Chapter 523 Special Gift (2)

Su Miaolan was so overjoyed that her cheeks turned red, and she thanked him repeatedly for his kindness!

At this moment, the empress pouted. “Ah, sure enough, sons veer from their mothers when they grow old. Che’er, even your mother does not have clothes tailored from cloud orchid brocade. How partial.”

When Su Miaolan heard this, she quickly said, “Your Highness’s reward is too much, this cloud orchid brocade is not something this lowly one dares to accept.”

Gong Che smiled. “If I say I’m going to reward you, then I will. You can accept it.” Then, he said to the empress, “The cloud orchid brocade is certainly valuable, but I have a roll of cloud splendor brocade that I have brought especially for you, Mother Empress!”

His words surprised the crowd even more. There are only a hundred rolls of the cloud orchid brocade produced each year, but the cloud splendor brocade was even rarer! Only twenty pieces are produced each year. Even within the Yuheng’s royal harem, it was a great honor for any of the concubines to receive clothes tailored from this cloud splendor brocade.

One woman giggled. “Your Highness is so thoughtful, to have obtained even the second and third rarest materials in the world. Unfortunately we have only heard of its beauty but never seen it with our own eyes. Would we have the good fortune to witness it today?”

Gong Che said in a warm voice, “Madam has spoken too highly, how could I be so ungenerous? Everyone present today will be rewarded!”

As soon as he said that, all of them knelt down in surprise.

“Many thanks to the crown prince for the reward!”

Gong Che was really getting more and more mature. When he came back, he had especially brought all these things to please the women, all just so he could give the empress some face. Can’t you see that the empress is smiling from ear to ear?

She was so happy that when she saw Gong Yimo sitting alone to the side, thinking now that her son had put away his obsession, she felt more at ease with her and quickly said…

“Che’er, you haven’t told us what gifts you brought for Mo’er yet!”

The crowd turned silent for a moment. They were also curious to know what Gong Yimo would receive. Could it be something comparable to the cloud brocades that are hard to come by even with mountains of gold?

Gong Yimo also smiled and blinked her eyes at Gong Che. “That’s right, Imperial Brother. If your gift is too little then I won’t accept it!”

Her playful look was so cute that Gong Che almost could not control himself!

He lowered his eyes and said in a low voice, “Naturally Sister’s gift is going to be special. I will bring it to you personally after this.”

He seemed a little cold when he said this since his eyes were downcast, so much so that the empress finally believed that he had let her go. So much so that they all overlooked the “special” that he mentioned.

Gong Yimo was unperturbed and giggled. “Then, I’ll be looking forward to it!”

At this moment, Su Miaolan had also returned to her own seat. She raised her head and lifted her chest, feeling even more proud from the envy pouring over from all sides. After all, this is the glory of her fiancé.

But she also has her regrets, and that is the reason why Gong Yimo is able to occupy a special place in the crown prince’s heart. It is because Gong Yimo was the one who stepped in to help at his hardest times. It’s just a pity that the Gong Che almost even lost his position as a crown prince back then, so neither her or her family dared to step in to help, missing a really good opportunity.

But who knew that he would turn over this way?

Well, even if you missed the chance, there’s still more to do in the future, isn’t there? She was confident that as long as she becomes the crown princess, she will definitely be able to get the crown prince’s heart! And she won’t give anyone else even a bit of it!

After Su Miaolan’s performance, the empress arranged for more songs and dances. It was a good day today and she couldn’t help but drink a few more cups than usual.

After knocking back a few more cups, Gong Che was finally relieved to see his mother no longer latching onto him to talk. Gathering his courage, he said to Gong Yimo.

“After such a long parting, have you been well, Imperial Sister?”
