It's not just a win-win, no, to be more accurate, it's a win-win-win!
Initially, the Empress thought Jiang Liu's proactive offering of a treasure as a congratulatory gift would inevitably cost her something in return. However, in the end, she only lent out the Map of Mountains and Rivers for a hundred years without any real loss to herself—it indeed turned out to be quite a profit!
And for Zixia? Originally, being taken in by the Empress as an adopted daughter was a huge gain in itself, but she also received a Seven-Colored Feather Coat. Then, Jiang Liu gave her a Ginseng Fruit—naturally, this was also a big win.
Last was Jiang Liu. A Seven-Colored Feather Coat? It was merely one of the many Legendary Level Equipment items dropped after running hundreds of dungeon instances—equipment of which there was plenty more in his Gang's Treasury. Giving away one such piece was no big deal.
