His expression softened, and he said, ”Yue'er, you don't need to think too much. You only need to have the same thoughts as your father. You're a member of the Lian family, and your fate is closely related to the Lian family.
”Yes, I understand. Father, don't worry.” Lian Ruyue nodded and said.
”Mm, that's more like it. In the future, we can only wait and slowly plan. Anything is possible.” When Lian Yanqing saw Lian Xiyue's obedient appearance, he knew that he was overthinking things. No matter what, Yue'er was still his daughter. The blood of the Lian Family flowed through her veins; she definitely wouldn't have any other thoughts.
”It's just that my daughter has a request.”
”Go ahead.” Now, Lian Yanqing treated his daughter like a golden phoenix.
”Don't let anyone know about this matter for now, because if the future fails, Yue Er will not need to become a laughingstock.” Lian Ruyue said.
”Yue'er's words are reasonable. I understand that other than your grandmother and mother, no one else will know.” Lian Yanqing nodded.
”Daughter takes her leave.” After Lian Ruyue left Lian Yanqing's study, the smile on her face disappeared. When the sunlight shined on her face, it was warm and harmonious, but her expression was extremely cold.
Even though she was reborn, it was not as if everything was in her grasp. For example, Zhou Chengdi's intention to recruit her into the palace had never occurred to him.
As soon as she returned to the lotus flower courtyard, esteemed wangfei's Senior Servant Li and a servant of the palace carried two large chests to her courtyard.
”Your servant congratulates Eldest Young Miss. The emperor asked esteemed wangfei to give you these larger boxes. This smaller ones were specially made by the empress for you to choose from in the empress's storehouse. They were all treasured by the empress.”
Senior Servant Li made everyone open the chest. With a single glance, she saw that there were all kinds of rare and precious jewelry, gold and silver. Just looking at them was enough to make one dazzle.
As she finished speaking, Li mama secretly watched Lian Xiyue's expression. Imperial Concubine Fu had said that she must scout out out Eldest Young Miss's words and see how she treated this matter.
Lian Ru Yue pretended she didn't see what Li mama was thinking. She looked at the gold and silver jewelry and revealed a faint smile. She instructed Qing Dai, ”Go and get my box.”
”Yes.” Soon enough, she turned and entered the room. She took out a box of silver and handed it to Senior Servant Li.
When Li mama saw the box full of silver, her eyes shone with an unconcealable light. She thought to herself, This young miss's efforts are even greater than esteemed wangfei's. It looks like she has no other intentions.
She hurriedly knelt down and received the box with both hands. With a light touch, a rustling sound came from inside, and when she took a glance, she discovered that there were some jewelry underneath the silver. She was overjoyed, and said, ”This old servant thanks young miss for the gift, congratulations young miss.”
Lian Ruyue bent down and personally lifted Senior Servant Li's hand as if she had taken a fancy to her. ”Senior Servant is an old man by my aunt, esteemed wangfei's side and is also a person Yue'er respects. There are still many things that you'll need Senior Servant's help with in the future. No need to be polite, Senior Servant.”
”If Miss has something to tell me, then just do it. This old servant will do his best.” Li mama hugged the box and spoke with a beaming smile.
Even Ru Yue had a smile on her face. She looked extremely satisfied, but her fists under her sleeves were slowly clenching.
After Senior Servant Li left, the smile on Lian Ruyue's face disappeared. She took out two pieces of jewelry from the box, then closed the box with a clank. She said coldly, ”Move it to the third cabinet inside and lock the door.”
The emperor had sent something in the name of Shufei. It seemed like he really did have this intention.
Heh …
