"It's okay. We are siblings. I don't think outsiders will say much. And if anyone dares to gossip, just pull it out." Bai Ze said calmly.

Old Wu felt a chill on his back. He thought he would not be silenced just because he asked for too much medical fee. He should come to the Prime Minister's Mansion less often.

Fortunately, the mansion did not arrange the arrangements of a young lady just because I had the title of a young lady. Although the maids would listen to my arrangements, I did not have a dedicated maid like a real young lady, and I still had to rely on myself for everything.

Bai Ze is temporarily safe here. "Brother, I have cleaned up the blood on the ground. Do you have another place to live outside? Give me one. Otherwise, where will I live?"

"Just stay here, I'll be fine in two days. We are brother and sister, are you afraid that I will eat you?" Bai Ze wanted to play a trick on his nominal sister.

"Okay, brother, I'm going to find food first. You take a good rest. Old Wu, it's hard for you to continue to accompany him." I still have 8,000 taels. If they don't give me a house, then I can go out and stay in an inn by myself. Perfect!

It feels really good to be rich. I packed a meal for Lao Wu and prepared some porridge for Bai Ze. When I returned to the room, I saw the Prime Minister talking to Bai Ze in front of the bed.

As expected, nothing can be hidden from the Prime Minister.

Just as he was about to quietly leave, the prime minister suddenly spoke up, "Thank you for your hard work these past few days. If you need anything, just let me know."

Zhang Xianxian thought that these words should be said to herself, and then she answered yes.

Isn't the prime minister worried that he might plot against his son? What a strange father and son.

Before Zhang Xianxian came back, the prime minister also raised this question, asking his son if he liked this girl, but he was met with a roll of his eyes.

This is their young people's business, and the Prime Minister is too lazy to care about it. As long as his son is safe, it's enough. General Gao, you are overreaching.

He was about to go back and do something for General Gao, so he left in a hurry.

There were only three people left in the room, staring blankly.

Zhang Xianxian was the first to break the silence, "I brought some food back, you guys hurry up and try it."

Old Wu saw that the atmosphere was awkward, so he offered to take the food out to eat, so only Zhang Xianxian and Bai Ze were left.

"I was injured this time because of a plot by General Gao. I don't know if you noticed in the hall that he had a blue bead in his hand. That bead is very important to me. This time I am going to get that bead." Bai Ze said while drinking porridge.

"Did you get it?" What a crappy bead, why do you have to tell me so much? I really don't want to listen to Zhang Xianxian's complaints!

"Almost, this old man is too cunning, I need your help." If you dare not help, then I! Then I dare to ask someone else for help! That's right, Bai Ze is such a principled brother.

Zhang Xianxian thought for a moment, "What help?"

"In a few days, the wife of the Grand Marshal will hold a flower-viewing banquet in the Grand Marshal's Mansion. The purpose is to find a wife for her eldest son. I need you to make a big fuss at this banquet." It looks like there's hope.

"It's so exciting, just do whatever you want?" This is my specialty, Zhang Xianxian thought.

"Well, go ahead and make as much noise as you want. The bigger the better." Is this a promise? !

"Okay, I'll do it, don't worry!" Zhang Xianxian patted his chest and promised.

What should I do? The more she acts like this, the more worried I feel. Bai Ze is wondering if his decision is right.

The day of the flower-viewing banquet has finally arrived. Zhang Xianxian has made many preparations in the past few days, ensuring that she gets enough sleep and eating enough to make her face rounder.

She happily put on her newly bought brocade skirt with gold-thread butterflies and flowers. Although her appearance was ordinary, she was dressed in jewels and various hairpins, looking like a local tycoon!

As soon as she got off the carriage, everyone looked at her.

Zhang Xianxian looked back at them one by one. How come, she had never seen a rich person before? It was already very good for her not to wear a mink fur coat and a gold necklace.

She deliberately hooked her hairpin with her hand. The gold bracelet on her wrist blinded a group of people's eyes. No matter how many she wore, she didn't think it was too heavy.

Most people kept their distance from her. "This is the Prime Minister's new adopted daughter. Why does she look like this? It's really a disgrace to the Prime Minister's Mansion."

Bai Ze, who was hiding in the dark, wrote down the appearances of those who said bad things about Zhang Xianxian, and was ready to return them one by one after the matter was over. "How can you gossip about your own sister?"

Zhang Xianxian regretted bringing so many things with her. She was exhausted after walking a few steps, but she pretended to walk very easily.

Xiaobu couldn't bear to see his master so tired, so he used the skill of light travel on his master. Only then did Zhang Xianxian feel light all over and praised Xiaobu so much that her face blushed.

Young ladies from various families were competing to show their talents. Zhang Xianxian didn't have any talent, and wondered if she would scare these young ladies to tears if she performed the art of breaking a stone with her chest.

After thinking about it, I decided to give up and find a corner where no one would notice me to start carrying out my plan.

Unexpectedly, a young lady with no eyes came out and said, "I've heard for a long time that the eldest daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion is good at everything, such as playing the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. I wonder if you can show us your skills so that we can feast our eyes on them?"

The person who was speaking was the youngest daughter of Marquis Changning, who was an avid admirer of Bai Ze. When she heard that the Prime Minister had just adopted a daughter, and that the daughter had a very good relationship with Bai Ze, she felt jealous.

Zhang Xianxian, who was inexplicably called, stood up confidently. The sunlight shone on her gold jewelry, making it sparkle, and she looked just like the little golden figures in the temple.

"I've been learning palm reading recently. Everyone here can stretch out your hand and let me see it. Maybe you can get an unexpected surprise~" Then you don't have to do bad things secretly, you can do bad things openly.

The daughter of Marquis Changning was the first to step forward, "I want to see what you are really capable of."

Zhang Xianxian looked at it carefully for a long time, then whispered something in her ear, and her face flushed instantly, "Are you telling the truth?"

"Of course." Zhang Xianxian was confident.

The daughter of Changning Hou ran away shyly. When she didn't notice, a lot of honey on Zhang Xianxian's hands stuck to her clothes.

Several more girls from aristocratic families came forward to have their palms read by Zhang Xianxian. Zhang Xianxian whispered a few words in their ears, and the girls from aristocratic families all ran away shyly. Zhang Xianxian did not stick honey on each of them, but made the selection randomly.

The wife of the Grand Marshal, who was sitting at the main seat, smiled and said, "I didn't expect that the Prime Minister's Mansion would produce a good daughter who has such ability."

"Thank you for the compliment, ma'am." Zhang Xianxian raised her head proudly.
