In the servants' memory, their young master was proficient in poetry, literature, tea ceremony, music, chess, calligraphy and painting, but rarely touched a needle. They never expected that the young master's embroidery skills were so good.
If he had worn the wedding dress he embroidered himself when they got married, it would have been even better. It's just a pity... the young master doesn't seem to have that in mind. At that time, he thought it was because the young master hadn't practiced enough and his embroidery skills weren't good enough. It wasn't until now that the young master has become His Highness the Phoenix Lord that he truly realized his embroidery skills.
…
By evening, Wan Ge still hadn't appeared. Ci Xingxuan had someone inquire and found out that Wan Ge was still in the Imperial Study.
So he had his servants prepare something, took the clothes he had made, and went directly to the Imperial Study.
When the steward came to tell Wan Ge that Feng Jun was outside requesting an audience, Wan Ge was still discussing matters with the general.
"Let him in," Wan Ge said slowly, then looked at the general in front of her: "General Chi, please continue."
General Chi glanced at Wan Ge, then continued speaking about what he had just said: "Your Majesty's method is correct, but I don't understand why Your Majesty would set up a defense here."
"General, just do as I say."
General Chi hesitated for a moment before asking, "Does Your Majesty believe that Prince Yan will rebel?"
Wan Ge stood up abruptly. The prince was about to arrive, and it was also almost New Year's Eve. "I don't know if she will rebel against me, but the Southern Xi have been eyeing us for a long time and will definitely make a move. Having the general build defenses is just a precaution, to prevent the people of Yingcheng from suffering."
"Yes," General Chi replied obediently.
Ci Xingxuan had already entered and stood to the side for a while. General Chi only noticed him at this moment. Facing this extremely rare Phoenix Lord, she still bowed respectfully.
"General, you may rise." As Ci Xingxuan finished speaking, he silently stood next to Wan Ge.
Wan Ge looked at the clothes he was holding and asked with a smile, "Ah Xuan's clothes are finished?"
As she spoke, she picked up the clothes. The fabric was already excellent, and after being cut, sewn, and embroidered, the finished product was naturally even more exquisite and beautiful than the original: "Ah Xuan is so skillful."
Ci Xingxuan blushed and replied softly, "Your Majesty flatters me."
"If there's nothing else, General, you may return. I'll leave the rest to you." Wan Ge then said to General Chi, who was standing to the side.
General Chi replied, "Yes, it is indeed something I should do. I will certainly live up to Your Majesty's expectations. I will take my leave now."
After saying that, General Chi left. When he left, the steward gave her an umbrella because it was snowing outside.
Looking at the snow outside the window, Wan Ge said, "This is probably the last snowfall of the year! Has Ah Xuan ever seen the night snow at the palace?"
"Huh?" Ci Xingxuan looked at Wan Ge in front of her, not understanding what she was talking about. "Tonight, are we going to see the snow? Or where are we going to see it?"
Wan Ge reached out and hugged him, whispering in his ear, "Ah Xuan, you'd better keep a close eye on him."
As he finished speaking, he pulled his cloak tighter around himself and used his lightness skill to instantly leave the imperial study.
It eventually landed on the highest pavilion on the back hill of the palace. It was originally built to offer a panoramic view of the entire palace.
Even at night, the bright candlelight illuminated the entire palace. Snowflakes fell on the trees, rooftops, and stone slabs, and the breathtaking scenery also touched the heart of Ci Xingxuan.
