Rebirth of the Merchant Woman's Revenge
Chapter 192 His Highness’s Gift
"Miss Baizhi, I have some gifts that His Highness prepared for Madam Xie. You can take them over." Xiao Fuzi smiled brightly, completely different from the cunning Xiao Fuzi in the palace.
When Bai Zhi saw his smile, she felt warm in her heart. This little eunuch was much more likable than Chief Sang.
"it is good."
She had come to find Sang Mo to ask him if he knew what the prince had said to her young mistress and why she looked unhappy. Since he was not here, she would bring some gifts back, and the young mistress should be happier.
After all, what woman doesn’t like receiving gifts?
So, when Bai Zhi returned to Xunxiangyuan with bags of gifts, she saw Gu Xunwei sitting in a daze in the house.
See, there is indeed a problem. In the past, the young lady would definitely go into the incense-making room after breakfast, but today she just sat here in a daze.
She quickly interrupted the young lady's daze and placed five or six boxes of large and small packages on the table. She then panted and said, "Young lady, this is a gift from His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."
Gu Xunwei was a little surprised. What did His Highness mean by this? Didn't he look very angry when he left just now? Why did he suddenly remember to give her a gift now?
And they gave so much?
She asked Baizhi and Chenxiang to help her open the boxes one by one. There were three spices of different sizes inside. It seemed that Gu Xunwei had never seen them before.
After smelling the scent, Gu Xunwei instantly perked up. This must be the rare spice that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince found for her from the palace or somewhere else. Moreover, it was a spice that was not common in the Great Chu Kingdom. It was really too rare.
With these, she can develop new fragrances. Gu Xunwei was thinking this secretly when she saw Bai Zhi had opened the last box.
It was a relatively large box, and there definitely wouldn't be any spices inside. After opening it, the three of them were dumbfounded.
Inside was actually a most fashionable headpiece with ruby and kingfisher feathers.
The entire headpiece was shining brightly, and under the sunlight, it almost blinded the three people's eyes.
Gu Xunwei secretly complained in her heart, wondering how His Royal Highness the Crown Prince thought that she would wear this headgear in public. If she really wore it out, she would be laughed to death.
I wonder what this Crown Prince was thinking of that he sent me such a headdress?
Bai Zhi was quick to speak and could not hold back for a moment before she said, "Madam, His Highness suddenly sent you a headdress. Does this mean that he is..."
Interesting to you?
She didn't say the rest of the words, and Chenxiang quickly patted her on the shoulder, reminding her that there were some things she couldn't say.
Gu Xunwei didn't think so. She believed that Li Junhao wanted to express the anger in his tone when he was talking to her just now. He must have felt that his tone was not good after he went back, so he sent these things over.
Moreover, when seeing these spices, Gu Xunwei knew that he definitely did not find them today, but must have searched for a long time before getting them.
Well, you put your heart into it, so I should be more generous with it.
She then said to Bai Zhi, "His Highness usually likes the classic Snow in Spring Letter the most. I have recently improved a more stable and gentle fragrance. I will send him a large box later and prepare a few suitable return gifts."
"Okay, I'll prepare it right away."
"Wait, forget it, I'll just pick it myself..."
Bai Zhi nodded after hearing this, her big eyes rolling around, and I don’t know what she was thinking about.
But because of Chenxiang's reminder, she didn't say the rest.
Instead, he described to Gu Xunwei what he had learned in a vivid manner.
It turned out that something happened to the refugees in the City God Temple in the west of the city last night. Several people were killed, and many were injured. The leader was brutally cut into several pieces. When the Dali Temple brought people there, the scene was already horrific.
However, just when the people from the Dali Temple arrived at the scene and had no time to check the cause of death of those people or find out how many people were still alive, another poisoning case occurred in the inn.
Lord Yan personally led his men over there and discovered that not only the innkeeper and his servants were poisoned, but even the guards from the Dali Temple whom he had sent to take charge of security had been knocked unconscious.
The guests living in the inn were either fainting or dying, and several were missing.
I don’t know whether he was taken away or escaped on his own.
Gu Xunwei frowned after hearing this. How could the security in the capital be like this? So many people were killed and injured in one night. Both cases could be considered serious cases. If the Dali Temple could not handle these things in time, I am afraid that people would soon be disappointed with their incompetence.
The emperor is even more so. If something like this happens and the case is not uncovered in time, he will definitely not let Lord Yan go.
Thinking of this, she could only wish silently that what His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and Yan Nangui were busy with these days was related to these two cases, so that they would not be too passive.
Yan Nangui had the same idea as Gu Xunwei. He also looked constipated. He looked at Li Junhao and finally lost his temper. He said, "Your Highness, I can't listen to you this time. If I let Prince An do what he wants, I don't know how many more people will be killed."
"What are you going to do?" Li Junhao still sat quietly, looking up at Yan Nangui, even with a hint of encouragement in his eyes.
"I have to go to the palace to report the latest situation to the emperor. I also have to tell the emperor about Prince An's actions last night. Please don't stop me. This is my job." Yan Nangui said angrily.
None of them had expected that Prince An would do such a thing of disregarding human life, and that he could be so cruel to those refugees who had no grudges against him, as well as those innocent people in the post house.
This Gu Qiongsi is not a good guy either. This time he will report all the things to the emperor and will definitely give them a fatal blow.
Li Junhao sighed deeply. He was also very sad about what happened last night, but he did not say much. Instead, he asked, "Can you guarantee that these things are related to Prince An? If so, then go ahead. I will not stop you."
"Could it be that based on the content of their conversation overheard by our people last night, we cannot link this matter to Prince An?" Yan Nangui said, and after thinking about it, he felt a little reluctant.
