Bab 1381: Another bunch of fanatics

"Oh it's strawberries," Shao Tengfei said with some surprise. "Though they are ripe they still have some green shade at the bottom. Why did Princess send you unripe strawberries?" She could not help but ask in surprise. It was a rule that nothing imperfect could be served in front of the members of the Imperial family. As Xie Lei was the eldest princess, it was quite a surprise that she actually forgo the rule and sent these imperfect strawberries to her mother. "Is there something special about these strawberries?" The eldest princess never did something that would embarrass the Imperial Family. There was no way, she would have broken a rule for no reason. 

However, no matter how she looked at it the strawberries looked unripe. 

"And what is that?" Cui Meiji questioned as she picked up the small wooden box inside the large one. As soon as she touched it, she pulled her fingers away in a jiffy. 

"What's wrong?" Xie Zhenya asked as she looked at Cui Meiji.
