After the noble lady was reborn, the whole mansion begged her for forgiveness
Chapter 61 Entering the Palace
Along the way, Qin Suling closed her eyes and rested, with a hint of tranquility between her brows, as if the hustle and bustle of the outside world had nothing to do with her.
Her breathing was long and even, and every breath seemed to be a silent conversation with the fate that was about to change.
Qin Sulan sat aside, her hands gently folded on her knees, her eyes showing both uneasiness about the unknown and a desire for change.
She knew very well that once she stepped into the magnificent palace, it would be a crucial turning point in her life. The anticipation in her heart was like the buds of early spring, ready to sprout.
The carriage moved slowly, and the wheels rolled over the bluestone road, making a steady and rhythmic sound, which formed a sharp contrast with the waves in Qin Sulan's heart.
She prayed silently, hoping that this moment of tranquility could turn into strength to break free from the shackles in the future, allowing her to shine brightly as a concubine's daughter.
Finally, the carriage stopped in front of the majestic palace gate. The solemn momentum made Qin Sulan's heart tighten involuntarily.
The car door opened slightly, and a breeze blew across the face, mixed with the unique floral and sandalwood scent of the palace, which lifted one's spirits.
In an instant, a group of noble ladies in gorgeous clothes came fluttering in like colorful butterflies, surrounded them, smiled and competed to flatter them.
Qin Suling, as the daughter of the prime minister and the princess's favorite, naturally became the focus of the feast.
She was wearing an elegant brocade dress with only a simple jade hairpin in her hair, but it could not conceal her otherworldly temperament.
Facing everyone's enthusiasm, she responded one by one, her words were gentle but measured, and her behavior revealed the calmness and elegance of a lady from a noble family.
Not far away, a group of young gentlemen were standing or sitting, secretly looking over here from time to time, trying to catch a glimpse of the true appearance of Qin Suling, who was rumored to be the "goddess".
Although Qin Suling and Qin Sulan were not good at this, they tried their best to maintain a decent smile and try to make themselves appear less embarrassed.
"Who is this……"
After some greetings, everyone's eyes finally fell on Qin Suyu, with a bit of curiosity and scrutiny.
Qin Suling smiled slightly and introduced them in a gentle voice: "These are my two sisters, Su Yu and Su Lan."
As soon as these words were spoken, the atmosphere in the field changed subtly. The enthusiasm of those noble ladies who were originally enthusiastic faded a lot after they learned that Qin Sulan was just a concubine's daughter.
But there are also those who don't know the truth, and seeing Qin Suyu's outstanding beauty, they still maintain their enthusiasm for her.
Qin Suyu felt both proud and uneasy as she felt this sudden attention.
She thought to herself that she was supposed to be a shining pearl in this prosperous world, and now she finally had the chance to shine.
At this moment, a clear voice broke the surrounding noise: "Sister?"
Qin Suling looked in the direction of the voice and saw Wu Yuan, wearing a goose yellow embroidered skirt, walking towards her gracefully with a gentle smile on her face. She was Wu Zhihua's younger sister and the real jewel in the Wu family's crown.
Qin Suling had her own thoughts about the past life, but at this moment, she just responded with a smile: "Sister Wu, long time no see."
Wu Yuan affectionately took Qin Suling's arm, and the two walked side by side, as if they were good friends who had not seen each other for many years.
However, Qin Suling knew very well that beneath this intimacy lay their respective thoughts and calculations.
She calmly withdrew her arm, keeping a proper distance from Wu Yuan, and at the same time threw a hint at the maid Jinxiu.
Jinxiu understood what he meant, turned around and went back to invite Qin Suyu to enter the palace together.
Qin Suyu was enjoying the feeling of being surrounded by people when she was suddenly interrupted. Although she was dissatisfied, when she thought of the special treatment she was about to receive, her unhappiness disappeared.
She suppressed her smile, said goodbye to everyone one by one, and then followed Jinxiu's footsteps and set foot on the road leading deep into the palace.
On that warm spring afternoon, the sun shines through the intricate palace eaves, casting mottled shadows, adding a touch of gentleness to this magnificent palace.
