Ji Yunshuang returned without any attendants.

However, if rewards are given but the special features of those rewards are not explained, then the rewards are as good as not being given at all.

Now that the reward has been given, it must serve its purpose, making Fu Jiayou more loyal and more diligent in performing his official duties...

After thinking for a moment, she summoned Peng Yan from the spatial dimension and asked her to run the errand for her.

The things Ji Yunshuang bestowed upon Fu Jiayou were rare and precious items to him. But Ji Yunshuang had given even more valuable items to her two children.

Peng Yan spent time with Lu Yanqi and Lu Yuzhu in the space, and she had seen all these things before and knew how to use them.

In addition, Peng Yan's respect for her made it very suitable for her to do this task.

After explaining her mission to Peng Yan, Ji Yunshuang felt both excited and afraid. She was excited because His Majesty valued her so highly, even saying she would serve him. She was afraid of the task she had been given.

Those were imperial officials; she used to kneel and kowtow to such people.

No, she couldn't even see him before. It was because of His Majesty that she had this opportunity.

Considering her current status, Peng Yan felt uneasy when she saw Fu Jiayou, but she tried her best to remain calm and not embarrass His Majesty.

When Fu Jiayou saw Peng Yan, a guess flashed through his mind. He was extremely respectful to Peng Yan, showing no restraint or airs of authority in front of her.

Although he wasn't present when Ji Yunshuang appeared to save Fu Ci, he knew about the situation afterward.

They knew that she had descended from the sky riding a tiger and snatched Fu Ci back from the clutches of death.

She didn't bring anyone with her except for her mount.

But the tiger she was riding disappeared with a wave of his hand.

Everyone assumed that the tiger had returned to the Tianshan Mountains and would be retrieved when she needed it.

So, is the young girl dressed as a maid in front of her also someone she found in the fairyland?

Fu Jiayou thought to himself, but dared not ask any further questions.

Peng Yan had no idea what Fu Jiayou was thinking; she only felt that the official in front of her was very different from the officials she had heard of before.

The official in front of me was humble and kind; he was clearly a good official.

She unconsciously relaxed a little, and after bowing and paying her respects to Fu Jiayou, she said, "Lord Fu! The items that His Majesty has bestowed upon you this time are not available here. Fearing that you might not know how to use them, he sent me here to tell you how to use them."

Peng Yan referred to herself as a servant, but Fu Jiayou dared not treat her as one at all. He returned Peng Yan's greeting, saying, "Thank you!"

He didn't dare to pry too much, and took Peng Yan to the room to see the things that Ji Yunshuang had given him.

Peng Yan kept her mission in mind and began to introduce the chests and trunks that Ji Yunshuang had bestowed upon her.

"This is a thermos. Hot water can be kept warm for several hours after it's put in. And once the lid is tightened, the water won't spill out no matter how you put it."

Peng Yan explained the thermos to Fu Jiayou while demonstrating how to use it.

Fu Jiayou, Chu Yi, and the others were already astonished to hear that hot water could be kept warm for several hours after being poured into the kettle, not to mention that the water inside wouldn't spill out no matter how it was placed after the lid was tightened.

Seeing everyone's incredulous expressions, Peng Yan said, "Sir, why don't you have someone prepare some hot water and let us try it first?"

Her older brother had one of these thermos cups. At first, she thought it was impossible, but after using it herself, she no longer doubted it.

Fu Jiayou didn't want to appear naive, but Chu Yi had already taken it upon himself to have someone bring over boiled water.

Peng Yan poured boiling water into the pot in front of them and demonstrated how.

Everyone was amazed to see that after pouring hot water into the thermos, not a drop spilled no matter how the thermos was placed. They then recalled Peng Yan's words, that the thermos could keep hot water warm for several hours.

Everyone exclaimed that it was amazing.

But that's not even the most amazing object.

Peng Yan picked up a solar-powered light, turned it on, and said, "This is a night light. As long as it's been exposed to sunlight during the day, you can turn it on at night and use it."

"This light is so bright!" exclaimed Chu Yi. "It's even brighter than a luminous pearl!"

