Long Xuanmo's face was glum, his pupils brimming with annoyance and jealousy as his gaze, chilling and intense, was fixed on the two small hands on Yang Chaoyi's arm, wishing he could stride forward and pry them off. He felt a stinging pain in his eyes as envy churned within him and a surge of anger rushed from his heart to his brain.

Ah Jiu was his, how could she be so intimate with another man? Not even Ah Jiu's father would be acceptable! Especially after Ah Jiu had spoken those words, he was nearly driven to madness by jealousy.

His stare was too focused and sharp, and of course Yang Chaoyi quickly felt it. Following his instincts, he glanced at Long Xuanmo, seeing a look so menacing as if he was ready to devour someone, focusing constantly on his arm. He immediately realized what was happening.

Initially wanting to pull away his arm, but then, thinking of something else, he instead lifted his hand to gently stroke his beloved daughter's hair, "Jiujiu is indeed the most powerful!" While saying this, he cast a smug look at Long Xuanmo.

Even though you're a prince, Jiujiu is my daughter. Whether you get to pursue my daughter depends on whether I agree, hmph!

For the love of his daughter, Yang Chaoyi did not care about Long Xuanmo's status and was clearly prepared to confront him.

As if he understood Yang Chaoyi's provocation, Long Xuanmo's already dark expression grew even colder, his beautiful lips pressed tightly into a straight line, his dark eyes inscrutable. Only considering that Yang Chaoyi was Ah Jiu's real father, he forced himself to suppress the rage in his heart and did not order for Yang Chaoyi to be dragged out and killed.

"With a powerful grandfather comes a powerful father, and then there's a powerful me!" Yang Mengchen raised her smiling face, coquettish, utterly oblivious to Long Xuanmo's overturned jar of vinegar.

Yang Chaoyi's smile was so wide it could hardly be contained, "Everything Jiujiu says is right!" He felt extremely fortunate and proud to have such an affectionate and intelligent daughter in his life!

"Of course!" Yang Mengchen arrogantly tilted her head with pride.

Yang Chaoyi laughed heartily with affection, and everyone else also laughed, showering praise on both Yang Mengchen and the Yang family.

Only Long Xuanmo was in an exceptionally gloomy and heavy-hearted mood, his gaze lingering on Yang Mengchen who was ignoring him, his dark eyes filled with a sense of melancholy and jealousy.

Mo Yun and others shook their heads in sympathy for Long Xuanmo, the prince's journey to win his wife's affection was indeed a long one.

"Hai Tang, bring me the alum solution we prepared earlier."

After receiving a small bottle of alum solution from Hai Tang, Yang Mengchen instructed a worker to bring a small piece of Ceramic Glaze and place it on the table. Then, using a clean brush dipped in the alum solution, she coated one side of it. Once the alum solution had dried, she had Hai Tang and Qing Qing turn the Ceramic Glaze over.

The onlookers exclaimed in surprise, "Good heavens! What is this?"

For they saw their own images clearly reflected in the Ceramic Glaze, with those standing closer having even the hairs on their face in sharp detail, much clearer than any bronze mirror at home, or even clear water by many times.

"Jiujiu, this…" Yang Chaoyi's eyes widened as he looked back and forth between the Ceramic Glaze and his daughter.

Sister Jin, who had been by the Empress Dowager's side for nearly twenty years and had seen many rare treasures, also couldn't help but exclaim repeatedly, "It's simply miraculous!"

Deep inside, Long Xuanmo was extremely shocked, "Is this a mirror?"

He had once inadvertently heard someone mention that Qing'an Country had a kind of mirror made of Ceramic Glaze, clearer than a bronze mirror by a thousand times, but since the Qing'an Country was separated by vast oceans and the mirrors were fragile, they could not be transported to the four nations, so all he had was hearsay and had never seen it before.

Today, however, Ah Jiu had actually made a mirror, which was truly astounding. Of course, he also saw the immense profit potential it contained.

"Prince is indeed well-informed!" Yang Mengchen smiled and nodded, "This is indeed a mirror. Big Brother Luo has traveled far and wide, and he happened to hear about an object called a mirror. So, he specifically went to look into it but couldn't find out how to make it. Big Brother Luo experimented many times before he finally succeeded and told me about it.

He also mentioned that mercury could be used."
