Chapter 3 — Shining Pearl

But after Wen Tri Dao heard, he only sent someone to deliver one sentence: 【If you want to go, go, if you don't want to go, refuse.】 I asked the courier: "Do you have anything else to say?" The maid said: "Sir, the second lady of the Tham family doesn't need to worry about her reputation now." I laughed. Still going in the end. There are a few old debts, but I still have to see them reopen with my own eyes. The apricot blossoms in the Palace of the Five Princes bloom very beautifully. Red apricot covers the water column. Tieu Thua Canh stood in the hallway to welcome us, wearing a jade-colored plainclothes, gentle eyes, still the same look that made people easily let down their guard like the first time they met in their previous life. He looked at Tham Minh Xu first. "Lady Tham also came today." Tham Minh Xu bowed. "Your Majesty, please, don't dare not come." Tieu Thua Canh looked at me again. His eyes were a bit more searching than on the day of the birthday party. "Second Miss Shen." "I heard that Wen Thai gave you a lot of organs." I nodded. "Yes." "You like those things?" "Like." He smiled a bit. "I really can't see it." I didn't answer. In his previous life, he also said similar things. I can't see that she still knows these things. Even if she doesn't see it, she knows how to hide her thoughts. I didn't see her being so tasteless. He said he didn't see it, but in reality it was because he had never really looked. In just a few moments, Tieu Thua Canh ordered someone to bring in an office box. The box is made of ebony wood, the four sides are inlaid with copper, the lock has no holes. "This is a clever item that this king recently acquired." "I heard that the two ladies are very clever, so why not try it." Tham Minh Xu's eyes lit up slightly. Her biggest fear is that no one will give her a chance. I looked at the organ box again, my fingertips were a bit cold. I had seen this box in my previous life. Later, Tieu Thua Canh brought me the solution. I can't solve it. He smiled and said it was okay, saying that women didn't need to be too smart. Later, Tham Minh Xu went to the palace to visit and only used half a cup of tea to solve the problem. Tieu Thua Canh looked at her and was stunned for a long time. That night, for the first time, he did not come to my hospital. In this life, this box appeared earlier. Tham Minh Xu stepped forward. Her fingertips were flexible, gently caressing the four corners of the box, then pressing a few copper lines. The organ box made two light echoes. But not open. Her eyebrows furrowed slightly. Tieu Thua Canh smiled again and said: "No rush." "Miss Shen, just take your time." Tham Minh Xu became even more focused. She tried seven or eight times, but the box still wouldn't open. We know why. This box does not have to be opened by finding an underground latch. The pin is actually at the bottom. You have to turn it over and first loosen the inner spring, then press the ridge on the side. Tham Minh Xu wanted to win so much, but refused to turn the box over. Because flipping boxes at a banquet doesn't look elegant enough. Tieu Thua Canh looked at me. "Second Miss Shen, do you want to try?" I stepped forward. Not established
i.e. touch. Just looked at that box. "The goddess can't solve it." Tieu Thua Canh frowned. "You haven't tried it yet." I lowered my eyes. "If the prince wants to open it, you shouldn't let me and my sister try." "You should find a craftsman." Tham Minh Xu's face stiffened. "You are saying that I am not as good as a craftsman?" I looked at her. "Why do you always hear the word useful as an insult?" Tieu Thua Canh was stunned. I continued to say: "The copper pattern at the bottom of this box is worn away, obviously it is often turned upside down." "If you really want to open it, turn it over and try it again and you will know." Tham Minh Xu's face finally changed. Tieu Thua Canh turned the box upside down and pressed it in the order I said. Clack. The box opens. Inside is a white jade chess piece. Tieu Thua Canh looked at the box and didn't say a word for a long time. Tham Minh Xu's hand slowly withdrew into his sleeve. I bowed. "The goddess only knows how to look at the wear marks." "It's not considered a clever mind." Tieu Thua Canh's eyes looking at me changed again. That kind of scrutiny emerged again. It was like he suddenly discovered that the person he let down at the birthday party had another key in his hand. There is not even half joy in my heart. Just bored. After returning to the palace, Tham Minh Xu finally couldn't bear it and opened his mouth in the carriage: "Obviously you can open it, why don't you open it yourself?" I said: "Because it's not my box." She laughed coldly. "Now that you have Deputy Wen's back to back you, of course you despise the things of the Royal Palace." I looked at her. "If you like it, go get it yourself." Her face was pale white. Actually, she saw it too. The way Tieu Thua Canh looked at me today was no longer as cold as when he came. This annoyed her more than not being able to open the box. 5. On the day the Wen family came to pray, in front of the Tham palace were full of carriages. Wen Zhi Dao came personally. He did not wear official robes, only wore a white long dress, following behind the elders and administrators of the Wen family. The bride price is not lavish, but every item has a background. At the top is a set of stamped copies of Bach Cong Cuu Pho.