"And this is a ballpoint pen; it writes without ink," Peng Yan said, opening the pen's cap and explaining how to use it.

……

With each word spoken, everyone's eyes widened a little more.

They all thought to themselves, "As expected of a deity, the gifts bestowed upon people are truly extraordinary."

After introducing all the unusual utensils, Peng Yan pointed to another basket of fruit and kindly reminded everyone: "These fruits were picked from a fairyland. They not only taste good, but they are also very beneficial to one's health."

While in Qiongdu, His Majesty also rewarded many generals who had rendered meritorious service. Lord Fu is fortunate to have so much to enjoy. However, these fruits cannot be kept for long; it would be best if you ate them soon.”

Upon hearing this, Fu Jiayou felt another surge of excitement.

Only generals with meritorious service in Qiongdu have the opportunity to receive these immortal fruits as rewards. Now he not only received immortal fruits as rewards, but also so many precious items.

Those items are all good heirlooms.

Moreover, by following Ji Yunshuang, there might be other opportunities to receive rewards in the future. Even better, gaining her favor and eventually being able to cultivate immortality with her is not impossible...

I used to think his greatest ambition was to fight among his brothers and eventually become the emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

But now, he suddenly felt his horizons had broadened. His pursuits should be more than just such superficial things.

He suppressed his excitement and personally escorted Peng Yan to the gate of the mansion, even stuffing her a purse full of gold melon seeds.

Only after Peng Yan's carriage had disappeared from sight did he return to his room. He looked at the various items and fruits that Ji Yunshuang had bestowed upon him.

Besides oranges and peaches, there were several other fruits he had never seen before.

Peng Yan just gave him an introduction and explained how to eat these fruits.

Fu Jiayou took a strawberry and put it in his mouth, immediately squinting his eyes in enjoyment.

He sighed contentedly, "It's delicious!"

It must be wonderful to be an immortal.

Even an emperor wouldn't be able to eat such delicious fruit.

He needed to perform his duties diligently, demonstrate his abilities to Her Majesty the Divine Lord, and gain her greater trust...

On the other side, Peng Yan rode back in a carriage to see Ji Yunshuang. She recounted her meeting with Fu Jiayou and his behavior, and then took out the gold melon seeds that Fu Jiayou had given her when she left and handed them to Ji Yunshuang.

Ji Yunshuang refused to accept it, saying, "Since it was given to you by him, you should keep it! Thank you for your trouble."

Peng Yan hurriedly said, "It's no trouble at all. It's an honor to serve His Majesty. Thank you for giving me this opportunity. I can't accept this gold. It's a blessing that His Majesty has taken us in."

Ji Yunshuang said, "I'm giving you this gold as a reward. You can save it and use it as your dowry when you grow up."

Peng Yan felt a little embarrassed when she heard her mention marriage. She said, "I want to work for His Majesty forever."

"You're still young. We'll talk about it when you're older." Ji Yunshuang used her telekinesis to retrieve several sets of clothes from the mall in her spatial dimension and said to her, "I won't give you any other rewards, I'll just give you a few outfits to change into!"

She hadn't considered the issue of clothing for the brother and sister beforehand, nor had she prepared any for them. The clothes she was wearing were only prepared for her temporarily because she needed to do something for her this time.

She was small and spent more time in the space, so Ji Yunshuang brought out a few sets of sporty children's clothes from the mall for her.

After bowing her head to thank Ji Yunshuang with a flushed face, Peng Yan hugged the clothes tightly. These clothes were so soft and warm to the touch; she had never seen anything like them before.

After giving her clothes as a reward, Ji Yunshuang sent her back to her space.

Inside the space, all the sweet potatoes that had been planted earlier had been harvested.

Ji Yunshuang had already used her telekinesis to move all the dug-up sweet potatoes to a warehouse on the other side of the space for safekeeping.

Many of the newly planted vegetables have already flowered and begun to bear fruit.

The black soil is lush and vibrant with life.

Looking at that patch of black soil, Ji Yunshuang felt incredibly satisfied.

Peng Yimeng cultivated the land very well.

However, Peng Yimeng has an exceptional sensitivity to mechanics, and it would be a waste to keep such a talent in the space for farming.
