Several teapots were already empty on the table. Ling'er smacked her tongue as she looked at her young lady drinking tea as wine, looking like she wanted to show off with a bowl.

"Miss...it's better not to drink, right?"

Yun Qian covered her face in pain and said in despair, "Did I just tease the regent?"

Ling'er's eyes widened little by little, and the volume of her voice increased unconsciously: "What?! Is that His Highness the Regent?"

"........."

Yun Qian held her chin with her hands, feeling like her toes were digging into the ground just thinking about the scene just now.

After she blew that whistle, the air seemed to be stagnant, and everyone present did not dare to say a word or even take a breath.

It's hard to describe the embarrassment at that time. At that time, Yun Qian just wanted to find a hole in the ground and crawl into it.

Her current external image is that of a man, and she would actually do such a frivolous thing to His Majesty the Regent. If His Majesty the Regent had not changed his expression, and there was no wave in his deep eyes, he would have stared at Yun Qian for a few seconds. Turning around and leaving, Yun Qian almost thought her head was in danger.

Men teasing men...

Yun Qian thought and sighed again, the regent probably wouldn't regard her as a pervert.

Ling'er came back from the shock and exclaimed in admiration: "Young lady is really a hero among women, she dares to molest His Highness the Regent."

Yun Qian: "..."

Although it sounds like a compliment, it feels so weird.

"Ling'er is quite curious, why did His Highness the Regent come to a place like this?" Ling'er picked up the teapot and prepared to add another cup of tea to Yun Qian.

Yun Qian quickly took the cup away, "I can't drink any more, I really can't drink any more."

Ling'er then put down the teapot and sat back to his seat. The girls around him had already retreated. At this moment, there were only two people in the private room, Yun Qian and Ling'er.

"I'm really asking you this..." Yun Qian paused for a moment, "I'm really asking the wrong person."

Ling'er: "??"

"I guess there's something important going on. Besides, he's a normal man, so isn't it normal to come here?" Yun Qian said.

The sound of music sounded again on the stage downstairs, and the babbling sound spread into the private room.

"But Ling'er heard that His Highness the Regent is not flirtatious with women. He said that there is not even a female family member in the palace." Ling'er said.

Yun Qian raised an eyebrow, "Where did you hear that?"

"That's what everyone outside says."

Yun Qian choked on these words for a long time, and finally waved her hand, "The rumors are somewhat credible."

After eating and drinking, Yun Qian lifted her robe and then stood up.

"Let's go back to the house."

---

The current emperor is the only child of the Empress Dowager. There are actually several brothers and sisters born under him by concubines. Since the new emperor ascended the throne, he has been granted the title of prince and princess. Although the emperor is the son of the Empress Dowager, he is actually the only one who was born there. The third oldest among the brothers and sisters.

The palace holds a flower-viewing banquet in late spring every year, at which time all the ladies from the houses of high-ranking officials and nobles are invited to the palace.

The name is called Flower Appreciation Feast, which sounds very nice, but in fact it is a blind date in disguise, mainly to select concubines for the royal family's children.

Not surprisingly, the Yun Mansion was also on the invitation list, and Yun Qian had no choice but to attend.

The carriage was ready, Yun Qian was sitting in the room dressing up, and Ling'er was busy beside her.

Yun Qian is wearing a crescent-white skirt today. There is a layer of white gauze outside the skirt. The waist is tightened and the waist is full. The earrings are two extremely plain pearls. She is decorated with light makeup. She has a pretty face, long hair that almost reaches her hips, and her hair is tied into a beautiful bun with a silver hairpin.

"Young lady is so beautiful, she will definitely outshine the rest today." Ling'er praised.

Yun Qian couldn't help laughing, "I'll dress you up next time too. If you go out dressed as a man, I will say you are my wife."

Ling'er stamped her foot and said in a scolding voice, "Miss, please stop teasing me..."

Yun Mu opened the door and came in, seeing her daughter smiling knowingly, "The carriage is already waiting outside."

"I understand, mother, my daughter will pack it up soon."

Yun Mu touched Yun Qian's temples with a pleased look, "In the blink of an eye, you will be old enough to get married. Time is really ruthless."

Yun Qian put her arms around her mother's waist and said in a coquettish voice, "My daughter doesn't want to get married so soon. My daughter wants to spend more time with her parents at home."

Yun Mu still smiled, "Silly boy."

……

Many carriages had stopped in front of the palace. Yun Qian took Ling'er's hand and stepped out of the carriage. Ling'er supported her carefully: "Miss, watch your step."

The flower-viewing banquet was held in the imperial garden of the palace. When Yun Qian arrived, many ladies from the family had already arrived, and they all gathered and chatted.

The original owner seldom went out, and he only met a few official ladies, and he didn't know many people. Fortunately, some of them had lively personalities.

Lu Ling, the legitimate daughter of the Lu family, is one of the few friends of the original owner.

Probably because she was born in a military general's family, Lu Ling's personality is very similar to her father, General Lu. General Lu is the general of the military camp and is in charge of the army. He is cheerful and informal.

Speaking of which, in his previous life, General Lu also extended a helping hand to the declining Yun Mansion.

Lu Ling didn't bother competing with those ladies, seeing Yun Qian was like seeing a savior.

"You're finally here. If you don't come, I will be suffocated to death by the smell of those powders." Lu Ling pulled Yun Qian to a corner with few people.

Yun Qian didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "I also put on makeup."

"You're different," Lu Ling waved her hand, "Are they eager to put makeup all over their faces, or are you just so cool and pretty?"

"If I hadn't known you would come, I wouldn't have come to such an occasion."

Lu Ling usually followed her father in the military camp and was used to comfortable trousers. Because today was a special day, she had no choice but to wear a skirt, and now she felt uncomfortable.

Yun Qian helped Lu Ling adjust her collar, "I don't want to come either. Who would want to marry into the palace?"

"You don't want to marry into the palace?" Lu Ling asked curiously.

"Yes," Yun Qian nodded.

"Although marrying into the palace will bring you fame, wealth and status, you will lose your freedom. I don't want to be locked within a few feet of palace walls."

Lu Ling looked like she had found a soulmate, "Same as me! I knew I was right about the right person!"

The two of them chatted together for a while. Yun Qian listened to Lu Ling talk about interesting things that happened in the military camp. When they talked about the funny things, they laughed together, creating a comfortable atmosphere.

After a while, there was a little commotion in the crowd, and a girl wearing a light pink skirt was surrounded by people. The girl's expression was arrogant, as if she didn't take anything seriously.

Yun Qian was a little confused: "Who is she?"

"You don't even know about her?" Lu Ling was shocked. "She is Princess Feiyun, the princess who likes to look at people with her nostrils."

"I'm used to being praised by the stars, and I've been doted on since I was a child. I have a very domineering personality."
