The leaves fall without parallel

The next day, before Ye Qingge got up, she was woken up by a knock on the door.

"Who is it?"

"Xiyan, you are my Qingshi"

When Ye Qingge opened the door, she saw Qingshi standing at the door, holding a new dress in her hand.

"This is a reward from the prince."

"Why did the prince give me a new dress?"

"I guess they gave it to you out of kindness because you were so poorly dressed."

"Yes, take it."

Qingshi stuffed the clothes into Ye Qingge's hands and turned away. Is this guy angry so early in the morning?

Ye Qingge looked at the skirt in front of her. Did the prince have a change of heart and actually give her a new skirt?

But the style of this skirt is ordinary, just a little better than the maid skirt she usually wears. Cut, so stingy.

Ye Qingge put on her skirt and Xiaolan helped her comb her hair into a bun

Not to mention that the whole person looks brand new, this ordinary face has also become much more handsome

"Who said my sister is not pretty? Look at how pretty I am in this outfit."

Xiaolan said happily

"Xiaolan, thank you. Without you, I don't know how to comb my hair."

If Ye Qingge had traveled through time without Xiaolan for so long, she would probably just tie her hair into a bun or a high ponytail every day when she goes out.

"As long as my sister likes it"

Xiaolan said with a smile

Ye Qingge packed up and prepared to go out. Xiao Lingche was already waiting at the door. He looked quite satisfied with Ye Qingge.

"Get in the car"

The two of them got on the carriage. After a while, Ye Qingge realized that this was not the way to the Ministry of Justice.

"Your Majesty, where are we going? Why is the route wrong?"

"Today is the eldest princess' birthday. I will go to celebrate her birthday first, and then go to the Ministry of Justice."

"Oh I got it"

The carriage continued to move for a while

"Your Majesty, we're here."

Qingshi reminded

"Your Highness, please go and celebrate the birthday. I'll be waiting for you in the carriage."

Ye Qingge didn't want to join in the fun

"You go in with me."

"Why? It's not appropriate for a maid like me to go in with you. Let Qingshi go in with you."

"Qingshi is a sword-bearing guard and cannot enter. You take the gift and follow me in."

"Oh, all right then."

"You don't seem happy"

"No, I'm afraid of making mistakes and making you laugh."

"No problem"

Ye Qingge followed Xiao Lingche into the princess's mansion with the gift

The eldest princess' birthday was really lively. Many carriages were parked at the door. The guests were all wives of officials and daughters.

Arriving at the banquet hall, it was already full of guests. Seeing Xiao Lingche coming, Xiao Si quickly informed

"Prince Xuan has arrived"

Everyone looked over

"King Xuan is here"

"so hot"

Some noble ladies lowered their heads shyly, while the wives were extremely satisfied with Xiao Lingche as if they were looking at their own son-in-law.

These people completely ignored the presence of Ye Qingge next to them

"Your Majesty, you are the focus wherever you go."

"Stop talking!" Xiao Lingche glanced back at Ye Qingge.

She shut up quickly

Coming before the eldest princess, Xiao Lingche bowed and saluted

"My nephew wishes my aunt happiness as vast as the East Sea and a long life as long as the sky. This is a small gift from my nephew, please accept it."

After saying that, he picked up the brocade box in Ye Qingge's hand and opened it.

A jade Guanyin lies quietly in the box

"My nephew knew that my aunt was a Buddhist, so he ordered someone to build this statue of Guanyin. I hope my aunt likes it."

The eldest princess took the box and looked at the jade Guanyin inside, her eyebrows and eyes were all smiling.

"Okay, okay, auntie likes your gift very much. Che'er, you are so thoughtful. Auntie hasn't seen you for a long time and I miss you so much. Come and sit next to auntie."

The eldest princess looked to be in her forties or fifties, but she was still radiant and kind-looking, and she looked like someone who was easy to get along with.

"Aunt, my nephew has official business to attend to and will not stay."

"Che'er, no matter how important your official duties are, you still have to eat, right? Just accompany your aunt to finish the meal before leaving. Today is my birthday, so just consider it a favor for me."

It seems that the eldest princess really likes her nephew

"Okay, I'll do as you say, Auntie."

Xiao Lingche took Ye Qingge to sit at the table to the left of the princess, next to the princess.

The princess is very happy

"Hurry up and serve Che'er my newly brewed peach blossom wine."

"Che'er, this is your favorite peach blossom wine. Your aunt specially left it for you. You must try it."

"Yes, thank you, auntie."

Xiao Lingche took a bite and it tasted really good. "Aunt's cooking skills have become more and more exquisite. This peach blossom wine is still so fragrant."

"As long as Che'er likes it."

The eldest princess couldn't stop laughing

Lin Ruoyue, who was sitting not far away, watched everything here and clenched her teacup. Brother Che had never looked at me straight in the eye since he came in.

He actually brought that maid to attend the eldest princess' birthday banquet today. Humph, you'll be in trouble later.

The guests were almost all there, and then the music started, and a group of singing girls came in and started dancing.

It's such a pleasure to eat delicious food while watching beautiful women dancing

Unfortunately, Ye Qingge could only stand behind Xiao Lingche. After a while, her legs felt a little sore, so she decided to go out for a walk.

"My Lord, I want to go out for a walk. I can't stand any longer."

"Go ahead, don't run around"

"Okay, Your Majesty."

Ye Qingge quietly left, the air outside was fresh

Behind the banquet hall was a garden with a small lake surrounded by various flowers and plants, some of which she had never seen before.

The lake is so clear that you can see the bottom. Occasionally you can see a few koi swimming around. The lake is covered with water lilies. The scenery is really beautiful.

Ye Qingge was so absorbed in watching that she didn't notice anyone behind her.

"go to hell"

Lin Ruoyue was about to push Ye Qingge into the water, but Ye Qingge quickly dodged to the side.

"what……"

Lin Ruoyue screamed and fell forward, pulling Ye Qingge with her. Ye Qingge was caught off guard and was pulled into the water by her.

"Help, help me quickly"

Lin Ruoyue splashing in the water

Ye Qingge swam to the shore by herself

"I told you to sneak attack me, and now you're suffering the consequences."

Ye Qingge said as she fixed the mask on her face, luckily everything was fine.

Suddenly, a gust of wind was heard, and Xiao Lingche flew into the lake and picked up Lin Ruoyue.

"Ahem, ahem, brother Che, Yue'er is so scared, wuwuwu"

Lin Ruoyue cried bitterly and hugged Xiao Lingche tightly.

"what happened"

Xiao Lingche looked at Ye Qingge who was also soaked

"she……"

"She pushed me into the water, and I instinctively pulled her in with me."

Lin Ruoyue said first

"That's not the case. I didn't push you. You pushed me and then you fell into the water and you pulled me up."

Ye Qingge explained

"Wow, brother Che, Yue'er almost died here today. If father knew, he would definitely be sad."

Lin Ruoyue was crying, and more and more people were watching.

"How dare a maidservant commit treason? Prince Xuan, you, this maidservant, must be taught a lesson."

Lin Ruoyue's friend, the daughter of the Minister of Revenue, Bai Sheng, speaks up for her friend

"Yes, yes, a maid is so bold."

The others echoed

"Apologize"

Xiao Lingche looked at Ye Qingge

"Apologize to Yue'er"

Ye Qingge? Did I hear correctly?

"Your Majesty, it's obviously her..."

"This King asks you to apologize"

Xiao Lingche roared