Wu Yuan's aunt, as the emperor's new favorite concubine this year, had an unimpeded and convenient decree in her hand, which was like the softest breeze in spring, gently blowing away the dust on Qin Suling and Wu Yuan's road ahead.
The two walked side by side, their steps light as if they were walking on the clouds.
Wu Yuan opened her red lips slightly, her voice was as delicate as silk, with a hint of apology and sincerity: "Sister is so humble, I, as your younger sister, feel a little guilty. I just came back from the countryside yesterday, and brother was eager to tell me about your illness, and his words were full of concern."
In addition to the obvious concern in her words, there was also a hint of imperceptible coquettishness, like the occasional breeze in spring, with a bit of playfulness and coquettishness.
Qin Suling turned her head and her eyes fell gently on the petite, rosy-faced partner beside her.
Wu Yuan's face is like a newly blooming peach blossom, round and full, revealing the purity and tenderness of a baby, making people want to protect her.
Those eyes were as bright as the brightest stars in the night sky, sparkling with pure and innocent light, as if they could see into people's hearts, yet were not tainted by dust.
At this time, Qin Suyu hurried over with a bit of urgency in her steps. She first bowed to Wu Yuan, but did not notice the subtle difference in the address.
Wu Yuan's lips curled up into a faint smile, and her eyes gently swept across Qin Suyu. The gentleness instantly withered, replaced by a faint alienation and arrogance. She whispered: "Second Miss Qin, you should call me Miss Wu."
As soon as these words came out, Qin Suyu's body trembled slightly, and she looked at Qin Suling involuntarily, with a gleam of help in her eyes.
Qin Suling took it calmly. She was well aware of the strict etiquette of the aristocratic family and also knew that Qin Suyu had no intention of offending her.
She didn't say anything, but just signaled with her eyes that Qin Suyu shouldn't mind it.
Seeing this, Qin Suyu was angry, but she had to swallow her anger and changed her words in a low voice: "Ms. Wu."
Seeing this, Wu Yuan couldn't help but laugh out loud. The laughter was clear and pleasant, echoing in the hall like a silver bell.
"Haha, it's just a joke, why are you taking it so seriously? It's so boring."
She thought to herself that although Qin Suyu was somewhat pretty, she was ultimately not worthy of being in the upper class as she lacked the composure and bearing.
"We should hurry up and go. The princess's banquet is about to begin, so it's best to arrive early."
Wu Yuan said as she walked forward, with a hint of joking and anticipation in her words, "Today's banquet may have many interesting things happen, so it will be worth the trip."
Qin Suling's gaze lingered on Song Ci's departing back for a moment, then he turned to Qin Suyu and said softly, "Let's leave too."
The three of them walked into the hall one by one, and saw that the hall was already crowded and bustling.
Male and female guests sat at separate tables, all dressed in elegant clothes and talking and laughing, creating a peaceful scene.
Although Qin Sulan was a concubine's daughter, she was able to sit in a more prominent position because of Qin Suling.
When she first entered the palace, she was full of curiosity and novelty about everything around her, especially the men's seats. She wondered how many prominent figures were hidden among them, which made her yearn for it and she would secretly glance over there from time to time.
As the sister of the Chief Justice, Wu Yuan had a noble status, but she did not choose to sit next to Qin Suling. Instead, she chose to sit slightly behind her, diagonally facing her.
She raised her teacup from a distance and greeted Qin Suling, then turned around and immersed herself in a lively conversation with the people around her. Her calmness and confidence could not be ignored.
Qin Suling responded with a courtesy and took a sip of the fragrant tea in his hand with an indifferent expression.
The aroma of tea curled up and lingered in her heart. She thought to herself: In her past life, I never expected that someone as casual and unrestrained as Qin Suyu would have such an indissoluble bond with Wu Zhihua.
Things in the world are unpredictable and people’s hearts are hard to predict. What kind of changes and surprises will happen at today’s banquet?
Everyone in the hall had their own thoughts and showed their own attitude.
