My bedroom is connected to ancient times, I am in love with the prince

Two days later.

Zhenbeihou Mansion.

Red lanterns are hung high, colorful ribbons are fluttering, and the air is filled with a festive atmosphere everywhere.

In the lobby, a huge red "Shou" character was hung high in the center. The flickering candlelight cast a peaceful light, making the atmosphere of the entire birthday banquet particularly joyous.

Marquis Jing'an Bai Chunian, along with his wife Zhang and his only legitimate daughter Bai Hanling, arrived at the Marquis Zhenbei's mansion early.

Yesterday, my sister sent someone to our house to tell them that she wanted to see Ling'er today and asked them to come over early.

The servants of the Marquis' Mansion led them to Xiaoxiang Courtyard.

As he stepped into the main house, Bai Chunian saw his sister Bai Rushuang and brother-in-law Zhenbei Hou sitting upstairs, while his nephew Heng'er and a pretty and slim woman sat next to each other downstairs.

The four of them had a very pleasant conversation and were in great joy.

"Brother and sister-in-law are here!" Bai saw a group of three people slowly walking in from the door, her face showed joy, and she shouted happily.

Hearing his mother's voice, Xie Beiheng turned his head, then stood up and saluted, saying respectfully: "Nephew greets uncle and aunt."

Then he nodded slightly to Bai Hanling who was following beside him, "Cousin."

Bai Hanling immediately bowed, smiled and said crisply, "Ling'er greets cousin."

After greeting each other, the three of them looked at the woman standing behind Xie Beiheng.

Seeing this, Lin Xiangxiang smiled and stepped forward, bowing gracefully, "Xiangxiang greets the Marquis, Madam."

Then he nodded gently to the girl standing beside him with a lily bun, who looked very smart and cute, and said, "Miss Bai."

Xie Beiheng told her that his uncle was Marquis Jing'an, and her registered residence in Dayue was with relatives from the old lady's family of Marquis Jing'an.

According to the relationship in the household registration, she should call Jing'an Hou her cousin, but it was fake after all, and it was the first time they met, so she really couldn't bring herself to call him that.

Seeing Lin Xiangxiang bowing, Bai Chunian and Zhang both smiled warmly and said, "Miss, there's no need to bow. Get up quickly."

Bai Hanling also bowed slightly and nodded in return with a smile.

At this moment, he was in Xiaoxiang Courtyard, chatting and laughing with his sister's family, and was even closer with his nephew. Although they had never met before, the three of them had guesses in their minds at this moment.

Seeing this, Mrs. Bai immediately asked them to sit down, and then asked Xiangxiang to sit on the chair in front of her.

Then, smiling, she introduced him, "This is Xiangxiang. Big brother, do you remember that a few days ago, I asked you if there were any distant relatives surnamed Lin in the Marquis of Jing'an's mansion?"

Bai Chunian nodded, "Didn't you say Heng'er wanted to register someone as a distant relative of the Marquis of Jing'an's mansion?"

After saying that, he seemed to think of something, his eyes lit up slightly, and he looked at Lin Xiangxiang.

Bai smiled and nodded, "Yes, this person is Xiangxiang."

"If you think about it, Xiangxiang is now the niece of my eldest brother and sister-in-law, and Ling'er's cousin."

Hearing this, the three of them were stunned.

Xie Beiheng stood up and bowed to Bai Chunian again, "Uncle, Xiangxiang is not from the capital. There are reasons why your nephew resorted to such a desperate measure."

"If anyone asks, please tell everyone, uncle and aunt, to acknowledge Xiangxiang's identity."

Bai Chunian was taken aback for a moment when he saw his nephew suddenly become so serious, then he burst into laughter, "Uncle was wondering why, but I didn't expect you were talking about this!"

He had watched Xie Beiheng grow up, so how could he not know what kind of nephew he was? He was obsessed with martial arts, and his only thought was protecting Dayue.

My sister has been looking forward to his marriage for a long time, but she has never seen him fall in love with any girl.

Now, for the sake of a girl, he is rushing to register her household and ask for their approval. Joking aside, he is willing to help his own nephew.

Then he looked at Lin Xiangxiang with a smile and said loudly: "My niece, since that's the case, from now on, when you see us, just call us uncle and aunt. And when you talk to Ling'er, call her cousin sister!"

Although Lin Xiangxiang was a little embarrassed, she stopped being shy when she saw how open-minded the other person was. She stood up with a smile and bowed again: "Hello, uncle and aunt."

Then he smiled and called out to Bai Hanling, "Cousin."

Bai Hanling immediately stood up and saluted Lin Xiangxiang, smiling brightly, "Ling'er greets cousin."

Seeing this, Mrs. Bai smiled and said to Bai Hanling, "Ling'er, your cousin is not familiar with the capital and doesn't know many people. At today's birthday banquet, you should take your cousin to meet more of the other young ladies."

Apart from Heng'er, Xiangxiang has no other relatives or friends in the capital, so she will inevitably feel lonely in the days to come.

She herself was in poor health and rarely left the house, so she had no chance to take Xiangxiang to meet some young women in the capital.

It's a good opportunity to take advantage of today's birthday party to let Ling'er introduce her to some people. If she can make some good friends with similar interests, she will have someone she can talk to in the capital in the future.

Bai Hanling's eyebrows immediately flew up, and he patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, Auntie!"

It was getting late, and the group left Xiaoxiang Courtyard one after another.

Xie Qinchuan took Xie Beiheng to the front hall to receive the male guests, while the female guests were received by Concubine Fang and led to the main building's reception room.

Bai rarely went out, and over time her dress became simpler and more elegant.

But today she was wearing a Shu brocade dress embroidered with bright peony flowers in gold and silver threads, a sapphire headpiece on her head, and jade bracelets on her wrists complementing her appearance, making her look elegant and noble. Her usually pale face now had a rosy glow upon closer inspection.

Guests came in droves.

Mrs. Bai sat upright on a chair in the reception room, accepting the guests' congratulations with a smile.

The guests coming today are either rich or noble. Every lady and girl is dressed in powder and rouge, adorned with jewels and precious stones, and looks extremely expensive.

Lin Xiangxiang and Bai Hanling did not go to the garden to appreciate the flowers with the other women in the mansion, but sat with Bai on the chairs in the reception room.

At this time, the wife of the Minister of Revenue, Mrs. Jiang, walked in slowly with a happy smile on her face, followed by a carefully dressed young girl.

After Jiang handed the birthday gift to the servant of the Marquis' Mansion, she smiled at Bai and said:

"As the saying goes, happiness fills the air. I see you look much better today than before!"

After saying that, he turned to the girl following behind him and said, "Qian'er, go and congratulate your Aunt Bai on her birthday."

Song Fangqian stepped forward with a beaming smile: "Qian'er congratulates Aunt Bai on her birthday. I wish Aunt Bai to be as constant as the moon, as rising as the sun, as evergreen as the pine and cypress."

This child has been well-behaved and clever since she was little. Mrs. Bai likes her very much and quickly said with a smile, "Get up quickly. No need to be so polite."

Song Fangqian stood up with a smile, and when she saw Lin Xiangxiang sitting next to her, the smile on her face suddenly disappeared.

"Why are you here?" Song Fangqian stared at Lin Xiangxiang and asked loudly.

Lin Xiangxiang: ...

Oh, she really doesn't want to talk to her!

Before she could speak, Bai Hanling replied loudly: "She is my cousin, why can't she be here?"

"impossible!"

"Cousin? What kind of cousin is she to you?"

Ever since she last met Lin Xiangxiang in Yunjin Building, Song Fangqian had someone investigate her, and the result shocked her!
