Lu JinNian did not dare to let Xiao Su carelessly call her by her name.

With a 101 smile on his face, Lu Jinsheng walked into the room and cupped his hands, "Greetings, Prince Huai."

Seeing them greeting each other so familiarly, Xiao Rangxi lost her composure and said, "Cousin, you and Eldest Miss Lu know each other."

Xiao Su lowered her eyes, "The day before yesterday, Brother Kong Lian invited me to drink. It was Miss Lu who helped me block it."

Lu Jinniang smiled, "The king didn't hold back, allowing my daughter to get three jars of Ice and Snow Wine for free."

"Ice and Snow Brew! Those silkpants know that your body isn't healthy, but they still want you to drink that wine!" I will report this to royal father when I return! "

Xiao Ran Xi raised her eyebrows and was about to stand up in anger, but was stopped by Xiao Su, "Ran Xi, I'm fine."

"Cousin, you are too good-natured."

He already knew the identity of this lady. The current emperor had seven sons and a daughter, and this was the current princess of the imperial court, Princess Cheng Jia. If she really wanted to marry the Huns, she would be the first one to marry the princess.

After his smile deepened, Lu Jinsheng said, "Your highness and princess are really on good terms, so my daughter won't disturb you any longer."

"Wait!" Xiao Ran Xi's eyes lit up. How could she have forgotten about the important matter? She looked Lu JinNian up and down.

"You are the woman that scared my little brother Xiao Qi to tears? "But you're really good-looking, Xiao Qi definitely isn't crying because of your face, you secretly told me the truth of Xiao Qi's crying, on account of you helping my cousin block the alcohol, this princess doesn't care about Xiao Qi anymore."

"My daughter doesn't dare."

Xiao Ran Xi frowned, "You're not saying?"

"My daughter doesn't dare to accept Princess's praise," Lu Jinnian smiled gently. "In front of the beautiful Princess, she nodded and admitted that she was pretty. She really has let down her conscience."

Xiao Ran Xi was stunned. She could only feel her heart beating rapidly. Her face couldn't help but turn red.

"In front of the beautiful princess, my daughter should have told everything she knew, but this matter concerns the Seventh Prince's secret. My daughter promised to keep it a secret from the Seventh Prince, so my only choice is to apologize to the princess."

"She would rather be rumored to be the ugliest girl than to say anything?"

"This is an agreement between my daughter and His Highness, the Seventh Prince."

"Alright then."

Seeing the sincerity in Lu JinNian's tone, Xiao Jinxi could only sigh. If it was any other person, she definitely wouldn't give up and refuse to speak.

As a princess of the imperial family, she had plenty of ways to make you speak. However, Lu JinNian's sincere tone and attitude, as well as her silent praise, made Xiao Jinxi feel a little lost in thought.

As the emperor's only daughter, she was doted upon by thousands of people, but how could she, who was in the palace, not understand the difference between flattering and true love?

The people in the palace knew whose secret it was, and wished that it would be spread out before the second day. People in the palace knew whose secret it was, and wished that it would be spread out before the second day.

Girl, you're really thinking too much. If she hadn't let the rumors spread freely, no matter how long it took, it wouldn't have spread for four years. She and the Seventh Prince were just each taking what they needed.

"If that's the case, then my daughter will not delay the exchange of feelings between the prince and the princess. Yesterday, I heard from the shopkeeper that a new trick has been introduced in the embroidery workshop. I wonder how the progress will be. My daughter is really looking forward to it."

Xiao Ran Xi curiously asked, "A new trick? Why didn't the shopkeeper mention it earlier? What did it look like?"

Lu JinNian pretended to touch his chin deeply, "The shopkeeper said it's a type of flower that is rarely seen here. It's called cornflower or something. It's a novel and beautiful look."

Xiao Ran Xi immediately patted the chair's handle and said loudly, "Shopkeeper, come here quickly. Why didn't you tell me earlier?"

Upon hearing these words, Wenqiu quickly walked over, inwardly ridiculing themselves. How would she know anything about the new style of cornflowers?

"Because this is a new design that I received a few days ago, there are a lot of things to make clothes for, so I put it on hold. I didn't think that Miss would remember to mention it, since the ladies are all looking forward to it, I'll hurry up and make it as soon as possible."

Xiao Ran Xi was very satisfied, "Is the new pattern unique? I want to reserve the first new fabric and make it into clothes. When I go to the palace banquet, I will definitely be the focus of attention! "

The light in Lu JinNian's eyes turned slightly as he shook his head at Wenqiu with an almost imperceptible expression.

Ever since the first emperor of the Ming Xuan Kingdom, he had been hosting a palace banquet at the beginning of March to invite the royal officials and their families to the palace, all the way until now.

This time, the Huns had sent an emissary at this time, and also reported the purpose of the marriage alliance. In order to let the princess appear on the scene, it was highly likely that they would gather at the palace for the banquet.

She only wanted to use the mouth of Xiao Ran Xi to spread the news of the cornflowers among the royal family, in order to attract the attention of the Princess of the Hun.

He did not want Xiao Rangxi to appear in the royal banquet dressed in cornflower patterns. He wanted the Huns to think that the princess of our country was purposely trying to please them by asking them to exchange the face and courage of the princesses of the two countries.

"Princess' temperament is out of this world, so she is naturally the center of attention for the palace feast. What need is there to add to the glory with new tricks?"

"Furthermore, in the late winter and early spring, there will definitely be many aristocratic families who will rush to make new clothes. It's already the 18th of February today, so it would be bad enough to make new clothes in front of the palace feast. If we make new clothes, I'm afraid..."

Xiao Ran Xi curled her lips, "What kind of spotlight is this? Ah Jin, you didn't even participate in the palace banquet, so you didn't know."

"In the recent years, if it wasn't Yi Nan, the most talented girl in the palace banquet, then it was Liang Jing's Qin Jue Lu Qingwan and Wu Jue Su Peihuan who won first place. Last year, it was Lu Qingwan who got first place, all she did was play a zither, what's the big deal, Fourth Imperial Brother always favors her."

Lu JinNian, "..." Can you treat it as the jealousy of a child? So cute...

I'll go back and fix Xiao Qi's play. Cousin, I'm going back to the palace, you haven't come to pay respects to royal father in a long time, do you want to go with me?

Xiao Su looked at Lu Jin Nian inquiringly, then waved her hand and said, "No, I'll be entering the palace another day. It looks like the weather is about to rain, I'll be heading back home."

Xiao Ran Xi dejectedly shrugged her shoulders. She didn't force him. Instead, she grabbed onto Lu JinNian's hand, "Ah Jin, you participated in this year's palace banquet, right?"

"This …" Lu JinNian was exasperated. Your Highness, is it really good to be this familiar with each other!

The corner of his mouth twitched as he looked into Xiao Ran Xi's bright eyes. He coughed lightly and said, "In the past, you have always had a coarse and conceited reputation, but you cannot enter above the palace. Today, I am indebted to the princess for taking a fancy to my daughter."

"Then it will come. I'll wait for you then."

Xiao Ran Xi cheered and ran out of the embroidery workshop. She instructed the attendants of the workshop to place the purchased clothes on the carriage, and then sat on the carriage and headed towards the Imperial Palace.
