After the young crown prince consort took out those two peaches, everyone smelled a fragrance wafting through the entire hall, and they all gulped uncontrollably.

  With their eyes glued to the peaches, they were unable to turn their heads away.

  The twelfth prince, in particular, bolted up. “Eldest Sister-in-Law! This is such a gigantic peach!”


  Mo Lian facepalmed in exasperation before sending him a glare. “Shut up.”


  The twelfth prince pursed his lips aggrievedly and plopped down pitifully. He muttered, “Eldest Sister-in-Law, Yu’er will have his birthday soon too!”


  Everyone: “…”


  The little stoic glanced at him before looking again at the junior manager eunuch who was running back to her.

  Qiao Mu beckoned toward the junior eunuch.

  The junior eunuch quickly ran over and bowed slightly while saying with a smile, “Crown Prince Consort.”


  Subsequently, the little stoic expressionlessly turned over her petite hand, and she tossed two white small porcelain bottles plus one small jar into the junior eunuch’s hands. “For Grandmother.”


  The old queen dowager was beaming widely as she was examining the big peaches of immortality in her arms. She quickly lifted her head upon hearing Qiao Mu and looked at the two small porcelain bottles and one small jar that the junior eunuch was bringing to her.

  The queen dowager was moved, and she asked curiously with a smile, “What is this, my granddaughter-in-law.”


  “Three prolongation pills.”


  Everyone: !

  “One level-15 mystic breakthrough pill.”


  Everyone: “…”


  “And a case of beautifying cream.”


  The entire hall once again descended into dead silence.

  There truly wasn’t anyone who spoke up this time. Everyone merely sat there quietly as they stared at this stoic-faced young crown prince consort as if she were an alien from an outer star domain.

  “Impossible!” Yi’an could barely suppress her bellyful of anger. She looked up, unable to resist giving the crown prince consort a look of ridicule.

  “Could it be that you want to tell everyone that you are a pill alchemist?”


  “To say nothing of that beautifying cream, which I have never heard of. There is no one in the entire Sikong Planet who can refine something like a level-15 mystic breakthrough pill. Do not think that I do not understand medicinal materials just because I do not know how to refine pills. I heard that refining level-15 mystic breakthrough pills requires a necessary ingredient—the fire magic horn leaf—which has simply long gone extinct on Sikong Planet.”


  As she spoke, she once again sneered at the stoic face. “Without the fire magic horn leaf, what did you use to refine a level-15 mystic breakthrough pill.”


  That level-15 mystic breakthrough pill was Long Chuyun’s handiwork. She was merely regifting it to the queen dowager.

  However, the lackadaisical little stoic who loathed to explain herself naturally was not going to waste her breath on her. Qiao Mu cast her a glance before turning around and trotting back to her seat next to the crown prince.

  Everyone: “…”


  Duan Yue was incredibly amused upon hearing Commandery Princess Yi’an trying to expose something with all her might. She rebuked the crown prince consort, “The fire magic horn leaf is the key ingredient of creating the level-15 mystic breakthrough pill. It can be said that the level-15 mystic breakthrough pill cannot be created without this earth-rank medicinal material. Your Majesty the Queen Dowager should be prudent in consuming it, in case…”


  She purposefully paused in saying the rest, leaving enough space for the imagination.

  But who didn’t know that her following words would definitely be “in case you consume a fake pill and injure your body on top of failing to break through.”


  Upon hearing this, the little stoic knitted her brows before abruptly taking out a stack of wrinkled papers from her inner world.

  Everyone looked at her in bafflement. As the crown prince was sitting right next to her, he could see the paper clearly, and his mouth involuntarily twitched.
