Chapter 321 The Empress, the Hostage from the Neighboring Country Has Returned in Battle (Part 5)
"Yes, it looks really good and suits you very well."
"Yes, the first time I saw it, I felt that this jade pendant was very suitable for Ji Yu'an."
"Elder sister, who did you just say was suitable?"
The second princess looked at Jiang He strangely.
Jiang He looked at the Second Princess with a puzzled expression.
"I said it suits you. Didn't you buy this jade pendant because you like it and it suits you well?"
You just said it suits Ji Yu'an? What? You like Ji Yu'an? You bought this jade pendant to give to him?
"This jade pendant costs a thousand taels of silver! I didn't realize you liked Ji Yu'an so much. You're willing to spend so much money to give him a jade pendant."
The Second Princess panicked when Jiang He pointed out her thoughts.
"Sister, you've misunderstood. I don't like Ji Yu'an."
This season, Yu'an is the person my elder sister likes. How could I possibly compete with my elder sister for him?
I thought that my elder sister liked Ji Yu'an, so whenever there was something good in the Golden Jade Pavilion, my elder sister would buy it and give it to Ji Yu'an.
My elder sister is just too busy.
I think this jade pendant is quite nice, and I'm afraid my elder sister might miss out on it.
I bought this jade pendant for my elder sister.
My dear sister, if you don't like this jade pendant, I'll take it back and return it.
"I just bought it, so I can still return it."
At Jin Yu Ge, as long as the jewelry was purchased within the last day and is undamaged, you can return it to the shopkeeper.
After all, many of them bought them intending to give them as gifts.
If the recipient doesn't like or finds something unsuitable as a gift, it can be returned at the original price.
If the item is returned after one day but less than three days, you can only get a 20% discount.
Returns are no longer permitted after three days.
Of course, Jin Yu Ge also offers a recycling service.
Old jewelry can be recycled at Jin Yu Ge.
The recycling price is still around 10-20%.
If it's in particularly good condition, you can get 40-50% of the original price back.
"If you like Ji Yu'an and want to give it to him, then go ahead and give it to him."
Anyway, I don't like Ji Yu'an anymore. If you like him, go ahead and pursue him.
However, based on my experience, Ji Yu'an is not easy to pursue.
You know how much effort I put into pursuing Ji Yu'an.
And so, Ji Yu'an did not budge.
So if you like it, you need to be prepared for a long-term commitment.
"Royal sister, you don't like Ji Yu'an anymore? How could that be? Didn't you like him a lot?"
The second princess looked at Jiang He with an indifferent expression.
Could it be that Jiang He really doesn't like Ji Yu'an anymore?
"No matter how good Ji Yu'an is, he's still just a man."
When I like someone, I'm willing to put in the effort.
However, Ji Yu'an took himself too seriously.
Now that I don't like him anymore, Ji Yu'an is no longer special to me.
I am destined to be an empress, and there will be plenty of men who want to serve me.
Ji Yu'an wanted a lifelong, monogamous relationship.
I used to spoil him, wanting him to experience the feeling of being the only one loved.
I don't like it anymore. Ji Yu'an doesn't have that special privilege with me anymore.
My dear sister, do you really want to hang yourself on a man?
"Should we give up the whole forest for one tree?"
The Second Princess looked at Jiang He and said these words lightly.
I feel a little sad.
Ji Yu'an is different from other men.
How could Jiang He compare Ji Yu'an to other men?
However, Jiang He is the heir and will become the empress in the future.
As an empress, Jiang He will definitely have many men around her in the future.
Jiang He was destined not to give Ji Yu'an a lifetime of monogamy.
Ji Yu'an has been refusing to agree to Jiang He's request because of these concerns.
Jiang He can't do it, but she can.
Ji Yu'an is the most perfect tree in this forest.
If she could have Ji Yu'an, she would be willing to give up the entire forest.
"Elder sister, since you no longer like Ji Yu'an, then I'll go after him. I quite like him."
The second princess looked shy.
She definitely couldn't win against Jiang He.
Now that Jiang He has withdrawn, her opportunity has arrived.
"I don't like it anymore. I won't go back to an old flame, so don't worry."
If you like someone, then go for it without hesitation.
I can guarantee that I will never ask Ji Yu'an out again.
To show that I have completely severed ties with him, I compiled a list of gifts I had previously given to Ji Yu'an.
Since we're going to sever ties, it's probably best if I take back the gifts I gave him before.
If you like Ji Yu'an, you definitely want to see that all the jewelry Ji Yu'an wears is a gift from you.
You wouldn't be happy if he wore the jewelry I gave him on a date with you.
Jiang He took out a list, which contained all the gifts she had given to Ji Yu'an before.
Even something as small as a calligraphy brush is recorded clearly.
Jiang He's determination to sever ties was unwavering.
The second princess looked at the list.
I didn't expect Jiang He to give so many things.
However, it's good that Jiang He took these things back.
That way, she can send Ji Yu'an another copy based on these instructions.
With so many things, she could deliver a different one every day for months on end.
In addition, there are calligraphy brushes, inkstones, and desks.
These are all things that Ji Yu'an uses every day.
Whenever Ji Yu'an uses these things, he thinks of her; she's perfect.
“Elder sister, since you’re busy, I’ll make the trip for you. I’m going to the villa to see Ji Yu’an anyway, I’ll deliver this list to him for you.”
"Then I'll have to trouble you, Your Highness. I'll also send a steward over there; he can bring these things back."
The second princess carefully put the jade pendant away.
Also, keep the gift list.
While Jiang He was taking back the gifts she had given earlier, she was giving away this jade pendant.
This comparison makes her sincerity even more apparent.
The likelihood of Ji Yu'an accepting her has also greatly increased.
The second princess, accompanied by her maid, headed towards the detached residence.
The steward of the First Princess's residence also brought several carriages and people to follow behind the Second Princess.
The second princess and the eldest princess truly share a deep sisterly bond.
The second princess wanted to personally help the eldest princess retrieve her belongings.
A large group of people arrived at the villa.
This annex was specifically for the residence of envoys from other countries.
Ji Yu'an usually lives here alone.
There is a courtyard in the villa that was specifically for Ji Yu'an to live in.
Food will be prepared at the villa.
Ji Yu'an's meals are not a problem.
Even though they were sent as hostages, the Empress did not mistreat them. While she didn't provide them with lavish meals every day, she still ensured that each meal included one meat dish, one vegetable dish, and one soup.
Moreover, it's made to taste like Vientiane cuisine.
If envoys from other countries visited, Ji Yu'an would serve them the same meals as the envoys.
However, aside from meals and accommodation, Ji Yu'an would have to find his own way to get anything else he wanted.
It's impossible for an empress to give a hostage a salary.
Envoys from the Kingdom of Wanxiang visit the Kingdom of Fengming every year.
As the fourth prince of Wanxiang Kingdom, Ji Yu'an would receive some silver from the envoys each time they came.
Although it wasn't much, it was more than enough for Ji Yu'an's daily needs.
Compared to ordinary people, Ji Yu'an's treatment is definitely very good.
However, compared to the other princes of Wanxiang Kingdom and the princesses of Fengming Kingdom, Ji Yu'an lived a relatively frugal life.
