Chapter 894: Straight to the Point
"Prince Jun?"
The palace servants who were guarding these things hurriedly saluted when they saw Xiao Lanyuan coming in.
At the same time, they also felt a little strange. What was Prince Jun doing here?
"Um."
Xiao Lanyuan responded and walked towards those fine jade utensils.
"Open the lid and let me see."
"Yes." Although the palace servant felt strange, she did not dare to refuse.
After opening all six lids, Xiao Lanyuan glanced around and saw the purple jade dressing box. He took the lid and closed it again, then picked it up and left.
"Prince Jun!"
The palace maids were shocked and rushed to stop them.
"Um?"
"Prince Jun, this, this, does the emperor want you to take this to the palace?" The palace servant didn't dare to look up at him, but just asked stutteringly.
"No."
"Then where is the prince going to take this?" Everyone in the palace was about to cry.
"Return to the palace."
"Ah?" The palace servants were even more panicked, "Your Highness, this, this was sent to the palace by the envoy of the Min Kingdom—"
"Don't you know? I was the one who brought the envoys to the capital, so it's not too much for me to choose one thing as a reward. If the emperor asks, just tell him directly that I like this thing and will take it away."
As Xiao Lanyuan spoke, he walked past the palace maid and left in a leisurely manner.
It was such a big box and such a heavy jade dressing box, but he held them in his hands as if they had no weight and walked very fast.
"My Lord, My Lord——"
The palace servant chased for a few steps, but seeing that there was no other way, he had to stop.
Who in Manzhao Kingdom can be as arrogant as Prince Jun?
The emperor certainly can't blame them.
After all the ministers had left, Concubine Le finally got her chance.
She quickly followed the emperor to the side hall and said, "Your Majesty, I like that dressing box. It is something used by women anyway. Why don't you give it to me? If you leave it with me, Your Majesty can see it anytime he wants."
Concubine Le really wanted that dressing box.
"You like it?" The emperor was a little unhappy.
The things had been delivered and hadn't even landed in his warehouse, and he hadn't even touched them, but Concubine Le came to ask for them.
"emperor--"
Concubine Le hugged his arm and shook it coquettishly.
"You just accepted two beauties. I feel jealous."
She knew that showing a little jealousy would make the emperor very happy, because it showed that he was charming and the emperor was happy to be jealous of him.
Of course, this requires a good sense of proportion.
Sure enough, when the emperor heard her say this, he laughed twice.
"I am not the kind of tyrant who is obsessed with beauty. My beloved concubine should also know that I kept them because of their identities as female doctors. I also want to know the level of medical skills that the female doctors of Min Kingdom have learned."
"But they will serve the emperor in the end."
"Alright, alright. My beloved concubine is the most important to me. How can those two foreign female doctors compare to my beloved concubine?"
"Then Your Majesty, please give me the box as a reward. Having a beautiful thing for me to admire can help distract me from thinking about Your Majesty and the two female doctors all the time."
Concubine Le begged again and again, trying her best, and finally got the emperor's nod.
"Okay, okay, I really can't do anything to you, so I will give you the dressing box as a reward."
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Concubine Le was overjoyed. She stood on tiptoe and kissed the emperor on his face which was covered with age spots.
She quickly asked two eunuchs to move the dressing box.
"You two, move that purple jewelry box to my bedroom." Concubine Le pointed with her orchid finger.
The two palace servants fell to their knees.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, that dressing box was taken away by Prince Jun!"
The emperor and Concubine Le were shocked.
"What?"
"What did you say?"
The two of them drank in unison.
Xiao Lanyuan brought the dressing box back to the palace and placed it next to the dressing table.
Wait for Zhaoning to come back and give her a surprise.
As soon as he saw this thing, he felt that it was suitable for Zhaoning.
It seems that he hasn't given her many things yet. If he finds something suitable, he should bring it home to her, right?
After thinking about it, Xiao Lanyuan wrote a letter to Fu Zhaoning, telling him about the envoys from the Min Kingdom and mentioning the things they had sent.
The letter also asked Fu Zhaoning whether she would plant the ginseng fruit tree and whether she wanted to.
Qing Yi was grinding ink for him. He took a look and happened to see this sentence. He was immediately shocked.
He couldn't help but ask, "Prince, if the princess wants that ginseng fruit tree, can you really bring it back to the palace?"
It goes without saying that the fruit tree must be the emperor's treasure. The emperor will definitely plant it under his nose. How could he give it to the prince?
"As long as Ningning wants it, I will get it for her."
Xiao Lanyuan said this lightly.
Qing Yi was shocked.
Is the prince going to pamper the princess to the sky?
"Your Majesty, do you want to go to the banquet to welcome the envoy?"
Xiao Lanyuan shook his head, "No."
The fact that he could go out of the city to welcome them was already enough to give them face. He was not the emperor, so why did he do so many things?
So you don’t have to see the emperor’s stingy and opportunistic face.
The emperor is naive. Min Guo has sent so many things, and what he is asking for must not be a small matter. Yet the emperor wants to accept all of them and then agree to nothing.
Min Guo's style has always been not so saintly.
"Let Sixteen keep an eye on Yuan Yi." Xiao Lanyuan suddenly thought of this and gave an order.
Qing Yi was a little confused, "Is there something wrong with Yuan Yi?"
“It’s just a feeling.”
Keep an eye on it, just in case.
Three days had passed when the letter reached Fu Zhaoning.
She received the letter in the morning, but she was so busy that she didn't even have time to sit down and drink some water. Several patients suddenly had convulsions and she was rescuing them, so she had no time to read the letter.
She took out the letter only after she finished her work in the evening.
