The scumbag wanted to wipe out the whole family, but rebirth ruined him!

Hearing what Concubine Gao said, Zhao Huayin subconsciously looked at Yan Qi, but Yan Qi was very calm.

He took the box and opened it to show Zhao Huayin.

"This is what my mother always wore, and it's the only thing she left me."

Zhao Huayin was puzzled. Why didn’t Yan Qi bring such an important thing with him?

But Zhao Huayin didn't ask.

Zhao Huayin took the jade pendant. The white jade pendant was carved into a rather strange pattern.

It’s hard to tell what the pattern looks like, it looks like an animal, but also like words.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your reward!"

Zhao Huayin came forward to express her gratitude very obediently.

"This was originally something left behind by Qi'er's mother, so you don't need to thank me.

Today is the first time we meet, and I have prepared a gift for you."

Another maid came over with a brocade box and opened it in front of Zhao Huayin.

"This is the pair of hairpins I wore when I was canonized as a noble concubine. I specially left one for Qi'er and Mu'er's princesses.

It is also a token of my love. Next to it is the jade ruyi, which was my dowry back then. I am giving it to you now as a token of my inheritance.”

Zhao Huayin hurriedly thanked him again.

"You don't have to be so reserved, just raise your head. I don't have a daughter, so if you have time in the future, you can come to Changqiu Palace often."

"Yes, thank you, Your Majesty."

Originally, Zhao Huayin had always strictly followed the palace rules and did not dare to look up at Concubine Gao.

Only at this moment did he dare to look up at Concubine Gao. Concubine Gao was very bright and beautiful, with lively eyes and eyebrows.

The Prince of Jin looks 70% like Concubine Gao, especially his nose and mouth, which are exactly like those carved from the same mold.

Concubine Gao was very kind to Zhao Huayin the whole time. It was unclear whether she was satisfied with Zhao Huayin or was just giving face to Yan Qi.

Zhao Huayin and Yan Qi had lunch in Changqiu Palace before coming out.

When leaving the palace, Zhao Huayin unexpectedly met Princess Jiayi at the palace gate.

"Brother Qin Wang, Sister Zhao!"

"I've met the county lord."

Compared to Princess Jiayi's excitement, Zhao Huayin greeted the audience very calmly.

Princess Jiayi greeted them and took a few steps back. She squinted her eyes, looked at the two of them, and nodded slightly.

"It seems like Sister Zhao is standing next to Brother Qin Wang. The handsome man and beautiful woman are really pleasing to the eyes.

No wonder His Majesty wants to marry you two, you two are simply a perfect match!"

Zhao Huayin knew that Princess Jiayi was bold in her words, and even after hearing these words, her ears still turned red.

Yan Qi didn't react much, but when he heard Princess Jiayi praising Zhao Huayin, his expression softened a little.

"Where are you going, you rash fellow?"

"I'm not being reckless."

Princess Jiayi showed dissatisfaction.

“Although I’m not as dignified as Sister Zhao, I’m clearly walking slowly, okay?

What I came to the palace for is a secret. If I succeed, I will definitely not disappoint Sister Zhao, and I will also be able to teach that stinky girl Jiacheng a lesson! "

After saying this, without waiting for Zhao Huayin and Yan Qi to reply, Princess Jiayi made a face and went in.

Zhao Huayin was puzzled.

"Why does this matter have anything to do with me?"

"Jiayi has a lively and eccentric personality. Don't bother with her."

Yan Qi said with a smile.

The two smiled at each other and left the palace together.

The weather has been getting hotter these days, so Zhao Huayin modified the style of the clothes designed by Princess Jiayi and made them into summer clothes.

Maybe Yunshangfang's reputation has really spread, this batch of summer clothes is in great demand, and some people have even pre-ordered them.

The embroiderers at Yunshangfang are extremely busy, but good business means more money, so despite being busy, everyone is very motivated.

Especially Yunniang, since Zhao Huayin settled her family, she has worked even harder and would rather embroider until night every day.

This happened once when she was embroidering under the lamp and was seen by Zhao Huayin, who said that embroidering under the lamp was too damaging to the eyes, so she could only work until dark from now on.

Only then did Yunniang calm down and stop fighting so hard.

After entering the palace to meet Concubine Gao last time, Yan Qi became busy again.

The State of Qi sent an envoy to visit the State of Wei. Although Emperor Hui's health had almost recovered, he was still bedridden from time to time.

It’s not a particularly serious illness, just a headache and a fever, and sometimes it’s just because I’m in a bad mood.

After receiving the letter from Qi, Emperor Hui stayed in Jiaotai Palace all day long, and the concubines in the harem took turns to go in and take care of him.

So the task of receiving the envoys fell on Yan Qi and King Jin.

Ever since Emperor Hui returned from his injury, many matters have been handled by the Prince of Jin. Now there are calls in the court to appoint the Prince of Jin as the crown prince.

The King of Jin was responsible for communicating with the envoys, and Yan Qi only assisted from the side.

Even so, there are still many things to deal with, and Yan Qi hasn't visited Zhao Huayin for many days.

However, what Zhao Huayin didn't know was that Yan Qi was not entirely busy receiving the envoys.

Also actively preparing to propose marriage.

On the eighth day of July, Yan Qi came to propose marriage.

The things Yan Qi brought filled up an entire courtyard of the Shangshu Mansion.

In one of the boxes, there were different embroideries that Yan Qi had collected from various places during this period, including patterns and illustrations.

I guess it would take a lot of time just to prepare these things. No wonder Yan Qi has been so busy these days.

After the engagement, the Ministry of Rites also selected an auspicious date for the two to get married, which was March of the following year.

Yan Qi felt that it took too long, but Minister Zhao and his wife were satisfied that it was enough time for their daughter to prepare for marriage.

On the second day after the engagement, Princess Jiayi came to see Zhao Huayin.

Zhao Huayin originally thought that Princess Jiayi came this time to talk about the thing she mentioned last time, which was to make the clothing styles of Yunshangfang the most fashionable in the capital.

Who knew that Princess Jiayi came to share new things with Zhao Huayin.

"Sister Zhao, did you know that there is a princess from Qi accompanying the envoy this time?"

Zhao Huayin really didn't know this.

"I heard from the prince that Qi came here to discuss trade. I didn't hear that the princess was accompanying them."

"Of course, the princess was only 'discovered' this morning!"

Princess Jiayi's eyes were filled with an eagerness to share.

"What do you mean by 'discover'? Did the princess appear out of nowhere?"

Zhao Huayin also became interested.

"Sister Zhao, you don't know that this princess of Qi disguised herself as a man and secretly followed the delegation to our Wei State.

I heard that she was the younger sister of the King of Qi, who had been spoiled since she was a child. The King of Qi also loved her very much, but no one knew how this precious princess could walk such a long way among the guards.

When Princess Jiayi said this, her eyes lit up.

"She did what I have always wanted to do. She is truly a role model for our generation. I must find a chance to meet this Princess of Qi someday."

Zhao Huayin shook her head helplessly. Princess Jiayi still had the same unconventional way of thinking.

This was possible only because the princess of Qi was of noble birth and favored by the emperor. If it were anyone else, sneaking into the diplomatic delegation would have been a serious crime.

"The little princess may have come here just for fun. There must be someone in the team cooperating with her, otherwise she wouldn't have been able to hide for so long.

You are not restrained by the King and the Princess on weekdays, and you are free to do whatever you want. Why do you need to sneak out to play?"
