3492 Sending Congratulatory Gifts
They didn’t say anything more after that. They turned around and walked back to their own rooms to rest.
After they left, Feng Jiu saw Leng Hua had returned and said, “Move the soft couch out of the room for me.”
“Yes, ” Leng Hua replied and went into the room.
“You should also go to rest! There’s no need to wait here.” She told Leng Shuang.
Leng Shuang nodded and then retreated.
Bai Qingcheng arrived and, seeing her sitting at the table, asked, “Master, are you alright?” Everyone in the manor was alarmed by the loud commotion earlier. Because she was worried that Hao’er, at such a young age, would be hurt by the airflow, she set up a protective barrier for him. The sleeping Hao’er was unaware of the situation with her Master.
“I’m fine. How is Hao’er?” Feng Jiu asked.
“He is sound asleep and hasn’t woken up yet.”
“Mm, that’s good. Keep a close eye on him. Go back! I don’t need anyone to take care of me here,” she said, signalling that Bai Qingcheng should also leave.
“Yes, ” Bai Qingcheng replied and then retreated.
Leng Hua moved the soft couch to the courtyard and carried a blanket along. As he looked at Feng Jiu, he asked, “Master, would you like to look at the stars here? Perhaps later, Qin Xin can play the guqin for you here.”
At this time, Qin Xin walked in with a bowl of calming soup, “Master, have some soup.” She placed the bowl in front of Feng Jiu.
Feng Jiu, with her chin resting in her hand, looked up at the sky. She didn’t say a word and seemed to be lost in thought.
Leng Hua signalled to Qin Xin, who then sat down, took out her guqin, and began playing. The pleasant sound reverberated throughout the courtyard, gradually easing the manor’s residents’ earlier worries and anxieties.
Feng Jiu’s frown gradually relaxed as she listened to the guqin. She drank the calming soup, lay down on the couch, and covered herself with the blanket. Instead of closing her eyes to sleep, she gazed at the sky, seemingly deep in thought.
Elsewhere, Xuanyuan Mo Ze’s brow creased slightly when he heard Gray Wolf’s report through the messaging jade token. He raised his gaze to the sky, knowing she wasn’t sleeping. He then sent a message to Feng Jiu through the messaging jade token.
That night, even though they were separated by vast distances, Feng Jiu shared her inner unease and concerns with him through the messaging jade token. Xuanyuan Mo Ze, with the words, “I am here,” comforted her anxious heart…
As the days went by and their wedding day approached, the Feng Manor became increasingly busy.
Early morning that day, many figures from various regions arrived at the Feng Manor one after another, carrying congratulatory gifts. Apart from the emperors from various lands sending their congratulations, the lords of various cities and the heads of sects and academies also sent gifts to celebrate Feng Jiu and Xuanyuan Mo Ze’s wedding.
The steward took the invitation cards at the manor’s door and announced loudly, “The headmaster of the Nebula Academy has arrived! He brings ten rare antique treasures, a pair of Eastern Sea night pearls, and a thousand-year-old purple ginseng…”
The steward then read off the names and gifts listed on the invitation cards, infusing each announcement with spirit energy, making sure it reverberated throughout the vicinity.
Not only the people inside Feng Manor heard it, but people outside could also hear it. The crowd gathered outside the manor was awestruck as a parade of priceless treasures and rarely-seen figures arrived one after the other to offer congratulations and give gifts.
