Di Zian didn't reply.
Ah Bao's eyes were glued to the box of gold ingots.
She even forgot to keep munching her sunflower seeds.
She just kept drooling.
[Brother, look! Gold! So shiny, so pretty!]
Di Zian: I see it, little sister, I'm not blind. I can see it clearly.
He smiled foolishly, as if he had never seen money before.
Seeing the siblings' silence, the Prime Minister quietly instructed the steward. The steward quickly brought out another small box.
What the Prime Minister didn't realize was that the siblings were both dazzled by money.
They were, after all, are prince and a princess. How much gold and silver had they not seen before?
Why would they be interested in such a small amount of gold and silver?
This time, the box didn't contain gold ingots.
It was filled with silver banknotes!
The Prime Minister, trembling, handed the small box to Di Zian, "Seventh Prince, Tenth Princess, this is all I have. I've brought out everything from the Prime Minister's residence."
"Of course, he's quite shrewd as well.
He definitely kept a small portion aside as a dowry for Xuan'er in the future. That simply can't be touched!
Even if the heavens themselves came down, he wouldn't take that out.
He'd rather suffer himself than let these two children suffer.
'Now there's truly nothing left, Your Highness, Princess, even if you ask for more, there isn't any.'
Di Zian cleared his throat, 'Ahem, alright then. Sister, do you think this will suffice?'
Ah Bao kept a straight face, trying hard to suppress her laughter.
She had to hold it in!
She absolutely had to hold it in!
'[It's enough, it's enough, leave some for the old Prime Minister to live on.]'
'Oh, Princess,' the old Prime Minister, seeing the princess's pouty face, felt a bit guilty.
'Ha, no need to send any gifts,' Ah Bao waved her small hand.
The old Prime Minister: '...'
Things had already reached this point. If he didn't send some sort of gift, it would seem he didn't understand social niceties.
The old Prime Minister immediately ordered someone to bring a gold lock.
Ah Bao's eyes widened.
'[What a big gold lock!]'
'No, no...' Ah Bao quickly swallowed her saliva.
The old Prime Minister shivered and hurriedly hung the gold lock around Ah Bao's neck, 'Princess, this is a little meeting gift from this old minister, please accept it with a smile.'
Ah Bao giggled with a look of utter delight.
'[Accept with a smile! Of course, I'll accept it with a smile!]'
'[The old Prime Minister really knows how to get things done.]'
Di Zian's mouth twitched. This large gold lock must have cost the old Prime Minister several years' worth of his salary.
