The Second Prince's Residence.
"Your Highness, today when I went out on my inspection tour, I saw a vendor selling these exquisite floral ornaments. I thought that Your Highness's skin is as white as snow, and you would surely look extremely beautiful wearing these ornaments." As he spoke, he placed the ornament in his hand into Honeysuckle's hand.
She glanced at it and thought the workmanship was quite exquisite, but the materials were extremely poor. Thinking about it, she casually asked, "It's quite exquisite. How much silver did it cost?"
Without even thinking, Mu Anyu blurted out, "Ten taels!"
She was shocked and immediately stood up: "What? Ten taels? How could something like this be worth ten taels of silver?"
Honeysuckle looked at him with disbelief.
A flicker of panic crossed Mu Anyu's eyes, which was quickly replaced by an innocent expression: "Ah? I have never bought these little things for women. The merchant probably thought I was stupid, so he deliberately tricked me." As he spoke, Mu Anyu lowered his head with great guilt.
Looking at Mu Anyu's appearance, she couldn't bear it. It made sense; he was a prince who never cared about the hardships of ordinary people, and it was his first time buying something for a girl, so it was normal for him to be cheated.
"It's okay, it's okay. Although it was expensive, I really like it. Money isn't important; liking it is the most important thing, isn't it?"
Honeysuckle looked at him with a smile, then placed the flower hairpin in his hand and said in a soft voice, "Please put it on for me."
Upon hearing this, Mu Anyu slowly raised his head, looking at Jin Yinhua with innocent eyes, and asked weakly, "Are you really not angry with me?"
She smiled and shook her head: "I'm not angry."
Mu Anyu slowly smiled, took her hand and said, "Then, Your Highness, please sit down, and I will help you put it on."
"good."
In the bronze mirror, the woman sat gracefully in front, smiling broadly, while the man stood behind her, carefully placing a floral hair ornament into her hair. Perhaps because it was the first time he had helped a woman with her makeup, his hands were trembling slightly.
"Don't be nervous, it's okay if you don't wear it properly, as long as I like it."
Seeing how nervous he was, Jin Yinhua found it incredibly cute. She wanted to laugh, but she was also afraid that if she laughed, he would wear it even worse.
Mu Anyu was also surprised at his own lack of ambition, and chuckled lightly: "Princess, please don't look down on me for being so stupid."
She still smiled and shook her head: "No way, you're the best to me in this palace."
The obvious happiness around her was cloyingly sweet. Whenever the maidservants passed by, they would lower their heads and jog a few steps, afraid of seeing something they shouldn't. Of all the girls sent for political marriages, it seemed that only she was doing relatively well.
"Your Highness, the Crown Prince has arrived," a servant announced.
Looking at the crooked floral decorations in the mirror, Jin Yinhua patted his hand and said, "Go quickly, don't keep the Crown Prince waiting."
Looking at the beautiful girl in the bronze mirror, Mu Anyu sighed and said, "It's my fault for being clumsy and not putting this flower hairpin on properly. The princess is extremely beautiful, but I've ruined almost all of her beauty."
"Alright, alright, I like it even like this. Go on, I've prepared the food and am waiting for you." Prince Jin Yinhua was getting impatient and scolded him, so she urged him on.
"good."
Mu Anyu bent down and gently kissed her forehead before turning to leave.
Honeysuckle gently touched her forehead, her cheeks flushing red. She peeked at his departing figure, unable to suppress a smile, and murmured softly, "Yulang, my Yulang."
main hall.
"Greetings, Your Highness the Crown Prince."
The Crown Prince waved his hand: "There's no need for such formalities between us."
"Yes, Your Highness, please sit." After saying this, he turned his head and said, "You may all leave. No one is allowed to enter without my permission."
With a click, the door closed.
The Crown Prince looked at Mu Anyu and asked, "How is it? Have you received the silver?"
Mu Anyu smiled smugly and leaned back lazily in his chair, saying, "That stupid woman in Youzhou is very easy to fool. Even if I were to take her life now, she would obediently hand it over. Your Highness, rest assured, the silver will be in our hands within half a month."
