Xie family.

Ruan Shuyan was looking at the account book in Tingzhu Garden when she suddenly heard the doorman come to report that Nalan Jinxiu had arrived.

"The Thirteenth Princess is sitting in the front hall. Please go over and greet her, Madam."

Ruan Shuyan paused. Is it coming so quickly?

She raised her head slightly and ignored the doorman.

It was not until half an hour had passed that she got up and walked towards the front hall.

At that time, Lai's mother and Chuntao followed behind.

Mother Lai's face was full of worry: "Miss, you left so late, I'm afraid the Thirteenth Princess will be angry."

Ruan Shuyan said slowly: "She won't be angry."

Mother Lai was puzzled: "How could she not be angry when you delayed her for so long?"

Ruan Shuyan smiled. How could someone who came to watch the show be angry?

When she arrived outside the front hall, Ruan Shuyan rubbed her eyes hard a few times, making sure that her eyes were red before she stepped in.

"Your Highness the Princess."

She lowered her head and lowered her voice deliberately.

Nalan Jinxiu was wearing a palace dress and was sitting at the top with an impatient look on her face. When she saw her appear, she slapped the armrest.

"It's been almost half an hour and you just came here, Ruan Shuyan, you are deliberately neglecting this princess!"

Ruan Shuyan maintained her upright posture: "I am wrong, please forgive me, Your Highness."

"Forgive me? Who do you think you are? How dare you talk nonsense to this princess?"

Nalan Jinxiu slapped the armrest again, her tone seemed full of anger, but her eyes were always fixed on Ruan Shuyan.

"Get up, and raise your head as well."

Ruan Shuyan cooperated and stood up, but when she looked up, her face was turned to the side, revealing only one red eye.

After seeing the pair of red eyes, Nalan Jinxiu raised his eyebrows, with a hint of satisfaction in his eyes.

She said that the half-hour wait was not in vain. Ruan Shuyan must have been embarrassed, so she was crying behind her back, and was afraid of being discovered, so she made a temporary solution, which delayed time.

It was worth it for her to come all the way here to see the show!

Thinking about this, Nalan Jinxiu raised her chin and said, "This princess heard that two of your posts were rejected in one day. This is really a disgrace to the Xie family. Is this true?"

Ruan Shuyan was surprised: "How could His Highness..."

Ruan Shuyan quickly stopped talking halfway through her words, lowered her head and stopped talking.

Seeing this, Nalan Jinxiu sighed and said, "No wonder others say that you, the daughter of a merchant, are not presentable. It's just that two posts were rejected. Is there any need to cry like this?"

The more Nalan Jinxiu spoke, the angrier she became, because Ruan Shuyan was going to marry Xie Yuchun.

The man that even she, a princess, couldn't get was won by such a weak woman. Doesn't she have any shame?

"Do you still remember what you did against me when you first entered the palace? You weren't so weak back then. How did you become so unbearable?"

Ruan Shuyan: “…”

Why didn't the Thirteenth Princess ask her why she handed in the invitation, but instead cared about her temperament?

"Why aren't you talking? Do you still think that I am wrong?"

Ruan Shuyan came back to her senses: "I didn't mean that. I was just... distressed."

"Troubled? Troubled by those two rejected posts?"

Ruan Shuyan was silent again. Why did the Thirteenth Princess always talk about the post?

and--

She glanced at Nalan Jinxiu inconspicuously. All the reasons for humiliating her were right in front of her. Was Nalan Jinxiu's focus off?

"No, I am just worried about who to give the newly acquired Shuiyunjin to."

Nalan Jinxiu was getting angry, and suddenly heard this, and her reaction slowed down: "What did you say?"

"Shuiyunjin is a very unique fabric. Your Highness, would you like to take a look?"

Ruan Shuyan's indifferent look made Nalan Jinxiu frown. She vaguely felt that something was wrong.

"You didn't cry?"

Ruan Shuyan asked back: "Why should I cry?"

"Then your eyes..."

Ruan Shuyan said, "Before I came in, I felt my eyes were itchy, so I rubbed them twice."

"boom!"

Nalan Jinxiu smashed the teacup beside her and pointed at Ruan Shuyan's shaking hands: "So when you just listened to me talking, you were making fun of me?"

Ruan Shuyan sighed secretly. She discovered that this Thirteenth Princess was really prone to wild imagination.

However, this temperament is becoming more and more different from what she had imagined before.

It seems that apart from Xie Yuchun, Nalan Jinxiu's temperament is not that extreme.

"Your Highness, do you want to see Shui Yunjin?"

The sudden interruption made Nalan Jinxiu freeze. She stared at Ruan Shuyan with wide eyes, but after a long time, she could only utter one sentence.

"Show it to this princess."

Ruan Shuyan curved her eyebrows and said, "Chun Tao, bring Shui Yunjin over here."

Not long after, Chuntao trotted in and brought Shui Yunjin in.

The moment the cloth appeared, Nalan Jinxiu's attention was attracted.

"This, this is the Shuiyunjin you mentioned?"

Ruan Shuyan nodded slightly, watching Nalan Jinxiu approach Shui Yunjin, and said slowly: "Is she very beautiful?"

Nalan Jinxiu reached out and touched it: "It's very beautiful. This princess has never seen it in the palace. Where did you get this fabric?"

She was so absorbed in this that she answered very honestly.

But soon, she reacted, turned around and glared at Ruan Shuyan fiercely.

"you……"

"If Your Highness wears clothes made of this cloth and appears in public, he will surely attract everyone's attention."

Ruan Shuyan slowed down her voice and described the scene to Nalan Jinxiu.

After a long time, Nalan Jinxiu snorted coldly.

"As expected of a merchant's daughter, you were embarrassed by me before, but you still wanted to use me to do business. Aren't you angry?"

"Monarchs and ministers are different."

After Ruan Shuyan uttered these four words, she stopped talking. She was also angry in her heart, but she had not suffered much injustice in the previous confrontation. This time she was being used, so it would be okay to tolerate it for the time being.

Nalan Jinxiu is much easier to deal with than others.

In silence, Nalan Jinxiu sighed and said, "I accept this cloth. As for the rumors in the capital, I will block them for you as a reward for your gift of cloth."

Ruan Shuyan said respectfully: "As your highness commands, Chuntao, send the remaining horse over as well."

Chun Tao: “?”

Aren’t there still many?

She thought about it, but did not show any expression on her face. Instead, she quickly brought over the second piece of cloth.

Nalan Jinxiu glanced at Ruan Shuyan, then left with the palace maid proudly.

Watching them leave, Ruan Shuyan's fingertips trembled slightly.

"Miss, are you okay?"

Ruan Shuyan shook her head: "What can I do? Go and tell Madam Wang that the cloth has been sent out."

That afternoon, Bai came to Xie's house. She felt both distressed and annoyed when she saw Ruan Shuyan.

"How can you be so self-willed?"
