Soon, the dinner came to the opening of gift boxes, and Gu Zening and others immediately became interested.
"Nangong Xi's coming-of-age ceremony will be as good as any gift from anyone who comes. This guy is really a rich man!"
Gu Zening had a look of emotion on his face, and was already thinking about how to take advantage of this opportunity to win something from Nangong Xi. After all, this guy is so rich, who would he be killing if he didn't kill him
Mu Zhiqing looked at the familiar light in Gu Zening's eyes and guessed what he was thinking, and a look of helplessness suddenly appeared in her eyes.
Nangong Xi on the side was completely unaware of Gu Zening's little plan. She was looking at the pile of gift boxes in front of her with great joy, smiling happily.
"It's so jealous!"
Mu Yunyan curled her lips, with a hint of dissatisfaction in her eyes.
Mu Zhiqing raised her eyebrows, "Yunyan, what did you give Nangong? Why this expression?"
Before Mu Yunyan could answer, the eunuch's voice sounded.
"Congratulations to the alchemist Mu Jia!"
Upon hearing this, Mu Zhiqing and others couldn't help but turn their attention to Nangong Xi.
In this coming-of-age ceremony, it has always been a custom that the birthday person will open the gift box and express his gratitude.
However, with the number of gift boxes Nangong Xi received, it was obviously unrealistic to do so, so they just randomly selected a few gift boxes to open and display them.
Many people present looked at Nangong Xi expectantly, hoping that he could open the gift box he gave and show his sincerity in front of so many people.
"The Palace of the Minister of Civil Affairs, a pair of emeralds and jade."
Nangong Xi opened the gift box, and the eunuch beside him read it out immediately.
Mu Zhiqing glanced at it and saw that it was indeed an excellent jadeite. On an occasion like today, many ministers must have chosen the best treasures to send. The senior brother's statement was also reasonable.
However, when she thought of Your Majesty's Treasure Pavilion in her mind, she sighed silently, Your Majesty is the biggest rich man!
Nangong Xi opened several brocade boxes one after another, which were all full of high-quality treasures. Everyone present nodded and compared the gifts they had given each other.
"Alchemist Mu's family..." The eunuch's voice sounded again, but when he saw the treasure in the gift box, he couldn't help but froze for a moment, and then continued: "A talisman."
When Nangong Xi saw this talisman, a smile couldn't help but appear in his eyes, and he turned to look at Mu Yunyan.
Didn't this guy say that he would never give this talisman as a gift to him no matter what
I didn’t expect that this talisman would be sent over today. It’s really funny.
Mu Yunyan naturally noticed Nangong Xi's appearance, and a strong look of helplessness appeared on her face.
"Yunyan, you are dishonest!" Gu Zening looked at Mu Yunyan, "You said you wouldn't give it to us in front of us, but you secretly gave it to him!"
"What do you mean secretly sending it away?" Mu Yunyan asked, her eyes widening.
"If Nangong Xi hadn't happened to get your gift box, who would have known to give him this talisman except him?"
Gu Zening clicked his tongue and shook his head, with deep meaning in his eyes.
Mu Yunyan rolled her eyes, "I didn't want to give it away, but my grandfather happened to ask me when I went back, so I told him about it.
Grandpa said that Nangong Xi had already said what he liked, so naturally we had to give it away. "
"So, I sent it."
Mu Yunyan spread her hands with a look of helplessness on her face.
