"This is Yufeng." King Yan took a box from his servant and handed it over with a smile: "Last time my uncle saw you, you were still in your infancy, so my uncle didn't know that you like it now.
I haven’t prepared a meeting gift for you, so you can use these common things to buy something you like and come back.”
Buy whatever you like.
If it doesn’t work out, buy some noodles.
Therefore, what he just said was more or less hypocritical.
After all, he was not sure about anything else, but he still knew about his niece's hobby of keeping good looks.
But as an elder, it's not easy to just send him a face.
But once the things are given out, he has no control over what his niece buys.
Princess Yufeng took the heavy box over and looked inside through the hollow carvings. All she saw were round golden beans.
It is indeed vulgar...
But what can't be exchanged for this real worldly thing?
Therefore, there should be no more satisfying meeting gift in the world than this.
Looking at the way this uncle got along with his mother, Princess Yufeng couldn't help but feel that he was a very down-to-earth and interesting person. At this time, she sincerely smiled and thanked him: "Thank you, uncle Yufeng."
Although this was the first time she could remember meeting him, she did like this second uncle more than the other uncles. No wonder Xie Dingning got along best with this brother.
"Why are you so polite to my uncle?" As King Yan spoke, his eyes fell on the girl next to his niece for a moment.
Princess Yufeng said at the right time: "This is Miss Xu from the Zhenguo Duke's Mansion——"
King Yan was slightly surprised: "General Xu's granddaughter?"
Xu Mingyi gave him a slight blessing and said "that's right".
"No wonder." There was a smile in King Yan's eyes: "No wonder when I looked at him just now, there was something vaguely familiar between his features."
It turned out to be Brother Xu's daughter.
He had said before that, based on the appearance of eldest brother Xu, if there were no major mistakes within three generations, the title of the most beautiful in the capital would definitely be inherited by their family.
"Ordinarily, in private, you should call me uncle." King Yan took out a brocade box from his sleeve, handed it over, and said with a smile: "It's our first time meeting, so take it to buy some gadgets."
Xu Mingyi did not refuse, took it with a smile and thanked him: "Thank you, Uncle Shi."
Although the brocade box in my hand is small, it is very heavy. I think it is probably a golden bean.
So, when His Highness the King of Yan went out, did he carry so many golden beans with him? - And they were packed in a brocade box. This was because he planned to take out a brocade box as a greeting gift when he met a junior.
?
This is also a person who practices martial arts.
If it were anyone else, it wouldn't necessarily be such an easy solution.
——This is indeed King Yan’s true intention.
After all, there are many juniors in Beijing, so if you meet someone, it's easy and convenient to hand them a brocade box.
"Aoi."
"The maid is here."
Xu Mingyi said: "Go to the car and get a new insect-proof sachet made yesterday. I want to give it to the prince as a return gift."
Akui was startled for a moment, then responded with a normal expression.
Although as far as she knew, the girl didn't make any sachet at all yesterday, but the girl asked her to get it, then even if she came back with a handful of air, she still had to perform the actual effect...
Or maybe she could consider making one now?
Aoi quickly thought about which method was more feasible.
King Yan laughed when he heard this: "There is no need for any return gift, Miss Xu is too polite."
"Actually, it's not really a return gift, it's just a small thing. It's summer now, so it's good for the prince to take it with him to prevent mosquitoes." Xu Mingyi said with a smile: "This time, my grandfather also prepared a lot of things with him before going out.
.”
King Yan's eyes moved slightly.
Did he think too much? He actually heard a hint from a little girl's words.
Aoi came back soon.
Thank God, there was a brand new sachet in the carriage, otherwise she would have faced a new challenge today.
Seeing that the sachet was made of blue plain cloth without any decorations on it, King Yan smiled and nodded: "In that case, I will accept this return gift."
The moment he took the sachet and held it in his hand, he clearly noticed that there was a hard object in the sachet.
It’s definitely not a herbal thing…
King Yan was doubtful in his heart, but his face didn't show any trace of it.
When their eyes met, the girl in front of her had a generous and decent smile on her face, and there was no sign of anything strange at all.
The reason why Xu Mingyi put the things in the carriage this time was to try his luck. He thought that if he met King Yan, he would give them out easily - especially after King Yan returned to Beijing to see what the future holds.
The possibility of a princess is great.
"Miss Xu, I want it too." Princess Jingrong grabbed Xu Mingyi's sleeve and shook it: "But I don't like the second brother like this. I want to embroider colorful butterflies, is that okay?"
Xu Mingyi smiled and nodded: "Okay, it will be delivered in a few days."
Hearing these words, King Yan laughed heartily, raised his hand and rubbed the eldest princess's head: "Ding Ning really hasn't changed at all..."
From a certain point of view, it is extremely rare and extremely lucky for a person to be able to withstand the flow of time and live at the age of seven forever in this hurried and impatient world.
Looking at King Yan with a thick smile on his face, Xu Mingyi was briefly dazed.
Just now... was she dazzled?
Or is it because she had such a bold guess in her mind before that she had such an "illusion"?
No……
It may not be an illusion.
Looking at the back of King Yan who was pulled into the hall by Princess Jingrong, the suspicion in Xu Mingyi's heart was like waves on the sea, constantly echoing and surging.
King Yan left the eldest princess's mansion half an hour later.
Princess Jingrong was really tired from playing shuttlecock, so after her brother left, she lay on her side on the couch and fell into a daze.
Looking at the half-eaten hawthorn wrapped in a shiny coat on the plate, the eldest princess seemed to be thinking in her unblinking eyes.
In the carriage, King Yan opened the plain blue sachet.
It does contain many dried herbs.
And among these herbs, there is something foreign—
It was a sardonyx bead.
Looking at the familiar bead lying in the palm of his hand, King Yan was stunned and smiled silently.
It turned out to be a general.
The general still remembers it.
…
Shortly after King Yan left, Xu Mingyi did not stay in the eldest princess's residence for a long time.
After saying goodbye to his friends, Xu Mingyi left the eldest princess's mansion, got on the carriage, and woke up the big bird sleeping on the cushion in the carriage.
"Tianmu, help me do something -"
As soon as Da Niao opened his eyes, he heard the girl explain: "Go to Wu Chao and tell him that I will wait for him at Xuesheng Tea House."
