"So beautiful, I really like it, is there more?"

Nanny Xiao: "..." My Princess, night pearls aren’t just cabbages; even if there are more in this warehouse, they can’t be casually given to you!

Nanny Xiao seemed to have sensed her future fate!

"There should be more, right? Aunt remembers that more than ten years ago, when General Ji destroyed Suoluo Country, he obtained a very beautiful night pearl. Did Father reward that night pearl to someone else?"

Nanny Xiao: "..." My Princess Lianchun, you’re too wasteful, aren’t you? Is there anyone in the world who actively gives away treasures to others?

"What the Princess says is true; that night pearl is indeed still in the warehouse. However, it’s not in the Empress Dowager’s treasury but in His Majesty’s treasury."

"Oh! Don’t worry, Suisui, after you pick the eastern pearl, I’ll take you to your foster father, the Emperor, to ask for another night pearl!"

"Sure! Where’s the eastern pearl?

Where is it? I want a big eastern pearl!"

Nanny Xiao quickly took Xiaosuisui to the box containing the big eastern pearls.

"Here it is! Princess, please choose!"

Xiaosuisui picked up the remaining three big eastern pearls. Looking through the sunlight from the window, nodded, "Only one is usable."

Then she put down the other two and packed the usable one in her pouch!

Princess Lianchun and Nanny Xiao were both very surprised, wondering if there was some secret about this eastern pearl.

Princess Lianchun took the big eastern pearl Xiaosuisui didn’t want and also looked at it in the sunlight, but she didn’t see anything special.

"What’s special about this eastern pearl?

Aunt can’t see anything!"

Xiaosuisui pouted and looked into Princess Lianchun’s eyes, saying:

"Aunt doesn’t have the Heavenly Eye, so naturally, she can’t see the mystery inside!"

Princess Lianchun suddenly had a realization.

"So you only came to the palace to find treasures after seeing the mystery of the eastern pearl the Empress Dowager gave to your eldest aunt?"

Xiaosuisui nodded vigorously: "Yes, yes! The eastern pearl has a very strong Qi and vitality inside. I just need to engrave it and turn it into an array for my eldest aunt to wear. Her unborn little brother and sister will be able to absorb the Qi and vitality inside through her body as a medium.

In this way, the brother and sister won’t fight."

Princess Lianchun: "..."

Nanny Xiao: "..."

So that’s it!

"I remember you said before that you needed three such eastern pearls!

But now there’s only one!"

Xiaosuisui pouted, unhappy.

Grandma’s warehouse no longer has such big eastern pearls, so she could only bring this one back.

"Grandmother went to see the third uncle, asking him to go find some.

Eldest uncle also said he’d write to the Illusion Sect, asking Sect disciples to go out and search!"

Princess Lianchun: "What if they can’t find any? What about your eldest aunt..."

"If they can’t find any, I’ll have to drill a hole in this one and draw an array rune for my eldest aunt to make do with."

"So the effect of drilling a hole is different from not drilling a hole?"

Princess Lianchun suddenly understood something and quickly asked.

"Xiaosuisui nodded, unfortunately, there’s only one. If there were three, it would be perfect."

"Since our Great Han has people offering eastern pearls, other countries must have them too. I remember Xiling offered more than ten big eastern pearls three years ago."

"Really? Then I’ll go to Xiling’s palace to look for them!"

Xiaosuisui, hearing Princess Lianchun’s mumbling, suddenly had sparkling eyes.

Her face was full of delightful expressions.

"What are you going for? Isn’t your eighth uncle at Xianyu Pass?

General Huo just reclaimed the lost land, and they may already be preparing to attack Xiling’s cities. You can ask your eighth uncle to find a way to go to Xiling, can’t you get them back?"

Xiaosuisui became even happier upon hearing this, "Great, great, I’ll tell my third aunt, Feifei is quick, she will definitely bring back all the big eastern pearls from Xiling!"

"Achoo!"

At Xianyu Pass, Zhu Xiuxiu was analyzing the case with Huo Xing’Er, Princess Ata, and Ji Youze, seeking the disaster relief funds Great Han lost these years through Yunhang, when she sneezed hard.

"What’s wrong?

Have you caught a cold?"

Huo Xing’Er looked at her puzzled.

People here are martial artists and cultivators; it’s unlikely they’d catch a cold easily.
