CHAPTER 219 (1): WHAT I WANT IS
Translation: Cosy
Her question was within reason, but the situation made it dangerous to answer.
Yun Ruofeng relaxed his brows as the corners of his lips slightly raised, his gentle disposition overflowing. "Feel free to speak your mind. As long as it's within the ability of this Prince, I will bestow it."
While the way things were going forced Yun Ruofeng to accept whatever Su Xi-er’s request was, he was also curious as to what she would ask for.
Instantly, everyone turned their attention onto Su Xi-er.
A short mont later, Su Xi-er’s lips parted as she spoke in a lodious voice. "What this servant wants is definitely within Prince Yun's ability. Even as a maidservant, I have heard the stories of Nanzhao’s Eldest Imperial Princess. No matter how small the detail, this servant would listen as long as the story was related to her."
Saying the five words, ‘Nanzhao's previous Eldest Imperial Princess’, was like pouring a basin of water into a wok of hot oil - causing the commotion to splatter uncontrollably!
In Nanzhao, Ning Rulan was a taboo. Even ntioning her na too much could lead to death. And yet, the one who had brought it up this ti around was Prince Hao’s maidservant. Would Nanzhao be forced to hold their tongues?
The crowd wore different expressions on their faces, while Pei Qianhao’s own eyes were narrowed with puzzlent. Why did she ntion Ning Rulan? She even ntioned her in our previous conversation.
He couldn't understand. Why is she so concerned about Nanzhao’s previous Eldest Imperial Princess as a re maidservant of the Palace Side Quarters?
Hua Zirong's disinterested expression changed as well. Ning Rulan was a woman that he admired, not just because others did, but because he sincerely appreciated her countless talents and statecraft.
The temperature on the viewing platform had dropped, leaving behind an awkward silence. Of course, the drama-loving Chu Linglong was all too happy. Su Xi-er sure knows how to have fun. Not bad. I shall not hold it against her for saying that I look like a woman just now.
A cold glimr flickered across Yun Ruofeng’s eyes as he asked with a smile, "Miss Xi-er, Why do you have to bring up the previous Eldest Imperial Princess when you are asking this Prince for sothing? Could it be that the item you want has sothing to do with the previous Eldest Imperial Princess? If that's the case, it is beyond this Prince's ability."
"This servant heard that the previous Eldest Imperial Princess had a jade green hair ornant with dangling jade pendants. She is the person this servant admires the most. Prince Yun, if you have this hair ornant, could you kindly bestow it to this servant?" Su Xi-er's tone was calm, but every word was like a huge boulder crushing on Yun Ruofeng's chest.
Ning Lianchen was feeling a similar emotion. I know exactly what hair ornant she’s talking about. It was Imperial Elder Sister’s favourite, as well as Empress Mother’s favourite before her. Before Empress Mother left us, she passed on the hair ornant to Imperial Sister.
But after Imperial Elder Sister's death, Ning Anlian snatched the hair ornant away. Ning Anlian threw away all of Imperial Sister's things, except for the jade green dangling ornant.
Ning Anlian seems to like that dangling ornant very much, and will even wear it from ti to ti.
Ning Lianchen felt like snatching the hair ornant back every ti he saw Ning Anlian wearing it, but he didn’t have the power to do so. Yun Ruofeng allowed her to wear it, and even told him that as the emperor of a nation, he shouldn't be paying so much attention to a woman's accessory.
But now, Su Xi-er had requested that jade green dangling ornant. Ning Lianchen turned towards Yun Ruofeng imdiately. He had to use this opportunity to push for Ning Anlian to give it up. That item was Imperial Elder Sister’s favourite, and can’t be allowed to remain in Ning Anlian’s hands!
