For a period of time afterwards, Zhen Yurao stayed indoors, unlike before when she would go out to play every day.

Ruolan continued to worship Buddha day and night, while Zhen Yurao started reading medical books.

The Thirteenth Master came several times and was a little surprised to find that Ruoxi was no longer as free and unrestrained as before.

After hearing this, Lu Wu said, "The selection will be held soon. I'm afraid Miss Ruoxi has calmed down."

"If I really enter the palace and become a concubine, I'm afraid I'll suffer for my erratic personality."

"If you are not selected, Miss Ruoxi will have to serve in the palace for a few more years before she can leave."

"The fate of women from the Eight Banners is always rough."

After hearing this, the Thirteenth Master began to worry about Ruoxi's future.

The Eighth Master came to Ruolan's place several times later, but Zhen Yurao acted like a well-behaved aunt and didn't give the Eighth Master any chance at all.

On this New Year's Eve, the Eighth Master did not stay up with his wife, Fu Jin, but came to Ruolan's side.

In her previous life, Zhen Huan was afraid that Zhen Yurao would suffer in Prince's Mansion, so she gave her many prescriptions.

Zhen Yurao had already prepared everything. She served a bowl of soup to Ruolan and Ba Ye respectively.

There was an impotent drug put into Mr. Ba's soup.

After the three of them finished drinking the soup, Master Ba praised: "This soup is good."

Zhen Yurao didn't say anything, Ruolan said, "If Lord Beile thinks it's good, then use one more bowl."

Ruolan, who usually kept silent, spoke up. Zhen Yurao knew that Ruolan was doing it for her sister.

In order to make her sister's life better after entering the palace, Ruolan, a cold person, began to try to please the Eighth Master.

Ruolan had no idea that the Eighth Master had set his sights on Ruoxi.

During the Lantern Festival, Qiaohui took Zhen Yurao out to see the lanterns.

Zhen Yurao looked at Qiaohui and said, "Qiaohui, if you want to go out and see the lights, go ahead. I'm going to accompany my sister."

Qiao Hui got the task and said without giving up: "Miss, you have been staying in the mansion these days, and you don't look as happy as before."

"I heard that there are more lights today than before, so it should be more lively."

"Miss loves the hustle and bustle. It would be a pity if you don't go and see it."

Zhen Yurao got up and went to find Ruolan, and Qiaohui stopped talking.

When Ruolan saw Zhen Yurao coming, she asked, "It's so lively outside today, why didn't you go out to have fun?"

Zhen Yurao smiled and sat down, saying, "A banquet is held in the brocade street, and the orchid jar is gorgeous in the early years. The gorgeous colors divide the earth from afar, and the brilliant lights adorn the sky from afar."

"The lights in the northwest are more brilliant than those in the capital. When I lived in the barracks, I saw the most different lights."

Ruolan was also reminded of her memories. That year, the lights that Qingshan showed her were the most beautiful and brilliant.

Zhen Yurao continued, "Sister, we could have galloped on horseback across that vast land."

Ruolan was brought back to her senses by Zhen Yurao's voice and nodded, "Yes, it was originally possible."

Zhen Yurao continued, "If you want, you can do it."

Ruolan turned to look at Zhen Yurao and said thoughtfully: "Ruoxi, you..."

Zhen Yurao took Ruolan's hand and said, "Father fought hard on the front line not to let you be trapped in the backyard and depressed all day. And not to let me go to the palace to be a concubine or a maid."

"It is better to live a life full of excitement and joy than to live a life worse than death."

"Sister, you don't want the general to see you grieving all day and dying with regrets in your heart, right?"

Ruolan looked at the screen inside the room and nodded slowly.

Zhen Yurao also looked at the screen, but thought of the bitter and cold days in Ningguta. It was also such bitter and cold days that made Zhen Yurao lose her ability to bear children.
