Chapter 17 Gifts
After a night of blizzard and snow, the long streets in the capital were empty, and even the restaurants and brothels in the past closed early.

Inside the Yunwai Building, an East China Sea night pearl is inlaid on the top of the building. Reflected by the glass mirrors on all sides, the building is illuminated as bright as day.

Mo Jingzhan stood in front of the window with his hands behind his back, looking at the flying snow outside the window without any emotion.

Behind him, Xiao Yunlan said with a distressed expression: "What did you say? Wasn't the plan to assassinate the prince already made? Why did you suddenly change your mind?"

"The prince is mediocre, not worth spending a lot of money on."

"But if we succeed this time, once the prince is abolished, the second prince will definitely return to Beijing! By then, the military power in the northern border will naturally fall into the hands of the God of War of the Three Continents."

"not the right time yet."

"Mo Jingzhan! What's wrong with you?"

Xiao Yunlan jumped up anxiously. Ever since he protected Li Huang and forced himself to agree to that unreasonable request that day, he felt something was wrong.

Today Mo Jingzhan braved the wind and snow to come, but told him that the plan has changed?
Xiao Yunlan was full of resentment, glaring at Mo Jingzhan one after another.

However, Mo Jingzhan was unmoved, just glanced at him quietly, then pointed to the gold wire heater in his arms, "Give this to me."

Xiao Yunlan: "..."

"Are you still human? My son has been weak since he was a child, and he will freeze to death without this thing!"

"Bring it."

Mo Jingzhan started directly, snatched the thing from Xiao Yunlan's arms, and then looked at his good brother with a look of disgust, "If you are weak and sick, move more, this thing will not last your life."

Xiao Yunlan: "..."

He really committed a crime!
"Also," Mo Jingzhan glanced at the exquisite heater in his arms, "The eldest princess may not be as rumored, and she will do it at this time to startle the snake."

"Heh!" Xiao Yunlan snorted coldly, "Then what are you going to do?"

"Watch what happens."

The snow fell even more.

At dawn the next day, the sound of cleaning the snow and gargling came from inside and outside the Princess Mansion.

When Mo Jingzhan got up early in the morning, he saw several big vermilion boxes in the middle of the yard.

Ling Yuan is counting the items in the box.

One of the pair of cups was particularly bright, Ling Yuan glanced at the set of cups, and quickly looked away in surprise.

When Li Huang came out wrapped in a cloak, he saw Mo Jingzhan in strong make-up.

She yawned, glanced at the items in the box, and said with a smile, "Take whatever you like, and treat it as a gift from my palace."

Mo Jingzhan looked back in surprise, "Aren't these gifts sent back by the prince?"

"Yes," Li Huang was in high spirits, and sneered, "What's so special about giving to me what others have picked out?"

Only then did Mo Jingzhan realize something was wrong.

In these boxes, except for the pair of cups and cups, everything else is indeed normal.The quality of jewelry is also ordinary, and other things are useless.

So, this box was sent elsewhere to be picked first?
"Have you thought about what you want?"

Seeing Mo Jingzhan's brows furrowed tightly, Li Huang thought he was worried about choosing something, so he asked subconsciously.

After she finished speaking, she saw Mo Jingzhan directly picking up the pair of cups and handing them to Li Huang: "These pair of cups should be made by famous masters, and they are worthy of a princess."

Li Huang raised her eyebrows, it is indeed a master's work.

"what do you want?"

She motioned Ling Yuan to take the cup and asked.

Mo Jingzhan shook his head and pointed to Li Huang's hand.

"Wrench?"

Mo Jingzhan shook his head, "It's the princess's handkerchief."

"Presumptuous!" Ling Yuan was packing her things, when she heard Mo Jingzhan's reckless words, she immediately flew into a rage.

The personal belongings of the daughter's house, except for the husband, how can they be given away casually!

Li Huang glanced at the undelicate handkerchief clutched in his hand, helplessly: "I don't want any gold, silver or jewellery, but I want my handkerchief, Ning Qi, you'd better not have thoughts that you shouldn't have."

"Didn't Your Highness say that whatever I want, I will give it to me?" Mo Jingzhan pretended not to understand Li Huang's words, and asked back.

This question made Li Huang confused.

She was talking about the contents of the box, not her veil!

"I can't give you this veil. You can change it."

Mo Jingzhan nodded clearly, but he didn't feel disappointed, and turned to look at Zhu Chai on Li Huang's head, "This hairpin, is it okay?"

Li Huang: "..."

very good!What a dare!The handkerchief just now is probably because he asked for this Zhu Chai for convenience!
"His Royal Highness wants to go back on his word?"

His tone was aggrieved.

Li Huang glared at him angrily, pulled off the red hairpin from his head and threw it to him, "Take it away."

After all, she carried her skirt and went back to the hall angrily.

Outside the hall, Mo Jingzhan looked down at the hairpin in his hand, and the corners of his mouth slightly raised.

After the snow, it is clear again, and it is the time when the winter plums bloom again.

Li Huang loves to be lively by nature, but after falling into the water a few days ago, he is much more peaceful.Now hearing that the Eldest Princess is in good health, the daughter-in-law of General Zhen Guo's mansion sent someone to invite Li Huang to visit the mansion to enjoy the flowers.

Ye Jiuning is well-known in the capital as a lively and fun-loving person. On weekdays, there will be a small poetry meeting in the house every three or two days, or she will invite noble girls from Beijing to enjoy flowers and drink tea.

Li Huang often went there in the past, but looking at this invitation card today, she rubbed the center of her brows irritably.

Seeing this, Ling Yuan leaned forward and kneaded her brows caringly, and asked in a low voice: "His Royal Highness has never been absent from Miss Ye's banquet in the past, what's the matter today?"

Li Huang couldn't tell what happened.It's just that she had a dream last night, but when she woke up, she didn't remember what happened at all.This strong sense of unease filled her mind, making it difficult to calm down.

"If Your Highness really doesn't want to go, this servant will refuse for you."

"No need." Li Huang took a deep breath and called Ling Yuan to stop, "General Zhen Guo is brave, and the eldest daughter of the family is the only female general in the world. Ye Jiuning's banquet, I still want to give face to this."

Speaking of the female general in the Hou's mansion, Ling Yuan sighed silently, "I will arrange it now, servant girl."

The next day, the flower feast.

Before going out, Li Huang thought about it, and asked Ling Yuan to go to the room to look for Mo Jingzhan.But who would have thought that after Ling Yuan searched around, she couldn't even find a single person.

Li Huang frowned, and said lightly: "Forget it, let Jiang Mu escort me to the palace today."

"Your Highness, according to your instructions, Jiang Mu went out of the city to meet His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

Li Huang: "..."

She forgot about it.

However, when Li Huang walked to the gate of the mansion, he suddenly saw a young man half leaning on the carriage outside the princess mansion.

Sensing Li Huang's gaze, Mo Jingzhan jumped out of the carriage and joked: "I thought His Highness would have to dress up before coming out."

"How do you know Ben Gong is going out?"

Li Huang bypassed this topic and asked what was on her mind.

"Guess."

"Guess? Then what else did you guess?"

Li Huang stared straight at him, although his eyes were pure, but whoever was stared at by a woman like this would feel a little uncomfortable.

Mo Jingzhan glanced at her faintly, and said casually: "I also guessed that the princess has peach blossom debts to repay today."

Li Huang glared at him angrily, "If you dare to talk nonsense, I will never forgive you!"

Hearing the words, Mo Jingzhan couldn't help shaking his head helplessly, stretched out his arms and said, "It's time to go."
