The golden threads of feathers fell on the front of her clothes. The layers of dress were all pure white and light gold. Only her belt was as red as fire and as exquisite.
Her eyes and tail intentionally had a light gold powder on them, her lips were gorgeous, her earrings were light, and she didn't have much jewelry on her head, which made her seem rather light.
Gu Mingyan got up early to let them dress up, he only saw that he no longer had the appearance of a normal little girl in the copper mirror, instead, he looked more dignified and proper, but the corner of his mouth raised, he looked at the two servants beside him: "There are no girls in the palace, could it be that you guys are males?"
The two maidservants were amused and began to giggle, "Whatever Eldest Miss says is the truth."
Gu Mingyan also started to laugh, he had wanted to pull up the sleeves that were too long, but he heard the two servants behind him say in unison: "Your Highness Seventh Prince."
She turned her head and saw Xiao Qiran entering the house, the two maidservants quickly left.
He just saw that today, on top of Xiao Qiran's clothes, there was a Flood Dragon flying through the clouds. It was just a profound color, but the sleeves were covered in the same shallow gold that was on her body.
"Does it look good?"
Xiao Qiran was stunned when he saw her looking at him.
"Looks good."
Gu Mingyan said honestly. He saw that Xiao Qiran had already gotten close to her and pulled her right wrist.
Xiao Qiran subconsciously retracted his hand, but he still firmly grabbed onto it and helped her put on the bracelet made of red rope. He barely managed to wrap that piece of phoenix feather up, and two small golden bells fell from his hands.
"Before the phoenix feather completely turns into a light gold, there's no need to pluck it."
"Thank you, Your Highness."
Gu Mingyan didn't feel that there was anything wrong with the bracelet on the red rope, but he was slightly relieved.
Furthermore, she did not even care that their clothes were actually a pair. Seeing that she was overjoyed, and that her makeup was exquisite today, Xiao Qiran could not help but remind her: "Do not cause any trouble."
"I won't." Gu Mingyan waved his hand, thinking that with so many people in the palace, could it be that there was really someone who was blind enough to want to cause trouble?
Even if she really wanted to cause trouble, it was not her place.
When Xiao Qiran took her away, Gu Mingyan pushed the carriage for him, making it seem even more intimate.
On this day, one of the reasons was because he wanted to vouch for her, the young miss of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and how she ended up as the star of the calamity. The second was because he pretended to be in love with Xiao Qiran, so as to prevent the other concubines of the imperial harem from having any thoughts of going to his backyard.
It could be said to be a mutually beneficial business deal. Gu Mingyan naturally agreed without hesitation, but he couldn't avoid explaining it to Shuang Hua along the way.
Xiao Qiran saw it and his eyes darkened.
There were many carriages at the entrance of the palace. Many of them had already entered the palace, and it was bustling with noise and excitement.
When Xiao Qiran was helped to sit in the wheelchair, he then followed suit and got off the carriage, and walked to the cart behind Xiao Qiran to take care of himself. On the way, there were palace maids and eunuchs who wanted to do the work for him, but in exchange Gu Mingyan gave a light smile: "No need, Your Highness likes me to do it myself."
Her voice was soft, and her back was straight. Even though she was dressed in luxurious clothing, her steps were still steady, making it impossible to find any mistakes in her steps.
The palace maids and eunuchs did not speak anymore, and Shuang Hua stood to the left and right of them.
Gu Mingyan slightly bent his body, and asked from time to time who the person on the namelist was, but Xiao Qiran laughed at him and said that he couldn't understand the scroll in the scroll, and couldn't recognize his face.
Gu Mingyan immediately covered her cheeks and muttered in dissatisfaction, "How could I recognize such an ugly painting?"
"In that case, I shall remember these few people and will not lose any face in my residence." Xiao Qiran tilted his head and chuckled. The eunuch behind him nearly dropped his chin in shock, but he still had to step back a little more carefully.
"Alright, alright. Since that's the case, tell me a few more of them. I can still remember them." Gu Mingyan let out a light sigh, but there was a hint of seriousness on his brows, as if he was going to remember those officials.
In the end, it was only Gu Mingyan who had his eyes set on them and the few officials who had looked over, so Xiao Qiran didn't say anything.
"You don't even know how to peek?"
"Should I?" Gu Mingyan was at a loss whether to laugh or cry. After chatting for a bit, he bent over and leaned on the wheelchair and whispered into Xiao Qiran's ear. He did not notice the light cough that sounded out from behind him, and only said: "If we speak like this, won't we be listened to by the strong inner strength experts?"
"Unless that person's inner strength is higher than mine."
Xiao Qiran turned her face to the side, but only touched a few strands of ice-cold black hair at the corner of her lips.
Her lips were cold, but Xiao Qiran felt his heart heat up.
On the other hand, Gu Mingyan stopped in his tracks, he did not see the ridiculing gaze of the others, and only saw Fourth Prince Xiao Yiran walking towards him.
They looked at each other, and it was actually Xiao Yiran who looked away and coughed lightly.
"Seventh Brother, I wonder if I can have a word with you." Xiao Yiran looked embarrassed, and was actually a little shy.
Xiao Qiran nodded his head in agreement, and let Wei Bai push him forward while he instructed, "Shuang Hua, watch her properly."
"Yes, Your Highness." How could Shuang Hua miss the actions of the Fourth Prince!
My royal highness hasn't gotten any benefits yet, is there anyone who has already coveted for it?
Gu Mingyan felt that the atmosphere had become a little weird. Since the two Princes had already left, Gu Mingyan said: "Let's go take a look at the Imperial Garden. I have never been there before."
Not daring to jump over, Gu Mingyan smiled lightly as he walked over to Shuang Hua's side. His eyes were sparkling and the corners of his eyes were curved like the moon.
"If the First Miss had returned earlier, there wouldn't be just the three beauties left in the Shengan."
"I would feel embarrassed if Sister Shuang Hua praised me like this."
Gu Mingyan scratched his face in embarrassment and walked shoulder to shoulder with Shuang Hua towards the royal study.
Both of his hands were placed in front of his stomach, his footsteps were light and not big, his head was straight and his body was not crooked, Gu Mingyan had done very well.
It was just that when he was facing Shuang Hua and Xiao Qiran, his faint smile had always deepened a little.
Winter was cold, and even the only flowers in the imperial garden had lost their color.
However, when Gu Mingyan walked to the lakeside, he became even more curious. "These words:" The Imperial Garden's lake water is limpid? "
"Of course it is. However, there is an iron fence in the area. Send someone to check it every day." Shuang Hua introduced her.
And Gu Mingyan was even more shocked at just how big this Shengan palace was!
Logically speaking, there shouldn't be such a large lake in this small imperial garden, much less so many pavilions!
Much older than she had imagined.
Astonished, she only felt a gentle tug at her body.
"Plop —"
Water splashed in all directions. Gu Mingyan slightly narrowed his eyes and hurriedly said. "Someone, come!"
As soon as his voice fell, a few eunuchs jumped into the winter lake.
Shuang Hua pulled Gu Mingyan, who still wanted to step forward, and said in a low voice: "It's Gu Zixi, she just wanted to push you into the water."
Gu Mingyan turned his head in shock, and as expected, he saw Gu Zixi, whose entire body was drenched in sweat, and his eyes dimmed.
There were too many people and they all dared to attack!
