Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Su Qing asked Luan Hong where the person who saved her had gone. The Third Prince saved Xiaoying, and she repaid him by saving his mother and the Emperor. However, the young master who saved Luan Hong has not been thanked. She was busy dealing with the Empress and had no time to do so. Now, he was nowhere to be seen.

“That young master has left.”

Luan Hong also wanted to thank that young master. He had been protecting her and was even injured, but he had left without saying goodbye. She didn’t even see what he looked like. If she saw him again, she might not even be able to recognize him.

Su Qing looked around the crowd. At that time, she noticed a man had saved Luan Hong, but she only saw his back.

It was late, and there was a big assassination incident. Even if the music continued, people were not in the mood to dance. They all wanted to leave this place as soon as possible.

“Emperor, it’s late, and we want to return to rest.”

Su Qing saw that Xiaoying and Luan Hong were frightened and discouraged, so she asked the Emperor for her leave.

“My son will arrange a place for Miss Su to stay.”

The Emperor was also very tired and wanted to return to rest, but he had to hold on since there were guests. Su Qing suggested returning to rest, and the Emperor immediately got Yeluchun to arrange a place for Su Qing and the others to stay.

Yeluchun brought the three sisters to a luxurious yurt used to entertain envoys from other countries.

Su Qing and the others were commoners, so they usually had no right to stay there. However, the Emperor and Yeluchun explicitly instructed that Su Qing should be treated like a foreign envoy.

“Miss Su, rest early.”

Yeluchun cupped his hands at Su Qing. The Great Xia Kingdom emphasized the distinction between men and women, and he couldn’t stay there any longer at night.

“Young Master Yeluchun, thank you for saving me.”

Xiaoying thanked Yeluchun once again. The first time she was saved, she was just grateful. This time, being saved by Yeluchun, Xiaoying had a strange feeling. The moment she saw Yeluchun, her heart started to pound. She didn’t even dare to look at him.

Yeluchun looked at Xiaoying with a smile in his eyes.

“You’ve thanked me.”

His voice was warm like spring water had blown away the ice. It was charming to hear. Xiaoying’s heart beat faster, and her face was so red that she didn’t know what to say.

When the Third Prince saw Xiaoying’s shy appearance, the smile on his lips became even broader. He said to Su Qing happily,

“You guys rest. Xiao Wang is leaving.”

After leaving, Xiaoying dared to look at the yurt’s door. She was a little disappointed that she could not see his back.

“Miss Su, we’re here to deliver hot water.”

The voice of a palace maid came from outside the yurt. Yeluchun had thoughtfully sent them palace maids who understood the language of the Great Xia Kingdom to facilitate communication. He had also prepared three wooden buckets for them to bathe in.

Dried flower petals were scattered in the steaming hot water, and the yurt suddenly became fragrant as if it was a woman’s boudoir.

There was a stove in the yurt. The coal was burning red, but it was not cold at all. The three girls were comfortable soaking in the hot water covered with petals.

After taking a bath, the three girls lay on the carpet. It was incredibly comfortable to sleep on the carpet. Tartan was rich in wool, and some skilled craftsmen weaved the yarn into beautiful rugs.

Su Qing had her eyes set on it. Changing the carpet was better than changing the wool. It was too troublesome to spin the yarn herself after changing the string.

The following day, Su Qing and the girls slept well and woke up in high spirits.

“Pack up and get ready to go back.”

Su Qing told Xiaoying and Luan Hong that the handover had been completed yesterday and they could go home today.

“Miss Su.”

A soft call came from outside the yurt. It was the palace maid who had served them yesterday.

“Enter.”

Su Qing shouted. The palace maid was probably here to deliver the toiletries.

Sure enough, she wanted to. The palace maid who served her last night entered with a few palace maids. She held a gold basin and even brought a new cotton towel.

What Su Qing didn’t expect the most was that he sent them rouge and makeup. The Third Prince was very thoughtful.

Su Qing didn’t usually wear makeup and wasn’t interested in rouge. She just washed her face.

Xiaoying was a girl who loved beauty and liked these things very much. She applied makeup on her delicate little face and was very busy.

Luan Hong only applied some rouge on her cheeks and red lips. She did nothing to her eyebrows because her eyebrows were naturally good, like curved willow leaves.

As soon as they finished washing up, the palace maid brought breakfast. It was a sumptuous breakfast. There was milk tea, delicious milk cakes, and cheese that were daily necessities in Tartan and a basin of mutton cooked in clear water.

After breakfast, Yeluchun came with the hundred taels of gold, horse, and fat sheep that the Emperor had given Su Qing yesterday.

“Miss Su, Xiaoying, Miss Luan, good morning.”

Yeluchun walked into the yurt with a beaming face. Now that no one could compete with him for the throne, it was the time to be in high spirits.

“Morning.”

Su Qing finished the milk tea in her bowl. Although she didn’t like the taste, she could make do with it. She didn’t have the habit of wasting food.

Yelu Chun couldn’t take his eyes off Xiaoying when he saw her with makeup. He felt Xiaoying was too beautiful, like a delicate flower in full bloom. When he saw her, he could think of those beautiful poems that described women.

“Miss Xiaoying, are you used to living here?”

Yeluchun asked Xiaoying with a smile. Xiaoying blushed when Yeluchun came in, and her big watery eyes revealed a hint of shyness.

Her shoulders trembled when she heard Yelu Chun call her name. Her heart was beating so fast that it was about to jump out of her throat. Her small face was even redder than the sunset in the sky.

“Third Prince, we will be going back now. Thank you for your hospitality.”

Su Qing’s voice drew Yeluchun’s gaze over. He felt a little regretful.

“Aren’t you going to stay for two more days? Imperial Father also said he had given you all a fright last night and wanted to calm you down today. He would hold the Azure Mountain Conference at night.”

“When I came out, I told my family I was returning today.”

Su Qing declined politely and returned to Mo City with the consultation fee the Emperor gave her and the five carts of leather and hundreds of fat sheep she earned from selling coal and rheumatism cream.

The guards of Mo City could see the flock of sheep from afar. Their harvest was increasing. Now, Mo City did not have to worry about not having enough food or warm clothes.

Su Qing returned to the city to return her consultation fee to her father for safekeeping. Su Hanxuan was shocked by his daughter’s ability to earn money. Had she brought back a hundred taels of gold just from a trip?

He had been in business for many years but never could earn money like his daughter!

The Emperor rewarded Su Qing with gold, ten horses, and a hundred fat sheep. She did not hand over the hundred fat sheep to the public. It was selfless of her to give the fat sheep she earned from selling the ointment to the public. Usually, this would belong to her personal property.

Since his father was here, Su Qing felt she should settle things with the government. There was no need to waste what she should earn. The supplies exchanged for coal were enough to meet the team’s needs.

Therefore, Su Qing only brought ten horses to find Cheng Yu. The horses of Tartan were fat and strong and could be used as war horses for the army.

Su Qing handed the ten horses to Cheng Yu’s soldiers and went in to inform him. She did not expect to hear something that she had never expected..
