Top white, rich and beautiful, the princess is reborn and the revenge story

The Skirt-Tent Banquet was held in Yonglefang in the center of Chang'an City. There was a lake in Yonglefang called Nanchi. Pavilions and towers were built around Nanchi, and various flowers, plants and trees were planted. Together, they were called Furong Garden.

The greatest pleasure of the Skirt Tent Banquet is the flower contest. The noble ladies all wear flowers on their heads and compete to see who is the most beautiful.

In previous years, Zhao Yuanqing had participated enthusiastically in order to compete with Zhao Baozhu, and he would carefully buy a lot of flowers to choose from every time. But this year he was not in the mood.

She asked the florist to send a red peony, but it didn't look bad when inserted, so she planned to wear this as a hairpin.

After a while, Meng Jiu came with a red sandalwood box and reported, "Your Highness, someone sent this."

"What is it? Open it and see."

When the box was opened, an extremely beautiful plant came into Zhao Yuanqing's sight. The leaves were lush and green, slightly curled up, and on top of it was a flower as big as a bowl. The color of the flower was like white jade, and the petals were slightly inward, revealing brown stamens inside.

Meng Jiu was surprised and said, "Your Highness, this flower is still alive!"

Zhao Yuanqing took a closer look and saw that there was indeed a flowerpot underneath. The pot was filled with soil and the roots of the flowers were buried in the soil.

No wonder the flower looks so fresh, there are dewdrops on the petals.

"Who sent it?"

"I don't know. The concierge said a man left the box at the door and said it was for you, and then he left."

Oh, Zhao Yuanqing nodded. "I've never seen this flower before. I don't know what it is. Do you know?"

You have to ask Wen Qian about this. She knew it at a glance, "Your Highness, this is Tianshan Snow Lotus, a precious Chinese herbal medicine that grows on the steep cliffs and in the cracks of ice-soaked rocks in the Tianshan Mountains. The climate there is extremely cold, the snow never melts year-round, and the conditions are extremely harsh.

Because the environment is harsh, it is extremely difficult to pick them, so they are expensive. These are still in the soil and are extremely rare. I have never seen them before."

"Chang'an City is much hotter than the Tianshan Mountains. Why is this snow lotus still alive?"

Wen Qian tested it with her hand, "Your Highness, there are ice fragments in the soil, which is freezing to the bone, so the snow lotus is still alive."

Meng Jiu said, "Your Highness, the Skirt Tent Banquet is about to begin. Someone gave you the Heavenly Snow Lotus just in time for you to wear it and amaze everyone!"

Zhao Yuanqing was amused by her. "What's the big deal? Who would dare to wear something sent by an unknown person? What if it's poisonous?"

Wen Qian took out the snow lotus and repeatedly tested it with a silver needle. "Your Highness, it's not poisonous. Besides, the Tianshan Snow Lotus is a detoxifying herb. You won't be in any trouble if you wear it."

Meng Jiu and Wen Qian both advised Zhao Yuanqing to wear it. Wearing the Heavenly Snow Lotus at the Skirt Tent Banquet is absolutely unique!

Zhao Yuanqing couldn't resist them, so she picked the red peony and replaced it with a Tianshan snow lotus. The jade-white flower made Zhao Yuanqing's hair look even darker and more lustrous, and her cheeks looked rosy and tender, making her look pure and bright.

Wen Xing exclaimed, "Princess, you are so beautiful!"

Zhao Yuanqing put on her makeup in the mirror and felt beautiful. "Okay, let's go to the skirt tent banquet!"

"Yes!"

Meng Jiu, Wen Qian and Wen Xing all accompanied on this trip. The three of them each performed their duties and protected Zhao Yuanqing perfectly.

At Heniantang, a large medicine shop in Chang'an City, the owner, Chai Dong, took out a piece of letter paper, wrote a sentence, "Flowers have been delivered", put it in an envelope, and after a while, took it out again and added two words, "No thanks."

