After arranging for his wife to take Fu Weixin to various banquets and events and receiving positive reviews, Governor Fang raised his target for the final destination of his adopted niece.

Wu Xiang's test last night gave him a reassurance. Governor Fang decided not to betroth Fu Weishen to his wife in a hurry. After all, good women are hard to find, and he has the patience to exchange for more benefits.

On November 8, Minister Dai of Rites, who had previously caused trouble due to drunkenness, finally welcomed his sister Miss Dai to Dongtai County after delaying for a long time, and arranged for her to meet the eldest prince at the racecourse of the palace.

According to Chunying, Dai was wearing a plain black robe, with a flying bun on her head, devoid of any gold, silver, or jade ornaments, tied only with a black hairband. She looked refreshingly cool, and the eldest prince was dazzled upon seeing her.

When Miss Dai finished her ceremony and was about to leave, a cold breeze blew by, and the hairband behind Miss Dai fluttered like a fairy.

The eldest prince was completely defeated and told Minister Dai and Miss Dai in a dazed manner that he would only wait for half a year.

"Miss Dai is so beautiful~" Jiang Yan sighed, and then asked curiously: "Haven't you been running errands for her these days? How do you know so many details?"

The story of the eldest prince and Miss Dai will soon spread among the various palaces, so there is no need to keep it secret.

Chunying said cheerfully, "Even though it's not convenient to hide people in a place as open as the racecourse, most of the government offices have people hiding and eavesdropping."

"Are these officials so idle..." Jiang Yan thought they had to pretend to be serious.

Soon she raised another important question, "Will so many people gather to watch the show? Will there be much competition for space? There won't be many good seats to watch the fun. And didn't the Crown Prince and his guards notice?"

Chunying didn't expect Jiang Yan to pay attention to this, but this was the first time she had seen such a scene, and she didn't know what words to use to describe it.

"Well... the eldest prince knew about it, and he tacitly allowed the palace and the various mansions to send people to observe. But Miss Dai is a lady after all, and to consider her face, the servants hid themselves."

Jiang Yan was shocked. Is it possible to allow onlookers and save face at the same time in this scene?

"As for how the people who went to investigate hid, that's a secret, and I can't tell you. However, because this was a collective operation, everyone knew each other's presence, so after the Crown Prince, Minister Dai, and the others left, they had a friendly exchange."

Chunying thought of her colleagues coming back covered in dust and black, and was extremely grateful that she was sent to Fu Nulang in time to avoid this incident.

"No need to tell the secret, no need to tell it, I don't want to know at all." Jiang Yan waved his hands frantically wisely.

Sensing Chunying's cheerful mood, her mind, consumed by gossip, suddenly resurfaced. "Didn't you say a few days ago that you didn't like to talk about gossip? Today, you actually took the initiative to tell me... Tell me, what's your intention?"

"There's no need to be so nervous." Chunying wasn't embarrassed by her inconsistencies. She carefully recalled what she had said that day and calmly made amends: "I just don't want to be asked to explain with great emotion. A simple narration is fine."

Jiang Yan could empathize with this explanation. After all, she was also unhappy when Fu Nulang asked her to perform in person.

She raised three fingers on her right hand and said solemnly, "I swear, I absolutely never mentioned the words 'expressive and moving' to Miss Fu."
