On the platform, the flames gradually died out, leaving only a pile of black ashes.

"It's a pity that I failed."

"He's not going to die, is he?"

"I hope we won't get into trouble. I'm so scared..."

The guests' faces were solemn, all the voices died down, and everyone's heart was shrouded in gloom.

At this moment, golden light burst out in the air, like a suddenly rising sun, dazzling people to tears.

Everyone covered their faces, and when they looked up at the platform again, the young man with a face full of paint had changed into gorgeous clothes, and was standing in the air with a pair of glittering wings spread out behind him.

Like the descendants of gods who came down from heaven to earth.

Quiet, very quiet.

But suddenly, all the guests stood up, and applause and cheers rang out like a tide, quickly drowning out the Anxiang Garden where the audience was watching the show.

The actor who was reborn from the ashes touched his chest gracefully and saluted, and amid waves of cheers, he glanced vaguely at the girl in the front row who was out of tune with the others.

Lu Ningshuang lowered her head and covered her chest, her heart beating wildly.

The noisy voices and the smell of burning grease made her stomach churn and her head feel dizzy.

Damn!

This rotten body!

Would he collapse on his own before the danger comes?

Ruyi is a first-class maidservant beside Princess Anle. She has long memorized the preferences and taboos of her master's friends.

In order to take good care of those people, she prepared tea herself.

"Be steady, everyone. If you drop something, I'll teach you a lesson!"

Seeing that they had climbed the stairs and were only a few steps away from the observation deck, Ruyi waved to stop everyone and took out the wine jug from the tray of the palace servant in the front.

Just as he was about to go forward to pour wine for the four masters, a reckless man rushed in.

She staggered forward, and the wine splashed directly onto Lu Ningshuang's shoulder.

"hiss--"

Lu Ningshuang looked back instantly, the coldness in her eyes was frightening.

Ruyi knelt down instantly, "Second Miss, calm down!"

The performance of rebirth from the ashes came to an end. Princess Pingxi was the first to look back. Seeing Lu Ningshuang with a wrong look on her face, she hurried over to support her.

"Lu Xiaoer, what's wrong with you? Why do you look so ugly?"

"I seemed to see Ruyi pouring the wine on Ningshuang..."

Second Miss Su spoke weakly.

"what?"

Princess Anle was very angry and began to blame Ruyi.

Miss Xie touched Lu Ningshuang's forehead with the back of her hand, felt the cold sweat on her forehead, and said worriedly:

"Shuang'er, you don't seem to be feeling well, and your clothes are soiled. After you change your clothes, go and take a rest. Anle, we are here to accompany you."

Princess Pingxi responded:

"Yes, Lu Xiaoer, it's already a great honor for you to play with everyone for such a long time, don't force yourself!"

After scolding the palace maid, Princess Anle squatted in front of Lu Ningshuang and looked up at her, her black pearl-like eyes filled with her reflection.

"Sister Shuang, it's all my fault. You came here happily to celebrate my birthday, but something like this happened to spoil my fun.

It just so happens that the Clothing Bureau has made two new sets of winter clothes. Sister Shuang, please pick one you like and put it on to avoid catching a cold.

It's very noisy outside, why don't you go to my yard and take a rest? I'll have someone call you later if there's something fun to do."

Miss Xie had already asked someone to call Bai Zhi over, and Anle's maid Chenxiang was also waiting by the side.

In fact, Lu Ningshuang was reluctant to leave.

The novel describes that she was the one who used the trick of throwing wine to change clothes. The other party was an inconspicuous little palace maid, but now she is the first-class palace maid beside Princess Anle.

According to Ruyi's confession, she was bumped by someone who suddenly crossed the way and the wine was spilled on her. She was very terrified, fearing that she would be sent back to the palace to study again.

The elements of the accident generally matched, and she couldn't be sure whether the alcohol she was splashed with was contaminated by the wine.

If so, the journey will be full of dangers.

If not, the future is uncertain.

The most important thing is that she wants to stay in Anxiang Garden and take control of all unexpected events at the banquet so that she can make the most favorable decision for herself.

Unfortunately, it is extremely disrespectful to stay at the banquet in a dirty state.

Moreover, Princess Anle's clique took this sickly girl too seriously. Take Princess Pingxi for example, they wanted to hold her horizontally in their arms.

Lu Ningshuang couldn't persuade them and could only follow Chenxiang to the backyard.

"I have prepared two sets of clothes myself. There is no need to dirty the princess's new clothes."

Lu Ningshuang instructed Fuling to get clothes from the carriage. No matter how Chenxiang tried to comfort her, she insisted.

Through the original owner's memory, she was sure that Princess Anle would not have bad intentions, but too many people were involved in the process of making the winter clothes and delivering them to the princess's mansion, so there was no way to guarantee that there would be no problems.

Besides, there are many guests and attendants at today's birthday banquet, and who knows if the clothes will be tampered with?

"Miss Lu is almost here. The ground is a little slippery. Please be careful."

Chenxiang reminded gently, and as Lu Ningshuang passed through the archway with hanging flowers, she heard the sound of people talking.

"What direction is that?"

She asked casually.

Chen Xiang introduced it in a nice voice:

“It’s a bamboo forest with a small waterfall beside it and a pavilion built on the waterfall. The environment is very quiet and peaceful.

My princess likes to go there to paint and practice the piano, but it’s cold today, so she rarely goes there.”

Bamboo forest, waterfall, pavilion...

Isn't this the place where the future prince consort had an affair and murdered Xiao Xunlu?

The Ninth Prince Consort Maguan Lingyun is the son of Master Shangguan's second wife. He seems to be a handsome and modest gentleman, but he is actually a promiscuous person in private.

He had a secret unknown to others, which once made Madam Shangguan so angry that she was bedridden. That secret was that he liked men.

Shangguan Lingyun's sweetheart is Shen Qian, a tutor in the cabinet. Shen Qian's family suffered a disaster when he was young, and Master Shangguan protected his teacher's only grandson out of the relationship between master and apprentice.

Later, the Shen family was cleared of all charges and the emperor restored the Shen family's old house. Shen Qian left the Shangguan family and disappeared. He made a stunning debut in the examination and entered the court.

Shangguan Lingyun fell in love with Shen Qian when he was down and out. Many years later, he met Bai Yueguang at the birthday party of the princess's fiancée. Feeling bitter, he drank to drown his sorrows. The alcohol emboldened him, so he hugged Shen Qian, confessed his love to him, and then kissed him.

Shen Qian was extremely angry about this, and even if he had to be ungrateful, he was determined to cut off all ties with the Shangguan family.

After Shen Qian left, Shangguan Lingyun went crazy and randomly pulled someone to measure it.

The scene of the future prince consort V1 female and 1 male was too unbearable. The servants in the princess's mansion were worried that the matter would get to the ears of the guests and make their princess lose face, so they secretly told Xiao Xunlu.

Xiao Xunlu was furious and went there alone, but was pushed into the water during the argument.

Shangguan Lingyun was half sober, but thinking of Shen Qian's rejection, he blamed Xiao Xunlu for the other party's rejection of him.

He knocked his fiancée, who was struggling in the water, unconscious with a stone and then ran away.

The innocent and lovely Ninth Princess died at the hands of a scumbag.

Lu Ningshuang couldn't help but say:

"No matter what happens, you must stay by your princess' side."

She is not kind, but she hates scum.