After a while, he took it out again, crossed out the words "No thanks" and wrote "Thank you."

He muttered, "Two horses ran to death just to give me a Tianshan Snow Lotus. I thought it was going to save someone, but it turned out to be worn on the head. What a waste of talent!"

Shibadong sealed the letter and called out, "Cang Er!"

A young man ran out from the back of the hall, "Boss, you called me?"

"Deliver this letter to the post station, and then don't come back yet. Go to Furong Garden in Yonglefang."

"Master, why am I going to Hibiscus Garden? The ladies are having a banquet there today. There are soldiers guarding it, and no one is allowed to approach."

"I didn't ask you to go in. You just stand guard outside the door. When the banquet is over and the ladies come out, when they throw away their hairpins, you must keep an eye out for any Tianshan Snow Lotus. If you do, pick it up for me!"

Xanthium sibiricum laughed and said, "Boss, you are really confused. Tianshan Snow Lotus is a medicinal herb, it is dry, how could anyone wear that!"

Chai Dong got angry and grabbed Cang Er's ears, "Are you the boss? Or am I the boss?"

Xanthium covered his ears, "You are! You are!"

Chai Dong kicked him and said, "Just go if I tell you to! Go and pick up some fresh Tianshan Snow Lotus for me!"

"But I've never seen fresh Tianshan Snow Lotus!"

Chai Dong sighed, "Just follow Princess Shanzhen's carriage. If she drops flowers, pick them up. If not, forget it."

"I understand, boss."

"Go!"

The cocklebur ran away in a flash.

Crown Princess Lu Ruoyi arrived at Furong Garden early in the morning. This was her first time to host a banquet independently, and she was very excited.

But yesterday the Queen talked about choosing a concubine for the Fourth Prince, which made her toss and turn until she fell asleep at dawn. When she woke up, her face was blue and she had dark circles on each side of her eyes. She had to use a lot of lead powder to cover them up.

Lu Ruoyi is just twenty years old and still very young, but compared to these unmarried girls of sixteen or seventeen, she is already considered old.

She looked at these young girls, each with a big flower in her hair, fair skin, and extremely beautiful appearance, and felt jealous and sad. She stared at them hatefully, wondering which one would become the fourth prince's wife.

The Empress, Concubine Hui, Concubine Ming Zhaoyi and other concubines also arrived at Hibiscus Garden. They all sat in a pavilion in the distance, looking at the group of girls below.

The most anxious person here is Ming Zhaoyi. She has already thought of several women with good family backgrounds and asked Zhao Yushu to meet them.

Concubine Hui was also a little anxious. It was time for the Third Prince to marry a wife. She wanted to take a good look at those noble ladies at this banquet.

Only the queen was not in a hurry. The prince had already married, so she didn't need to go out and choose a daughter-in-law. However, this daughter-in-law was worse than not having her.

Zhao Baozhu also arrived very early, and she was accompanied by someone, Cui Yi.

Ever since Zhao Baozhu and Cui Hao were caught cheating, their marriage was confirmed. From then on, Zhao Baozhu regarded herself as a member of the Cui family and always considered the Cui family. Now, she brought Cui Yi with her because she wanted to take advantage of this banquet to find a good family for Cui Yi.

Zhao Yushu received a task from Ming Zhaoyi, which was to observe several women carefully, as they were all the Fourth Prince's potential targets.

They were crowded here, and saw many figures on the mountain diagonally opposite. It turned out that those young men could not wait and wanted to catch a glimpse of the beautiful faces of the ladies.

The royal family did not stop them. The Daqing Kingdom was very open-minded and allowed such behavior. Meeting and getting along before marriage was much better than getting married blindly and becoming a pair of resentful couple.

Lu Ruoyi looked at the figure in front with hatred. He said that he only liked her, but when he heard that there was a concubine selection, he came faster than anyone else. What a liar.
