Chapter 855: Just what has he done? (2/2)

“Yes!” Zhao mama loved things like this the most.

Since the inside of the tent was too narrow, Zhao mama could only move everything outside the inner partition to organize. The shoes were all set on the ground and the clothes hung up. Soon enough, the outer room was half taken up by the new wardrobe items. Han Yunxi tried on different clothes inside and found that all of them fit very well. She walked out and asked offhandedly, “Zhao mama, did you tell His Highness my measurements?”

Zhao mama examined her before breaking out into compliments. “His Highness has good eyes. The clothes are beautiful, making the person even lovelier!”

“Did you tell His Highness my measurements?” Han Yunxi asked again.

“I didn’t, ah. His Highness must have measured you himself. What, did the princess not know?” Zhao mama chuckled.

“Did he measure me while we were together? Where did he get the measuring tape?” Han Yunxi asked seriously. From the moment she was rescued until today, his time with her was limited. Even if he did it was she was asleep, he would have needed some type of tool. Something that fit this well was possible to estimate by eye along. You needed rulers or the like to make it accurate.

“That’s right, ah. Why would a military camp have things like measuring tapes?” Zhao mama smiled craftily. “Princess, this old servant has no methods to find you a tape measure. But I can teach you a way to get the right measurements without erring by a hair’s breadth!”

Han Yunxi looked at herself in the mirror, loving the pinkish-purple silk skirt on her form. “What kind of method?” she tossed out.

Zhao mama immediately scooted closer and stretched out her thumb and index finger. “See, this is one zha (拃), or handspan.” As she spoke, she began to demonstrate on Han Yunxi’s body. “Princess, His Highness must have measured you this way. If you don’t understand it, have him teach you. His Highness will definitely be happy to know that you want to make him clothes.”

When did Long Feiye measure me like this? Was it when I was unconscious in the hot springs?

When she imagined Long Feiye carrying her out of the springs, then wiping her body dry and dressing her again, she couldn’t go on. Imagining him measuring her entire body with his fingers was also impossible. That fellow! Did he dress me first and then measure, or measure me first and then dress me? I had no idea!

If she hadn’t brought up the measurements with Zhao mama, she would have been ignorant that this happened at all. That bastard Long Feiye, what else did he do while I was asleep?

Thinking up to here, Han Yunxi’s face begin to burn. Even the ever vigilant Zhao mama didn’t notice her change in expression, because she had taken out a long brocade box from the very bottom of a chest.

“Princess, what is this?” Zhao mama asked doubtfully.

Han Yunxi recognized the brocade box at first sight. It was the same as the one where Long Feiye had stored her torn purple muslin robe. That box and that robe were still in Ning Cheng’s camp, but she had kept his nine letters on her person.

Don’t tell me, Long Feiye gave me a special gift for Qiqiao as well?

Zhao mama didn’t dare to open it casually, so she quickly presented the box to Han Yunxi, who carefully lifted the lid. Inside she saw a pair of extremely exquisite earrings!

They were pinkish purple in hue and shaped like phoenix wings with tassels at the end. The feathers of each bird were covered in fine, delicated crystals that shimmered with a pinkish-purple light. At a glance, these earrings resembled angel wings, but a closer examination revealed that the design was an exact replica of the winged birthmark on her back.

Han Yunxi was too delighted with the gift. She carefully studied them and suddenly discovered that the backs of the wings were engraved with a single character: Ye (夜).

Long Feiye, for every world and lifetime, Han Yunxi will never let you down!

She was still wrapped up in the feelings brought from the phoenix wing earrings when Zhao mama fiddled with the box and took out a wine-red dudou from its bottom layer.

“Princess, His Highness also...gifted you this,” Zhao mama said before she couldn’t help smiling. “Princess, these are underclothes.”

Han Yunxi looked over and saw that the dudou was of very conservative style that covered her up completely. It was similar to the tank tops of modern day, so it really could count as underclothes. It was impossible to be embarrassed at something like this. Instead, she ended up laughing out loud. He gave me something like this but still hid it in the bottom layer of the brocade box!

If she hadn’t experienced his wickedness firsthand, she would definitely think he was someone who didn’t know anything about amorous love. How in the world did he buy something like this from the shops?

Zhao mama only sighed internally a hundred times before she spoke. “Princess, try it on. Don’t let His Highness’s efforts be in vain.”
