Shi Kai didn't expect that he had worked so hard for half a day just to please Zhou Yiyi.
At first, he thought that David and Chu had recently established diplomatic relations, and the King of Chu liked night-shining pearls, so this night-shining pearl was given to the King of Chu as a gift.
Thinking about it, he couldn't help but ask, "Isn't that night-shining pearl a gift to the King of Chu?"
After hearing what Shi Kai said, Ye Xichen did not respond immediately and continued to play with the night pearl in his hand.
After a long while, he said leisurely, "He is worthy of such a fine bead."
Shi Kai looked up at the sky in silence.
After Ye Xichen had admired the night pearl enough, he asked the guards to open all the curtains and door curtains in the room, and the sunlight came in again in an instant.
"Well done. I like this Night Pearl. Let's assign Dongshan to Medicine King Valley."
Shi Kai, who was originally speechless, suddenly smiled. His wife, Wei, was a famous female physician from Yaowang Valley.
Dongshan is Ye Xichen's territory, which is very suitable for growing herbs.
His wife told him several times to ask Ye Xichen to give Dongshan to Yaowang Valley, but Ye Xichen refused every time.
I didn't expect there would be such a pleasant surprise this time. It seems that I have to please Zhou Yiyi more in the future, maybe there will be more pleasant surprises.
Shi Jianqiu was unhappy and sighed, "We are both very busy, but how come he got such a big fortune while I have nothing?
How about I give Miss Zhou a night-shining pearl as well?"
After Shi Jianqiu finished speaking in a sarcastic tone, the three of them laughed instantly. Everyone understood the teasing meaning behind it.
After he finished laughing, Shi Jianqiu restrained his facial expression, became serious, and tentatively brought up the topic that he had mentioned several times before in a low voice.
"When does the prince plan to take back the imperial power?"
Shi Kai nodded beside him, "Even if Your Highness doesn't like that position, he still has to make plans for the future little prince."
Ye Xichen didn't care much at first, but when he heard him mention the word "young prince", his breathing suddenly stopped.
He is still immersed in the fact that he can become a normal man, and has not thought that maybe he can have children.
"Will there be a little prince?" he asked uncertainly.
Shi Kai slapped his thigh and said, "How could she not be pregnant? Maybe she is pregnant now."
Ye Xichen and Shi Jianqiu both looked at him, and Shi Kai was stunned by their gaze.
"Why are you all looking at me? Look at how happy the prince is and how well-fed he is. It seems like both of them have done this more than once.
Isn’t it normal to have children?”
Shi Jianqiu slapped his forehead and said, "Yes, yes. I've been busy investigating the case recently. Now it seems that the prince has not only been proposing marriage these days. Is it tonight..."
He looked at Ye Xichen jokingly.
Ye Xichen sat back in his chair with a frank expression. Although his expression did not change, the complacent look in his eyes had revealed the truth.
Shi Jianqiu and Shi Kai smiled at each other.
When Ye Xichen thought of the child, he immediately thought of Zhou Yiyi. He had never thought that he would have a chance to have children, and he had never thought of becoming a father.
But if the child born is as pretentious and cute as Zhou Yiyi, it would actually be okay.
The more I think about it, the more I feel that what Shi Jianqiu and Shi Kai said is very likely. Maybe the child has already taken root in Zhou Yiyi's belly.
As his imagination ran wild, he became restless and just hoped that it would get dark soon so that he could deliver the night pearl to Zhou Yiyi.
Zhou Yiyi is in the garden right now, feeding the koi with Tian Manting.
Tian Manting's little mouth never stopped talking, constantly wanting to share gossip with her.
Before long, the topic turned to the fact that the pearl hairpins she was wearing were a bit outdated, and even her clothes were no longer the most fashionable.
Zhou Yi was not interested at first, but when he heard about clothes and jewelry, his interest immediately piqued.
She used to like to dress up beautifully no matter what task she was doing, and wear all kinds of jewelry she liked, especially shiny accessories.
She looked down at the clothes on her body and thought about what Joyce Cheng had worn before. It was indeed more fashionable than hers.
He immediately threw all the fish food in his hand into the lake.
"Cousin, stop feeding the fish and let's go shopping. How about buying some jewelry and getting a few more outfits made?"
Tian Manting shared the same interests with her, and her eyes lit up instantly.
"That's great. We haven't gone shopping for several days. I'll cover all the expenses later."
Tian Manting's father was the richest man in Jiangnan, and her mother married into her father's family with a large dowry.
After her parents passed away, they left her a huge fortune, which she could not spend in ten lifetimes.
Although Zhou Yiyi was only a general's daughter, she had been loved by her parents since childhood and her monthly salary was never spent.
The two sisters have always rushed to pay the bill when they went shopping since they were young.
After reporting the shopping trip to Mrs. Zhou, Mrs. Zhou knew that Zhou Yiyi had been depressed recently and didn't want to stay at home with her, so she sent more people to follow them.
Not long after, the two sisters arrived at the jewelry store they often visited before.
When the waiter saw that it was their cousins, he laughed so hard that his eyes could not open. He quickly reported it to the shopkeeper, who rushed to greet them.
"Oh, Miss Zhou, Miss Tian is a rare guest. She hasn't been here for a while. Come on, please go upstairs.
The shop has received a new batch of jewelry, I guarantee you will like it."
Before Zhou Yiyi and Tian Manting could say anything, a harsh voice came from the side.
"Oh, who did I think it was? Isn't this Miss Zhou, the arrogant lady who rejected the Regent's marriage proposal ten times in a row?"
