Yan Yuqing could not help but frown. Wasn't this person busy with government affairs? Why did he come here to play jokes with her? When Yan Yuqing thought of this, her tone turned slightly displeased. "Why do you care so much?"

Xuanyuan Jue glanced at the blueprints on the table. With those complicated and gorgeous designs, it was easy to guess who she was giving them to just by looking at them.

When Shopkeeper Jin saw this, he hurried over to smooth things over and say something like "I'm sorry".

Yan Yuqing did not mind and said with a smile that it was all right. She said, "Once it's installed, send someone to the Mansion of the Unions to notify them." Then she left.

Xuanyuan Jue followed Yan Yuqing the whole way without speaking a word. After walking for a while, Yan Yuqing finally could not take it anymore. She stopped to yell at him. Seeing that there were people all around her, she restrained herself once more.

"Little fatty, are you here to cause trouble on purpose?"

"Little Fatso?" "Me?" Xuanyuan Jue was somewhat stunned.

Before he could even react, a carriage had arrived. Just as she was about to collide with Yan Yuqing, Xuanyuan Jue pulled her up and spun around to avoid the horse carriage.

Xuanyuan Jue looked at Yan Yuqing's pale face and her unblinking eyes. He could not help but pull her closer to his chest while he patted her with his other hand, "Don't be afraid, it's all over."

Hearing Xuanyuan Jue's words, Yan Yuqing unconsciously blushed.

"I'm not afraid!"

His face was close to hers, his nose was touching hers, and even the warm breath they exhaled could be felt on their faces. Yan Yuqing was shocked. She was so nervous that she felt like suffocating.

Xuanyuan Jue's expression was calm. Seeing Yan Yuqing in such a bad mood, he teased, "I never thought that someone as despotic as a princess would blush."

Yan Yuqing was infuriated as she ran back into the residence.

Xuanyuan Jue laughed as he watched that charming figure slowly disappear from his sight, then turned around and left.

Ever since she had returned that day, Yan Yuqing had been stuck in her room, refusing to go out no matter what.

She watched as the day of the Queen's birthday approached, yet her own daughter seemed to have become a completely different person. This only added to her mother's worry, Princess Cui. Thinking that she was still depressed over the engagement with the crown prince, she came to her room early in the morning.

"I heard you ordered a hairpin for esteemed empress. It's quite unique." When are you going to finish it, show it to me. " Lady Cui asked as she casually flipped through the pages written by Yan Yuqing.

Yan Yuqing had almost forgotten that she had not left the manor for more than half a month.

Seeing the hairpin on his mother's head that had been gifted to him by the Queen all those years ago, he couldn't help but feel some anticipation towards the hairpin he had created himself.

Once Yan Yuqing had made up her mind, she immediately called Qing Zhu to prepare to leave. When Mrs Cui saw that her face was rosy, she no longer felt depressed like before. She immediately felt relieved. On the way out, he even asked her to change into a pomegranate colored pleated dress with gold thread.

The Liu Family's Golden House was bustling with business and business.

Shopkeeper Jin was in the middle hall chatting with the guests when he saw Yan Yuqing. He immediately walked over with a smile and led her to the back hall.

This was the first time Yan Yuqing had entered the back hall. Within the elegant and unique room, there was a long row of treasure shelves that displayed all kinds of rare jewelry. A pigeon egg sized gem was glowing with a green light.

"What is this?" Yan Yuqing thought she was wrong. This thing had actually appeared in the Liu Family Jewelry.

"Reporting to Princess, this is Lu Song Lu." Manager Jin bowed and replied.

Lu Song Lu? It turns out that the emerald is also called Luzon Green, and is full of the mysteries of spring.

Yan Yuqing did not find any gems in the royal palace or the Fortune Caravan, she did not expect to meet them here today. She stood there for a long time, mesmerized, trying to see the beauty of the gem from all angles. Just as she reached out her hand to feel the texture of the gem, she resisted the urge to pull it back without her master's consent.

"If you like it, you can take it and have a look." A warm and refreshing voice came from the other side of Yan Yuqing.

