looked through the treasures stored inside.
There are several warehouses in the Bixi Palace now.
But her favorite thing was still what she habitually hid in the golden beetle.
She took out the treasures one by one and looked at them.
I want to take this one back, and I want to take that one back too.
Nanny Qin found it funny. Her mistress was already a mother of three children, but she still looked so childish.
Fortunately, the emperor likes this kind of thing, and Nanny Qin was very happy for her master.
Sometimes, people really have to believe in fate.
Seeing that Nanny Qin was staring at her, Wen Li'er finally raised her head.
"Mammy, have all the things in the warehouse been loaded?"
Nanny Qin nodded and said, "Master, don't worry. Everything has been packed. Tomorrow morning, I will have Wan'an and Wanquan move the things onto the carriage."
Wen Li'er felt relieved and continued to distribute the treasures in her golden turtle.
When Yan Shixu came over, he saw that she looked like she was going to empty the house and run away.
He hurried forward and hugged the person.
"What are you doing? I only allowed you to go back for three days, but you act like you want to stay there for three years."
Wen Li'er felt a little embarrassed. She scratched her head and said with a smile: "I just saw that I have too many treasures, so I will give some to my sister-in-law."
Yan Shixu casually opened a brocade box.
It is her turtle-suppressing treasure, the Jiuxiao Huanpei. The main body is a bell carved from mutton-fat white jade. The jade is as smooth as solidified fat, and the bell tongue is inlaid with Western Region Fire Pearls.
The bell body is engraved with cloud patterns and dragons, the red rope is woven with gold threads, and the knot is decorated with a seven-treasure necklace.
Due to its special structure, it resonates with the gemstone. When it is shaken, it sounds like the clear cry of a phoenix, and when listened quietly at night, it seems to have a lingering echo, so it is named "Jiuxiao Huanpei".
This thing was originally given by Yan Shixu to Xiaoxiao to play with, but Wen Lier took a fancy to it and exchanged it with Xiaoxiao for a slingshot.
Yan Shixu teased her at that time, then turned around and tied the Jiuxiao Ring Pendant around her ankle.
Every time they made love, he listened to the clanging sound and enjoyed it.
Thinking of this, he asked meaningfully: "Are you sure you want to give this thing to your sister-in-law? Have you forgotten what we use it for?"
When Wen Li'er heard this, her head buzzed and her little face turned red as if bleeding.
She hurriedly stuffed the Jiuxiao Ring back into the golden turtle.
Yan Shixu chuckled and wanted to look through her other treasures.
Wen Li'er was worried that he would say something embarrassing again, so she hugged his arm tightly and refused to show it to him.
Yan Shixu only felt his arm being stuck there and rubbed against by her, and he instantly became distracted.
She had been so busy for the past ten days that she had no time to think about this matter. Now that she finally had some free time, she had to go back for three days.
A trace of regret arose in his heart.
I originally only wanted to agree to one day, but how come it ended up being three days?
He was unhappy and wanted to get back at her.
Wen Li'er was stuffing gold-sprinkled peach blossom paper into a carved sandalwood box, thinking that her sister-in-law would definitely like it.
Before she could close the box, she was suddenly picked up into the air.
Wen Li'er was caught off guard for a moment and screamed "Ah" in fright, and the box in her hand almost flew out.
"Your Majesty!" She glared at him.
Yan Shixu snorted and laughed: "If you dare to glare at me again, you won't be able to sleep tonight."
Wen Li'er quickly reached out to rub his shoulders.
"Your Majesty, I will be going home tomorrow..."
Yan Shixu nodded: "And then?"
"Then...then can we just cover ourselves with the quilt and chat tonight? Otherwise, I will definitely be too weak tomorrow."
Yan Shixu let out a muffled laugh from his chest and shook his head.
"No, if you have no strength, think about me more. When you think about me, you will have strength."
Wen Lier: "..." Do you think you are a magic medicine?
"You don't believe it?" he asked her with a raised eyebrow.
Wen Li'er shook her head, then nodded like a chick pecking at rice.
"Believe it. I believe everything the emperor says!"
Yan Shixu's face was filled with ill intentions: "Then I will teach you now how to think of me so that you can have the strength."
As he said that, he pushed the man onto the bed.
Wen Lier: "..."
