The Humble Family's Daughter Has A Spatial Pocket! novel Chapter 866

Chapter 866: Chapter 754, Maintenance

Having just been called away by the chief historian to assist, Huai En returned to the Hundred Herbs Garden and immediately sensed that something was amiss.

Why were women present as the Prince entertained male guests in the Hundred Herbs Garden?

Where were the Princess Consort and the senior madam? Didn’t they care to intervene?

And what on earth was everyone looking at?

Huai En quickened his pace towards the pavilion after overhearing the whispered discussions around him, learning that the Prince had summoned his future Little Princess Consort and had a conflict with her.

The Little Prince was already on bad terms with the Prince; if he found out that the Prince had bullied his fiancée, it certainly meant trouble was brewing!

Entering the pavilion, Huai En first bowed to Prince Shengping, then turned and bowed to Daohua, but he froze in place as soon as he turned around.

Lord!

Prince Shengping couldn’t stand seeing one of his own looking so foolish and coughed loudly.

Huai En came back to his senses, glanced at Daohua, and then greeted her with an embarrassed smile, "Lord, what a coincidence!"

Hearing this, Daohua and Prince Shengping exchanged glances.

Daohua managed a slight smile, "Indeed, quite the coincidence!"

Huai En, always quick-witted, had now put two and two together; the Lord who had previously saved him and his master was indeed the Little Prince’s future Little Princess Consort.

Good heavens, that truly was quite the coincidence!

Noticing his master’s displeased expression, and reflecting on the Princess Consort’s habitual criticism of the Little Princess Consort in front of his master, Huai En deduced that this meeting must have been an unpleasant affair and hastily tried to smooth things over with a laugh.

"Little Princess Consort, where exactly on Chang’an Street is your Rouge Shop? Previously, my master wanted to discuss rouge-making with you, but this servant couldn’t find it to save his life."

Daohua glanced around at the onlookers before taking her seat again, "My Rouge Shop is called the Four Seasons Rouge Shop."

Prince Shengping looked interested, not wanting to become a laughingstock, and proactively asked, "Is that the same Four Seasons Rouge Shop that sells Ice Muscle Paste?"

Daohua nodded in confirmation, "Hmm."

Prince Shengping coughed lightly, feeling slightly uneasy, "How did you come to produce Ice Muscle Paste?"

Ice Muscle Paste was a tribute item, rare in quantity; even if he asked his imperial brother for some, he wasn’t guaranteed to receive it.

He had tried the Ice Muscle Paste from the Four Seasons Rouge Shop, and its effects were nearly indistinguishable from the tribute item.

Daohua explained, "I was injured before, and Xiao Yeyang had asked my imperial uncle to obtain a box for me. There was some left over after my wounds healed, so I experimented with it, and, quite accidentally, I managed to produce it."

Listening to Daohua’s familiar way of addressing his family, Prince Shengping was somewhat at a loss for words. She wasn’t even married into the family yet, and she was calling them with such ease. And could she rein in that proud look on her face a bit? Truly, she knew nothing of modesty.

Seeing Prince Shengping soften a little, and knowing his interest in such things, Daohua shared some details about the production process of Ice Muscle Paste.

Prince Shengping, as expected, was distracted by the new topic, listening intently and even asking about other products sold in the Rouge Shop, like perfumes, shower gels, and shampoos.

"You are quite clever, young lady!"

After hearing about the production process of the shower gel and shampoo, Prince Shengping didn’t skimp on his praise for Daohua.

Daohua accepted the compliment with a smile, "My master and grandmother also think so; they say that a well-read, gentle-hearted, and intelligent young lady like me is becoming quite rare these days."

Listening to Daohua brazenly praising herself, Prince Shengping’s mouth twitched, while Huai En admired her with a glance; the Little Prince’s chosen girl was indeed... exceptional, praising herself without a hint of blushing or embarrassment.

Just then, three people approached the outside of the pavilion.
