The Rebirth of a Daughter: My Lord, I Will Never Be a Concubine

Su Yanhua looked at the situation and didn't know what to say. This was the first time they met since he was rescued by Xing Jian.

To be honest, she had a lot of questions she wanted to ask him, but their relationship had not reached that level yet. Besides, she didn't know whether Nalan Yanyu's feelings for her were true or not.

The more she was with Nalan, the more she felt that Nalan was hiding something from her, and these things became a barrier between her and him, making her perception of Nalan even more uncertain.

Nalan Yanyu walked forward, his delicate face like jade still as gentle as ever, seemingly unchanged.

"The poison in your body has been cleared, and your health should be much better now."

Su Yanhua turned her head to look at her injured arm. It had been bandaged very carefully. Apart from a slight pain when she moved it, there was nothing serious.

Such a gentle tone, like a spring breeze, always soothes the restlessness in her heart. This feeling is like returning to Liuwang Village, where the two of them trust each other and care about each other without reservation.

"Nalan, have you ever..." Hiding something from me?

Before Su Yanhua could finish her words, she was interrupted by a voice outside.

"Sir, the palace dress is ready."

The familiar feeling disappeared, and Su Yanhua stood up and moved away.

Nalan Yanyu glanced at Su Yanhua, and the light in his eyes dimmed.

A woman came in, holding a square tray with neat and gorgeous palace clothes on it.

"This is..." Su Yanhua looked at Nalan Yanyu in disbelief: "This is the palace dress I customized before!"

How did he know?

Nalan had no intention of explaining to Su Yanhua, his eyes slightly raised.

"Try it!"

She was wearing a light blue palace dress with tiny cherry blossom petals embroidered on the hem of her skirt. She wore a jade hairpin slanted on her head, decorated with thin silver beaded tassels. Her face was lightly made up, which was enough to attract other people's attention.

Wu'er's eyes were filled with astonishment, and she stood there in a daze, exclaiming in admiration.

He took back what he said about her not being good-looking. This delicate face was as cold and clear as the moon, and one glance back was enough to captivate the whole country.

There are many women with stunning looks in the world, but Miss Su's temperament is even more eye-catching than her appearance. Miss Su may be the most graceful woman he has ever seen. Even such beautiful clothes are just a foil, showing her graceful and proud character to the fullest.

Nalan Yanyu's eyes always maintained a gentle smile, but if you look closely, you will find that when Su Yanhua slowly walked towards you, his eyes were rippling with layers of water waves, so gentle that it seemed to melt people.

Royal Palace

The towering city wall, like an insurmountable barrier, stood silently before their eyes. At this moment, the area in front of the city wall was like a magnificent ocean, filled with gorgeous and exquisite carriages.

The bodies of these carriages are carved with exquisite patterns, and the curtains are embellished with sparkling gems. Each one exudes nobility and luxury.

The people who slowly stepped down from the carriage were dressed in gorgeous clothes, like walking scrolls. Their clothes were of fine texture and colorful, and every stitch and thread contained exquisite craftsmanship.

Each person exuded a proud and elegant demeanor, as if born with aristocratic grace. The resonant sound of the ladies' delicate shoes, treading on their shoes, seemed to betray their status and position. The ornate pearls and jade adorning their hair shimmered dazzlingly in the sunlight, adding a touch of mystery and elegance.

Led by palace maids, they glided into the coveted palace like a flock of beautiful butterflies. The palace's architecture was magnificent, splendid, its carved beams and painted buildings exuding an immense majesty and solemnity. Before the banquet began, the entire palace was filled with an atmosphere of tense anticipation.

The Empress had specially gathered all the noble ladies of Lingcheng together for what was undoubtedly a grand banquet. Upon hearing the news, the ladies all dressed up in all the finery, appearing to be glamorous.

They put on their most beautiful clothes and precious jewellery, showing their best side. Holding each other's arms, they walked into the palace with smiles on their faces, as if the whole world was at their feet.

Their eyes sparkled with excitement and curiosity, and they were full of anticipation for the upcoming palace banquet.

Mo Qinghe was waiting at the palace gate early. When he saw Su Ruoxi getting off the carriage, he walked forward angrily with anger in his eyes.

"Where's Su Yanhua?"

She had been waiting here since early morning just to teach her a lesson in front of all the noble ladies in Lingcheng. The first two times were not in the palace, she couldn't beat her, and her status couldn't suppress her. This time in the palace, let's see what Su Yanhua can say.

Su Ruoxi caught a glimpse of the noble lady who stopped and looked over, and she awkwardly stopped Mo Qinghe.

"Princess, my sister isn't here!"

"What?" Mo Qinghe couldn't believe it, "She's so bold! She actually dared to disobey the emperor's order!"

"I don't know either. My sister hasn't been in the house for three or four days." Su Ruoxi said softly.

"He hasn't been home for three or four days. I'm afraid he went to meet some adulterer?" Mo Qinghe snorted coldly, making groundless speculations.

Hearing Mo Qinghe say this, Su Ruoxi's eyes drooped and she didn't say anything.

Suddenly there was a scream from the crowd.

"Prince Mo—"

"It's Prince Mo!"

The noble ladies cried out in surprise. They didn't expect that they would meet Prince Mo, one of the three young masters, before the palace banquet.

Mo Cerong was dressed in a purple-black palace dress, looking majestic. His eyes were cold, like a lone and proud eagle, and his aura was oppressive and overbearing.

Su Ruoxi straightened up unconsciously, straightened her hair, and had a shy smile on her face.

"Why is Prince Mo walking towards Su Ruoxi?"

"Haven't you heard that Prince Mo seems to like Su Ruoxi?"

"Ah, but Su Yanhua is Prince Mo's fiancée."

After she recovered from her injury last time, she had not seen Mo Cerong again. She only heard that the emperor sent him to track down the assassin in Wuhua Mountain. This was the first time they met after many days.

Mo Cerong walked over slowly, his dark eyes swept across the carriage, and he asked in a slightly softer tone, "Isn't Su Yanhua here?"

These words froze Su Ruoxi's smile. She looked at Mo Cerong, trying to force a smile, but she couldn't.

She didn't expect that the first person he asked about when he saw her was Su Yanhua!

Su Ruoxi only felt a surge of jealousy rising slowly, and she held the handkerchief tightly to calm herself down.

Before Su Ruoxi could say anything, Mo Qinghe, fearing that the world would not be in chaos, shouted: "Uncle, please stop looking. Su Yanhua didn't come—"

"She hasn't been home for three or four days. She might be having sex with that adulterer."

This sentence was said so loudly that the noble ladies nearby could hear it and started discussing it.

"Oh my God, Su Yanhua is going to marry Prince Mo in a few days, and she is so unfaithful to her husband."

"She is not a woman who is loyal to her husband. Otherwise, why would she participate in the men's martial arts test?"

"When I met Su Yanhua that day, not only was her expression cold, but she also couldn't play the piano, chess, calligraphy, or painting. I really don't know what Prince Mo liked about her."

"I think Prince Mo should cancel the engagement immediately. This way I'll have a chance."

"You fickle woman, don't you like Prince Nalan?"

As the noise beside him gradually grew louder, Mo Cerong's eyes gradually became gloomy.
