354 Chapter 354 Gift for Emperor
354 Chapter 354 “Gift for Emperor“
Another round of problem is coming soon!
This time it was the moment for guests to gave the emperor a present. Starting from the lowest rank minister, one by one gave the emperor a gift and the emperor would directly opened it right there.
This was the moment that Duan Hui Nan had been waiting for. She had prepared a very good gift for her father and she wanted to show off! Not only that she was sure because Li Shi Ying was invited late, she mustn’t have prepared a good gift.
As a translator if her gift wasn’t that good wouldn’t that made Li Shi Ying be seen as a stingy girl? That would damage her reputation!
After all the people inside the room giving their gift, it was Duan Hui Nan and Duan Hu Yan turn to ’show off’ their gift to their father.
"Father! We get this for you" Duan Hui Yan said cheerfully as she opened up a box with the present she and Duan Hu Yan had prepared.
The moment the present was revealed, all the people in this room except Li Shi Ying and Chen, gasp in shock.
"T-that...that is 1000 years old ginseng! a very rare herb that only grow in Youdu Mountain!" One of an alchemist inside the room, stood up from his seat after he saw what the present was.
1000 years old ginseng was indeed a very rare herb that can only be found in a place where scared beast ruled. In this country only Youdu Mountain had it.
But, getting this herb was so difficult even for Royal family as no adventurer or cultivator would willingly sold this ginseng. This 1000 years old ginseng could raise your strength for 2 whole rank! That’s why this ginseng was very valuable.
As to how these Duan siblings got it, they were just lucky to spot it at the fourth level and actually this was the reason why they were being chased by the three big divine beasts.
It was because they stole this ginseng!
"Oh such a wonderful gift! my children are the best" the emperor clearly looked happy and proud with what his children gift him.
What a filial children! So they went to the Youdu Mountain that day to search for this ginseng!
All the people in the room felt envious that the emperor had such filial children. They sang praises for the emperor because he had two very filial children.
This of course made the emperor mood rise. He was losing face earlier because he offended Li Shi Ying but now he regain his pride again after his two children gave him this gift!
"Ah our gift is really couldn’t be compared to Lady Li gift! She is a translator that come from the Zui Qiang continent, our present really can’t be compared to hers" After the rain of praises to the emperor, to act humble, Duan Hui Nan Intentionally mentioned Li Shi Ying name.
This not only could made her look humble and kind but also could made people were looking forward to seeing Li Shi Ying gift for the emperor!
When Duan Hui Nan mentioned Li Shi Ying name, all people in the room suddenly look at her with expectant eyes.
Right! that girl is a translator so the gift she prepared must be superb as well!
Looking at the people who were already expecting things from her, Li Shi Ying immediately know that this was another vicious plan of Duan Hui Nan.
Duan Hui Nan knew for sure that she was given the invitation a night before the banquet so could there be enough time to prepare a lavish gift? Of course not even if she was a translator.
Maybe a translator had a lot of money but it was a question whether they had a lot of good treasures too. Meanwhile getting good treasure in a day even if you have so much money, was impossible.
This was why Duan Hui Nan look happy to see the downfall of Li Shi Ying. The more people looking up to her, the more it would be embarrassing when she couldn’t met their expectations.
Really...vicious!
Chen who saw the situation also thought the same as Li Shi Ying but from what he knew, Li Shi Ying didn’t prepare any gift!
"Miss..." Chen was about to do something about this situation. He could just took out any treasure he had inside his spatial ring but Li Shi Ying shook her head.
"Don’t worry how could I haven’t prepare for this? I already prepare a gift" Li Shi Ying smile and stood up from her seat. She silently took out a jar from her spatial ring before she slowly approached the emperor.
"Greetings to your majesty, may your majesty live a long and prosperous life" Li Shi Ying with a slight bow, gave the emperor a jar.
This jar looked old and normal so when the people inside the room saw this, they began to questioned what was inside the jar.
Wouldn’t the jar look too normal for a treasure? If it was wine...then nothing could amaze them. If it was a herb, it wouldn’t be contained inside a jar!
Just what was inside it? Could it rival the 1000 years old ginseng the Duan siblings gave?
