Mrs. Wang slapped her palm on the table, causing the set of cups on the table to tremble with a bang: "How unbecoming of a girl to come back so late from playing!"

Bai Lan sighed to herself that she was smart enough to change into men's clothes on the carriage in advance, otherwise she would be the one kneeling on the ground crying.

She lowered her head and looked like she was sincerely admitting her mistake, "My daughter realizes her mistake. It's rare that she goes out to play and forgets the time."

This daughter has never been scolded since she was a child. When Wang saw Bai Lan sincerely admitting her mistake, she couldn't bear to scold her anymore, and her frown slightly relaxed.

Seeing Wang's relaxed expression, Bai Lan jumped to Wang's side, took Wang's hand and said coquettishly: "Mom, please don't be angry with Lan'er. Lan'er will come back early next time!"

Wang poked Bai Lan's forehead with her index finger: "Next time, let your father scold you in person."

Wang raised her hand, and Ju Ping, who was behind her, came forward with something in her hands.

"Let's get down to business. These are the clothes you will wear at the Hundred Flowers Festival tomorrow. I specially chose plain and elegant fabrics to cut you clothes. To be honest, I don't want you to marry into the royal family. Your aunt..."

Speaking of her aunt, Mrs. Wang couldn't help crying.

Aunt, Bai Lan remembers her aunt Wang Xingyue, who was the most beautiful woman in the country and had a beautiful heart. After entering the palace, she was favored continuously. In just one year, she was promoted from a noble to a concubine.

After she became pregnant the next year, the emperor doted on her and named her Concubine Ning. She was the only one in the harem to receive such favor.

But for some unknown reason, my aunt suffered from severe dystocia, one dead and two dead.

Bai Lan placed her small hands on Wang's, feeling warm and secure like an adult, "Mom, don't be sad. When Lan'er becomes successful in the future, she will definitely seek justice for her aunt."

Wang's eyebrows moved slightly. She knew about the harem. How could it be said that her sister's death and two lives could be explained by dystocia? Why didn't she want to seek justice?

However, as a prostitute, what can she do?

She rubbed Bai Lan's head and said, "Now I just want the people around me to be safe, especially you and Zimeng. I think my aunt thinks the same way."

Bai Lan nodded obediently and said, "Don't worry, mother, Lan'er will be careful. Mother, please rest early."

Mrs. Wang nodded and returned to her room with the help of Granny Yang.

After seeing Wang off, Bai Lan ordered Shanchuan Shanshui to prepare hot water for a bath. Taking advantage of her free time, she took out paper and pen and started drawing the furnishings on the second floor of Nianci Hall.

She's using the second floor as her own personal operating room, which will come in handy soon.

After washing, Bai Lan got into bed comfortably and went to sleep.

She was so tired today that Bai Lan fell asleep quickly. This was another night of dreams that she had, the same bloody and frightening dreams.

On the second day of the Hundred Flowers Party, Bai Lan dragged her exhausted body and dozed off in front of the dressing table, letting the mountains and rivers put her makeup on.

"Miss, you can't doze off like this when you go to the palace. You'll be laughed at. Those who don't know think the Bai family's daughter is uneducated."

Bai Lan had a headache as she thought about the landscape.

"I know, I know!" As she spoke, she dozed off a few more times, and Shanchuan Shanshui shook her head helplessly.

The young lady has had a restless sleep every day since she fell into the water.

Bai Lan saw herself wearing ancient makeup for the first time. Compared to her previous appearance without makeup, she looked more elegant and dignified.

The first and second beauties in the imperial capital had to kneel down and call her daddy in front of her face. No wonder Bai Mei was jealous of her.

The queen in her previous life chose her to be the crown princess precisely because of her identity and face, so she couldn't show her face at this Hundred Flowers Banquet.

Walking out of Canglan Pavilion, I happened to meet Baizhu and Baimei. Bai Zhu chose a light green gauze dress with a waistband. It was elegant and quiet, and suited her temperament very well.

