Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

After eating, Chu Qingzhi pulled Tang Jinghong to the streets to buy gifts.

Wu Yaqing followed Chu Qingzhi everywhere she went. However, although this princess was not very reliable, she had a good taste and the items she chose were all good quality. Moreover, she knew what gifts to buy just from knowing the person’s personality. She had helped Chu Qingzhi a lot in this regard.

After buying gifts for everyone, the three of them walked back. Wu Yaqing asked, “Qingzhi, can I stay at your house when I go to the capital?” Afraid that Chu Qingzhi would not agree, she quickly said, “I can give you money, a lot.”

Chu Qingzhi recalled that the princess was rich, so she teased, “Then how much do you plan to give?”

Wu Yaqing thought for a moment and gestured with a finger. “How about I give your family a hundred taels a day?”

Seeing that Chu Qingzhi did not have any reaction, she hurriedly said, “200 taels? 300 taels?”

It wasn’t that Chu Qingzhi didn’t react, but she was surprised by the fact that the princess treated money like dirt.

Wu Yaqing was really a rich woman. The entire Chu family needed to sell ice cream bars for a day to earn 100 taels, but Wu Yaqing was willing to pay 100 taels just to stay in their house.

“Princess, 1 can let you stay in my house, but my house is in the village. There are no palace maids or guards, no silk or satin. You have to do everything yourself.”

“For example, cleaning the house and washing clothes. Sometimes my family will be too busy and you have to cook for yourself. Can you do it?”

Wu Yaqing said without thinking, “No problem. I’ve been living alone recently. There are no palace maids or guards, no silk. It doesn’t matter.”

Yun Hua was someone truly born with a golden spoon in her mouth. She was pampered by the queen. Could she really take sufferings? Chu Qingzhi expressed her doubts. “Since there’s no problem with you, there’s no problem with me either. However, I have to remind you some things first.”

Wu Yaqing said enthusiastically, “Go ahead.”

Chu Qingzhi said, “When you are in my house, you can’t mention your status as a princess. You can’t be arrogant and have to do everything yourself. You can’t wear your princess’s accessories or clothes. Otherwise, you’ll cause trouble.” “I’ll introduce you to my family as a friend I made in the northern border and tell them that you are here to travel and will temporarily stay with us.”

“As for the food and accommodation fee, you can pay us one tael a day, what do you think?”

Wu Yaqing agreed readily. “No problem. I agree. But isn’t one tael too little?”

Chu Qingzhi said, “It’s not little. It’s enough for you to eat, drink, and have fun.” Wu Yaqing hesitated for a moment and said honestly, “How about ten taels?

You know that I don’t lack money. As my first friend, I wanted to give you some. We can spend it together.”

Chu Qingzhi looked at Princess Yun Hua, who was spending money like dirt, and thought to herself, Is this what it feels like to have a rich friend?

She did not want Yun Hua’s money, but she was very curious about how much Yun Hua planned to give her. “Princess, you said just now that you wanted to give me some money. How much do you plan to give me?”

Wu Yaqing raised a finger. “100,000 taels. If you think it’s not enough, I can give you a million. My private vault is filled with gold, jewelry, jade, and stacks of banknotes.”

Chu Qingzhi was speechless, and so was Tang Jinghong.

Chu Qingzhi felt that she had to remind her. “Princess, it’s hard to predict people’s hearts. Don’t tell people you are rich so easily. Otherwise, you’ll find yourself in trouble.”

Wu Yaqing nodded. “Qingzhi, I only told you this because I treat you as my best friend. Other than you, I wouldn’t tell anyone else.”

Chu Qingzhi was secretly relieved. The princess was a little reckless, but she was quite smart. “By the way, Princess, 1 have many family members. I might need you to share a room with someone else. Do you mind?”

Wu Yaqing was ok with it, but she was a little worried. “Are they easy to get along with?”

Chu Qingzhi said with some longing, “Of course, my second sister is gentle, my fourth sister is cautious, and my brothers have good personalities. You should like them very much when you see them.”

“I can’t wait,” Wu Yaqing said. “Qingzhi, to tell you the truth, I’ve lived alone in that cold palace since I was young. I’ve always wanted someone to accompany me.”

Chu Qingzhi patted Wu Yaqing’s shoulder and smiled. “When we reach home, your wish will be fulfilled immediately.”

“Qingzhi, I really want to go back with you as soon as possible.” Wu Yaqing was looking forward to the life Chu Qingzhi was talking about.

Chu Qingzhi raised her eyebrows and said, “We’ll set off tomorrow.”

Early in the morning, they left the city after eating.

Chu Qingzhi and Tang Jinghong were still riding the horses they brought from the capital. Last night, Li Yuanshao got someone to send them over. After being taken good care of during this period, they had become much fatter and stronger.

As soon as they left the city, someone blocked their way.

Ge Lihua walked up to them and bowed. “General Tang, Miss Chu, I want to travel to the capital. Can I go with you?”

Since it was a woman, Tang Jinghong thought he had to ask about Chu Qingzhi’s opinion. He turned his head and asked Chu Qingzhi, “Qingzhi, what do you think?”

Chu Qingzhi nodded and smiled. “Get on the horse. Let’s go.”

Ge Lihua could be considered a heroine among women. Her personality was not bad. She was worth befriending.

Ge Lihua cupped her hands and mounted her horse. “Giddyup!”

The six of them rushed towards the capital at full speed.

In the Chu Village.

Chu Eighth’s best friend, Chu Hongxiu, pointed at the eagle in the sky and ran over excitedly. “Chu Eighth, Chu Eighth, look, the eagle is flying over again.”

Chu Eighth ran out of the house and looked at the eagle in the sky. Then, she rushed into the house like a whirlwind. “Mother, Mother, Fifth Sister sent another letter.”

When Li Qingyu heard this, she hurriedly ran out of the house.

The eagle in the sky circled for a while before landing on the fence.

Li Qingyu took down the letter from the eagle’s leg and went to the kitchen to bring a basin over. There was a lot of chicken inside. She placed the basin in front of the eagle. “Eat. Thank you for sending us the letter.”

The eagle did not stand on ceremony and ate one piece of meat at a time. It was very tiring to fly back from the northern border.

Without asking, Li Qingyui knew that it was Chu Qingzhi who asked the eagle to send the letter back. It would take messengers more than ten days to deliver the letter. The eagle was faster. A few days was enough.

The first time the eagle sent a letter back, no one dared to approach it.

In everyone’s impression, eagles were a very ferocious bird. If it pecked you, you would definitely bleed non-stop.

It was only when Chu Qingning and Chu Qingshuang saw the letter tied to the eagle’s leg that they knew that the eagle was sending them a letter.

Now, they even dared to pat the eagle..
