Eunuch Wang smiled and nodded, "Replying to the Queen, the people who came are the envoys from Dayuan, and they are the Second Prince and their princess. They said that they are old acquaintances of the county lady and want to meet her."

Tianbao knew who he was talking about. They must be Meng Jiao and Lian He, old acquaintances from Dayuan.

The fourth princess Xue Rongyi took Tianbao's hand and said, "Tianbao, I will go with you."

Tianbao nodded, "Okay."

The two men came out of the Queen's Palace and went directly to the hall where the envoys were received.

Before the two of them could salute, the emperor smiled and waved for Tianbao to sit down.

Meng Jiao's eyes flickered slightly. He didn't expect that Princess Ronghua was so favored, even more than he imagined.

"County Lady Ronghua, we meet again." Meng Jiao smiled and bowed to Tianbao.

Tian Bao just glanced at him calmly and said, "Second Prince."

"At the beginning, I was sincere in my friendship with Lord Li, and I didn't mean to hide my identity..."

"I don't want to mention the Second Prince's past anymore, and I don't want to ask about your affairs with Shu Bai." Tian Bao's attitude was indifferent, and a little cold.

The expression on Meng Jiao's face wasn't very good after he was humiliated.

The emperor chuckled and smoothed things over, "Since the Second Prince and the Princess have come to Dayan, they should take a good look around."

After saying that, he looked at the second and fourth princes and said, "Rong'er, you and the fourth prince should entertain the prince and princess of Dayuan."

They both responded in unison, "Yes, Father."

The two could tell from Tianbao's attitude that she didn't like these two people, so they were lukewarm towards each other.

They must have made Tianbao unhappy, and they don’t want to pay attention to people who are unhappy or whom Tianbao doesn’t like.

If they were not the princes and princesses of Dayuan, who would care about them?

Lian He tried to hold back but couldn't help looking at Tian Bao. "County Princess, I am the princess of Dayuan, I have a very noble status and position. You didn't even show me courtesy when you met me. Is this your upbringing? You don't know any manners at all."

"Lianhe!" Meng Jiao wanted to slap her.

Several envoys from Dayuan stared at Lianhe and wanted to cover her mouth.

Didn’t you see how Dayuan was trying to please Dayan? It’s obvious that this county lady is extraordinary. She can sit on the same seat with the princess and is looked up to by several princes. Is she a simple person?

As soon as Lian He said this, not only the Emperor, but even Xue Rongyi and the others looked at her unfriendlyly.

“Princess Lianhe may not understand our Ronghua County Lady. Ronghua County Lady is different from others. She doesn’t need to perform formalities even to our father, let alone to us.

Are you more noble than my father? And you want her to bow to you, can you bear it?" Xue Rongyi said with a mocking look on his face.

Lian He's face turned red and white. She wanted to say something but Meng Jiao held her arm tightly, making Lian He almost scream. She felt like her arm was about to break.

"I'm sorry that I didn't know about it in advance." Lianhe apologized to Mengjiao and several messengers in the midst of threats.

Tianbao didn't even look at her. Instead, he was whispering something to Xue Rongyi who was sitting next to him. Being ignored like this, Lianhe felt embarrassed.

After coming out of the palace, Tianbao met the young Ji Chengzhi who was waiting for him at the palace gate.

"Tianbao, long time no see. You have grown up now." Ji Chengzhi is already a fourteen-year-old boy.

Wearing an official uniform and smiling at Tianbao, he looked dignified yet gentle.

"Brother Chengzhi." Tianbao also laughed.

The two walked slowly forward, with Ji Chengzhi doing most of the talking and Tianbao listening.

The servants following behind them looked at their master in shock. Is this still their taciturn master?

Xue Jue took his confidants and several officials on a diplomatic mission to Xilian and was not in the capital.

So even though Tianbao didn't get to see him this time, Ji Chengzhi was secretly very happy.

He didn't expect that the annoying boy he used to hate would become a prince and might even be the future emperor.

It gives him a headache just thinking about the people he will have to serve in the future.

Ji Chengzhi accompanied Tianbao all the way to the gate of the mansion before leaving.

Tianbao promised him that he would visit the teacher tomorrow.

"Miss, I think Ji Chengzhi is special to you." Zhiya said.

Yue Xin glanced at her. She had already noticed that Ji Chengzhi treated the young lady differently.

Tian Bao waved his hands and shook his head. "Don't talk nonsense. We have known each other since we were kids. He is my brother. I saved him, so I must treat him differently. He and I are brother and sister."

Zhiya said, "Oh, I see."

"Tianbao...are you back? Are you tired?" Liu Meihua ran out to greet her and took her arm. "We just went shopping and met a lot of wives of officials.

They pulled us to choose a lot of things. They were really enthusiastic. They also picked several sets of clothes for Li Bai. Li Bai's face was pinched by them until it turned red. "

Tianbao laughed, "Is Li Bai so popular?"

Liu Meihua nodded. "He looks cute and well-behaved, and speaks softly. Everyone likes him when they see him. We like him too, hahaha..."

Following Liu Meihua into the hall, Liu and Qian Xiaoxiao were discussing buying some things to decorate the house. The Chinese New Year was less than two months away, and Li Shubai would be back soon, so the family could finally be reunited again.

The whole family is very happy and in high spirits these days.

Li Bai and Qing Mo sat on the other side, and Li Bai was still rubbing his face.

"Why aren't my dad and elder brother here?" Tianbao asked.

"Your eldest brother took your father and others to visit the farms, fields and shops in the suburbs of Beijing, and let them see these industries." Qian Xiaoxiao replied with a smile.

"It's time to eat, it's time to eat... I'm so hungry, Qingmo, Tianbao, let's eat first." Li Bai saw that the meal had already been placed in the side hall and started shouting quickly.

Qing Mo glanced at him and didn't want to pay attention to him, but Tian Bao smiled and touched his head, "Eat first."

"Let's go, let's go... Let's eat first. We can't let Li Bai starve." Liu Meihua laughed.

*

Meng Jiao already knew that Tianbao had a bad impression of him and was very cold to him, but after they met and talked a few times in the palace, he was no longer annoying.

Lian He would always get close to Su Liaoyun whenever she had nothing to do, which made Su Liaoyun very annoyed.

"Aren't you just afraid of County Lady Ronghua? I am the princess of Dayuan. It's better to be my consort than to be the county lady's servant, right?" Lian He looked at him with a proud expression.

Su Liaoyun looked at her speechlessly and said, "Thank you so much, but no need. I am doing well by the side of the county lady. Besides, I am not a servant. I can come and go as I please. There is no need for the princess to be unworthy of me."

"Su Liaoyun, why are you so twisted? Wouldn't it be good for you to be my consort?"

"I already have someone I like, so Princess, you should choose someone else." Su Liaoyun was about to leave after saying this. Lianhe was very angry and held him tightly to prevent him from leaving.

Su Liaoyun got angry and pushed her away. Lianhe stepped back and fell to the ground.

"Princess..." The maid beside her hurriedly supported Lianhe, and another maid began to blame Su Liaoyun.
