Ye Piaoling accepted it and smiled. “Thank you, my tribespeople. What a beautiful wreath!”
The moment His Majesty Xiao Changye saw the two trailing ribbons, he nearly lost it.
His entire body began trembling uncontrollably all over again!
He could already imagine it: his underpants had been divided into countless pieces and put to use in all sorts of different scenarios…
Seeing him stare fixedly at the wreath, trembling with emotion, Ye Piaoling smiled and said, “Since Your Majesty likes this wreath so much, I’ll give it to you!”
With that, she placed the wreath on Xiao Changye’s head.
Then she adjusted the ribbons so that they fell smoothly on either side of his face.
Xiao Changye: “…”
Xiao Changye was about to go insane.
No. I cannot stay here any longer. Attendants! Return to the palace!
Under the reluctant gazes of the Cannibal Tribe, everyone left the canyon jungle.
Once they returned to the grassy highlands, Ye Piaoling instantly felt her spiritual power come back.
It was an incredibly wondrous feeling, like suddenly getting a Wi-Fi signal!
The electric scooter was still parked steadily not far away.
Di Xiulan said, “Take out your air conditioner. I will add another restriction to it.”
So Ye Piaoling took out the coffin.
The moment the lid opened, the Ghost Po inside immediately leaped out in a frenzy. Its mind had already suffered severe damage, and it was intent on taking revenge on them all.
Di Xiulan raised his hand and formed a spell seal. Streaks of golden light wrapped around the Ghost Po like chains, trapping it in place.
The Ghost Po thrashed madly with its talisman-covered body, moving like it was doing plaza dancing as it tried to break free. But the more it struggled, the tighter the bindings became…
At last, Di Xiulan struck it with his palm.
Boom!
Divine light transformed into a golden seal, completely locking the Ghost Po down!
The Ghost Po instantly stopped moving. It turned into a terracotta warrior, standing there ramrod straight.
Di Xiulan brushed his sleeve and smiled faintly. “It is done now.”
Ye Piaoling blinked. “So this time, no matter what, it won’t be able to get out, right?”
Di Xiulan nodded.
Ye Piaoling said, “Then can you give it to me? It can release cold air. I want to put it to good use.”
Di Xiulan asked, “The imperial city is in winter right now. There is no need for air conditioning. What else do you plan to use it for?”
Ye Piaoling chuckled. “You’ll know when the time comes!”
On the journey back, they made no stops and hurried through the night back to the imperial city.
The moment Xiao Changye stepped out of the teleportation array in Chonghua Palace, he changed out of the dress at once. As for that wreath, he actually couldn’t bring himself to throw it away…
After all, part of his underpants was still on it.
When he set out, he had been wearing a complete pair of underpants. When he returned, only two ribbons were left.
Xiao Changye felt a hollow melancholy.
His Majesty was suffering inside, but His Majesty said nothing.
…
Ye Piaoling slept at Chonghua Palace. The next day, she went to tell her grandmother she was safe before returning to the Prime Minister’s Mansion.
When Fox Shadow saw that she was back, she was wildly excited. “Eldest Miss, you’re back so soon! Did you have fun?”
“A lot of fun,” Ye Piaoling said. “Go have a rectangular copper chest made with double doors. Add several compartments in the middle. It has to be very sturdy and seal well.”
Fox Shadow asked, “A copper chest? What is Eldest Miss making this time?”
Ye Piaoling said, “Just go. I’ll treat you to ice cream later!”
The Dali imperial city was located in the heart of the Central Plains. Although it was winter now, the weather was not particularly cold. Frozen food would easily melt once daytime came.
But if she had a refrigerator, that would be a different story…
Once the copper chest was finished, Ye Piaoling placed the terracotta-warrior-like Ghost Po inside.
Then she mixed honey and milk, poured it into cups one by one, and placed them on the compartments.
After freezing overnight…
Ye Piaoling opened the refrigerator, and sure enough, each cup of ice cream had formed!
“Brilliant!”
Ye Piaoling clapped her hands.
Fox Shadow walked over curiously. When she saw the Ghost Po inside the copper chest, she abruptly took a step back, her face filled with terror. “Eldest Miss, this is…”
“This is called a refrigerator,” Ye Piaoling introduced. “It can be used to freeze food. This model is air-cooled and frost-free. Very high-end.”
She pointed at the Ghost Po and explained, “This part is the refrigerator’s cooling equipment. Its scientific name is a condenser, a high-tech product capable of refrigeration.”
Fox Shadow: “…”
Ye Piaoling said, “A refrigerator is extremely useful. It’s winter now, so it isn’t that obvious yet. But once summer comes, chilling some watermelon and the like will be amazing!”
With that, she took out a cup of ice cream and handed it to Fox Shadow. “Here, try it and see if it’s good!”
Fox Shadow accepted it, but her gaze remained fixed on the Ghost Po inside the refrigerator.
