C41 It Was Not Scary to Have a Knock on the Door!

Lan Qingqian heard that she could go and immediately clapped her hands in joy, “That’s great! Then I’ll go and eat ten bowls of brown sugar ice powder.” She seemed to have thought of something and shook her head in disappointment, “No, Lan Lichen said that I should eat less and not lose the face of the princess.”

She frowned and thought about it seriously, “Well… then I’ll eat eight bowls.” She then counted eight bowls with her hands.

Gu Jun’an saw her actions and couldn’t help but smile.

July 28th, although it was only the afternoon, the Prime Minister’s Estate was already very lively. Wei Lianyi was still helping out in the backyard and told the housekeepers to prepare tea and food.

She saw the maidservant Xiao Rong run quickly with a blushed face to report, “Young mistress, it’s a good thing, a good thing, a big good thing.”

“How can you talk so loudly? If father sees you later, he will scold me!”

Xiao Rong didn’t care about this small matter and immediately pulled her to a secluded place, “This servant will tell you that the prince will be attending the old master’s birthday feast later.”

“What?” Wei Lianyi was shocked and then she was overjoyed.

“Don’t listen to rumors. That day, the prince didn’t say he would come. Furthermore, the prince doesn’t like to attend these gatherings.” He didn’t even give face to the palace, let alone her Prime Minister’s Estate.

Xiao Rong blinked and said excitedly, “This servant heard it from a servant of the Seventh Prince’s. I heard that the Ninth Princess is coming too. She has been complaining to the people in the residence to prepare new clothes for her. The Ninth Princess is young, so the Prince will not let her come alone. She will come with the Prince.”

Wei Lianyi held her hands together and said happily, “Sigh, Xiao Rong, tell me, why is the Prince so willing to show his face?”

Xiao Rong smiled and said, “Why? Isn’t it because of the Eldest Miss? The Eldest Miss almost became the Seventh Princess. If it wasn’t for the war that was about to start, who would the Seventh Prince marry?”

Wei Lianyi also thought so. He was willing to come because he had feelings for her.

While feeling shy, she touched her face and suddenly realized something. She hurriedly ordered, “Quick, go and see if I have any suitable new clothes. The color is not too eye-catching, but the Prince likes cold cyan. Go and look for it.”

Then, she carried her skirt and quickly went to her own yard and started to dress up.

Seeing that the sky was darkening, Gu Jun’an wore a black silk robe with silver embroidery and held a little girl by her side.

The butler had good eyesight. When he saw him, he immediately walked over from the door. “Your Highness, the Wei Clan is honored to have you here. Please come in!” He was stunned for a moment when he saw the little girl next to him. He immediately said, “Please come in, Princess.” He led her to the door and immediately ordered the servant, “Quickly invite the Lady.”

The Wei Clan was the Prime Minister’s Residence. They were considered to be the most powerful people in the court. Apart from the people from the royal family, there was no need for the others to greet them personally. Therefore, they would greet the guests in the residence, and the servants would greet the guests.

It was unknown whether it was a coincidence or a deliberate arrangement, but the first person to come to greet them was actually Wei Lianyi. She wore a doctor’s light blue dress with a lotus leaf embroidered on it. The waist of the dress was embroidered with a lotus flower. Her hair was tied up with a jade hairpin, and she had a faint smile on her face. She seemed to be in love.

She bowed and said, “Greetings, Your Highness!”

Gu Jun’an’s face turned cold when he saw her light blue dress. He couldn’t help but glance at the little girl’s clothes.

They were both light blue, but the material was softer and more expensive. The light blue dress was changing, and the material was made of exquisite snow silk mixed with golden silk. Under the light, it looked like a distant galaxy, and it seemed to have ripples on it.

The top of the dress was embroidered with koi fish in the lotus pond, and her figure was lively. It seemed that she could jump out of her clothes and enter the lake with a light jump. The sleeves and the head were embroidered with round and smooth pearls, which made her look like a princess.
