    Qin mother and some hesitation said: “There is a strange thing, this morning in the courtyard inexplicably more than two different styles of lacquered wooden box, seems to be what people take advantage of the night to put. Because of the seal on it, the old slave did not dare to trespass, Auntie may want to take a look?”

    Shellfish wondered, “Bring it in and look at it.”

    Qin mama turned around and left the house, and in a short while she walked in holding two lacquered wooden boxes.

    Although these two boxes are made of lacquered wood, but the style is very different. One is a simple style of the four sides of the pine box, the market can be found everywhere in the style; another round box is made of precious nanmu, complex and exquisite pattern, look is not like ordinary products.

    Xiang Capsicum first gently unveiled the seal on top of the four-sided box, inside was a piece of white jade-like osmanthus cake, the cake surface was dotted with golden osmanthus flowers, gusts of light and elegant aroma came to the nose.

    Xiang Capsicum loves sweets, especially osmanthus cake. But this matter is only a few close people know, can not be, is Chen Zian sent someone to send?

    But if that’s the case, why don’t you take that little bottle of Jade Goddess along with it?

    Fragrant Capsicum frowned slightly and reached to open another round shaped box.

    The nanmu box seal written in lower case with the words “birthday gift”, incense capsule gently tear open the seal, only to see a piece of jewelry, inside which is placed a set of exquisite onyx jewelry, necklaces, earrings, bracelets, each polished rounded and smooth, warm and cool to the touch.

    Seeing the unique luan bird pattern printed on the inside of the box, Xiang Capsicum thought that she knew who the gift giver was.

    But she and Ruiniang usually hate this birthday. Xiang Capsicum can almost be certain that the person in the Dengjie Lou is not Ruiniang, even though her appearance is somewhat similar to Ruiniang!

    Just thinking about it, suddenly heard the sound of alarm coming from the mother Qin behind her, Xiang Capsicum hurriedly looked back, only to see the mother Qin staring straight at that luan bird totem, her eyes were actually shocked.

    “Mother Qin, do you recognize this pattern?”

    “Auntie actually doesn’t know?” Qin mama frowned, “In my early years, I was a maid in Kyoto for the family of a second-ranked official, and I have dabbled a little in the totems of the world’s families. In my land of Yan, this is a totem exclusive to the royal family and is only allowed to be used by the Eastern Palace.”

    Fragrant Capsicum was also stunned to the spot.

    I never thought that “Ruiniang” was from the East Palace!

    Xiang Capsicum’s heart was like a beating drum, remembering Chen Zisheng’s reaction that day, and those well-trained shadow guards, the mystery that had plagued his heart for a long time was finally solved.

    Seeing that Xiang Capsicum’s panicked expression did not seem to be faked, Mother Qin could not help but ask again, “Auntie has never been to Kyoto, so how could she recognize the people of the Eastern Palace?”

    Instead, Scent Capsicum waved her hand and said, “Let me slow down, let me slow down-“

    In that case, the identity of the fake Ruiniang will never be simple, and where is the real Ruiniang?

    What kind of secret is hidden behind this Dengmai Building?

    And what did she have in her that was worth the painstaking efforts of the forces of the Eastern Palace to engineer?

    Shellfish just felt like her head was going to explode, and she pinched between her eyebrows in pain.

    “Is auntie alright?” Qin mama barely managed to appease, “No matter what, befriending the Eastern Palace is always a good thing. If you curry favor with the Crown Prince, I think that your future position in the Chen family will certainly not be inferior to that of the Young Lady.”

    Xiang Capsicum inhaled deeply, “That’s all, let’s not think that far ahead first – you go and pick out a few good things first, and we’ll send them later to congratulate Cai Die’s sister. However, is the young master still over there?”

    Mother Qin was busy saying, “Indeed, it is still there.”

    Xiang Capsicum nodded and added: ”Forget it then, it’s rare for the Eldest Young Master to go, we’d better not disturb them. Let’s send word to Aunt Bai’s side first. Say that I will go over today.”

    “Yes.”
