Yu Lan responded and, together with Sister Ji, brought over a dressing case that was one foot wide and two feet long.
The dressing case was exquisitely crafted; the patterns on its surface were neither flowers nor grass. Upon closer inspection, they resembled waves.
Xia Ruqing looked at it for a while, pondering.
Duoluo Country is abundant in various gemstones and jades, which must mean there are many mountains. Combined with the wave patterns on the dressing case and the annual production of top-quality Zhen Zhu, could it also be near the coast? A land of many mountains and stones, bordered by the sea, and bountiful in jewels. It must be quite magical!
As Xia Ruqing was lost in thought, she suddenly heard someone call her name.
When she came to her senses, she saw it was the Empress.
"Sister Consort Xian Pin, what are you thinking about? You seem so lost in thought."
