Li Cheng, being a sharp individual, naturally noticed the fleeting look of delight on Bai Susu's face.
Feeling relieved at this.
It seems Bai Susu is quite fond of the items bestowed by the Emperor. It was worth the Emperor's effort to pacify the Bai Family, even taking out one of the most precious headpieces from the National Treasury.
With this, perhaps Bai Susu's resentment could be eased somewhat?
After all, once she becomes the Crown Princess Consort, she will have numerous opportunities to receive jewels like these.
Moreover, not everyone is qualified to wear such headpieces.
...
"It's getting late; I still need to return to the palace to report to the Emperor, so I won't take more of Mr. Bai's time. Farewell!" Li Cheng said with a satisfied smile.
The task was complete; it was time to go back and report the situation to His Majesty.
Prime Minister Bai immediately signaled the steward to give him some compensation, but Li Cheng declined.
