Rebirth: The Fourth Lady Wants to Lie Down

In Niu Hulu Qingran's boudoir, a ray of sunlight shines through the gauze curtains and onto the elegant blue and white floor tiles. The room is filled with a faint scent of incense, which makes people feel relaxed and happy.

At this moment, there was a slight knock on the door, and then the maid Xiaomei came in carrying an exquisite tray with a gorgeous gift box on it.

"Princess, Princess Li sent someone to deliver a gift." Xiaomei placed the tray gently on the table and said softly.

Niu Hulu Qingran was sitting on the couch in front of the window, playing with a jade bracelet in her hand. She looked up at the gift box on the table, a trace of doubt flashed in her eyes, but then she regained her composure. She said lightly, "Thank you."

Seeing this, Xiaomei knew her princess's character, so she said nothing and respectfully stepped aside. Niu Hulu Qingran signaled her to send the person out, and Xiaomei led the gift-giver out of the room.

After everyone left, Xiaomei returned to Niuhulu Qingran and asked softly, "Gege, what does Li Gege mean by this? Why did you suddenly send a gift?"

Niu Hulu Qingran put down the bracelet in her hand, smiled gently, and said: "She doesn't want me to hate her for what happened last night, but she also wants to take this opportunity to show her strength."

Xiaomei was puzzled when she heard this: "What happened last night? Are you talking about the prince staying at Li Gege's place last night?"

Niu Hulu Qingran nodded and laughed contemptuously: "Humph, she thought that sending some gifts could calm my anger? How could such a good thing happen."

She stood up, walked to the table, opened the gift box, and inside was an exquisite embroidered robe. She gently stroked the pattern of the robe with her hand, and a hint of coldness flashed in her eyes.

"Princess, isn't Princess Li a little too arrogant?" the younger sister couldn't help but say.

Niu Hulu Qingran sneered and said, "Arrogant? She is not qualified yet. One day, I will make her pay the price."

After she finished speaking, she put the embroidered robe back into the gift box and closed the lid. Then she turned and walked to the window, looking at the blue sky and white clouds outside the window, and she had already made up her mind.

She knew that the battle in the palace had just begun, and she, Niu Hulu Qingran, would never let anyone gain the upper hand easily. She would use her wisdom and means to move towards victory step by step.

……

As night fell, the lights in the palace gradually lit up, illuminating the bluestone paths and glazed tile eaves with warmth and brightness. In Niu Hulu Qingran's boudoir, there was a busy and orderly scene.

The maid Xiaomei was busy in the room, while Niuhulu Qingran was sitting in front of the dressing table, carefully selecting the jewelry to wear tonight. She turned her head and said to Xiaolian beside her: "Xiaomei, take out the new dress I made, I want to change into it."

Xiaomei heard this and immediately walked to the closet and carefully took out the new dress. It was a light pink cheongsam embroidered with delicate peony patterns, which was both elegant and noble.

Niu Hulu Qingran took the clothes and gently stroked the smooth fabric with a satisfied smile on her face. While changing her clothes, she said, "Xiaomei, go to the kitchen and tell them to prepare some dishes and snacks that the Fourth Master likes. I want to treat him well tonight."

Xiaomei looked at Niu Hulu Qingran in surprise and asked curiously, "How did Gege know that the Fourth Master would come tonight?"

Niu Hulu Qingran smiled slightly, with a glimmer of intelligence in her eyes. She explained, "The Fourth Master came to my place last night, and he will definitely choose one between Wu Yazhixi and me tonight. But the Fourth Master was obviously not satisfied with Wu Yazhixi's performance last night, so the possibility of her being chosen is very small. Then, the only one left is me."

After listening to Niu Hulu Qingran's analysis, Xiaomei still had some doubts in her heart, but she still responded respectfully with a "yes" and turned to go to the kitchen to give instructions.

As night fell, the lights in the palace became brighter. Yinzhen appeared outside Niuhulu Qingran's courtyard. He was dressed in a black robe, with an imposing manner and steady steps.

Seeing this, Xiaomei hurried forward and saluted, saying, "Good luck to the Fourth Master."

Yinzhen nodded, and through the crack in the door, he saw the brightly lit room. With an idea in his mind, he stepped inside.

Niuhulu Qingran had already changed into new clothes and was sitting at the table waiting for Yinzhen's arrival. When she saw Yinzhen coming in, she immediately stood up to greet him with a sweet smile on her face.

"Fourth Master, you're here." she said softly.

Yinzhen looked at her with a glimmer of admiration in his eyes. He walked to the table and sat down, looking around the warm and elegantly decorated room, and a warm feeling welled up in his heart.

"You have decorated the place well tonight," Yinzhen said.

Niu Hulu Qingran smiled and said, "Knowing that the Fourth Master was coming, I made some special preparations. I hope the Fourth Master likes it."

Yinzhen nodded, and the two chatted while tasting the food. Yinzhen was very pleased with Niuhulu Qingran's gentleness and talent, and Yinzhen's wisdom and humor also made Niuhulu Qingran admire him.

That night, Yinzhen stayed in Niuhulu Qingran's boudoir. Niuhulu Qingran also successfully won Yinzhen's heart with her intelligence and unique charm.
