Chapter 1431: The Crown Prince Consort’s Present
“Family Head Qin, Eldest Young Sir, Second Young Sir, you are from a pill patrician family. Do you know how much this prolongation pill will extend the queen dowager’s lifespan?” The person who spoke was the second old master of the Wu Family. He was practically unable to pry his eyes away from the small porcelain bottle.
Qin Guilu smiled faintly. He stood up in all seriousness and cupped his hands toward the queen dowager, analyzing, “This prolongation pill that the commandery princess purchased is a high-rank mid-grade prolongation pill. Judging from the effects and the queen dowager’s cultivation, consuming this mid-grade prolongation pill will probably… cough, extend her lifespan for at most half a year.”
The hall could not help but burst in an uproar when Qin Guilu finished speaking.
It was already circulating outside that this high-rank mid-grade prolongation pill had been genuinely auctioned off for the astronomical price of 170 thousand high-grade mystic currency!
Wasn’t it a bit of a loss to spend this astronomical price yet only be able to extend the queen dowager’s lifespan for half a year?
Everyone could not help but roast in their mind, yet they continued to speak words of praise on the outside.
Second Qin looked up and swept his glance over the little stoic’s face so swiftly that it was practically undetectable.
However, the little fellow still keenly sensed a hint of the pressure that came from this gaze. When she focused her gaze to locate its origin, she could only see everyone in the main hall talking volubly about that prolongation pill. She could not track down any suspicious gaze.
Feeling that she might have been overthinking it, she lowered her eyes.
Beside her, Crown Prince Mo squeezed her petite hand, and the two whispered into each other’s ears. Seeing their intimate behavior augmented the uncomfortable feeling in Commandery Princess Yi’an’s heart.
Commandery Princess Yi’an’s eyes flickered. Suddenly, she smiled at the queen dowager and suggested softly, “Yi’an heard that the crown prince consort has also prepared a grand gift for Your Majesty the Queen Dowager. Yi’an hopes to be able to widen her horizons.”
The people who were originally talking cheerfully instantly turned silent.
The main hall was so quiet that it was simply terrifying.
Even the king and the queen who were sitting with the queen dowager up on the steps stopped smiling and reflexively looked at their daughter-in-law.
It was over… The king wailed miserably!
This Yi’an couldn’t have taken the wrong medicine, right? Why did she just start targeting the young crown prince consort for no reason?
Just look at today, besides that idiotic chiliarch of the Akedo Tribe, who else would target the crown prince consort without rhyme or reason?
Was she stupid!
Yi’an was shocked to feel the crown prince’s arctic gaze settle on her.
Her heart quivered, and she momentarily stopped talking.
It was simply so silent in the main hall that one could hear a pin drop.
The little stoic suddenly stood up expressionlessly and pattered over to the middle of the main hall. With a flip of her hand, she held a peach the size of a basin in her arms and lifted it up with both hands. “For you, Grandmother.”
This scene looked cute no matter how one looked at it…
Regardless of everyone’s twitching mouths, smiles had surfaced in their eyes.
The old queen dowager was grinning from ear to ear. “Oh my, my good granddaughter-in-law, from where did you get such a big peach of immortality.”
“Good, good, good! Quickly bring it up!” The queen dowager nodded repeatedly as she smiled so widely that her eyes became slits.
The junior manager eunuch promptly switched to a beaming expression as he ran down the steps and took the big peach of immortality from the crown prince consort.
The little stoic took out another one without much of an expression.
The junior manager eunuch ran back and forth twice to bring the peaches of immortality to the queen dowager. While doing so, he took another sniff, drunk on the peaches’ fragrance.
Goodness, what kind of peach was this? It was not only big, but it was also bathed in a spiritual air, its fragrance wafting about.
