Ch. 242: Presenting Gift in Public 1
Ye Qingli probably understood that the princes and princesses had to present gifts every year at the palace banquet.
For an adult prince like Jun Lin Feng who can work in a government position has a lot of wealth on his own. Someone like the fourth princess, naturally she would rely on her imperial concubine mother to provide the gifts.
For someone like Little Seven, she only has the title of princess. She can’t even afford enough food for herself, how could she buy gifts?
At this time, the process of giving gifts by the princes and princesses was almost over.
The eunuch said sharply, "Fourth princess and Seventh princess, please present your gifts!"
It turned out that the fourth princess who should be at the front, due to the incident that just happened, she lagged behind. It just so happened to be together with Little Seven.
Little Seven waved her hands and was ready to go.
"Actually, I wrote a word myself, dedicated to the Emperor father."
Chu Tian Ge said in a hurry, "On this occasion, if you don’t get a generous gift, the emperor wouldn’t even bat an eye at you. What’s more, in the future, those people within the palace would suppress you even more!"
Little Seven smiled indifferently.
"It doesn't matter, I'm used to it anyway."
After that, just as she wanted to leave for the stage, Ye Qingli saw a faint flash of bitterness within her eyes.
Suddenly, she held Little Seven and stuffed something into her hand.
"This is for you!"
After that, she whispered in her ear.
Little Seven was very surprised and wanted to ask Ye Qingli about it, but Ye Qingli pushed her up.
The two princesses stood in front of the stage together, ready to present their father a gift.
The fourth princess glanced at Little Seven for a while.
In her eyes, she does not have a sister like this.
However, today when she saw Ye Qingli sitting with her, she was immediately discontent.
Ye Qingli has now become the number one enemy in her heart.
Even now, looking at Little Seven started to make her feel unpleasant.
"Hey, isn't that seventh sister? I haven't seen you last year, are you not shy now?"
Due to her mother’s early passing, Little Seven rarely attended this kind of occasion, and usually offered gifts to the emperor in private.
This is the first time that she made a public appearance in the court on this occasion.
Many people only remembered that the emperor had a seventh princess.
They didn't expect her to have grown so much.
The eyes of the Fourth Princess’ were high, and she gave Little Seven a dismissive look.
"One is a poor brat and another is a martial artist, what good things can you bring up?"
Imperial Concubine Duan didn't really remember Little Seven, but on the surface, she couldn't go overboard with it. She laughed and said, "It's good for you two sisters to present a gift together. An Ning, you are the older sister, so you should come first."
An Ning was the name of the Fourth Princess.
Imperial Concubine Duan looked at her empty hands and asked curiously.
The Fourth Princess proudly said, "An Ning has worked hard for the gift for nearly a year. Come servants, bring it up!"
Everyone's eyes were attracted to what was coming.
Four palace servants came up, they were carrying a wooden frame. There was a mantle covering something in the middle.
This time even the emperor was curious about it.
"An Ning, what tricks are you playing today?"
The fourth princess said proudly, "This is a rare treasure I brought from outside of this country. It is one of its kind in this world. For those people who can't look away when they see a priceless gem, they would definitely gain a couple of pounds just staring at it!
Imperial Concubine Duan said softly, "You must not be rude!"
However, the corner of her eyebrows was obviously smiling.
