However, now is not the time to show off your appearance. After all, you can't be too showy...
Lin Qingwan took out a piece of tulle from the drawer, arranged it dexterously with her slender fingers, and quickly tied it on her face.
Seeing this, Chun Mian said with some confusion: "Miss, why did you cover your face with a veil?"
After speaking, she walked to the side of the bronze mirror and fixed her eyes on Lin Qingwan. "If those people in the backyard saw it, they would definitely be amazed at the change of the young lady. Maybe after seeing it..."
At this point, she probably realized that what she said was inappropriate, so she quickly covered her mouth with one hand and coughed lightly.
Lin Qingwan smiled slightly, "Sometimes it's not a good thing if your appearance suddenly becomes gorgeous. It's better to cover it up to avoid trouble."
Chun Mian still didn't understand, but when Lin Qingwan said this, she still nodded.
At this moment, a sound of gongs and drums suddenly came from outside the yard, which sounded very lively.
Lin Qingwan subconsciously looked up and saw a few servants hurriedly passing by carrying something in their hands. She turned around and asked, "What happened outside? Why is it so busy?"
"This..." Chun Mian looked confused, and after a long while she whispered: "Today is Princess Yuanmin's birthday, and Concubine Jing specially sent someone to send a message, asking the prince to take care of it..."
The more he spoke, the lower his voice became, and finally he lost his voice completely.
Lin Qingwan understood. Recalling the obstacles that Yuan Min had put in her way since she came to this world, she sneered and had an idea in an instant, "Go and take out all the clothes in the closet and let me take a look."
"Miss, what are you going to do..."
"What are you doing? It's Princess Yuanmin's birthday. As her sister-in-law, I naturally want to go out and congratulate her."
Chun Mian was about to say something else, but the woman had already taken out the hairpin from the box and put it on her bun.
A quarter of an hour later, looking at the various colorful clothes on the bed, Lin Qingwan unceremoniously chose the complicated water red robe embroidered with begonia patterns, and even made some eyebrows in the mirror. The already bright cheeks became even brighter, making people unable to take their eyes away.
After cleaning herself up, she took Chun Mian and walked out to the door in a swaggering manner.
Two nuns with unkind expressions were guarding the exit of the courtyard. When they saw the two coming out, they looked at each other and exchanged glances.
Lin Qingwan was wearing extremely colorful clothes today, and she was walking even more menacingly, looking like she was looking for trouble. Today is Princess Yuanmin’s birthday, so there can’t be any trouble.
The two of them stretched out their hands to stop Lin Qingwan and Chun Mian, "The prince said that the princess is not allowed to leave this courtyard for even half a step, and the princess is asked to go back."
"What if I have to go out today?" The woman raised her eyebrows slightly. Although she was wearing a veil, her arrogance and disdain could still be seen.
"If the princess insists on leaving, then don't blame us for being rude." Grandma's tone was cold, as if she was about to take action in the next second.
Lin Qingwan laughed and glanced at the sky. His sleeves moved slightly, and some white powder flew out in the air and dispersed in an instant.
The two nuns looked at each other again. Before they could make any move, they felt dizzy and lost consciousness in an instant.
Looking at the two people lying on the ground, Chun Mian's pupils dilated and she didn't react for a while, "Miss, they..."
"They are fine, they are just under the influence of my drug. They will wake up naturally after the drug wears off."
Lin Qingwan walked forward as she spoke, seemingly impatient. Looking at her young lady's expression of wanting to do something, although Chun Mian was a little scared, she was more eager to try. Who let the princess always bully them?
Today's birthday banquet was indeed very large. From the backyard to the front hall, almost everything that could be seen with the naked eye was decorated.
Chun Mian was a little indignant and said in a very low voice: "Our young lady is obviously the princess, is this pomp and circumstance meant to slap us in the face?"
Lin Qingwan couldn't help but said in her heart that Chun Mian was a silly girl. Who in the palace regarded her as a serious princess?
In this case, don't blame her for being rude today.
As soon as I walked to the entrance of the front hall, I saw guests coming and going with smiles on their faces.
While they were drinking wine, Xuan Qianchen was still wearing a black gown, and the expression on his face melted slightly, no longer so cold and ruthless. Yuan Min was wearing a pink shirt, embroidered with exquisite and beautiful patterns, and the jewelry on her head was very complicated, which made her look smart and cute.
The two stood side by side. Whenever someone came to toast Xuan Qianchen, Yuan Min would always look back at the man with a gentle look.
For those who didn’t know, they thought they were a couple.
Princess Yuanmin deliberately made people misunderstand. She didn't know what was on Xuan Qianchen's clothes. She leaned forward slightly, quickly closed the distance between the two, and reached out to catch it in full view of everyone.
Xuan Qianchen subconsciously stepped back, but she said softly: "Brother Chen, don't move. If the guests see dirty things on the clothes, people will probably laugh if word gets out."
In Xuan Qianchen's eyes, Yuan Min was just like a little sister, so when he heard these words, he actually stabilized his body and did not make any resistance.
The guests looked at each other tacitly, but no one broke the relationship, and their eyes were filled with amusement.
Just when the atmosphere was becoming increasingly ambiguous, Lin Qingwan sneered and walked in from the door with a swagger. His calm eyes fell on the two of them.
"Princess Yuanmin, today is your birthday, I'm late, you are so gentle and kind, you probably won't care about me, right?"
The unclear atmosphere dissipated in an instant. Everyone turned around and their eyes fell on Lin Qingwan.
Xuan Qianchen and Yuan Min were both stunned for a second. Their expressions changed surprisingly in the same way. They went from happy just now to surprise and doubt in just a moment.
The people watching were even more surprised. You looked at me and I looked at you, and couldn't help but whisper.
"Why is she here? Still so angry?"
"Humph, Lin Qingwan has always been arrogant and domineering. If he doesn't show off in such a scene, he will naturally feel uncomfortable."
"Tsk, I thought things would change after getting married, but I didn't expect it to be like this."
"..."
The unpleasant discussion spread and not only reached Lin Qingwan's ears, Xuan Qianchen could hear it clearly.
His face was cold and he looked at the woman motionless, his fists even clenched inch by inch. After Lin Qingwan took another step forward, he angrily shouted, "Who told you to come out? Go back quickly!"
What a disgrace!
Unfortunately, Lin Qingwan's expression did not change. Instead, she raised her eyebrows and said, "I am the mistress of the palace. Why can't I attend such an occasion? If word spread, I would think that the palace has no rules."
