Chapter 65 -65: Asking for Gifts (2)_1
Long Xuanmo was not discouraged, “The day after tomorrow, I will personally escort Uncle Shi and the others back to The Capital. Rest assured, I will take good care of them along the way.”

“Prince, what gifts would you like to prepare? Do the recipients have any special preferences or dislikes?” Yang Mengchen asked.
Although Big Brother Luo had already arranged for someone to escort Aunty Luo and the others, the journey to The Capital by carriage would still take four or five days, and she was indeed worried. She also prepared several kinds of poison, planning to hand them over to Third Brother Luo the day after tomorrow just in case.
Now that Long Xuanmo had taken the initiative to escort Aunty Luo and the others, it was certainly the best outcome. After all, the guards and Hidden Guard around Long Xuanmo were numerous and highly skilled in martial arts. With them there, Aunty Luo and the others were sure to be safe and sound.
Even though his goal was achieved, Long Xuanmo still felt depressed inside. Indeed, in the little girl’s heart, others were always more important than him, so much so that he had to rely on Uncle Shi’s mother to fulfill his wish. Yet, the little girl was stubborn and fearless. He was helpless against her will and did not have the heart to force her.
“My father often complains of neck and shoulder pain, swelling, the Royal Grandmother always eats a lot but is losing weight day by day, exhausted, and my mother has been sleeping poorly. See if there is anything you can do to alleviate their symptoms? As for the Eldest Imperial Sister, she loves plum blossoms the most, while the Sixth Imperial Sister and Tenth Imperial Brother, being children, have no particular favorites, and the Fifth Imperial Younger Brother, a gourmet, eats whatever is novel and unique.”
Yang Mengchen nodded lightly, “I will have the gifts ready before Your Highness departs.”
For the Emperor, the Empress Dowager, and the Empress, medicine can resolve their symptoms. With Sheng Xia on the way, I shall embroider two Brocade Fans adorned with plum blossoms for the Eldest Princess. I’ll sew two dolls for the Sixth Princess and Tenth Prince, and as for the Fifth Prince, two unique recipes should suffice.
Absorbed in thinking about the gifts, Yang Mengchen hadn’t reacted to the fact that Long Xuanmo was the Emperor’s most beloved and highly regarded legitimate son. Combined with movable-type printing and cement, the Emperor was too busy rewarding him to find any fault with him.
“As for me, I don’t have any particular favorites. Just embroider a few belts and purses for me. I’m not greedy—I’ll just take three belts and three purses.”
Raising an eyebrow, Yang Mengchen looked at Long Xuanmo unhappily said, “I’ve never heard of giving gifts to oneself before.”
She had already agreed to prepare gifts for the Emperor and the others, yet this fellow had the audacity to ask her to embroider belts and purses for him too, claiming he wasn’t being greedy while asking for three belts and three purses—wasn’t that still greed?
“Well, now you’ve heard it,” Long Xuanmo said calmly.
Yang Mengchen was frustrated, “Prince, if you want belts and purses, go find the embroiderers of the Bureau of Tailoring in the palace. I don’t have the time.”
“Their embroidery skills are too poor; I don’t like them,” Long Xuanmo declared confidently.
Before he knew the little girl, he had reluctantly used the embroidery from the Bureau of Tailoring. But now and in the future, all his clothes and accessories can only be made by the little girl’s own hands. Still, he could not rush this, he had to plan his moves carefully, to avoid frightening her.
Coldly, Yang Mengchen shot Long Xuanmo a glance and scoffed, “Didn’t you use them for sixteen years despite disliking them?”
“I heard you’ve been looking for a teacher?” Long Xuanmo said in a self-assured manner: “Ordinary teachers are unwilling to go to the countryside to teach, and I happen to know a few reputable teachers.”
You’ve got me there!
Yang Mengchen gritted her teeth and agreed to Long Xuanmo’s condition, as Uncle Xiao and Uncle Luo had spent a lot of effort recently with no success in inviting a teacher willing to teach in the village.
