Princess Taiping is a fun-loving person and holds many banquets every year. In fact, she just wants to meet one person and has no legitimate reason, so she can only hold banquets to achieve her goal.
And this person is Mr. Bu Ran, who has a notorious reputation but is also very talented.
Princess Taiping also knew that Young Master Buran was the Prince Regent's favorite. He lived in the Prince Regent's house despite his unknown origins, eating and using the Prince Regent's things. The Prince Regent still obeyed him.
But the other person is so good-looking, he is the most beautiful man in Dajin! What woman wouldn't be moved? The other women were persuaded by the regent to quit, but Princess Taiping had become a demon in her heart and felt that one day she would correct Mr. Buran.
She also invited Mr. Buran to the lotus banquet this time, so today she dressed herself up like a peacock. She was piled with all kinds of rare jewelry gifted by her father, just like a walking jewelry store.
She was also wearing a pink and purple Sichuan brocade today. Her clothes were fluttering in the breeze, and her maids praised her for being like a fairy.
Princess Taiping is very confident in herself. Although she is not the most beautiful, she is the most distinguished unmarried girl in the entire Jin Dynasty. She and Prince Murong Yun are both descendants of the empress.
The ladies and gentlemen from the capital who received the invitation all arrived one by one. Today, everyone was dressed up carefully, wearing their most beautiful new clothes and wearing various new gestures. It was more like a banquet than a banquet. A show of beauty.
They all want to show their best side to the people in the capital.
All women in the Jin Dynasty can study, and women who study are respected. There will also be various games at this lotus banquet to allow women to show off their talents.
The former Bai Yunlian became famous in one fell swoop by using famous lines from several ancient poets, and became the most talented woman in the capital.
Today, she also wants to rely on her ancestors' poems again to make herself known to the princes in the capital, and she also wants to choose a prince or prince who is slightly inferior to the prince as her husband.
Not long after Bai Lingyue's carriage arrived, Bai Yunlian and Bai Zixiang's carriages also arrived. The people standing at the door to greet him all rushed towards Mr. Bai's carriage, but no one paid any attention to Bai Lingyue.
Bai Lingyue was not angry either, and walked inside with Xiao Taohong and Yuan Bao. When she reached the door, she met another bejeweled woman.
"Hey, isn't this the legitimate daughter of the Bai Mansion? These people with no discernment are passionate about a concubine, and they are... tut, tut, tut, tut."
This bejeweled woman is none other than Lin Xiaoxiao, who became the future princess after falling into the water a while ago. Even though she is average-looking, this outfit makes her look ten years older.
However, there was no dislike for Bai Lingyue in her words, but a sense of injustice.
The eldest lady of the Lin family has an arrogant and domineering personality. She never cares about other people's feelings. She is straightforward and can say whatever she wants. Even if she offends others, she has her own brother and father to wipe her ass, so no one in the capital likes her.
Bai Lingyue just glanced at her lightly and said nothing. They entered the princess's mansion together and then parted ways.
No one received her, so Bai Lingyue wandered around the princess' mansion by herself. The lotus banquet in her previous life made Bai Yunlian the limelight.
She asked the empress to marry her to the prince as a concubine, but she never expected that on the day of the wedding, Bai Yunlian would collude with the prince, change Bai Lingyue's sedan chair, and worship with Murong Yun to become the real crown prince.
Bai Lingyue was drugged and carried in through the back door, and became a concubine without even having a concubine.
"Miss, Mr. Buran is here." When Xiao Taohong saw Mr. Buran walking towards her eldest daughter in an indigo robe, she excitedly called out to Bai Lingyue, and Bai Lingyue finally calmed down.
"Little girl, what are you thinking about?" Mr. Buran had strode up to Bai Lingyue. From a distance, he saw the little girl staring at the lotus pond in a daze.
"I've met the young master." Bai Lingyue saluted Mr. Buran.
"No, let's go and sit there." Mr. Buran waved his hand. His men had found a quiet and elegant place, and he wanted to take the girl there to rest.
"Okay." Bai Lingyue followed Mr. Bu Ran to the pavilion, where various snacks and fruits were already laid out.
"Master Buran, why do I feel that the pastries and fruits in this pavilion are different from those in other places?"
Bai Lingyue looked at the exquisite snacks, fragrant tea, and fruits that ordinary people couldn't eat.
She had seen the snacks in those pavilions just now. Although the snacks were good, they were far inferior to those here.
"How did those vulgar foods get into my mouth? They were all brought from the palace." Master Buran said disdainfully.
Bai Lingyue found it really funny that she would bring her own snacks when she was a guest. She wondered if Mr. Buran would bring his own dishes when we had dinner later.
"Little girl, try it quickly to see if your cooking is delicious." Mr. Buran picked up a piece of sweet-scented osmanthus cake and handed it to Bai Lingyue.
After Bai Lingyue took it, she took a bite, and the elegant aroma of sweet-scented osmanthus and other flowers filled her mouth.
Her eyes widened: "Yes, the cost of this sweet-scented osmanthus cake is not low. There are also jasmine and roses in the sweet-scented osmanthus. I never thought that these three kinds of flowers would be so delicious together."
Mr. Bu Ran was very happy to see that Bai Lingyue liked to eat the snacks he invented.
"I researched this based on your flower cakes. I have long been tired of eating the same things, but my favorite is the snacks you made. Little girl, make some more snacks for me when you have time." Mr. Furan You're welcome.
"Okay, I can make you a cake, which one is more delicious." Bai Lingyue and Mr. Buran chatted happily. Princess Taiping and Bai Yunlian who were far away were really jealous.
"If I had known earlier, I shouldn't have given her those snacks and wasted my property." Princess Taiping said through gritted teeth, becoming even more disgusted with Bai Lingyue.
Why would Mr. Buran be with her? That foxy look is really good at seducing men.
"Your Highness, those are not food for the house, they are brought by Mr. Buran himself." The maid on the side reminded Princess Taiping.
Princess Taiping became even more angry now. What do you mean? Does Mr. Buran look down on her delicious food? Then shouldn't she, the owner, be asked to taste the snacks and other things he brought?
"Your Highness, you can't really blame your sister. After she and His Highness the Prince broke off their engagement, she must have wanted to find a suitable person to marry. Mr. Buran is so outstanding..."
Bai Yunlian knew that Princess Taiping liked Mr. Bu Ran, so she deliberately framed Bai Lingyue.
After Princess Taiping heard this, she became even more angry. The damn good-for-nothing actually wanted to steal a man from her. Look at that foxy look, making Mr. Buran so happy!
"Let's go over and take a look!" Princess Taiping said angrily.
