Quick Wear: She is the White Moonlight

Chapter 370: Evil Princess Bai Yueguang (4)

March is the most beautiful time of the year, with lush grass, flying birds and blooming flowers. In this season full of vitality, Princess Luohe's coming-of-age ceremony also arrived as scheduled.

On this day, the sun was shining and the breeze was blowing. Princess Luohe was wearing a gorgeous dress, like a fairy descending from the earth. Her beauty and elegance attracted countless people's attention, and the troops of various princes had already arrived in the capital, adding more excitement and joy to this grand ceremony.

The princes presented carefully prepared gifts one after another, hoping to win the emperor's favor. Some of these gifts were rare treasures, some were carefully crafted handicrafts, and some were auspicious calligraphy and paintings.

Yuebai has already completed the sacrifices at the ancestral temple. Originally, this step was not included as it was a right only available to the East Palace. However, with the strong support of Qin Gongxiao, Yuebai also completed this step.

Recalling what his father had said to him, Yuebai was shocked to realize that parents who love their children will definitely have far-reaching plans for them. The emperor, who is high above everyone else, is just an ordinary father in front of him.

He said: "I owe your mother a lot, how can I let you live under someone else's control after I am gone? Even if you are not fit to be a monarch, I will leave many of my former ministers to ensure that you will have no worries for the rest of your life. Even if the court officials are willing to discuss your going to the ancestral temple, I will let them get used to it step by step."

He collected his thoughts, looked up and saw the look in his parents' eyes, and Yuebai smiled back at them.

When other people saw this smile, they felt that Princess Luo He was like a goddess who had descended to earth. The amazement in Duan Huaichuan's eyes was put down in just a moment. They thought it was impossible for them to do it directly, so why bother to add to the ties? Wouldn't it be safer to stay with the princess as an adviser?

The officials sitting below were at the age of young love and wanted to be closer to Yuebai. Some of them were reluctant to come here at first, but if they could stay in the capital and marry such a princess, it seemed that they could accept it.

The first person to come forward was undoubtedly Qin Yu, who had met Yue Bai once before. He seemed to have spent a lot of time dressing himself up today, and his handsome face looked even more majestic after being carefully groomed. The youthful vigor that only young people have seemed to be able to be transmitted to everyone present through his eyebrows and eyes.

Qin Yu held the wine glass, smiled at Yue Bai, then raised the glass and said: "It is Qin Yu's honor to see the princess's beautiful face today. May the princess be as bright as the moon and as dazzling as the stars, and live in peace, happiness and worry-free every year." His voice was clear and bright, like the gurgling of water, and it sounded particularly pleasant in this quiet atmosphere.

After finishing his toast, Qin Yu did not put down his glass immediately, but just stared at Yuebai with a smile, the tenderness and admiration in his eyes almost overflowing. Everyone present could clearly feel that the Prince Chu was extremely pleased with Princess Yuebai.

Duan Huaichuan silently clenched his hands hidden under his sleeves. He already knew in his heart that he was just an aide to the princess, and the position of the princess's consort would naturally choose someone who could help the princess more. Just like those who passed the imperial examinations, they were willing to demote their wives to concubines for the daughters of high-ranking officials even though they had wives at home.

The more he thought about Duan Huaichuan, the more sad he felt. He didn't notice Yue Bai had walked up to him until a familiar voice came: "What happened to Master Duan today?"

Yue Bai noticed something strange about Duan Huaichuan and brought Qin Yu, who had just finished talking, to Duan Huaichuan. Duan Huaichuan was delighted that the princess noticed him, and was about to explain, but his eyes fell on Qin Yu who was beside the princess.

Qin Yu was also looking at Duan Huaichuan. He had an impression of this person. When the princess returned to the palace that day, this person was walking fast on the palace road. He must be a young man from the capital. Qin Yu raised his lips slightly and bowed to Duan Huaichuan and said, "This young man looks kind. What's your name?" Duan Huaichuan returned the greeting, and his voice was a little stiff: "I am Duan Huaichuan."

Yue Bai looked at the two of them, and introduced them with a smile: "Master Duan is my strategist, he is very talented, and he is the one who runs the Princess's Mansion."

An imperceptible light flashed in Qin Yu's eyes, and he smiled and said, "So that's how it is. I've long heard of Master Duan's name. I'm the Prince of Chu, and I've come here specially on the orders of my father to congratulate the princess." At this time, the eyes around him gradually gathered, and everyone saw the subtle atmosphere between the three people.

Duan Huaichuan tried hard to suppress the bitterness in his heart. The so-called celebration was the tacit selection of a prince consort. He forced a smile and said, "Prince Chu is young and promising. Seeing him today, he is indeed worthy of his reputation."

Qin Yu gently shook the wine glass in his hand, but his eyes never left Yue Bai: "I am just a false name, but the princess is both talented and beautiful, and she is admired by everyone."

Yuebai coughed lightly and changed the subject, "Today is my coming-of-age ceremony. Everyone, don't just talk about pleasantries, just have fun." After that, she took the two of them to join the lively crowd, and the undercurrent of emotions quietly grew in this hustle and bustle.
