Chapter 980 Scented Sachet
The reason why Yimei wanted to stay in the palace was to get close to the emperor and get the upper hand.
But now she no longer has that idea about the emperor.
Then she would have no reason to stay in the palace.
Xiao Xixi tried to persuade him to stay.
"It's rare for me to have a guest in my Yunxiu Palace. I really don't want you to leave after just one night. Princess, why don't you stay for two more days?"
Fang Wujiu translated her words into the language of the Thousand Islands.
After listening to this, Yi Mei showed confusion on her pretty little face.
"Aren't you afraid that I will pose a threat to you if I stay in the palace?"
From the very beginning, she clearly showed her intentions towards the emperor, and there must have been people in the palace who spread the rumor that the Thousand Islands wanted to form an alliance with the Great Sheng Dynasty.
Logically speaking, the imperial concubine should be wary of her.
But when the imperial concubine met her yesterday, she showed great kindness to her and took the initiative to invite her to stay as a guest in the palace.
Seeing that she was about to leave today, the imperial concubine even tried sincerely to keep her.
The imperial concubine's series of actions made Yimei feel confused and she couldn't understand it at all.
Xiao Xixi smiled and said, "Don't be afraid."
Yi Mei asked, "Why?"
Xiao Xixi: "Because the emperor and I trust and rely on each other, no one else can interfere."
Yi Mei was a little unconvinced: "You are too confident. Maybe the emperor loves you wholeheartedly now, but people's hearts will always change. What if he changes his mind in the future and falls in love with someone else? It's hard to say for sure."
Xiao Xixi: "I used to think that people's hearts are fickle, but after experiencing some things, I changed my mind. People's hearts may change, but I believe that some people's hearts will never change."
Yi Mei seemed to understand what he said, but not quite.
Her life was too simple and she had too little experience. What the imperial concubine talked about were things she had never encountered before.
She couldn't fully comprehend the meaning of it.
Xiao Xixi smiled and said, "You will definitely meet someone in the future who you are willing to trust regardless of everything."
Yimei understood what the imperial concubine meant by this sentence was that she was blessing her to meet her true love.
She couldn't help but sigh silently again, the imperial concubine is so gentle!
Yi Mei: "Thank you for your kindness, Imperial Concubine, but I still want to leave the palace. I haven't been to Shengjing City yet. It's a rare opportunity for me to come here, so I want to go around and have a look."
Seeing that she was determined to leave, Xiao Xixi stopped trying to persuade her to stay and said,
"You haven't had breakfast yet, have you? Why don't you have breakfast with me before leaving?"
Yi Mei nodded vigorously: "Okay!"
Since their communication still required Fang Wujiu as a translation tool, he was also kept.
The three of them had dinner together.
Xiao Xixi took a sip of the fragrant milk oatmeal porridge.
Yi Mei asked curiously, "I heard that the Imperial Concubine is not from Dasheng?"
Xiao Xixi: "I am the princess of Nanyue Kingdom."
Yi Mei was surprised: "So you are also a princess!"
She was originally very proud of her status as a princess, and even looked down on the imperial concubine at one point, thinking that she was just the emperor's concubine. She didn't expect that the imperial concubine's background was no worse than hers.
This made Yimei feel even more embarrassed and ashamed.
She is really too self-righteous.
Xiao Xixi asked someone to serve a bowl of glutinous rice dumplings to Yimei.
"This is delicious, try it."
Yimei took a bite immediately.
There is no girl who doesn't like sweets, and she is no exception.
Yimei was instantly conquered by the sweet glutinous rice dumplings and couldn't help but drink two more sips.
"This is delicious, I like it!"
Whether it is the glutinous rice dumplings or the milk tea last night, they are foods that are not available in the Thousand Islands. If she had not come here, she would probably never be able to taste such delicacies.
She suddenly felt so fortunate that she could follow the delegation into Beijing and that she had met the Imperial Concubine.
Yi Mei asked as she ate: "Since you are the princess of Nanyue Country, why did you travel thousands of miles to marry to Shengjing? Marrying so far away, don't you miss your hometown and your relatives?"
Xiao Xixi had just finished a bowl of oatmeal porridge and paused when she heard this.
She sighed softly, her tone sounding vicissitudes.
"Everything is determined by fate. There is nothing I can do about it."
Who would have thought that she would travel all the way to Shengjing City just to rely on WiFi to survive.
Once she is away from Luo Qinghan's WiFi hotspot, she will have to disconnect from the Internet.
Once the internet is disconnected, she will have to ascend on the spot.
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but sigh again.
Seeing that she looked depressed, Yi Mei thought that there was some unspeakable hardship, so she did not dare to ask any further and instead asked about some things in Shengjing City.
Xiao Xixi told her everything she knew.
Yimei listened very carefully and wanted to write down everything she said in a small notebook.
After finishing breakfast, the two of them stopped chatting.
Yimei was quite reluctant to leave.
Xiao Xixi took out a small and exquisite sachet: "You are leaving soon, I don't have anything good to give you, so I will give you this sachet. It not only contains incense powder, but also a talisman blessed by a monk, which can drive away evil spirits and ward off disasters for you. I hope you don't mind."
Yimei took the sachet with both hands, looked at it left and right, liked it more and more, and couldn't let it go.
She immediately took off the sachet on her body and hung up the one given by the imperial concubine.
"Thank you, Madam Concubine. This sachet is so pretty!"
Xiao Xixi: "As long as you like it."
Yi Mei said embarrassedly, "You gave me a gift, but I have nothing to give you in return."
Xiao Xixi pointed to the old sachet she had put aside and said, "Just give this to me."
Yi Mei was even more embarrassed: "But this is the sachet I used. It's not good to give away something that has already been used."
Xiao Xixi: "It doesn't matter. I don't care whether the gift is new or old. What matters is the thought. As long as the thought is there, that's enough."
Yi Mei was so moved that tears welled up in her eyes.
The more they got along, the more she felt that the imperial concubine was so gentle!
She picked up the old sachet, brushed off the non-existent dust on it, and handed it over with a blushing face.
"If you don't mind that I used it, then I will give it to you."
She secretly swore that when she returned, she would prepare a big gift for the imperial concubine!
It was not only to return the gift, but also to apologize to the imperial concubine for the previous rudeness.
Xiao Xixi took the sachet with both hands.
The light pink sachet is embroidered with small white gardenias, which looks fresh and cute.
If you look closely, you can find a little bit of thread at the bottom of the sachet.
Yi Mei quickly explained: "It was hooked by that damn fat cat..."
He suddenly stopped talking midway.
She suddenly remembered that the owner of the dead fat cat was the imperial concubine in front of her.
The expression on Yimei's face became extremely embarrassed.
"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to blame you."
