I died tragically in my previous life, and I want to be an empress in my next life

After leaving the General's Mansion, in order to relieve her depression, Pei Zhiyan thought about going to Yuchun Tower to see if there were any new dress styles. In addition, the dress she had customized here last time should have been completed, so this was a good opportunity to take it back.

Yuchunlou, located in the bustling street market, is three stories high with a glazed tile roof that sparkles in the sun. Pei Zhiyan walked in lightly, and the fragrance of the store filled her nose. It was the fragrance of agarwood and jasmine, which made people feel peaceful.

She couldn't help but think of the last time she traveled with Xuanyuan Ping and met Xuanyuan Che, who insisted on coming to Yuchun Tower with them. She couldn't help but laugh in her heart.

When the waiter of Yuchunlou saw Pei Zhiyan coming, he hurried forward and led her to the VIP room. The interior was elegantly decorated, exuding a noble atmosphere. The waiter quickly served her a cup of the best Biluochun tea, the fragrance of the tea was overflowing, refreshing.

"Princess, the Smoky Cloud Butterfly Dress you customized is finished. Please wait a moment and I will get it for you right away." The waiter said respectfully, his face full of awe.

"These are the most popular styles in the capital right now, Princess, please choose first."

Pei Zhiyan picked up the teacup, took a sip, and nodded slightly. Her eyes swept around and fell on those gorgeous dresses, which were the most popular styles in the capital.

The waiter then retreated.

Pei Zhiyan and Yin Liu walked to the popular dresses and looked through them one by one.

At this moment, there was a sudden noise outside, which seemed to be mixed with some noise about whether the princess was a princess or not.

Pei Zhiyan put down the dress in her hand and motioned Yin Liu to check it out. Yin Liu nodded and walked out quickly.

After a while, Yinliu came in with Princess Galan and a group of people.

Pei Zhiyan saw Princess Galan, and a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes. She didn't expect that Princess Galan would appear here at this time.

"Princess Jing, long time no see." Princess Galan greeted her with a smile, and Pei Zhiyan smiled back.

"Just now I saw the waiter holding this set of cloud and butterfly skirt. This skirt seems to combine the beauty of clouds in the sky and butterflies dancing. It is really unforgettable at first sight." Princess Galan praised, "I learned that this was custom-made by Princess Jing, and I admire Princess Jing's vision even more."

This cloud butterfly dress was carefully crafted by top silk craftsmen over a period of months. Hundreds of dancing butterflies are embroidered on the skirt, each of which is lifelike and looks like it is really flying. In addition, the hem of the skirt is decorated with flowing cloud patterns, making the whole skirt more elegant and moving.

"If the princess likes it, I will give it to you." Pei Zhiyan said with a smile.

Princess Galan was slightly stunned. She obviously didn't expect Pei Zhiyan to be so generous. She shook her head and said with a smile, "How can I take someone's love away from me?"

Pei Zhiyan smiled, her eyes sparkling with sincerity, "This princess and I hit it off right away, this dress complements the princess's temperament. This princess is willing to give this dress to the princess, I just hope the princess likes it."

Princess Galan stopped refusing and said, "It is better to obey than to be respectful. I would like to thank Princess Jing."

"You're welcome, Princess." Pei Zhiyan said with a smile.

Afterwards, Princess Galan excitedly entered the inner room and couldn't wait to put on the cloud and butterfly dress. The skirt fluttered, like a fairy from the fairyland descending to the mortal world. Her beauty and the skirt complemented each other, which was breathtaking.

When everyone saw this scene, they all exclaimed in admiration.

Only Yin Liu looked slightly annoyed, secretly regretting in her heart. This was something her young lady had spent a huge sum of money on as a deposit, and had spent months on it, but now she hadn't even gotten it yet and it had already been given away. If her young lady wore it, she would definitely look a thousand times better than Princess Galan.

"The princess is truly a celestial being, and this skirt complements her perfectly. She is like a fairy in a painting, so beautiful that it makes people intoxicated." Pei Zhiyan looked at Princess Galan and exclaimed sincerely.

Princess Galan smiled shyly and said softly, "Thanks to Princess Jing's love, I have the honor to wear such a beautiful dress. I will definitely treasure it."

Princess Galan changed back into her original dress and carefully handed the Smoky Butterfly Dress to her maid, saying softly, "Keep it well. This is my most precious gift."

Pei Zhiyan smiled, picked up the teacup, and invited, "Princess, please have some tea."

Princess Galan had been busy for most of the day and was indeed a little thirsty, so she picked up the teacup and drank from it in big gulps.

Pei Zhiyan thought to herself that although Princess Jialan was born in the royal family and enjoyed supreme honor, her personality was not like those spoiled princesses. She was gentle and moving, but also bold and forthright. This personality made Pei Zhiyan more curious about her.

As the two of them sipped tea, the topic naturally turned to Xuanyuan Che.

Princess Galan's eyes flashed with an elusive emotion, and she sighed softly, "Ah, I wonder where the Sixth Prince is now. If he really has no intention of marrying me, I am willing to fulfill his wish, but it is really puzzling that he disappeared without a word."

Pei Zhiyan put down the teacup in her hand, looked at Princess Galan tenderly, and said softly, "The Sixth Prince has always liked freedom. Maybe he is just looking for his own world. When he is tired of playing, he will come back."

Princess Galan blushed as she recalled what happened that day in Mulan Paddock. Her voice trembled slightly, "That day in Mulan Paddock, I fell asleep and knew nothing. When I woke up, something like that happened... It's really hard to talk about."

"In Xiliang, men and women can only get married if they love each other. If he rejects me personally, I will give up and will not bother with him anymore."

Pei Zhiyan picked up the teacup calmly, took a sip, and glanced at Princess Galan out of the corner of her eye. Judging from Princess Galan's expression, she seemed to be a victim as well.

Who is behind this?

Although the Prince of Xiliang is not on good terms with Xuanyuan Che, he is a man of courage but no strategy. The Lord Ming beside him seems to be quite knowledgeable in the art of power and intrigue, but this is after all the realm of the Great Zhou. It is estimated that with Lord Ming's brain, he would not do such a thing as openly plotting against the prince of the Great Zhou.

Pei Zhiyan thought secretly in her heart, the marriage between Xuanyuan Che and Princess Galan seems to be a private matter between the two of them, but in fact it is a matter between two countries. How could Xiliang let Xuanyuan Che go easily when such a thing happened to Princess Galan in the Great Zhou?

However, she disagreed even more with Xuanyuan Che's approach of just walking away. Escape was not a solution. This matter had to be resolved eventually.

Nowadays, there is a lot of criticism about Xuanyuan Che in the capital, saying that he dares to do things but not to take responsibility, and can only be a coward.

Some even said that he was unworthy of being the prince of the Great Zhou and that he was bringing shame to the people of the Great Zhou in Xiliang.
