Perhaps it was because someone was watching her, or perhaps it was because she was used to doing all these, the embroidery lady's movements were quick.

Although there was only one color, it did not appear monotonous. Under the light of the lamp, layer upon layer of lights illuminated it. It was indescribably beautiful.

"Very good." Ji Yunkai accepted it, and after looking at it carefully, she could not find any problems, "Reward."

"It's done. This wangfei will reward you handsomely." Ji Yunkai was never a stingy person. "All of you are the same. If you do well, or if you have a better idea, you can take it out.

There would always be brave men under the heavy appreciation. After the bold embroidery nun, another embroidery lady made a bright red peony flower. Under the candlelight, it was incomparably beautiful, especially with the flower's heart, so realistic that people couldn't help but touch it with their hands to confirm whether it was real or fake.

"Very good." Ji Yunkai praised once again, and at the same time, said loudly: "Reward!"

"Thank you, wangfei." The embroidery lady had a joyous expression as she held the red peony in her hands and gave a silly smile.

The two of them could be considered the most outstanding amongst the group, following that, more and more people also completed it. Although it was similarly exquisite, it lacked the peony and Furong's beauty, which Ji Yunkai also rewarded, only a little less.

The success of the 22 girls made everyone understand that the gauze could be used to make silk flowers, and it was even prettier than real flowers.

"Warm Winter, arrange for these twenty-two young ladies to teach the young ladies in their respective rooms. "Tonight, I've worked hard all night to learn how to make silk flowers. Tomorrow, I'll do the most and the best, and then I'll reward everyone. As for the slowest one?" Ji Yunkai swept her eyes across the twenty-two young ladies: "If there's a reward, there must be a punishment. The worst and slowest ten people will receive the punishment they deserve.

"Your servant (commoner) heard you." Amongst the twenty-two girls, there were embroidery ladies and female servants from the Inner Palace. All of them were startled upon hearing Ji Yunkai's words, and no one dared to speak anymore.

"Don't cause trouble. If someone asks you, don't hide anything from them. If everyone does a good job, then this wangfei will also reward you handsomely." Ji Yunkai knew that the people at this time, the people who had mastered a set of skills, were all held in their hands, unwilling to let others learn from them.

"This servant understands." No matter if it was the embroidery woman or the female servant, they were both people at the lowest level. Even if they were given a hundred guts, they would still not dare to go against Ji Yunkai, let alone the rewards.

Of course, there were other spies among them, but they would not have the chance to go out, much less spread the news.

"Winterpeak, I'll leave this to you. I want to see enough silk flowers by noon tomorrow. " The matter of the silk flowers was easy to handle. What was difficult was the melon fruits needed for the palace feast.

Ji Yunkai thought about it for an entire afternoon, but she still could not think of a substitute for a melon fruit.

"Thank you, wangfei. Don't worry, I'll definitely keep an eye on you." Warm Winter understood the importance of this matter and hurriedly replied.

"I don't have to worry about you doing things." It was not only Warm Winter, Ji Yunkai had also left the three servants behind so that they could help Warm Winter.

After explaining everything, Ji Yunkai left with her personal guards.

It was already midnight, so other than the suffocating darkness, the only thing that remained in the world was a bone-chilling coldness. Even while sitting in the carriage, and even with enough braziers placed in the carriage, Ji Yunkai still felt cold.

"Xiao Jiu'an, are you really not coming back?" Tightly pulling the cape tighter, Ji Yunkai leaned on the carriage, his red lips opened slightly without any interest.

Only at this moment, when there was no one around, did she dare to show her weakness.

Initially, she was extremely confident that Xiao Jiu'an would definitely return. She would definitely return to the capital after the war, because she was in the capital.

But now?

He did not manage to obtain any news at all. There were no news about Xiao Jiu'an from the hidden guards or personal guards, and Xiao Shaorong had even told her that Xiao Jiu'an was still in Yanbei at this time. No sign of coming back.

She didn't care whether Xiao Jiu'an returned during the Lantern Festival or after it, nor did she care about losing to the emperor. What she cared about was whether Xiao Jiu'an cared or not.

How busy was Xiao Jiu'an to only send her a letter with six words after arriving in Yanbei?

How busy was Xiao Jiu'an to not write a letter to her after Beichen fled after being defeated? Didn't he want to tell her the current situation?

She was the Prince Yanbei's Wife, her wife, and the mistress of the Prince Yanbei's Mansion. In the end, she wanted to hear news of Yanbei's great victory from someone else's mouth and find out about Xiao Jiu'an's movements. She truly felt sarcastic just thinking about it.

She knew that after Xiao Jiu'an returned to Yanbei, she had a lot of things to do, but she didn't even have the time to write her a letter?

In Xiao Jiu'an's heart, who was she?

Was it a pet he teased in his free time, or was it a prop he used to confuse the Emperor by feigning affection?

Xiao Jiu'an had spent a lot of money for her, wiped out the entire Devil Sect for her, and done a lot for her, to the point where the whole world knew that Xiao Jiu'an cared about her, a lot …

Even the Emperor would not suspect that she was being held hostage in the capital.
