The Empress Dowager held Su Yinyin's hand, her eyes full of concern, and asked kindly, "Yinyin, have you had breakfast? Don't go hungry."
Su Yinyin bowed slightly and replied softly, "Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty. I have already used it, so Your Majesty need not worry about me."
At this moment, a prince said curiously, "The Princess Protector of the Nation is favored by the Empress Dowager and His Majesty, so she must be exceptionally intelligent."
"Princess Protector, your gift just now seemed quite ordinary? Could there be some hidden meaning inside?"
Su Yinyin smiled and responded humbly, "Your Highness is too kind. This is all thanks to the Empress Dowager and His Majesty's favor towards me. I still have many shortcomings, and I hope you will all offer your guidance."
As for this cloth bag, it was personally chosen by Yinyin. Your Majesty, why don't you open it and take a look?
The Empress Dowager smiled and gently opened the cloth bag, revealing it filled with small, exquisite boxes and bottles, each with a clear label.
The Empress Dowager thought she was seeing things, so she quickly closed the bag, blinked hard, and after a moment of calm, opened the bag again, unconsciously moving her head closer to it, wanting to see more clearly.
She found it unbelievable that such a small cloth bag could hold so many boxes and bottles.
Everyone was drawn to the Empress Dowager's surprised expression and couldn't help but cast curious glances at her. The Emperor, seeing the Empress Dowager's reaction, also felt a surge of curiosity and longed to step forward and see for himself.
But he was, after all, the emperor. He had seen all sorts of rare and precious treasures. He couldn't lose his composure in front of everyone, so he had to suppress his curiosity.
The Empress Dowager looked up at Su Yinyin, her eyes full of doubt, and asked, "Yinyin, this...?"
Knowing what the Empress Dowager wanted to ask, Su Yinyin smiled and said, "Empress Dowager, why don't you go inside and take a look? You can bring out the things inside."
Upon hearing this, the Empress Dowager immediately became interested, stood up, and said, "Your Majesty, help me inside."
The emperor hurriedly stepped forward and carefully helped the empress dowager into the inner room.
The Empress Dowager couldn't wait to open the cloth bag again and reach for the box inside.
Surprisingly, she actually took out an exquisite box from that seemingly ordinary cloth bag.
The Empress Dowager was filled with surprise, her eyes wide open. She gently opened the box and saw a round, full luminous pearl inside, radiating a soft glow.
The size and quality of that night pearl were unparalleled in the world; even in a dimly lit room, it illuminated the surroundings as if it were daytime.
"This...this is truly amazing!" the Empress Dowager exclaimed, her eyes filled with surprise and excitement.
The emperor was also very curious, wondering to himself how such a small cloth bag could produce such a large box.
Immediately afterwards, the Empress Dowager took out two boxes from the cloth bag.
Upon seeing this, the emperor couldn't help but say, "Mother, let me see."
The Empress Dowager handed the box to the Emperor, who opened one of them and found a precious beauty cream inside. The bottle was exquisite and emitted a faint, elegant fragrance.
It is said that applying it can make your skin firm, like that of a young woman in her late teens, restoring your youthful appearance.
The other box contained an exquisite jade comb, its jade smooth and warm to the touch, its teeth neat and smooth.
The Emperor smiled and said, "The Princess Protector of the Nation is truly thoughtful. Such a treasure is extremely rare, which shows her sincere devotion to the Empress Dowager."
Then, as if remembering something, a glint of excitement flashed in the Emperor's eyes, and he said, "Mother, what I want to see is that cloth bag."
"The bag!" The Empress Dowager snapped out of her daze and said, "You may look at it, but you can't take it from me. This is a birthday gift that Yinyin specially gave to me."
"I promise I won't steal!" the emperor said firmly, but he was a little unhappy. He thought to himself, "What good things haven't I seen? Why would I want to steal anything?"
Only after the emperor gave his assurance did the Empress Dowager hand the cloth bag to him with peace of mind.
The emperor opened the cloth bag, looked inside, and exclaimed in amazement, "It's amazing, it's amazing!"
"What are you so excited about? This is a gift from Yinyin to me," the Empress Dowager said smugly, as if the bag were a unique treasure in the world.
"Mother, this is a treasure! If it can hold a large amount of grain, we can transport the grain to the front lines."
It is not afraid of being robbed or damaged, and it can save a lot of time and manpower.
"This will greatly benefit the war effort at the front!" the emperor exclaimed excitedly.
After listening to the Emperor's words, the Empress Dowager nodded thoughtfully. "The Emperor is right, but this is a birthday gift from Yinyin to me. It cannot be used to transport grain. This is Yinyin's heartfelt wish, and I cannot bear to part with it."
The emperor nodded hastily, "Your subject understands, but I was just excited and lost my sense of proportion."
"I also need to ask Yinyin for a cloth bag." After saying this, the emperor hurriedly walked out of the house.
Upon entering the hall, the emperor said to Su Yinyin, "Yinyin, the Empress Dowager is looking for you. Come in with me."
Su Yinyin understood the emperor's intentions. She calmly rose and followed the emperor into the inner room with graceful bearing.
The empress and princes present were all very curious and speculated about what treasure was inside the bag.
The fact that it could excite the Empress Dowager and the Emperor so much filled the palace with a mysterious atmosphere.
After Su Yinyin entered the inner room, the Empress Dowager took her hand and asked with a smile, "Yinyin, this cloth bag is something only immortals should have. Do you have any extras?"
The Empress Dowager was astute and wisely did not inquire about the origin of the items, but only asked if there were any extras.
Su Yinyin also knew the purpose of the emperor wanting the cloth bag, and pondered it in her heart.
Although she has many such cloth bags in her own space, she will not take them out easily to avoid causing unnecessary trouble.
Su Yinyin smiled and calmly explained, "Your Majesty, I obtained this bag by chance. It may look ordinary, but it is actually quite large and can hold many items."
The emperor, who had been unable to contain himself any longer, said eagerly, "Princess Protector of the Nation, I also want a few of these cloth bags. I will agree to whatever conditions you set."
"As long as I can obtain the cloth bag, and it benefits our dynasty's war efforts and the people's livelihood, I will spare no effort."
Su Yinyin lowered her head and pondered for a moment before slowly saying, "Your Majesty, I currently only have three. I offered one to the Empress Dowager, and the remaining two were originally intended for my own research. Now that Your Majesty has spoken, I will offer them to you."
After saying that, Su Yinyin pulled two cloth bags from her sleeve as if by magic and handed them to the emperor.
The emperor was overjoyed when he received the bag, and was even more shocked when he heard Su Yinyin's next words. He admired Su Yinyin's generosity and magnanimity even more.
"Empress Dowager, Your Majesty, you can pledge yourselves with blood. In this way, the bag will be connected to your will, making it easier to use. Even if someone else gets the bag, they will not be able to use it."
The Empress Dowager and the Emperor exchanged a glance, their eyes revealing excitement and anticipation. They immediately followed Su Yinyin's instructions, pricking their fingers and dripping blood to signify their union.
Su Yinyin smiled and said, "These bottles and jars are filled with elixirs that are good for your health. I specially prepared them for Your Majesty, hoping that Your Majesty will be healthy and live a long life."
The Empress Dowager was deeply moved, tears welling up in her eyes. She held Su Yinyin's hand tightly and said, "Yinyin, I really love your thoughtfulness. You are truly my sweet little darling."
The emperor, standing to the side, remarked with admiration, "This gift from the Princess Protector of the Nation is truly ingenious, both practical and precious; it is indeed a rare find."
