I made my fortune by livestreaming in ancient times.

We've finally arrived at the Princess's residence.

The gate was bustling with activity, with carriages and horses filling the entrance. People in pink, white, and green robes stepped out of the carriages, each one gracefully exchanging greetings.

Zhu Luo got out of the car with Ban Xia's help.

She didn't like riding in carriages to begin with, and with her back still aching slightly, the bumpy ride made her feel like all her bones were about to fall apart.

After she got out of the car, the area in front of the door immediately fell silent, and all sorts of eyes were cast at her. After all, people hadn't seen each other for six years, so they had to recognize her at least a little.

Shen Nianjiao was still doing her final touch-ups in the sedan chair.

"What kind of makeup is this? Why are your eyes different colors?" Qi Rong could hardly recognize her daughter.

“That’s called colored contact lenses. My mother probably hasn’t heard of them. It’s a new style of makeup that will definitely make me stand out.”

Qi Rong didn't quite understand. Although her daughter was pretty, her eyes were a bit too big and her skin was frighteningly pale. But there was clearly not enough time to change her makeup.

In the previous game, the sisters also came to the princess's mansion to attend the flower viewing banquet.

Because of Shen Zhuluo's appearance, the noble ladies in the capital brought up the Shen family's past again, openly and secretly mocking her for being the child of a concubine and therefore not allowed to attend today's banquet.

Today's flower-viewing banquet is actually a gathering of the capital's most prestigious families, and also the preliminary selection for the Crown Prince's selection. Only those chosen by the Second Princess are qualified to ultimately attend the palace banquet hosted by the Empress.

Therefore, all those present today are legitimate daughters of their respective families; illegitimate daughters are not qualified to attend.

The thought of those wealthy ladies who looked down on her made Shen Nianjiao feel a little agitated, so she applied another layer of powder to her face.

In the previous round, because Madam Su left with the family fortune, the household was in financial difficulty. Shen Nianjiao had no good makeup or new clothes, and was ridiculed by many people.

But today, they should be laughing at someone else.

She couldn't wait to see how those who used to mock and ridicule her would look at her with new respect.

Zhu Luo hadn't recovered yet when she suddenly felt a strange gaze out of the corner of her eye. Startled, she grabbed Banxia and tried to leave.

"Luo Luo!" The woman in the blue robe called her name excitedly and rushed over in a moment, hugging her tightly. Zhu Luo felt as if her body was lifted into the air, and the people in front of her turned into blurry images.

"Your Highness, please put me down!"

As luck would have it, the Fourth Princess, Xiao Zhuoying, was also loitering at the entrance.

These past two days I've been so busy with home and house repairs that I've completely forgotten about this special princess.

"I won't let go. I've waited for you for so long, this is what I deserve." Xiao Zhuoying put her down, but her hands still held her in her arms.

The passing ladies stared in astonishment, their eyes meeting and exchanging glances as they winked and made faces.

Another young lady is about to be ruined by the Fourth Princess.

As the two were struggling, a luxurious carriage stopped in front of the princess's residence.

"That's General Qi's carriage!" someone exclaimed.

Shen Nianjiao took a deep breath. At this moment, the opening theme song for the official broadcast was playing in her live stream.

The float adorned with a giant image of her finally arrived in front of the film company she had recently joined in real life.

The mirror was aimed at the carriage curtain; her extraordinary life was about to begin.

At this moment, Madam Qi and the eldest daughter of the Qi family had already gotten out of the luxury car.

Madam Qi wore a sapphire blue brocade gown with gold thread, the cuffs inlaid with delicate pearls and gemstones, while Miss Qi wore a snow-white satin long dress with silver threads, embroidered with several plum blossoms defying the snow.

One is elegant and luxurious, the other is fresh and refined; both will be adorned in dazzling attire at the event.

Zhu Luo didn't know them; she could only understand them through the mirror.

Madam Qi's original surname was Liu. Qi Xinyue was the eldest daughter, and both of her sons were generals in the military.

Zhu Luo has already dealt with the youngest son, Qi Jun.

When Shen Nianjiao got out of the car, she happened to meet her cousin.

She was somewhat displeased; she hadn't expected to encounter such a formidable figure so soon.

Aunt? Cousin?

Qi Xinyue greeted them casually first.

She has a graceful demeanor and a warm smile.

Qi Rong felt a slight ache in her teeth.

Who would have thought that her brother and sister-in-law's family, whom she had once helped, would live such a lavish life?

My niece, who used to wear patched dresses when she was little, now looks like a well-bred young lady.

Fortunately, her daughter Shen Nianjiao was dressed quite well, but she only found out this morning that Jiaojiao had such a beautiful dress and headdress, which made her suspicious. She would have to wait until she got home to ask her.

Shen Nianjiao's lips twitched slightly as she slowly stepped forward and bowed, saying, "Hello, Auntie. Hello, Cousin."

Qi Rong also greeted her sister-in-law.

Many people stopped to wait and greet the family of General Qi, the favorite of the court.

Suddenly, Qi Xinyue exclaimed, "Auntie, what is that hairpin you're wearing...?"

Qi Rong trembled as someone suddenly pointed a finger at her: "What's wrong?"

Liu asked curiously, "Does Xinyue recognize this hairpin?"

“Of course, Mother, do you remember? Last month I ordered a batch of goods from the jewelry store, including this hairpin. I personally selected it, so it can’t be wrong.”

Qi Rong stiffened and suddenly glanced at Zhu Luo.

Zhu Luo met her gaze and smiled sweetly.

Qi Rong immediately felt a chill run from the soles of her feet straight up to the top of her head.

This sudden turn of events directly resulted in those waiting for greetings becoming spectators of gossip.

Liu shook her head: "Xin Yue, don't be mistaken, otherwise why is your aunt wearing it?"

Qi Xinyue, however, was adamant and insisted that it was her hairpin: "When I went to the jewelry store yesterday, the owner told me it had been sold, and the record listed the Shen family. I thought there was a mistake, since my aunt never buys from that store. But when I saw it today..."

Qi Rong gritted her teeth and said with a forced smile, "This was brought home by my husband. Perhaps it's the same style that Xin Yue ordered."

She was drenched in cold sweat, her nerves were on edge, and with just a slight provocation, she would go completely limp.

Shen Zhuluo!

She's the one who did it!

She bought Qi Xinyue's hairpin and then put it in her own hand.

She clenched her fists, her mind repeatedly etching Shen Zhuluo's name into her heart.

It was Liu who came to the rescue: "Look, your aunt said that there are important matters to attend to today, so don't keep the princess waiting."

"But..." Qi Xinyue was still indignant.

Liu gave her a look, and she lowered her head: "Never mind, Aunt, perhaps I was mistaken."

Without waiting for Qi Rong's reply, she pulled Liu Shi and headed towards the princess's residence.

His footsteps were heavy, as if carrying anger.

Qi Rong was left standing there, stunned, like a piece of dry wood.

Zhu Luo wasn't surprised.

Because she directed this play.

Ultimately, it's all because Qi Rong was so greedy.

Xiao Zhuoying thought she didn't know the inside story, so she whispered in her ear to explain: "Qi Shi is the concubine's daughter of the Qi family. Now that General Qi has a position, it is reasonable for Qi Xinyue to look down on her aunt's family. Shen Nianjiao also disliked her cousin in the past. It's a give and take, so no one should feel wronged. Let's ignore them and let me see what kind of dress you are wearing today!"

While Zhu Luo was still processing the story of the Qi family, she suddenly felt a chill as Xiao Zhuoying took off her cloak.
