Chapter 358 The Princess who refused to marry 27
One set of silver jewelry was exchanged for two sets of gold jewelry. Why was he at a slight loss? But there is little silver, and it is all brought from foreign countries. If it takes half a year to collect the good silver to make a pair, wouldn't it be even worse?
Nakhat then nodded: "Okay, two sets of gold, red and emerald."
Xining: "How about I exchange these two sets of gold jewelry for some things needed for raising children? The nursing home still lacks a lot of things..."
Nakhat finally understood: "Okay, okay, make a list of the things needed for raising children. If you need to add more, as long as they are not very expensive, leave them all to the Secretary of the Treasury for purchase."

Xining smiled and said coquettishly: "Thank you, father. Father is the best to me."
It feels so good to be praised by my daughter. Nakhat pinched his beard very happily, and made up his mind that no one would give this silver jewelry to anyone, and he would wear it himself on the prince's wedding day!
Tell the truth and let the guards discuss it privately.
The nursery requires twenty guards. Everyone knows that the nursery is located next to the little princess's bedroom and is run by the little princess. There are a lot of big-bellied women there, and all they have to do is sit at the door in shifts every day to prevent others from entering. Work is more leisurely than patrolling the palace every day, and the little princess is so noble that no one dares to hit her at the moment.
Unexpectedly, the little princess simply asked people to go to the city gate to report the trouble. Anyone who meets the requirements for guard recruitment can participate.
This attracted the attention of the whole city. This was a great opportunity to enter the palace. For ordinary people, as long as they could enter the palace and eat royal food, it would be much better than being an ordinary nobleman, rich man, or a servant who looked after the house and the courtyard.
Naturally, the outside world didn't think as deeply as the palace. They thought it was the pharaoh who was doing it to celebrate the marriage of the prince and the eldest princess, and to have fun with the people.
For a while, the registration points inside and outside the palace were crowded with people, and they even had to sign a life and death contract. Regardless of the casualties during the competition, all warriors or people with strong bodies and strength flock to it.
The advantage of those in the palace over those outside the palace is that they can directly enter the semi-finals. Those who register outside the palace need to compete three times before they can get the right to compete with the palace guards. But for those who are evenly matched, or who are unlucky enough to draw a master, you can consider adding a match at your own discretion. If you continue, you will blame your own skills or bad luck if you lose.
The competition ended three days before the prince's wedding, and the semi-finals were held on the third day after the prince's wedding, which made people mistakenly think that it was to celebrate the marriage of the prince and the eldest princess. This event is different than before. You can also see fighting. Although it is not as good as the gladiators from another country, it is still very good. Thrilling and bloody things are often seen, which is very exciting.
On the wedding day of the prince and the eldest princess, Xining only wore ordinary delicate jewelry, an amethyst beaded necklace, a thin gold belt, and a gold and ruby bracelet on his hand. It is simpler than the jewelry worn by other princesses. It cannot be compared with the princess who is dressed in gold. And even if the jewelry of the third princess wearing a pearl sari is not as gorgeous as the princess, this sari skirt is still valuable, and it is also valuable because of its novelty, which makes people have to look at it more. Eye.
Seeing the prince looking at the dresses of the third princess who got married at the same time, the eldest princess's face, which was covered with powder, was still very dark.
The eldest princess looked angry; the third princess followed cautiously with her head slightly lowered; the prince naturally felt that he was the best.
And the Pharaoh's set of sterling silver jewelry was indeed astonishingly bright. Xi Ning felt that this set of jewelry looked a bit like Miao jewelry. From head to waist, she wished she could use as much silver as she wanted. If it went on more, the two-color crown would be hidden behind a huge silver tiara with a cobra inlaid in the middle.
The huge necklace covered the entire chest and was as big as a jade dress with gold threads; each arm ring weighed about three kilograms. Luckily it wasn't her wearing it, otherwise she would have been crushed.
Nakhat accepted the attention of everyone, pretending to be noble and contemptuous of all mortals, but in fact he secretly watched the reactions of the people around him. It can be seen that in addition to the prince's handsomeness, the beauty of the eldest princess's jewelry, and the third princess's wedding dress, everyone also commented enviously on his silver jewelry. It feels great, but it’s so heavy! Fortunately, he was the one wearing it, otherwise if the little princess were to wear it, she would be too heavy to walk and faint from the sweltering heat.
Look at the jewelry that the little princess wears, which is mainly light. That's it.
Even so, when Xining returned to the bedroom, he was so tired that he lay on the bed and didn't want to move. The wedding included blessings from the high priest and priestess, and officials announced that the entire process took a full half hour.
And as a princess with a distinguished status, she has to sit at the head of all the princesses, close to the queen. This position is very conspicuous and cannot be moved in the face of many eyes.
The queen would look over with a smile from time to time. In her eyes, cold eyes like a cobra shot towards her, wanting to eat her alive.
Akhenaten was sitting at the end of the prince's row, and he looked sideways at her from time to time. Wearing the robe that was given to her before and a complete set of jewelry, she looked presentable. In the previous plot, Akhenaten was also sitting there, but he had no jewelry on him and looked very shabby. The body owner and others also secretly made fun of him.
After lying down for a while, someone came to invite the little princess to a banquet.
Xining lay down and called the messenger to come in, pretending to be desperate. Anyway, the queen and the eldest princess would be more comfortable if she didn't go.
Du Ya led the people to the door and let the visitors take a look. What was said right at the door was, "Your Highness the Princess is not feeling well. Please tell the great Pharaoh and the noble Queen. Please also speak to Your Highness the Crown Prince..." Luo Li. Suo has told everyone in full, including all their honorifics, and invited someone to come back and report.
The little princess has been in poor health, and it's already good to be able to breathe. Only in this way can you attend the wedding without fainting in the middle, which is considered a favor from the gods. So the visitor went back to report the news.
After a while, Pharaoh ordered someone to deliver a meal.
He knew that if he didn't go, she would have to eat. Duya and the maids were even more happy. There was so much food that the little princess would definitely not be able to finish it all. If the little princess goes to the banquet, the unfinished food will only be distributed to the guards, followed by the people outside the city who give gifts.
At the prince's place, the next steps will be done step by step. If two concubines get married together, then the prince will first go to the main concubine, say a few words, then go to the side concubine, and then return to his room to rest. Unless there is a princess you particularly like, then stay overnight.
In the evening, Du Ya brought news that the prince had returned to his room.
Xining smiled and continued to sleep while lying down. What she is more concerned about now is the game two days later, and she will also watch it live. This time I have obtained twenty guards through the nursing home, so I have to choose carefully.
The next day, it was near noon. Xi Ning was in a daze and before her body fully recovered, the prince came running over.
