The speed at which his wife changes her expression is unbelievable, Long Rui couldn’t help but laugh out loud.

The doorkeeper looked at the Prince in surprise, he couldn’t imagine the Prince would actually laugh!

Long Rui’s expression turned serious, and he coldly said, "What are you looking at? Hurry up and follow the madam."

"Yes, my lord!" The doorkeeper shuddered inside and quickly turned to flee, oh my! It turns out the Prince’s gentleness is only for the madam’s eyes. To save his own life, he’d better make himself scarce quickly.

A large group of Imperial Guards dressed in palace attire arrived, carrying large and small gifts in their hands. Eunuch Li held the Imperial Edict, standing at the front, waiting for Situtu Xueer to come out and receive the decree.

The surrounding was packed with onlookers, all pointing and talking, no one knew what they were saying.

Just then, Xuexue came out with Zi Xia.

"Eunuch Li, has the Empress Dowager’s illness been cured?" Xuexue stepped up to Eunuch Li and asked excitedly.

Eunuch Li smiled and said, "Yes! The Empress Dowager has recovered and insisted on having The Emperor reward you. The Emperor, having no choice, issued an Imperial Edict, so we servants have been sent to deliver it."

Xuexue wasn’t really interested in the Imperial Edict; she’s more concerned about when she’d receive the ten thousand taels of gold.

Xuexue: "Eunuch Li, since the Empress Dowager is better now, where are the ten thousand taels of gold?"

Eunuch Li laughed and said, "Madam Situ, you can be seen as a nouveau riche now. How come you love gold so much?"

Xuexue: "Nonsense, who in this world doesn’t love gold? Those who say they don’t love gold are hypocrites."

Eunuch Li agreed, saying, "Madam Situ is truly straightforward."

After speaking, Eunuch Li nodded to a few guards nearby.

A few guards immediately carried a large chest forward and placed it in front of Xuexue.

Xuexue looked at it with a puzzled expression.

One of the guards opened the box, revealing it full of glittering gold.

Xuexue’s eyes lit up instantly, all this gold was hers, a full ten thousand taels.

Eunuch Li laughed and said, "Madam Situ, are you satisfied now?"

Xuexue smiled until her mouth couldn’t close, repeatedly saying, "Satisfied, satisfied, very satisfied. The Emperor’s efficiency is incredible, in just one night, he delivered ten thousand taels of gold to me."

Eunuch Li: "Wrong, wrong!"

Xuexue: "What’s wrong?"

Eunuch Li: "This gold isn’t from The Emperor’s rewards; it was the Empress Dowager who sent it, wanting to thank you for saving her life."

Xuexue waved her hand carelessly and laughed, "Who cares who sent it, as long as it’s mine now, that’s what matters."

Zi Xia looked at the young mistress’s expression of greed, feeling somewhat helpless, thinking, young mistress, can’t you be a bit more reserved? We’re not poor, we’re a wealthy family earning thousands a day, is it necessary to laugh like this for ten thousand taels of gold?

"Young mistress, be a bit more reserved," Zi Xia couldn’t help but whisper.

Xuexue didn’t want to be so excited, but upon seeing this gold, she couldn’t help it, especially knowing it was The Emperor’s gold, which made her even more thrilled, so she smiled and whispered back, "Got it."

Eunuch Li waved the Imperial Edict in his hand, saying, "Madam Situ, the good news is yet to come, hurry up and prepare to receive the decree."

"What is it?"

"Good things, hurry and arrange an altar to receive the decree," Eunuch Li patiently added.

Yesterday, he was quite dissatisfied with Situtu Xueer, thinking she wasn’t capable yet dared to treat the Empress Dowager. Who would’ve thought, the Emress Dowager’s illness was indeed cured by Xueer. Eunuch Li couldn’t help but look at her with new eyes.
