After rebirth, I married the emperor's uncle and overthrew my ex-husband's kingdom

"What show are you watching?"

Bai Youyou was pulled up by her and walked forward following her steps.

"You'll know when you get there." Zhao Qianqian winked at her playfully.

When Qi Lian heard that there was a show to watch, he immediately jumped up from his chair and followed them happily.

Lu Chen followed with the task of protecting his cousin.

Bai Youyou followed Zhao Qianqian to the small garden of the East Palace, and saw many young ladies from official families gathered there.

When I walked over, I found that the protagonist was my fifth sister, the White Lotus.

"what happened?"

It hasn't been long since she arrived, and she's already caused trouble...

Zhao Qianqian whispered in her ear: "Her outfit today clashed with the eldest princess's."

The eldest princess was born to the Imperial Noble Consort and had a noble status. She relied on her favor to be cunning and domineering.

Bai Youyou's eyes fell on the luxurious-looking Dongzhu headdress on Bai Yaoyao's head and she clicked her tongue twice.

When she first got this set of Dongzhu headdress, she showed it off to the original owner every day, making the original owner very envious. Today she came to the palace to show off, but she didn't expect to show it in the wrong place.

"Your face is so pitiful to me."

The princess pinched her chin, her eyes filled with sneer, "You said you were the daughter of the Yongning Marquis's Mansion, then why have I never seen you before?"

"Princess, she is the fifth daughter of the second house of the Yongning Marquis's mansion."

Zhao Qianqian mixed in the crowd and shouted loudly at the top of her lungs.

"A bastard girl?"

The eldest princess pinched Bai Yaoyao's chin and pushed her back. The palace maid beside her immediately brought her a handkerchief. She took it, wiped her hands, and then threw it on the ground casually with disgust in her eyes.

"A young lady born out of wedlock can afford such a thing worth a hundred gold coins. It seems that the Yongning Marquis's Mansion is rich and powerful."

A woman in pink brocade clothes beside her sneered at Bai Yaoyao and said, "South City is now hit by a snowstorm. The imperial court is collecting relief money for the people of South City. I'm sure the Yongning Marquis' Mansion will be eager to help the public and donate generously."

"Tomorrow, I will go talk to my father."

The eldest princess’ words made Bai Yaoyao pale and her body shaky.

She bit her lower lip and looked around pitifully, and finally found Bai Youyou hiding behind the crowd.

She seemed to have seen a life-saving straw and shouted to Bai Youyou: "Fourth sister, save me!"

Her gaze was like a knife, clearing out a space beside Bai Youyou.

Everyone's eyes were on Bai Youyou, who was wearing a green jacket and a pair of small and delicate pearl flowers on her head.

The eldest princess turned around and met Bai Youyou's gaze. She smiled at her and said, "A concubine's daughter is wearing a rare Dongzhu headdress that is worth a hundred gold coins. How come you, as a legitimate daughter, are not as glamorous as a concubine's daughter?"

"Every family has its cupboard."

Bai Youyou shrugged, looking helpless. "My aunt is very good at making money, unlike my mother who is kindhearted and gives all her money to the soldiers who were injured and retired from the battlefield. I naturally cannot afford such expensive things."

"Fourth sister..."

Bai Yaoyao's lips trembled and tears fell from her eyes.

Bai Youyou glanced at her calmly and said, "Every man has a share of responsibility for the fate of his country. The people of South City are suffering right now. Why don't you do your best to help the people of South City overcome their difficulties?"

Bai Yaoyao knew what she meant, but this set of Dongzhu headdress was her favorite jewelry!

She bit her lip, twisted her fingers together tightly, and hesitated to move.

Bai Youyou was speechless. He did this to save her and to help the Marquis' Mansion out of trouble. It was just a dead object, but he was reluctant to take it out.

How short-sighted!

"Today, I would like to lead by example."

She took off the earrings on her earlobes and the pearl flowers on her hair and handed them to the eldest princess. "Princess, this is a small gift from me. I hope I can help the people of South City with your help."

"What a great saying! The rise and fall of the country is the responsibility of every man! Miss Bai Si has great righteousness in her heart. As a citizen of Dashang, I naturally cannot stand idly by!"

Zhao Qianqian was the second to take the lead. She took off the exquisite white jade bracelet on her hand and handed it to the eldest princess. "Eldest princess, my ability is limited, but I am willing to do my best for the people of South City."

"Princess, I am willing to do my part."

Qin Ran also quickly took off all the jewelry and jade pendants she was wearing and handed them to the eldest princess.

The eldest princess was slightly stunned, but she quickly reacted and took Bai Youyou's earrings and the jewelry from Zhao Qianqian and Qin Ran with a smile.

"Miss Zhao, Miss Bai and Miss Qin are all people who care about their country and love their country. I will report the truth to my father and let him know about your noble deeds!"

Seeing this, others also took out their valuable items.

"What the princess said is true. Miss Zhao, Miss Bai and the other two are very modest. We admire them!"

"We have limited abilities, and we hope that this little bit of effort can help the people of South City."

"The three young ladies are so broad-minded, they are role models for us."

They flattered him on the surface, but they felt very sad inside.

The Crown Prince has not yet married a Crown Princess, so all the noble ladies invited this year have tried their best to dress up.

Among the noblemen, except Lu Chen and Qi Lian, one is really poor and the other is really stingy. Both of them are bald and it is impossible to get anything out of them even if you want to.

Seeing this, Bai Yaoyao could only painfully take off the Dongzhu headdress on her head and put it on the tray held by the palace maid.

When the prince heard the eunuch report about the small garden, he hurried over with his men.

Looking at the noble ladies with bald heads, as if they had been robbed, he was stunned for a moment.

Didn’t it say that Bai Yaoyao had a conflict with the eldest imperial sister?

How......

A young eunuch who knew the situation stepped forward and immediately told him what had happened.

There was some surprise in the prince's eyes, and his complicated gaze swept across Bai Youyou's face.

Is this person really the granddaughter of the Duke of Zhenguo who is illiterate, stupid, dull, and arrogant as rumored?

"Brother, everyone present here is concerned about the country and the people. They are willing to sacrifice their families and donate their own money to help the people of South City survive the snowstorm. This is a righteous act. I will tell my father right away."

The eldest princess didn't want the credit to be taken by the prince, so she turned around and left with her maid.

The prince frowned slightly, his eyes fell on Bai Youyou again, and then he smiled and praised: "Miss Bai Si is a beautiful lady, extraordinary and otherworldly, she is truly a model of a noble lady from an aristocratic family!"

"Your Highness, it is a compliment."

Bai Youyou knew that after what happened today, all the young men and women present would definitely hate her in their hearts even if they didn’t say it.

She smiled sheepishly, "The people who deserve praise today are the young men and women present here. I just took the lead. They are the ones who really donated generously and have great righteousness in their hearts."

"You all care about the suffering of the people in South City, and you are so righteous." The prince's eyes wandered over everyone's faces, and the corners of his lips curved, "I will definitely report your righteous actions to the heavens one by one!"
