Closing her fan with a snap, the woman made a dismissal gesture. "It has only been five hundred years since we meet face to face!" The woman's laugh was gentle. "Thanks to young master Jin, I am able to maintain my beauty and age." As if to show it, the woman rubbed her cheeks.

"You have always helped my family. We couldn't keep all those ministers in check with the Empire's funds without your help. His Majesty Zhen Lian is thoroughly satisfied with your work."
