Chapter 806: Chapter 688: Red Agate Mandarin Duck Rings (Two-in-One Mega Chapter)

Madam Li lectured Han Xinran for a while, then let her leave the main courtyard. As for how she would speak to the Han Family, Madam Li was too lazy to care.

Han Xinran silently returned to her courtyard, watching her butler nanny who looked at her eagerly, she massaged her temples and said, "The reason the Yan Family was able to buy the manor was also through someone’s assistance, we can’t help the Han Family. Go back and tell Mother to think of other methods."

The butler nanny looked disappointed, "What can Madam do? If there were any connections available at home, we wouldn’t have troubled the second young lady. Good girl, have pity on Madam and think of another way."

As she spoke, her eyes brightened.

"Right, the Yan Family’s Third Young Master and Fourth Young Master are serving in the Jinling Guard, and the Jinling Guard is in charge of the case concerning the Eight Princes Party’s followers. They must have a way. Why don’t you, young lady, go and beg them?"

Han Xinran’s expression immediately darkened, "Nanny, don’t say such things. How can I, someone who’s already a sister-in-law, go and beg my younger brother-in-laws?" Remembering the words Madam Li had taught her today, her tone grew heavier, "If I really go and beg Third Brother and Fourth Brother, does Nanny not want me to live peacefully in the Yan Family?"

Not to mention Madam, even my husband would be displeased to know.

The butler nanny was stunned and quickly spoke soothingly, "Good girl, this old servant never meant that."

Han Xinran’s face remained cold, "I really can’t help with this matter, hurry back and report to Mother."

The butler nanny glanced at Han nanny, hoping she would help persuade, but Han nanny didn’t even look at her. With no other choice, the butler nanny could only regretfully bow and leave.

"Wait!"

A gleam of joy appeared on the butler nanny’s face, she knew it, the second young lady always listened to Madam at home, how could she not help her own family.

Han Xinran looked at the butler nanny, "If there’s nothing important in the future, don’t keep sending people to the Yan Family. I am now a daughter-in-law of the Yan Family; it’s not good for me to meddle too much in my maiden family’s affairs. After Nanny goes back, please convey my regards to Mother."

The butler nanny’s mouth was slightly agape, staring at Han Xinran in shock.

Han Xinran diverted her gaze, indicating for Han nanny to send the guest away.

After the butler nanny was sent off, Han nanny folded back to see Han Xinran sitting before the window with a worried frown, and considering for a moment, she stepped forward to comfort her, "Miss, don’t worry, Madam will surely understand you."

Han Xinran gave a bitter smile, "I hope so." She paused, "I remember, after elder sister got married, Mother seemed to have never asked her to do anything for the family, saying she didn’t want her to have difficulties with her in-laws. Why is it that when it comes to me..."

"Is it just because elder sister married up, while I married down?"

Han nanny didn’t expect Han Xinran to think about this aspect and after a moment of contemplation, she said, "Miss, don’t overthink it, Madam surely didn’t mean that."

Han Xinran twirled her eyebrows but said nothing.

...

The Dragon Boat Festival was approaching, and officials from various provinces started to transport their tribute to the capital.

On the fifteenth day of April, the Provincial Governor from Yun Province contributed several boxes of precious stones and jade to the Emperor, among which a pair of bright red agate Mandarin Duck Rings was particularly eye-catching.

Beyond their vivid and arresting colors, the exquisite texture, the most important was the meaning they encapsulated.

Agate is regarded as a symbol of happiness and auspiciousness, and carving them into Mandarin Duck Rings was particularly suitable for affectionate lovers or for the engaged to wear.

The Emperor thought of his nephew and the Yan Family’s eldest girl as soon as he saw them.

Two years ago, after his mother passed away, the Yan Family’s eldest girl had already gone through the formal wedding rituals with his nephew, but he still hadn’t given her a publicly acknowledged status. Sometimes, he felt quite guilty about it, no wonder the last time he went to see uncle, uncle didn’t show him a good expression.

"Give these Mandarin Duck Rings as a gift to Yeyang for him to use as an engagement gift."

The Emperor had Eunuch An deliver the Mandarin Duck Rings to Xiao Yeyang.

No sooner had Eunuch An left than the people of the Empress Dowager and the Empress arrived.

The bright red agate Mandarin Duck Rings had extraordinary significance; the Empress Dowager, who had liked playing matchmaker in recent years, wanted to keep them as betrothal gifts; the Empress, meanwhile, wanted them as a dowry for her only daughter.

Unfortunately, both were a step too late.

Upon learning that the Emperor had already rewarded the item to Xiao Yeyang, the Empress Dowager frowned deeply, the Empress had some regrets, but she didn’t dwell on it too much.

Xiao Yeyang was very pleased upon receiving the bright red agate Mandarin Duck Rings, the image of Daohua’s fair, slender fingers adorned with the dazzling agate rings appeared in his mind, and he couldn’t help but murmur, "It must look beautiful."

After finishing his duties that afternoon, Xiao Yeyang entered the palace to give thanks for the gift. Just as he left the Qianqing Palace, he was summoned by the Empress Dowager to the Cining Palace.
