Chapter 1475: You Have to Be HarmoniousEditor: Henyee Translations
The results were out. As the magnifying glass was meant for the emperor, although everyone was curious, they did not dare to touch it. They could only watch with their eyes.
On the other hand, many people had touched Duke Xu’s snuff bottle.
Duke Xu was furious, but he could not lose his temper casually. After all, everyone present was someone with status. It was not good to fall out with them and make him look petty.
Seeing that it was getting late, Yi Zilan got someone to serve the dishes and finished lunch first.
After everyone ate and drank their fill and watched the song and dance, the Treasure Appraisal Conference ended.
Gu Yundong was a little bored. How was this an appraisal convention? It was just a show-off.𝙛𝒓𝒆𝙚𝒘𝒆𝓫𝙣𝓸𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝓶
If it wasn’t for the fact that Yi Zilan didn’t know much about this magnifying glass, he would probably have been the one to brag the most throughout.
Now that it was finally over, Gu Yundong followed him out of the restaurant.
Yi Zilan held the box carefully and touched it lovingly.
Before he parted ways with Gu Yundong at the door, he could not help but ask her, "Are you really giving it to me just like that?"
"We asked you to give it to the emperor," Shao Qingyuan corrected him.
Yi Zilan glared at him fiercely.
Gu Yundong hurriedly reminded him, "Your Highness, you’re good friends. You have to be harmonious. Duke Xu is still watching over there."
Yi Zilan instantly retracted his expression and snorted coldly. He ignored Shao Qingyuan and only said to Gu Yundong, "The contract between us is no longer valid. You took out a magnifying glass and helped me win the Treasure Appraisal Conference. I won’t be calculative about Zhang Yingyue in the future. Also..."
As he spoke, he suddenly paused and coughed lightly. He said uncomfortably, "Although you had other motives for what you said at the Treasure Appraisal Conference just now, I still owe you a favor. If you need help in the future, just come to me."
Gu Yundong raised her eyebrows. "Since Your Highness has said so, I also have a few words to say to Your Highness."
"What?"
Gu Yundong looked around and lowered her voice.
Then, she took a piece of paper from Shao Qingyuan and handed it over.
Yi Zilan looked at her in shock and opened the paper. When she saw the words written on it, her eyes were filled with shock.
"You..."
"Your Highness still has to enter the palace, right? I’ll take my leave now."
Yi Zilan’s gaze became even more complicated. She looked at Gu Yundong and then at Shao Qingyuan. After a while, she suddenly shook her head and sighed. "You’re smarter than Shao Qingyuan. You know how to give in and improve your relationship. If Shao Qingyuan was half as sensible as you, I wouldn’t have always targeted him."
Although he said that, after thinking about it, Yi Zilan suddenly shivered. "Forget it. If Shao Qingyuan puts in a good word for me like you, I will look down on him too."
Gu Yundong: "..." You’ve said all the good things and bad things. What else do you want? Also, when did she give in? This man feels a little too good about himself.
She pulled Shao Qingyuan and turned to leave, leaving Yi Zilan to be smug.
Yi Zilan snorted lightly. He suddenly tightened his grip on the piece of paper in his hand.
When he turned around and saw Duke Xu walking over, he quickly put away the note.
However, Duke Xu still saw that action. Duke Xu raised his eyebrows slightly. "Your Highness is very glorious today."
"Not at all, not at all. I just had the help of a benefactor." He returned what he had said.
Duke Xu’s face stiffened slightly.
Yi Zilan had already walked past him. "I still have to enter the palace. Excuse me."
Duke Xu looked at his carriage and then turned to look at Shao Qingyuan’s carriage. He felt a little regretful. Shao Qingyuan’s future was probably limitless.
