Morong Gan got Hao Pingguan to prepare the ingredients on the second day. He was busy working under the grape arbor himself, but of course, this matter had to be kept a secret from Bai Qianfan. He would not do it when she came to Huailin Pavilion, it would be better if he gave her a surprise later.
The design was his own, with a chair at the bottom, with wings on both sides and some beautiful feathers on the sides. If he could use the Peacock Plume, that would be even better. He pondered whether he should go to Animal Husbandry Garden and ask for some feathers from the peacock. Pulling a few should not be difficult.
The ropes on both sides of the road were woven into flower ribbons. They were like a giant bird resting in the middle of a flower, imagining a little girl with a treasure bun sitting on the swing, her big eyes blinking, her small mouth slightly tilted upwards, giving off an indescribably cute vibe.
So what if he said it, he turned around and went straight to the Animal Husbandry Garden.
Eunuch liked to stoop down and smile when he sees people. Seeing that it was the Prince Chu, he became even shorter and smiled to his heart's content, "Prince Chu is here to pay respects, this servant has been far from welcome and deserves to die a thousand times for it."
Prince Chu snorted from his nose, "Get up, this king came here to ask for an official's favor."
"Aiyo, Your Highness, you're too polite. How could I deserve a favor from you?" If you have anything to say, just say it. This servant will not refuse even if I die. "
Morong Gan did not waste any words and went straight to the point, "Give me some Peacock Plume."
Zheng Qiuqi, "... What does Your Highness want the Peacock Plume for? "
Morong Gan's face stiffened, "This is this king's business, you talk too much!"
There is no one who isn't afraid of Prince Chu's evil reputation. Zheng Qiuqi immediately knelt on the ground and said, "Prince, please calm your anger. "This servant deserves to die …"
"Get up," Morong Gan said as he glanced at him, "Since you've done the errand for me, I will let you off."
Zheng Qiuqi stood up, "I wonder how many feathers Your Highness wants?"
Morong Gan thought for a while, "How many feathers does a peacock have?"
"About two hundred."
"That's all." Morong Gan said, "It shouldn't be hard for every peacock to pull up a bit."
Zheng Qiuqi said, "Your highness, if you want a peacock, it will be easy. I will send someone to deliver it to your residence, and then write a letter and submit it to you. As long as you have so many feathers and so many people, your servant will not be able to fulfill your wish. These peacocks were all liked by the empress dowager, and were always meticulously waiting upon them. Not to mention plucking a few, even if they were missing a single peacock, it would still be very obvious. It's not that this servant won't give it to the prince, it's just that … "Why don't you just carry one back? Whether it's killing or cutting it up, you can decide for yourself."
Killing a peacock for a little bit of feather was indeed a little inappropriate. Moreover, it was an imperial peacock from the Animal Husbandry Garden that could not be killed easily, as its breed was too precious. He recalled that day when she entered the palace, Bai Qianfan was rather interested in those cranes. Maybe she also liked peacocks.
"Mm, that's fine too. Bring me to pick a good one."
"De Le," Zheng Qiuqi led him to the Peacock Plains.
There were many peacocks here, many of them were blue peacocks, there were green peacocks and white peacocks, in terms of beauty, there was the most precious green peacock, there was only one peacock in the whole garden, but Morong Gan had taken a fancy to it and pointed at it, "It's that one."
Zheng Qiuqi complained incessantly, as he pushed his face that was full of smiles, "Your Highness, this is only for the Noble Consort's Empress, why don't you change it?"
Morong Gan laughed, "This king took it out for my wangfei to play with. Since Noble Consort is the blood sister of my wangfei, I believe I won't mind it. Pack it properly and come back with me to my residence."
Zheng Qiuqi wanted to find some time to deliver a letter to the palace. He sullenly said, "My prince, this servant dares to give this green peacock to my prince. If the Noble Consort Empress blames me, my prince will definitely protect this servant's life."
"What's there to be afraid of? I have everything." Morong Gan waved his hand disapprovingly, "Go on, I'm waiting."
Zheng Qiuqi had no choice but to capture the peacock and send it to the Prince Chu Palace.
Morong Gan rode his horse and slowly followed the boxes they were transporting. Thinking about how happy Bai Qianfan was to see the peacock, she couldn't help but to shake her head.
Jia Tong whispered to Ning Jiu from behind: "This time, Your Highness and the Imperial Consort Bai have become enemies."
Ning Jiu was the same as the Prince Chu, he had a nonchalant expression on his face, "Your highness is not afraid of her."
, do you think that the prince really loves her as if she was his own sister? If you don't want her to become his sworn brother, we can become his brother-in-law, and we can also walk on the streets together. "
Ning Jiu looked at him as if he was looking at a fool, and slowly withdrew his gaze, as if he was too lazy to even speak.
Jia Tong was still blabbering, "Your highness is too pitiful, I was born in Tian Jia, my family members are not even close, and now that I have a little girl, it makes my heart ache for me. When I was at home, I even hit my little sister once, but now that I think about it, I regret it so much that she did not receive any love from my family, so when I marry her, I can only hope that I can go back to my family and buy two sets of good silk to make clothes to compensate her."
Ning Jiu looked at him, wanted to say something but hesitated. In the entire residence, only Prince Chu and this foolish guard could not understand.
, the spectator, was also confused. He was even a first-class bodyguard, and just by looking at his strength, he felt ashamed for.
After returning to the manor, Morong Gan changed from his usual reserved attitude and asked Hao Pingguan to go to the Moon Reaching Pavilion to invite the princess over.
When Bai Qianfan heard that she had brought back a peacock, he jumped in joy. She still had the personality of a child, so she ran off immediately while Yue Xiang chased after her, "Princess, slow down, be careful of falling down."
Bai Qianfan said loudly as she ran: "It's fine, you guys stay slow, don't fall."
Yue Xiang found it funny, following such an unorthodox master was also a joy to him, but worrying about it. Serving a marquis was bad, her highness was blaming them, and she had to concentrate on serving a marquis. The wangfei was very clever, if she wanted to go out, they would often not be able to follow her, and could only slowly get used to it.
Bai Qianfan dived into the Huailin Pavilion and asked from afar, "Where is the peacock? "Where is it?"
Seeing her run in recklessly, Morong Gan was drenched in sweat. He could not help but frown: "Why are you running, are you trying to serve the master like this?" As he said this, he pulled her in front of him and used a towel to wipe her sweat. "It's such a hot day, don't run away from now on. Be careful of the heat stroke. If you pass out, you'll suffer."
Bai Qianfan stood there obediently without moving, raising her small face and smiling at him, "I want to see the peacock really quickly."
He brought the peacock back with him, he wanted to quickly see the peacock because he wanted to see him. Morong Gan thought that he did, but the little girl had missed him.
