A short night is hard to please! A stunningly handsome prince dotes on her exclusively.

"No ranking?"

The two asked in unison, "Why are there no rankings for the royal offspring?"

"Yes, although Prince Xuan is the same age as Prince Lie, he is half a year older. I once heard an old nanny in the palace mention that on the day Prince Xuan was born, there was another little prince who was born at the same time. However, the concubine had a difficult childbirth, and both the little prince and the concubine died at birth. The late emperor was deeply saddened and did not know the order in which the two princes were born, so he ordered that the title of 'second prince' not be given. In addition, Consort Xuan was the most favored concubine at the time, so on the day the little prince was one month old, the late emperor made an exception and bestowed the title of Prince Xuan upon His Highness. From then on, the entire palace only referred to him as His Highness Prince Xuan. All the other princes were granted the title of prince after they came of age. In Yuanqi, this honor is reserved for His Highness Prince Xuan!"

"I see! So the Xuan King is just the Xuan King, and not ranked according to age among the other princes?"

"Yes, ma'am."

Xin Moyan still found it strange. He clearly knew her that day, otherwise he wouldn't have known her name was Xin Moyan.

"Cai Lian, have I seen this Xuan King before?"

Cailian frowned instantly, and after thinking for a long time, she said, "Miss, Prince Xuan left the palace when he was eight years old, before you entered the palace! When the late emperor was alive, Prince Xuan rarely entered the palace. Every time he entered the palace, it was only to visit the Empress Dowager at Yongning Palace. As for you, Miss... you have been following Prince Lie since you were thirteen years old, so you probably don't know Prince Xuan."

"Thirteen years old? Yan Yan, I didn't expect you to know how to pursue happiness at thirteen!"

Hua Buyu leaned forward, looking at Xin Moyan with a gossipy expression, leaving Xin Moyan feeling helpless for a while.

However, since they didn't know each other before, why did Yuan Huaixuan know her name?

As the group was engrossed in their conversation, a haughty and arrogant voice suddenly reached their ears.

"Hey! You guys over there, what are you whispering about?"

They turned around and saw a young girl in a sky-blue iris-fringe palace dress being surrounded by a large group of brightly colored women.

Xin Moyan raised an eyebrow and turned to look at Cailian with a puzzled expression.

Cailian's face turned pale instantly, and she gently tugged at her sleeve, saying, "Miss, let's hurry and go find the Empress Dowager! This is Princess Jia'en. She always causes you trouble whenever she sees you. Let's go quickly!"

Hua Buyu immediately stepped in front of her, speaking in a tone befitting a thug, "Princess, right? It seems those people must have bullied you a lot before. Don't be afraid, Yan Yan, I won't let them bully you!"

"I won't speak. I'm not afraid. I just don't want to cause trouble for my brother."

"I never said I was going to cause trouble. I won't bother anyone unless they bother me. Let's see what they have to say when they come over."

The group of people quickly approached the group of girls. The girl in the lead, who looked to be about sixteen or seventeen, had chubby cheeks and a small, cute mouth and nose. Her pupils were a light color, like two crystal-clear amber beads. She exuded a faint aura of spirituality and was now proudly sizing up the girls.

Yuan Huaixue put her hands on her hips, and after seeing their faces clearly, a hint of jealousy flashed in her eyes. She asked arrogantly, "This princess is asking you, what were you saying just now?"

"Your Highness...this woman in white looks like..."

A woman in a pink dress, but whose attire did not resemble that of a woman from the inner palace, whispered a reminder, seemingly recognizing Xin Moyan's identity.

"Like what?"

"She looks like Princess Danhua!"

Yuan Huaixue seemed to have heard a joke, pointing at Xin Moyan and laughing in an extremely spoiled and willful manner.

"Hahaha~ Tang Huishuang, are you kidding me? How could that ugly woman Xin Moyan be her?"

"Indeed, Your Highness is absolutely right..."

"Miss Tang, don't be so blind! Hahaha~~~"

Tang Huishuang blushed immediately and whispered, "Your Highness, I'm not mistaken, she really does look like Princess Danhua!"

"Hmph! Perhaps Miss Tang has missed Princess Danhua because she hasn't seen her for so long!"

"With Princess Danhua looking so wretched, it's no wonder Miss Tang is so concerned, hahaha~~~"

Hahaha~~~

Yuan Huaixue couldn't help but burst out laughing; she simply couldn't believe that the fair-skinned, beautiful woman in front of her was Xin Moyan!

Hua Buyu grew increasingly furious as she listened. She took a deep breath and shouted, "How could it not be her? My little Yan Yan is so stunningly beautiful and charming. Are you all blind? You can't even recognize a living person standing right in front of you!"

Everyone was startled by the sudden shout and froze on the spot. Only Yuan Huaixue quickly came to her senses and stared at Xin Moyan uncertainly.

"You...you are really Xin Moyan?"

"Mo Yan greets Princess Jia En."

Xin Moyan greeted her casually, and pulled Hua Buyu to her side. She couldn't help but worry that Buyu had just yelled at the princess and Yuan Huaixue must have held a grudge against her.

"Are you really Xin Moyan?"

Yuan Huaixue was a little flustered. Just last month, she had seen her looking like a flamboyant ghost, so how did she become so radiant now? Moreover, she had heard that her personality had changed drastically after falling into the water and waking up, but there was no mention of her appearance changing like this.

"Yes!"

The woman standing beside Tang Huishuang couldn't help but add fuel to the fire, saying, "Oh! Princess Danhua, I didn't expect you to change so much in just one month!"

"You're the one who looks like poop! Your whole family looks like poop!"

Hua Buyu broke free from Xin Moyan's grasp and roared angrily at the woman opposite her, startling her greatly.

Upon hearing her words, Xin Moyan subconsciously frowned. Why did Bu Yu's words feel a little strange?

"Princess... this woman is incredibly fierce!"

She couldn't understand what the woman in red was saying, but she was intimidated by her gaze and dared not argue back. She could only tug at Yuan Huaixue's sleeve, signaling the princess, who had the highest status at the scene, to make the decision for her.

Yuan Huaixue quickly calmed down and asked with half-closed eyes, "Even if you are Xin Moyan, who is this woman? How come I've never seen her before?"

Xin Moyan remained calm and composed, replying, "Your Highness, Buyu is a close friend of mine. Today, my brother and I have come to the palace to celebrate the birthday of our aunt, the Empress Dowager."

Upon hearing Xin Moling's name, Yuan Huaixue's eyes lit up instantly. Then, realizing what she meant, she asked uncertainly, "You mean, this commoner woman was invited to the palace by you and Brother Ling?"

"Exactly!"

Yuan Huaixue became increasingly agitated as she listened, her brows furrowing tightly, her face filled with rage. She then shouted angrily, "You audacious commoner! How dare you enter the palace without royal permission? What are your intentions? Guards, seize this woman of unknown origin!"

"Hey Hey hey!"
