sk you a question" Qin Luoyan diligently poured a cup of tea for Jin Mu.Of course, Miss Qin can ask anything she likes.” Jin Mu was an honest person and readily agreed.Qin Luoyan smiled brightly, "Lor...A dog that bites doesn't bark, and so it is with people. When someone who appears completely harmless on the surface suddenly harms others, it is the most difficult to defend against. 。Qin Luoyan stepped forward and performed a respectful bow to Wei Guifei, saying: "Wei Guifei is naturally the beauty of a falling fish and a goose. A mere woman like me has only an average appearance. How can I compare to Wei Guifei" 。Actually, I think a woman's beauty isn't the most important thing. Beauty fades with time, but wisdom and character are what truly change one's destiny. 。The imperial concubine Wei gave birth to a princess, and the emperor granted an amnesty for this joyous occasion. This honor is not something achieved simply through beauty; it speaks volumes about her standing. For common women like myself, regardless of our appearance, the favor of King Wuxuan is the most precious thing we could hope for. 。Her words flattered Wei Guifei while also avoiding excessive self-deprecation that would appear insincere. 。As expected, as soon as she finished speaking, Wei貴妃 lightly clapped her hands. "A woman who can catch the eye of Prince Wuxuan is indeed someone extraordinary." 。You're called Luoyan, aren't you Looking at your young age, you have such unique insights. You are much more astute than many from influential families. Very good, very good. 。" The imperial concubine Wei praised two beauties consecutively. Not only did she not get angry because of the dispute between the two over their beauty, but she also showered Qin Luo Yan with praise. This made the Empress's face flicker with displeasure for a fleeting moment. " 。At this moment, Qin Luo'yan suddenly understood why even under the Empress's suppression, Wei Guifei still had a princess left. The Empress's cruelty was on the surface; she made people wary with her every move. But Wei Guifei was different. She used the method of boiling a frog in warm water, silently achieving her goals. These two women who fought against each other, their strengths and weaknesses were clear to see. 。"Enough, enough, your silver tongue has even managed to make death sound alive. Sit down over there, next to Li Cairen. You're at least a consort of Prince Wu Xuan before he took a wife, sitting in the corner is hardly befitting you." 。The Empress gestured with her hand, and Qin Luoyan could only bow in acknowledgment before retreating. 。The Empress was displeased, and she vented her anger on the maids who were yet to arrive. 。“Oh, how come the palace maids haven’t all arrived yet The emperor will be here soon too. I wonder if he'll have to wait for them”

Lao Momo, standing beside her, lightly tapped the attendance list and turned back to report, “Your Majesty, most of the palace maids have arrived. Only Qin Xiner and a few others are still missing. This servant will immediately send someone to urge them.” 。“What a disgrace! Thinking that the Emperor looked at her a few more times, she’s already gotten above herself. She hasn’t even received the Emperor’s favor yet, and she's acting so arrogant. If she truly becomes one of the Emperor’s concubines, she’ll be completely out of control!” 。“ For the Empress to speak like that, the several concubines around her seemed to have gotten used to it. Perhaps, in their eyes, an Empress born into such a family was originally supposed to have more confidence in speaking than others. 。As they were speaking, several people walked out of the plum grove. Leading them was Qin Xin'er and Zhou Qin. They walked to the banquet hall and first went before the Empress Dowager to pay their respects. 。"Come earlier next time, didn't you see so many people waiting You are all from noble families, don't act like ordinary women and be rude. " 。Okay, go ahead. 。The Empress scolded several people sternly with a serious expression. 。Qin Xiner and the others hung their heads and dared not even breathe, they could only sullenly sit down at the last few small square tables. 。These tables are all the leftovers picked by others, the furthest from the main seat. Even if the emperor came, it would be difficult to attract his attention. 。After a few people sat down, Qin Xin'er finally raised her head, with an expression of indignation. "What does this mean We were supposed to have the banquet at noon, but it's still over half an hour away! How could we possibly be late"Zhou Qin also chimed in, "These other people are the same. They seem harmless on a normal day, but as soon as something like this happens, they start playing tricks. Look at Yuejuan and the others, yesterday they said they liked to sleep in and wouldn't get up until after 9 am, but look now, each one of them is dressed up like a geisha from a kiln, they definitely got up early!" 。"To arrive so early on purpose, wasn't that just to make us look like we were late" As the saying goes, birds of a feather flock together. Even in this situation, Qin Xiner and Zhou Qin could only find fault with each other. This is also why they became friends. 。It's been said that you can tell a lot about a person by the company they keep, and looking at it now, there seems to be some truth to that. 。Qin Luoyan's seat wasn't far from theirs, she could hear snippets of their conversation. She just frowned, this Qin Xiner was still the same as she was back in the General's Mansion. 。It's a pity that such a personality was sent to the palace. It seems like her stepmother, General Qin's wife, will be disappointed this time. 。With some time before the official start, Qin Luoyan stood up and prepared to visit the ceremonial room. After asking a palace maid for directions, she headed in that direction. 。Qin Xiner was drinking tea, and when she caught sight of her disappearing figure in the plum grove from the corner of her eye, her face changed again. 。"Xin'er, what's wrong with you" Zhou Qin asked concernedly. 。Qin Xiner shook her head, but she stood up in some panic and hurried after that direction, "I'm fine, I just want to go to the restroom, I'll be right back" 。"Oh, then you'd better hurry, Your Majesty might be here any minute." 。Zhou Qin instructed. 。But Qin Xin'er had no mood to listen to her at this moment. Qin Xin'er's mind was full of the face of Qin Luoyan she had just seen. She definitely hadn't looked wrong. This time, so close up, she saw clearly, it was indeed Qin Luoyan's face! Qin Luoyan wasn't really going to use the restroom; she just wanted to avoid all the gossip and chatter, so she left the banquet hall and randomly sat under a plum tree. 。

Today, the sun was pleasantly warm. She sat under a tree, basking in the sunlight on her face. Occasionally, petals from the plum blossoms drifted down with the wind. She stretched out her hand, and a petal landed softly in her palm. It was small and crimson, just a single petal. Yet, nestled in her hand, it evoked a poignant sense of melancholic beauty.

When Qin Xiner chased to this place, she saw Qin Luoyan with a contented smile on her face. Such a smile in the sunlight was too bright, directly calling out the scene deep in her memory. 。Once, because Qin Luoyan had such an alluring appearance, whenever the two appeared in people's sight at the same time, almost no one would notice her existence. 。If you find "Fuzi Mo Qin Luoyan" enjoyable, please copy and paste the following URL to share it with your QQ, WeChat or Weibo friends.
