Chapter 1331: Chapter 1118: The Suppleness Around the Fingers of Little Prince Xiao (30)

In the main courtyard of the Princess Residence, Daohua sat elegantly in the central hall. As she saw Guyu leading five noblewomen inside, her gaze instantly settled on Ye Yueying. 𝒇𝓻𝓮𝓮𝙬𝙚𝒃𝒏𝓸𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝓬𝓸𝒎

Ye Yueying walked at the very back, but she still keenly sensed a pair of eyes focused on her. Her spine involuntarily straightened as she steadied her heart, maintaining her composure while following the others into the central hall, where they collectively bowed in greeting.

"Wishing the Princess Consort boundless blessings and good health!"

Daohua smiled and invited the ladies to rise, then praised each one in turn without showing any particular preference toward Ye Yueying.

After some small talk, Daohua looked toward Guyu and said, "Didn’t you mention a few days ago that we had received some new jewelry? Go fetch it; I think it will suit these ladies perfectly."

Guyu smiled, curtsied, and left the room briefly. She returned quickly with a tray but wore a look of hesitation on her face.

Noticing this, Daohua asked, "What’s the matter?"

Guyu glanced at the five noblewomen present, then moved closer to Daohua and lifted the red cloth covering the tray: "Princess Consort, it is my failure in planning—there are only four pieces of jewelry."

On the tray, four exquisite pieces of jewelry were displayed neatly.

A purple Eastern Pearl necklace, an Eight-Treasures ruyi pendant, a red jade and gold hairpin, and a plum blossom hair clasp adorned with gilded inlays and kingfisher feathers. Each item was magnificent enough to provoke envy.

The ladies’ eyes sparkled with admiration.

But... five ladies and four pieces of jewelry—how would the Princess Consort distribute them?

Ye Yueying’s gaze lowered slightly, and her clasped hands tightened.

The Princess Consort certainly wouldn’t lack another piece of jewelry, would she?

Her grandmother once said that every action and word from those in high positions has its purpose.

Was the Princess Consort doing this to test something?

Ye Yueying quickly lifted her gaze to observe the dignified and majestic Wei Yuan Princess Consort seated at the host’s position. The Princess Consort’s brows were faintly knit, as if she were in genuine difficulty.

Could it be the Princess Consort wished for someone to voluntarily relinquish their claim to the jewelry? What kind of test would this be?

Ye Yueying was not the only one sensing something unusual—Miss Liu, the daughter of the Minister of Revenue, stepped forward first: "Princess Consort, please don’t worry. Though I’m deeply envious of your treasures, with only four pieces of jewelry, why not reward the other ladies instead?"
