Chapter 219.1: what i want is

Although the performance on the floating platform continued along with the sound of the silk bamboo music, the atmosphere on the observation deck was terrifyingly silent. Everyones attention was concentrated on Yun Ruofeng, wondering if he would give Prince Haos maidservant whatever she wanted.

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 its within the ability of this Prince, I will bestow it.

While the way things were going forced Yun Ruofeng to accept whatever Su Xi-ers request was, he was also curious as to what she would ask for.

Instantly, everyone turned their attention onto Su Xi-er.

A short moment later, Su Xi-ers lips parted as she spoke in a melodious voice. What this servant wants is definitely within Prince Yuns ability. Even as a maidservant, I have heard the stories of Nanzhaos 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, Nanzhaos 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 mentioning her name too much could lead to death. And yet, the one who had brought it up this time around was Prince Haos maidservant. Would Nanzhao be forced to hold their tongues?

The crowd wore different expressions on their faces, while Pei Qianhaos own eyes were narrowed with puzzlement.

Why did she mention Ning Rulan? She even mentioned her in our previous conversation.

He couldnt understand.

Why is she so concerned about Nanzhaos previous Eldest Imperial Princess as a mere maidservant of the Palace Side Quarters?

Hua Zirongs 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 glimmer flickered across Yun Ruofengs 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 something? Could it be that the item you want has something to do with the previous Eldest Imperial Princess? If thats the case, it is beyond this Princes ability.

This servant heard that the previous Eldest Imperial Princess had a jade green hair ornament with dangling jade pendants. She is the person this servant admires the most. Prince Yun, if you have this hair ornament, could you kindly bestow it to this servant? Su Xi-ers tone was calm, but every word was like a huge boulder crus.h.i.+ng on Yun Ruofengs chest.

Ning Lianchen was feeling a similar emotion.

I know exactly what hair ornament shes talking about. It was Imperial Elder Sisters favourite, as well as Empress Mothers favourite before her. Before Empress Mother left us, she pa.s.sed on the hair ornament to Imperial Sister.

But after Imperial Elder Sisters death, Ning Anlian s.n.a.t.c.hed the hair ornament away. Ning Anlian threw away all of Imperial Sisters things, except for the jade green dangling ornament.

Ning Anlian seems to like that dangling ornament very much, and will even wear it from time to time.

Ning Lianchen felt like s.n.a.t.c.hing the hair ornament back every time he saw Ning Anlian wearing it, but he didnt 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 shouldnt be paying so much attention to a womans accessory.

But now, Su Xi-er had requested that jade green dangling ornament. Ning Lianchen turned towards Yun Ruofeng immediately. He had to use this opportunity to push for Ning Anlian to give it up.

That item was Imperial Elder Sisters favourite, and cant be allowed to remain in Ning Anlians hands!
