A five-year-old goddess, raised to become an emperor for all time through a bronze mirror.

Pei Yunjing frowned slightly, about to refuse Niannian's expectant request, but his gaze was involuntarily drawn to her big, blinking eyes.

At this moment, Nian Nian is like an adorable little kitten, instantly softening one's heart.

He hesitated for a moment, but ultimately couldn't bring himself to refuse the innocent little girl.

He sighed softly, a slight smile playing on his lips, and said gently:

"alright."

Pei Yunjing shifted his gaze to Niannian, carefully examining her modern-style outfit.

He knew very well that if he led Niannian directly into the palace, it would inevitably bring some unexpected trouble and problems.

Thinking of this, a gentle smile appeared on his face, and he softly said to Niannian:

"Niannian, how about we go change you into a nice outfit first, and then we'll go to the palace together?"

Upon hearing this, a hint of excitement flashed in Niannian's originally bright eyes.

She was so happy that she danced around, clapping her hands and laughing joyfully, "Great! I want to wear pretty new clothes too!"

I've seen those ancient girls' costumes in TV dramas and short videos before, and they were so exquisite. I've always wanted to try it out!

Immediately afterwards, Pei Yunjing took Niannian's little hand and walked together toward the famous clothing shop in the capital—Jinshangtang!

This shop is the premier clothing store in the capital, specializing in making exquisite garments for high-ranking officials and nobles.

As soon as they stepped into the store, the sharp-eyed owner recognized Pei Yunjing at a glance.

He quickly stepped forward with a beaming smile and bowed obsequiously, greeting him obsequiously:

"Oh, isn't this the Sixth Prince? What brings you here today? Please come in, please come in!"

Pei Yunjing nodded slightly to the boss, then pointed to Nian Nian beside him and solemnly instructed:

"Please, find a suitable outfit for this young lady. It should be dignified and elegant, and also conform to court etiquette."

The shop owner, all smiles and bowing, readily agreed and then quickly turned around to carefully select clothes for Niannian.

He was seen moving back and forth in front of rows of clothes racks, carefully searching through the colorful and varied clothes.

His eyes were as sharp as a hawk's, not missing a single corner, carefully searching through those brightly colored and uniquely styled clothes.

Each item I pick up is carefully examined before I decide whether to keep it or put it back.

At this moment, Niannian, who was standing to the side, could no longer contain her joy; her big, watery eyes widened, like two crystal-clear gems, sparkling with excitement.

She was like a cheerful little rabbit, hopping and skipping as if she were stepping on soft clouds rather than solid ground.

Niannian's gaze was firmly drawn to the mountain of colorful clothes in front of her.

Some of these garments are embroidered with exquisite floral and bird patterns, while others are inlaid with dazzling sequins, making them a feast for the eyes.

She picked up the pink dress, her eyes instantly lighting up, her face breaking into a joyful smile, and she excitedly shouted:

"Wow, this pink one is absolutely gorgeous! If I could wear it, I'd definitely look as beautiful as the heroines in TV dramas!!"

The shop owner, standing to the side, was startled by the sudden shout and, momentarily at a loss, asked with a puzzled look:

"Miss, what TV series are you talking about? This old man has never heard of it before."

At this moment, Pei Yunjing, who had been standing quietly to the side, smiled and explained:

"Boss, the so-called TV series are actually similar to the storybooks we usually read, only the stories are presented in a more vivid and engaging way."

After hearing this explanation, the shopkeeper nodded in sudden understanding and said, "Oh, I see! Thank you for clearing up my confusion, Sixth Prince!"

Niannian put down the skirt she was holding and picked up another light blue long dress, exclaiming in amazement:

"Oh my, this one is nice too! It looks both elegant and refreshing, it's so hard for me to choose!"

And so, Niannian picked and chose among the many beautiful clothes, unable to decide which one would be the most suitable.

She was almost overwhelmed by the choices. Some of the clothes were bright and dazzling, like the sunset, while others were simple and elegant, like the morning mist in the mountains. Each piece had its own unique charm.

Just as Nian Nian was hesitating, Pei Yun Jing, who had been silently by her side, quietly offered his advice:

“I think this light pink dress suits you very well, Niannian.” As he spoke, he reached out and picked out the dress from among the many clothes.

Niannian looked in the direction Pei Yunjing was pointing and was immediately drawn to the dress.

It was a light pink long dress, the hem of which was as light and flowing as layers of flower petals.

It is also embroidered with exquisite patterns, including delicate flowers and fluttering butterflies...

The embroidery is so lifelike that the whole dress looks both childlike innocence and cuteness, and also exudes a dignified and elegant temperament.

Niannian happily accepted the dress and couldn't wait to run to the fitting room to change into it.

When she came out again, everyone's eyes lit up – at that moment, Nian Nian looked like a little princess who had traveled from ancient times!

She turned gracefully, admiring her reflection in the mirror as she wore her new clothes, a radiant smile blooming on her rosy cheeks.

A warm feeling welled up in Pei Yunjing's heart, and he couldn't help but sigh:

"Nian Nian, this dress looks beautiful!"

After changing his clothes, Pei Yunjing smiled and took Nian Nian's little hand, and together they headed towards the palace.

They soon arrived at the palace gate, and Pei Yunjing, in the carriage, calmly showed the guards the token in his hand.

Upon seeing this, the guards immediately bowed respectfully and then swiftly opened the palace gates to let them pass.

Upon entering the palace, Niannian was like a little bird that had just flown out of its cage, feeling incredibly curious about everything around her.

She looked around excitedly, glancing at the magnificent palace buildings and the exquisite garden landscapes, occasionally letting out exclamations of amazement.

Finally, they arrived at the inner courtyard of the palace.

Pei Yunjing led Niannian to a small garden, a quiet and secluded place where he had arranged to meet Xiao Ba.

Looking at the beautiful garden before her, Niannian couldn't help but cheer. She ran over, gently touched the petals, and felt the beauty of nature.

Just then, a figure floated over from the other end of the garden; it was Hachiko.

Upon seeing Pei Yunjing and Niannian, he immediately flew over and exclaimed excitedly, "Master~ I missed you so much!"

As it spoke, it buried its head in Niannian's arms and rubbed against her repeatedly.
