2560: Qiaoqiao's Gifts

Qiaoqiao's Gifts

This fully deserved to be called sacred rice! What else would it be when it was planted in sacred earth and cultivated with sacred water!2

"Where did you buy it?" The old prince liked the glutinous and refreshing texture with his first bite.

He nearly swallowed his tongue too.

He was someone who could eat three bowls of white rice with just preserved vegetables on the side, after all…

Today, he ate five bowls of rice at once. Later, it was only when the prince consort reminded him not to stuff himself too much that he reluctantly stopped.

"You can't buy it anywhere." Qiao Mu answered nonchalantly. "I planted it."

The old prince immediately scooted his stool next to Qiao Mu. He felt that Mo Lian, who was sitting between him and Qiaoqiao, was an eyesore, so he pushed him backwards and stuck his head over. He revealed a rare smile and said, "Qiaoqiao, can you give some Imperial Uncle some of this rice?"

Mo Lian: …

Imperial Uncle's expression was full of distaste even though he had gotten so close to him. He truly didn't know if he was Imperial Uncle's blood-related nephew!

"Bring a storage talisman over to hold it then." Qiao Mu thought about it and nodded her head.

"Storage talisman?" The old prince was stunned. He said puzzledly, "How would I have a storage talisman?"

Qiao Mu turned to look at the Kang Prince Consort. "It's with Imperial Aunt."

The prince consort was also stunned. Afterwards, she thought of something and had Danling bring over the box that the crown prince consort had given her.

As expected, when she opened it, there was a blue storage talisman crafted from ebony lying inside the box.

Next to it was a box the size of a rouge case, with a small light red pill inside.

The Kang Prince was truly shocked at this time. He picked up that ebony tablet and studied it closely. He asked excitedly, "This? This really is a storage talisman? The prince consort can use it?"

Qiao Mu nodded. "She can."

The prince consort had given the recherché fire bangle, this spatial storage vessel, to her. Considering that it was inconvenient to be without a spatial storage vessel, Qiao Mu thus gave a storage talisman to the prince consort as a return gift.

Additionally, that red pill was a warm jade pill that cured coldness inherent to the body. The prince consort's body was innately of a colder nature, and taking this pill would suppress her symptoms for a period of time.

At that time, she was thinking that since she could not refuse an elder's gift, she should help the prince consort treat this coldness afflicting her body. After all, she had taken away the protective bangle the prince consort used to withstand the cold symptoms.

The prince consort had never used a storage talisman before, so she was incredibly curious.

With Qiao Mu's guidance, the prince consort activated the talisman by dripping a drop of blood. Sure enough, she could use this storage talisman normally.

"Imperial Aunt, you can use it with no worries. I will make you a jade talisman later on. You can wear it normally as a pendant, and it won't be eye-catching."

The old prince heard the little fellow's hidden meaning. He was totally stammering now. "You, you? You made it?"

"Mhm!"

"You are a talisman practitioner?"

"Mhm!"

Mo Lian twitched his mouth.

Strange, why did he find this dialogue somewhat familiar?

The old prince was instantly at a loss for words.

Why did he feel that the stimulation he received today was a bit too much?

Who prattled to him that the young crown prince consort was a village girl from the Lower Star Domain and was not a match for His Highness the Crown Prince?

Hoping that he could advise the emperor to annul this troublesome marriage in His Highness the Crown Prince's stead. And then find a noble lady or a domineering woman who was a match for the crown prince.

He truly should let these people come and see whether the young crown prince consort was as unpresentable as they thought her to be. She was both a pill alchemist and a talisman practitioner!

This old man's brain would be waterlogged to listen to you people.

The prince consort truly had foresight. The young crown prince consort was both a pill alchemist and a talisman practitioner, just that her reputation was not yet widely known. One would be a big fool to not be on friendly terms with such a genius.
