THE REVENGE OF FOX CONSORT
CHAPTER 19. A gift from Wei Bu Yi
***House of General Li Jin***
Ying Ying smiled faintly as the power of his long-range hearing heard something very interesting, precisely the arrival of a few people who were heading towards the front room.
A while later, A Niu dashed into the front room and walked over to Bai Lu.
"Madam! Eunuch Da Duo and Eunuch Xiao Duo are coming!" report A Niu.
"Why did Prince Wei Bu Yi's eunuch come?" bai Lu asked in an annoyed tone of voice.
Bai Lu had a bad feeling when he heard the names of the two eunuchs. Everyone knew Eunuch Da Duo and Eunuch Xiao Duo represented the arrival of Prince Wei Bu Yi so Bai Lu could not possibly resist their arrival.
"They're dropping off presents for Miss Chang Le!" answer A Niu.
"What?" chanted Chang Ru spontaneously.
Not too long ago Chang Ru asked what gifts were brought, Eunuch Da Duo, Eunuch Xiao Duo, and some of the soldiers Prince Wei Bu Yi had already arrived in the front room.
"Good afternoon Lady Bai Lu!"
Eunuch Da Duo and Eunuch Xiao Duo greeted Bai Lu with a normal attitude. The two of them did not care that Bai Lu did not return the greeting.
The two eunuchs bowed to face Ying Ying, followed by the soldiers of Prince Wei Bu Yi. They made two neat rows, with Eunuch Da Duo and Eunuch Xiao Duo standing at the very front row.
"Hamba saluted Miss Li Chang Le!"
Everyone who was in the front room was shocked by the demeanor of Prince Wei Bu Yi's subordinates towards Ying Ying Ying.
In their little hearts they were sure that Prince Wei Bu Yi had already accepted Li Chang Le as empress so that his subordinates were being respectful towards Li Chang Le.
"Eunuch Da Duo! Eunuch Xiao Duo!" call Ying Ying.
"Miss Li Chang Le! We delivered a gift from Prince Wei Bu Yi!" eunuch Da Duo.
Eunuch Da Duo clapped his hands once so that the soldiers who were marching behind him and Eunuch Xiao, walked forward simultaneously.
Ying Ying realized all the soldiers lined up neatly carrying boxes of varying sizes. The two warriors opened the box in their hands while standing before Ying Ying.
Two beautiful new hanfu in pink and light blue made Chang Ru look at him with sparkling eyes and envious feelings.
"Because of the limited time, only two sets of new hanfu were completed sewn. Miss Chang Le could choose one of the most preferred ones to wear at the palace dinner," Eunuch Xiao Duo said.
When Eunuch Da Duo gets the task of bringing Dayang Fu to the Residence of General Li Jin, Eunuch Xiao Duo gets the task of preparing for Li Chang Le's new hanfu.
Eunuch Xiao Duo praised the greatness of Prince Wei Bu Yi in predicting future events so that this new hanfu preparation could be used during the palace dinner.
"Miss Chang Le! These two hanfu are very beautiful and match the size of the lady's body" said Tan Xiang.
Tan Xiang was excited to see another gift still stored in the box.
Eunuch Da Duo smiled hearing Tan Xiang's words so as to signal the soldiers' hands.
"Open up! Open it!" said Ying Ying while clapping with spirit.
Ying Ying was trying to act perfectly like a five-year-old child because the entourage of Prince Wei Bu Yi's subordinates in front of him was not an easy fool to lie to.
When the 4 boxes are open, visible fabric rolls of silk material and brightly colored. If considered carefully, the new hanfu of light blue and pink was also made of silk.
"Silk cloth of the Northern Han Kingdom!" said Chang Ru.
"Miss Li Chang Ru's guess was very precise. All these silk cloths were tributes from the Northern Han Kingdom every year. Next month there will be a new tribute. At that time Miss Li Chang Le was already the consort of Prince Wei Bu Yi so I did not need to take her to the Residence of General Li Jin" explained Eunuch Xiao Duo.
The faces of Chang Ru and Bai Lu became grim instantly. Even Chang Ru bit her lower lip involuntarily due to the heightened sense of annoyance and anger.
The overreaction from Chang Ru and Bai Lu made Ying Ying wonder what the excess silk cloth from the Northern Han Kingdom was.
"Northern Han Empire? Tributes?" ying Ying asked as she pointed at the silk cloth inside the box.
Although Eunuch Da Duo was not sure whether Ying Ying understood her explanation or not, Ying Ying's question had to be answered honestly as a tribute to Prince Wei Bu Yi's future empress.
"Miss Li Chang Le! Every year the Northern Han Kingdom would send tribute to the Kingdom of Wei. One of them was silk cloth, but since it was expensive and limited in number, the Northern Han Kingdom only offered three rolls of silk cloth each year!" obviously Eunuch Da Duo.
"Three rolls of silk cloth" Ying Ying said as she brandished her three fingers.
"Yes, Miss Li Chang Le. Emperor Wei gave the three scrolls of silk cloth to three people. Queen Wen, Consort Ming Lan, and Prince Wei Bu Yi!" eunuch Da Duo.
"It was only fitting for Chang Ru to be so angry and annoyed. This silk fabric is very rare. Even Wei Wu Xian did not get it," Inner Ying Ying.
"Chang Ru's! I've got a lot of presents. Hanfu and the pair of earrings that were bought just now were for you," Ying Ying said in an innocent child tone of voice.
Tan Xiang understood what Ying Ying said so as to take out the hanfu and the pair of earrings earlier, then give it to Chen Chen.
"Miss Chang Le is already a good sister, as the young mistress wishes," Tan Xiang said.
The faces of Bai Lu and Chang Ru were pale instantly from getting the sharp gaze of the Da Duo Eunuchs entourage.
Their eyes stared at the new hanfu and jewelry that Bai Lu had prepared for Li Chang Le and compared it to the hanfu and jewelry belonging to Li Chang Ru, which Li Chang Ru had placed on the table.
