Chapter 30 - 18: The Blind-Eyed but Clear-Hearted Young Marquis
"Go." Tianmiao promptly agreed, then stood up as well, "I’ll go change clothes, then Little Marquis and I will go out to buy some things."
"Alright, buy plenty." Commandery Princess Yong’an said with a smile. These days, she had noticed that this Miss Tian had a strong preference for gourmet food and fine wine, luxurious clothes, and exquisite jewelry. The people of the Heavenly Calculation clan truly know how to enjoy life.
Tianmiao walked forward a couple of steps, suddenly stopped, and turned to look at Commandery Princess Yong’an.
"Miss Tian, is there anything else?" Commandery Princess Yong’an asked, puzzled.
"Commandery Princess, did you know?" Tianmiao directly looked into the eyes of Commandery Princess Yong’an, her voice suddenly becoming distant and ethereal, "The heavens are always fair."
After speaking, Tianmiao turned again and left.
Leaving Commandery Princess Yong’an standing there, bewildered.
What did she mean? Why did Miss Tian suddenly say that? What is the meaning?
It wasn’t until Tianmiao had left that Commandery Princess Yong’an truly understood the significance of those words.
...
On this day, when Tianmiao and Xiao Anning returned, there were two more people with them. A man and a woman, both striking in appearance, dressed in luxurious clothing, and exuding exceptional charisma.
"Who are these two?" Commandery Princess Yong’an asked, curious. The man and woman stood respectfully behind Tianmiao, silent. Could they also be from the Heavenly Calculation clan?
"My attendants." Tianmiao replied with a smile, "Let them handle the things we’ve bought these days."
"Alright." Commandery Princess Yong’an marveled inwardly, the Heavenly Calculation clan likely has more than just a penchant for enjoyment; they must be beauty enthusiasts. Even her two attendants are exceptionally good-looking.
Only Xiao Anning knew these two appeared out of thin air, quietly and silently appeared by Tianmiao’s side, and then returned with them. He was no longer shocked, completely accustomed to any extraordinary happenings around Tianmiao. After all, Tianmiao was no ordinary person.

The Crown Prince and Crown Princess Consort resided in the Eastern Palace, so the flower appreciation banquet was naturally held in the palace. Tianmiao and Commandery Princess Yong’an rode in the same carriage together heading to the Eastern Palace.
Upon arriving at the Eastern Palace, many officials and dignitaries had already arrived. When they noticed Commandery Princess Yong’an’s arrival, many eyes turned toward her. More were focused on the person beside Commandery Princess Yong’an. It had been widely rumored that Little Marquis was saved by someone from the Heavenly Calculation clan. Many people hadn’t seen Tianmiao’s true appearance, so today they seized the opportunity to take a look.
After getting a clear view of the person beside Commandery Princess Yong’an, everyone gasped. Are all the people from the Heavenly Calculation clan so stunningly beautiful, or is it just this girl? Her looks, beyond captivating cities and even nations.
At this moment, Ji Liruo was standing not far away, looking over here with a somewhat wistful expression. Beside her stood a young man with sword-like brows and starry eyes, his identity discernible from the indigo python-patterned robe he wore — it was Crown Prince’s son, His Imperial Grandson Liu Ming.
"Sister Ji, no need to worry. Although that woman is very beautiful, Xiao Anning cannot see her, and thus cannot appreciate her beauty." Liu Ming comforted in a low voice. Before becoming the Prime Minister, he had been the tutor of Imperial Grandson Liu Ming. Liu Ming often entered the Prime Minister’s Mansion under the pretense of seeking teachings, naturally becoming acquainted with Ji Liruo, who was also taught by the Prime Minister, sharing a bond akin to siblings.
Ji Liruo saw that as Xiao Anning arrived, he walked to Tianmiao’s side, smiling and talking with Tianmiao, who also showed a smile. Her expression became even more sorrowful. Liu Ming felt heartache seeing this and quickly spoke to console her.
