Cold-faced Empress

Fu Siying's expression was extremely fierce and serious: "Forget about that brat who appeared out of nowhere. You deserve better."

Faced with her domineering elder sister, Yunzhi suddenly burst into tears. Her budding romance, which hadn't even taken shape, was about to be destroyed by her elder sister.

"I just like him..." Yunzhi cried very sadly.

Fu Siying sighed deeply, her tone suddenly tinged with a weariness she could no longer suppress: "You only like his appearance. Don't cry, it's just meeting someone. The more you value him, the more you'll overthink. Take it easy, okay?"

Holding her younger sister in her arms, Fu Siying's heart trembled violently with pain.

Meeting someone you like on Qixi Festival should be such a joyous occasion.

Li and Rong Chen were puzzled by Yunzhi's sudden outburst of tears. Fu Siying didn't say much either, focusing all her attention on comforting little Yunzhi.

A large number of palace servants entered the Langxuan Garden, and an old palace maid came to ask everyone to move elsewhere.

"Her Highness Consort De has set up seats for all the guests on the banks of the Xiangzhi River in the palace. In addition to enjoying the lanterns, solving riddles, and releasing river lanterns along the river, you can also hang red threads on the paired trees to seek a good match."

Fu Siying immediately patted Yunzhi's back lightly: "Did you hear that? The Qixi Festival activities have started. Don't cry, cheer up. You and Rong Chen have been preparing for so long, it's time to take the test!"

Her reminders and warnings distracted Yunzhi, gradually calming her sadness and disappointment, and turning her into a determination to solve the riddle well!

"If I guess correctly, could you help me find out the identity of that young master? I don't need love at first sight, can't I just get to know him slowly?" Yunzhi pleaded pitifully.

Fu Siying thought for a moment, then reluctantly replied, "Alright, I'll give that man a chance." With her around, no demons or monsters could get close to Yunzhi!

When the group arrived at the Xiangzhi River bank, they found that there were already many people there.

Besides Consort Mei and other imperial concubines, unmarried princes and officials, along with countless wives with their children, mingled and socialized here. Fu Siying even spotted the extremely busy Lady Wei and Ning Ruicheng at a glance.

The event was hosted by Consort De, but since Consort De was not present, everyone had to find a suitable place to sit and continue waiting.

Fu Siying walked into the arena, looked around, then suddenly trembled, her gaze fixed on a certain spot and she wouldn't move.

Hu Lingjing, who had just been carried away in a sedan chair by palace servants, looked perfectly fine and was dressed in dazzling gold, talking to some young lady.

And sitting next to that "Miss Na" was none other than Mo Canglan, who was wrapped in a white fox fur coat and holding a hand warmer!

Hu Lingjing looked at the nameless lady with admiration, while the nameless lady looked at Mo Canglan with infatuation. The nameless lady chatted and laughed with Mo Canglan while peeling an orange and arranging the segments one by one in a small cup, which she then presented to Mo Canglan's table.

Although Mo Canglan didn't eat, he nodded to Miss Wuming.

The way the nameless young lady tried to curry favor with Prince Mu was met with... completely unsurprised reactions from those around her?

Fu Siying grinds her molars.

Is Hu Lingjing trying to get herself killed? How dare she bring in a real fox spirit to loosen the soil on the tree with her name carved on it?!
