Chapter 882: Chapter 882: The Coronation Ceremony
Doesn’t she know that the biggest obstacle to this marriage isn’t herself, but the Imperial Palace!
Although Prince Jing couldn’t stand that Sikong Mo was so much older than Ye Jiu, if Ye Jiu truly loved him to the point of desperation, he really couldn’t bring himself to break them up.
However, their marriage, father wouldn’t agree, and that’s the hardest part for Prince Jing.
Ye Jiu wasn’t trying to fool Prince Jing; she was genuinely tired.
Yet, when she returned to her room and lay on the bed, she couldn’t fall asleep.
Too many things happened today, leaving her physically and mentally exhausted.
Ye Jiu entered the space just as Luo Ranran sent a message, "Sister, my wedding is tomorrow. Of course, I know you can’t come, but don’t forget the gift!"
Ye Jiu rolled her eyes but still selected a decent gift to send over.
In three and a half years, Luo Ranran had long paid off her massive debts, became a business tycoon, and successfully snagged a rich husband.
And there’s Cha; with all the good stuff he got from her, he won his wife’s favor and even had several litters of kids. Every time, Ye Jiu routinely sent a piece of Spiritual Beast Meat left by Yuan Jun Taoist, which might have enhanced their physique, so Cha’s pups all successfully evolved into human forms.
As for Yuan Jun Taoist, he has been in seclusion for a long time. With less than a century left in her life, Ye Jiu never hoped to see him again, but she was genuinely grateful to the old Taoist.
Ye Jiu said directly to La Sike, "Help me prepare some medicine."
"For what purpose?" Just in time, La Sike was also there.
Ye Jiu thought about the Princess Consort’s health and explained the specifics.
Then, La Sike replied, "Coughs and colds can be caused by many things, especially for someone with a long-term health condition. You shouldn’t use medicine casually. It’s best to collect some blood for me; that’s the safest way."
Ye Jiu: "I’ll get you the blood tomorrow."
La Sike: "No problem, no need to pay for the medicine, just give me some food, or a bit of Spiritual Beast Meat would be fine."
La Sike then sent a praying hand gesture, making Ye Jiu laugh.
However, after giving him some food, Ye Jiu also sent over a piece of Spiritual Beast Meat.
Once people have tasted this stuff, they all crave it. Even though Yuan Jun Taoist gave her quite a bit, it can’t withstand such consumption.
So, Ye Jiu resolved that next time, regardless of who asks, she couldn’t give it away so casually anymore.
But she forgot that she always thought this way, yet every next time, she would inevitably forget again.
After chatting with La Sike, Ye Jiu noticed a message from Suishang.
Since Ye Jiu reported him, Suishang suffered a lot.
Later on, he owed Ye Jiu quite a bit, which he only recently paid off.
Since then, every time he made a deal with Ye Jiu, he would first give money without a word, then discuss the goods.
This time was no different.
However, Ye Jiu didn’t even look at the several big boxes Suishang sent; she just piled them in the storage compartment below.
When you’re poor, you long for money, but once you have money, you realize you only eat three meals a day and wear one set of clothes. The rest can only pile up nearby, and some gold and jewels never even meet their owner.
Suishang: "Sis, I’m having my enthronement ceremony in three days and planning to give benefits to the people. I don’t need anything else but bring more food."