Bai Mei, on the other hand, wore a bright red floor-length dress with wide sleeves. It was grand and grand. Those who didn't know thought she was going to get married.

Bai Lan took the plan to heart and secretly rejoiced: If you want to take the lead, then as you wish!

The three of them walked side by side, with Bai Zhu always on the left, Bai Mei on the right, and several girls following at a distance.

Bai Lan put her left hand deep into the cuff, then shook her sleeve and patted her back and forth. Bai Mei couldn't help covering her nose when she patted her: "Sisters are so elegantly dressed, but it seems that I am deliberately trying to steal the limelight."

Bai Lan smiled lightly: "How could it be possible? My sister is beautiful and beautiful. No matter how beautiful her clothes are, they are just the icing on the cake. They are just the scars on my face?" Bai Lan looked surprised.

Bai Mei touched her slippery face, and the corners of her mouth became even more curved.

"The doctor Ye from Beixi Street really deserves his reputation. He was completely healed in just one day and his skin is better than before."

At this time, her mind was filled with images of her stunning the audience with her plum dance.

Crown Princess? Queen? It's all in her pocket.

Bai Lan almost laughed out loud: Yes, yes, and he was killed for three thousand taels.

Three thousand taels of magic medicine is nothing more than some anti-swelling medicine, plus a box of concealer powder. If Bai Mei is willing, she would like to make it for her every day.

Bai Lan's eyes lit up, and she suddenly thought of something.

Bai Zhu poked his head out from Bai Lan's left side: "But isn't my sister grounded?"

Bai Mei gouged out her look, and Bai Zhu shrank his head back in fright, lowering his head and not daring to say a word.

Only Bai Lan and Bai Mei knew that Zheng begged Bai Chengyang all night for her to attend the Hundred Flowers Banquet. In the end, Wang couldn't stand it and interceded for Zheng, and Bai Mei had the opportunity to appear.

The three of them chatted and arrived at the gate. Wang was already sitting in the carriage waiting. Seeing Bai Mei dressed in red, she couldn't help but frown.

There is a lot of space in the carriage, even for four people.

Wang closed her eyes and rested her mind. Although Bai Mei often participated in poetry gatherings, it was only a small occasion for her daughter's family. This was the first time for her to attend such a large gathering in the palace, so she couldn't help but feel nervous. Like Bai Zhu, she sat upright. just.

Bai Lan, on the other hand, held her cheek and looked at the passing pedestrians and scenery outside the carriage.

The road to the palace was in the opposite direction from the shopping trip two days ago. The scenery along the way was very strange to her. The closer she got to the imperial city, the deserted it became, and it was full of guards.

The wheels squeaked on the stone road and soon stopped beside a high wall.

Not far from the wall, a large row of official family members in colorful clothes stood at the gate. The four of them got out of the carriage with the help of the maids.

The nun at the gate shouted at the top of her lungs: "Those coming later, please line up and prepare your palace cards to enter in an orderly manner!"

At this time, a carriage with exquisite exterior decoration stopped at the gate. Nanny smiled and bowed to greet her: "Princess Qingyan, please come!"

On the carriage, a tall and thin girl walked down, with an elegant and noble temperament. The two jade bracelets on her wrists jingled. Under the guidance of her grandma, she took the lead into the palace in full view of everyone.

She was the only princess in the Ning Kingdom, and Emperor Tianxuan's six sons did not have a daughter. She looked down upon Princess Qingyan like a ball in her eyes and doted on her lawlessly.

The six princes obeyed her even more. As long as she was Uncle Huang, even the prince would call her aunt.

For such a noble princess, there is no need to queue up, and no one will stop her even if she brings weapons into the palace.

The crowd let out waves of envious sighs, and so did Bai Mei, staring straight at Princess Qingyan's retreating back.

However, she was not jealous, but she was quickly turning her mind, thinking about how to get on the princess, and how to get to the prince through the princess to achieve her own goals.
