Princess Rongyang was two years older than Yun Nian. Unlike the prime minister's legitimate daughter who had just come of age, she was already seventeen years old, but had not yet arranged a marriage.

Although Minister Xun said in the court that he loved his daughter and wanted Rong Yang to stay with her for a while longer,

But in fact, none of these young ladies from noble families were unaware of Rong Yang's thoughts.

She has liked Ning Si Nian since she was a child, and she often said that she wanted to become the Crown Prince of Jinyang when she grew up.

But who would have thought that Yun Nian would appear halfway.

Five years ago, the Jinyang Palace had already arranged a marriage for Ning Sinian. At that time, the sixteen-year-old prince already had a princess, which shattered Rongyang's dream.

From that time on, she had always disliked Yun Nian.

But this engagement was not something Yun Nian wanted to make. Rong Yang only had the status of a princess and could not provide Ning Sinian with more help.

Yun Nian climbed up the stairs, and Yun Jiao followed behind her. The two of them slowly walked to the top of the platform, and the others made way for her.

Today Yun Nian was wearing a light yellow dress, which added a touch of bright color as spring was approaching. Compared to her, Rong Yang's outfit was much more gorgeous.

Fur coats made of red fox fur, earrings made of Dongling pearls, and brocade yarn woven by Nanyan embroiderers,

All of them are top-quality.

"Oh, why is Sister Yun Nian dressed so plainly today? I wonder if she has fallen out of favor and doesn't even need fashionable jewelry?"

She did it on purpose, just to embarrass Yun Nian.

She had known that there was a new daughter in the Prime Minister's Mansion. It was said that she was the Prime Minister's sister's child, but who knew if she was the Prime Minister's illegitimate daughter?

There is no wall that is impenetrable in this world. I heard that when Yun Nian fell ill at home, the people from the Prime Minister's Mansion and this sister Yun Jiao were playing in the villa.

"Yes, Princess, everyone knows that Miss Yun's favorite is the jewelry from Qizhen Pavilion, but I heard that there are new ones recently, and no one has come to buy them."

"Miss Yun, if you have any difficulties, just tell us. We are all familiar ladies, and we will naturally help you."

The people around laughed softly.

Most of the people who were invited by Rongyang were on her side. Even if there were neutral people, they would not contradict the princess for her.

Yun Nian herself didn't think it was a big deal. She didn't want the jewelry and she accepted the invitation herself.

"I almost forgot. We also need to meet the young lady behind us. Since you are Yun Nian's sister, you are also our friend."

Rong Yang smiled and pulled Yun Jiao over. She would naturally try to win over people that Yun Nian disliked, and it would be best if she could make Yun Nian so angry that she lost her composure.

A woman with immoral character cannot possibly become the Crown Prince's consort.

Yun Jiao had never seen such a scene before. She had just arrived in Luochuan and had not really entered the center of the circle of those young ladies.

"Yun Jiao greets the princess, Miss Liu, and Miss Qi."

She greeted him timidly, but her eyes were filled with her own thoughts. Yun Shuo warned her that since the way to the Prime Minister's Mansion was blocked, she could try another way. Princess Rongyang seemed to be an excellent helper.

"Oh, don't be so polite. I call you Jiaojiao, and you can just call me by my name."

Rong Yang smiled and pulled Yun Jiao over, and brought his sisters together to ask about each other's well-being, leaving Yun Nian in a lonely and awkward situation.

Unfortunately, Yun Nian was not afraid at all. She sat on the high platform, watching the drama performance below and eating salt-fried melon seeds with relish.

Rong Yang's methods were too gentle. All she knew was to isolate and ridicule her, which would not hurt Yun Nian at all.

Yun Nian was only sad for the one she loved. The rest of the people were not within her attention range at all.

That's why Xiyu said he was cold and Zuo Mingyuan also thought she was unkind.

Thinking of Zuo Mingyuan, it seemed like he hadn't come to see me for a long time. According to the development of the previous life, he should have gone to the border by now.

"Sisi, after I kill all the barbarians, I will bring you their heads!"

"No, that's too bloody. Just come back safely."

Zuo Mingyuan came back, but the warm and sincere boy she once knew was gone.

This time, she did not go to see him off to the battle, and Zuo Mingyuan must have hated her even more.

Yun Nian propped up her chin and quietly looked at the scenery below, not knowing that in the eyes of others, she was the most beautiful and eye-catching scenery.

The martial artist in the audience sang in a low voice, brandished the spear in his hand, leaped into the air, and then fell straight down, causing the young ladies watching to exclaim in surprise.

"I will kill you on your horse today!"

After singing the lyrics, Wusheng raised his spear on his toes. The arrow tip with the red tassel did not go in the predetermined direction, but instead came straight towards Yun Nian.

She was still holding an orange in her hand, her pupils slightly dilated, and she stood there in a daze, as if she was frightened.

Bai Ju and Xi Yu, who were on the pavilion, immediately realized the danger and rushed over.

But the stunned-looking woman smiled happily.

An arrow flew out and hit the tip of the Red Tassel Spear. Then, with a few "whoosh" sounds, several arrows hit the same spot, causing the Red Tassel Spear to lose its strength and fall when it was only a foot away from Yun Nian.

"Dai Yu, concentrate!"

As the voice of surprise fell, a girl in tight clothes and another person flew steadily onto the platform and landed beside Yun Nian.

The woman in tight clothes had a quiver on her back and had just put away the bow in her hand.

The other woman was gentle and tender, and her green dress made her look like a secluded orchid in a valley, isolated from the world.

They were Yun Nian’s two good friends, Shen Ningsi and Huo Daiyu.

"Sisi, are you okay?"

As soon as Shen Ningsi landed, she immediately grabbed Yun Nian's hand and looked around, pulling her around in a circle.

"Why do you feel like you've suffered a lot?"

Huo Daiyu was playing with an arrow in her hand, the tip of the arrow spinning on her fingertips. She looked at Princess Rongyang in the middle with unkind eyes.

"Rong Yang, why are you still as stupid as before? Are you planning to attack the daughter of the Prime Minister in public today?"

She always spoke recklessly. General Huo was the first female general of the dynasty and also her mother. Not to mention other generals, even Zuo Mingyuan's father might not be able to beat her mother.

General Huo has a very bad temper and is very protective of his people. Anyone who dares to bully Huo Daiyu will not have a good ending.

Although Huo Daiyu doesn't need her mother to support her, if anyone messes with her Sisi, don't blame her for being ruthless.