Her husband, who was dressed in a long white robe and had a handsome face, entered Yan Yuqing's line of sight.

He was holding an inch long hairpin in his hand. On the blood-red coral branch, there was a lifelike drawing of a pearl the size of a grain of rice. It was exactly the same as the one he had drawn on that day.

Xiao Yan went up and said politely, "I don't know if what you've done is right. Let me try it on for you."

Saying that, without waiting for Yan Yuqing to agree, he pulled her sleeve and sat by the mirror in the corner.

In the mirror, the lips of the woman's face looked like blossoming flowers, while the skin and flesh were fine and fine. She really was a peerless beauty. Xiao Yan stared at the hairpin in a daze.

"As expected, it's a good item. If it was worn by the empress, it would definitely become a hot selling item." Yan Yuqing was also very satisfied.

"I would like to wait until the Queen's birthday to make a small set of coral hairpins and leave them at your place, how about that?" Yan Yuqing held onto the scarlet coral hairpin and put it on.

Xiao Yan nodded in agreement. "Sure."

"You're not asking me to split the profits?" Yan Yuqing was surprised.

In the past, Manager Jin would always ask her for her share with a smile on his face before deciding whether it was appropriate.

Xiao Yan shook his head and smiled, "It's alright."

Yan Yuqing thought that he was giving face to Xuanyuan Jue and said embarrassedly, "favors are favors and business is business. This makes it hard for me to do. "

Hearing her words, Xiao Yan's expression became a little unnatural.

He walked to the treasure rack, bent down, and opened an ancient yellow pear box. A dazzling golden collar was quietly lying inside.

In the middle of the collar was a brightly colored stone inlaid with a milky yellow color. Under the sunlight, it emitted a dazzling radiance.

"Isn't this what I did before? So it's still here. " Yan Yuqing was in high spirits as she admired the piece of jewelry that she had made when she was eleven years old.

This was the only item that she had taken a fancy to from the items that the Fortune Caravan had shipped over.

In the past, the Liu family's Golden Hall only made gold ornaments, but it had a single variety and its business was not flourishing. One day, a girl with a gorgeous gem came to find their master to embed it.

The master of the Golden Tower suggested cutting it into small pieces to make a set. That girl had a good idea. She made a simple necklace.

He didn't expect that after the finished product was made and placed in the shop, the business would suddenly flourish. The Liu Family Golden Tower stood out from the many jewelry shops in the capital, becoming more and more famous.

At that time, many people wanted to buy it, and Yan Yuqing did not keep it for herself. She told Manager Jin that she would drop it as long as the price was right. Unexpectedly, after a circle, he was taken away by the boss of the Golden Tower.

"It's a pity that I've never seen such a rock before. I wonder what its name is?" Xiao Yan looked at the collar.

"I heard that Uncle Long-Beard and the others call it Opal. I heard that on the other side of the sea, it represents love." Yan Yuqing's tone was filled with yearning.

On the other side of the sea? Xiao Yan remembered.

In this world that viewed money like trash, he had always been curious as to why this girl, who came from a distinguished family, would be so interested in making money.

"Can you do me a favor?" As Xiao Yan spoke, he picked up the jade that Yan Yuqing had seen earlier and asked, "What do you think this item should be made of?"

Yan Yuqing stood at the side and said, "If there's only one, why don't you make a gold bracelet and put it on your wrist. It will be inlaid with rubies, sapphires, and other items. Is it not as interesting as a jade bracelet?"

Xiao Yan also felt that he could give it a try when he heard this. Even people who were used to seeing rare treasures would unavoidably take a second look at novelty items.

When Xiao Yan was young, he had often heard his mother talk about Yan Yuqing, saying that she was different from the other young ladies of the soldier race. When she had the chance to return to the capital, she would naturally pay more attention to her than anyone else. After these few days of close contact, he realized that not only was she interested in the jewelry business, but her actions had also given him quite a bit of shock.

The empress's birthday was coming up, and she was going to be married to Xuanyuan Jue.

When Xiao Yan thought of this, a strange feeling surged up in his heart, causing him to hurriedly suppress it again.
