355 Chapter 355 “Second Face Slap“
Despite the people were whispering to each other trying to guess what was inside the jar, Li Shi Ying was completely calm. She won’t let others made fun of her because of her gift for the emperor so...she already prepare a good one!
That 1000 years old ginseng couldn’t even be compared to her gift. Heh Duan Hui Nan, see with your own eyes how my gift would make your gift worthless!
CLAK.
The emperor carefully opened the jar after thanking Li Shi Ying for the gift and the moment it was opened, every people in the room could saw the yellowish color of the thing inside it.
"T-that! wasn’t that..." one of the people who was the nearest to the emperor seat, stood up in shock when he saw the thing inside the jar.
The emperor along with the empress and the Duan siblings were also shocked when they saw the gift Li Shi Ying gave.
"This...is a Royal honey!" the emperor gasped in surprise seeing the thick honey filling the old jar. If it was a normal honey then the emperor wouldn’t be so shocked.
When the emperor said it was Royal honey, all the guests inside the room went noisy.
"Royal honey! isn’t that the legendary honey that the guardian of Youdu Mountain drink??" a general stood up from his seat while pointed the jar with trembling hands.
"Then...won’t it be that honey...that can..." one of the guest near the general had his face went pale. Even the ladies inside the room also knew about this honey so their reaction were priceless.
Royal Honey, the honey produced by the queen bee owned by Qi Tou. This honey can persevere your beauty so anyone who drank it, won’t aging. They will look young for a long time. Also, this honey could made you live for another 50 years!
This honey was used by Li Shi Ying herself to at least, prolong her life in case the 10 years deadline she couldn’t achive it. The queen bee she got as her beast produced this honey once a month and she got so many that she could use it for bathing.
So Li Shi Ying decided to give some of this honey to the emperor.
"This lady, the gift you give is so precious!" the emperor hand was trembling as he close back the jar lid.
This honey...could only be obtained if they get the queen bee herself! But since the queen bee is a divine beast and is rumored to be very strong, there haven’t been a single cultivator in his country that could obtain this honey.
But this lady translator can casually give such a precious honey as a mere birthday present!
All the guests inside the room had their view about Li Shi Ying, raised again. Not only the girl was a young translator, she also had such a treasure! This means she also would at least have strength.
"Lady Li present is the best! truly suit her status! 1000 years old ginseng can’t compare with the Royal honey!" the guests began to compared Li Shi Ying gift with Duan siblings gift making the Duan siblings had red face.
That Li Shi Ying must obtained the queen bee to be able to provide this Royal honey!
While Duan Hu Yan began to admire Li Shi Ying even more, Duan Hui Nan didn’t think so.
Looking at the people who were singing praises for Li Shi Ying, Duan Hui Nan felt so humiliated! Her gift was said to be less worthy than Li Shi Ying gift.
As a princess who prepare this gift for her own father then later found out that other people gift is more fabulous than her gift, Duan Hui Nan felt like her pride was blown off.
How could someone else gift be better than the gift prepared by the emepror’s children? Wouldn’t this be a shame for the Duan siblings??
When people were noisy flattering Li Shi Ying for her kindness and her generous nature, Duan Hui Nan felt as if Li Shi Ying had slap her on her cheek.
S-she purposely give the invitation card late so that Li Shi Ying wouldn’t have time to prepare gift but! That b*tch still manage to give a good gift?? Even better than her gift!
Duan Hui Nan felt embarrassed and shamed but with her stubborn nature how could she back down? If status and wealth she was inferior to Li Shi Ying then she still had her beauty!
She remembered that Li Shi Ying was indeed beautiful but...that b*tch wasn’t as beautiful as her!
No wonder that b*tch wore veil to this banquet. She must be ashamed to show her so-so beauty! In this room among these young ladies, she was still the prettiest!
Li Shi Ying had just went back to her seat when suddenly, Duan Hui Nan once again made problem for her.
"Lady Li gift is indeed gorgeous but...I wonder why Lady Li wear veil...it is quite inappropriate for guest to cover their face here" Duan Hui Nan flash an innocent smile as she look at Li Shi Ying with concern.
It was as if she was a kind princess who wanted to remind Li Shi Ying about the circumstances around the palace!
