Qin Yanran also arrived at the palace entrance under Xu Qings escort.
Xu Qing lifted the curtain and handed her a footstool.
She walked down the stairs slowly.
She was wearing a light purple dress with wide sleeves. The thin veil around her waist was gently tied with a pearl ornament.
Her shoes were inlaid with huge east pearls. They were spotless and extraordinary.
However, the most eye-catching thing was her shark pearl hair accessory.
She was already extraordinary-looking. It was not an exaggeration to say that she was a fairy.
Many beautiful young ladies had already arrived at the palace entrance, but her appearance still suppressed the crowd and attracted everyone’s attention.
During this period of time, the news about the real and fake Duke Protector pushed Qin Yanran, the first daughter of the family, into the limelight.
It would be a lie to say that no one was waiting to see her make a fool of herself. However, before one could laugh, news spread that Qin Jiang was going to fight for military power with Qin Canglan’s son.
On the surface, it was a battle for military power, but it was actually Emperor Jing Xuan’s attitude.
Emperor Jing Xuan did not approve of the Protector Duke who had returned from the commoners.
In this way, Qin Jiang still had a chance to turn things around.
Su Xiaoxiao’s carriage arrived at the palace at about the same time.
Her appearance also attracted everyone’s attention.
The daughters of the capital were thin and beautiful. They had never seen anyone so fat.
Other than that, it was Su Mo.
Su MO was the head of the four young masters in the capital. Countless girls secretly liked him.
“Who’s that?”
A young lady asked.
Her companion whispered, “Coming over with Young Master Su… I’m afraid it’s that young lady from the commoners?”
“The biological granddaughter of the Old Duke?”
“I think so.”
“Why is she here? Is a girl who grew up in the countryside qualified to be a princess’s study companion?”
Everyone whispered.
Qin Yanran didn’t seem to hear everyone’s criticism of Su Xiaoxiao. She walked past the two of them.
Su MO ignored Qin Yanran and did not even look at her.
Qin Yanran clenched her handkerchief.
Su MO said to Su Xiaoxiao, “Go in first. I’ll wait for you outside.” “There’s no need to wait. Who knows how long it will take?”
“It’s fine. I have nothing on anyway.”
Qin Yanran recalled that three years ago, she had also entered the palace to attend Princess Hui An’s flower appreciation banquet.
At that time, she was staying in the Marquis of Zhenbei’s Estate. The Old Marquis asked Su MO to send her into the palace.
He had no intention of disobeying the Old Marquis and sent her to the palace door.
However, he did not ride in the same carriage as her. Instead, he rode beside her.
In the end, he left two guards waiting there and left without looking back.
In Qin Yanran’s impression, Su MO had endless work.
But just now, he actually said… that he was free?
“Then… okay,” Su Xiaoxiao agreed.
Qin Yanran had always felt that Su MO treated her extremely well and was an impeccable and perfect cousin.
Compared to Su Mo’s attitude towards Su Xiaoxiao, she realized that Su MO had only followed his elders’ instructions in the past and fulfilled his responsibilities as a cousin.
There was no need for anyone to instruct to be really good to someone.
Su MO went to the carriage and waited patiently.
The daughters entered the palace under the lead of the eunuchs and palace maids.
There was still a considerable distance from where they were to the Hall of Supreme Harmony. The Internal Affairs Department had arranged sedan chairs.
When the daughters sat in the sedan chair, they would usually reward the eunuchs carrying the sedan chair. Therefore, this was considered a lucrative job.
Everyone fought to carry the sedan chairs. It was Su Xiaoxiao’s turn, but no eunuch went forward.
There was no other reason.
Who could carry such a fat girl?
She also looked like she had no money. If one’s waist was broken, he would not be able to get a single copper coin!
Su Xiaoxiao was isolated on the spot. The daughters covered their faces and snickered.
Su Xiaoxiao didn’t care.
If no one carried the sedan chair, she would leave herself.
She did not feel embarrassed or tired. At the same time, she could enjoy the scenery along the way.
She followed behind the team.
Not far away, a sedan chair made of golden cedar landed in front of a pavilion.
Princess Jing Ning walked down from the sedan chair and casually glanced at the team. She asked, “What’s going on over there?”
The female official at the side said, “Your Highness, those daughters are here to participate in the selection of study companions for the princesses.”
Jing Ning had heard about Emperor Jing Xuan opening a palace school. After all, she was one of the princesses of the right age who needed to enter school. Princess Jing Ning said, “I mean that girl. Why didn’t she take a sedan chair?”
She was dressed simply and did not look like a rich daughter, but she was even less like a palace maid.
Therefore, Jingning judged that she should be one of the so-called study companions.
Jingning was a princess, and there were some things she didn’t understand, but the palace maids and eunuchs knew everything.
After all, only servants understood the twists and turns of servants.
The female official said truthfully, “They most likely saw that the girl was too fat and dressed poorly, so they didn’t want to take on a thankless job.” Princess Jing Ning frowned.
Princess Jingning had been mocked since she was young for her overly mediocre appearance. Seeing the little fat girl suffer like this, she could not help but feel a trace of compassion.
“Call her over…
As she spoke, she paused. “Forget it, go over!”
The young ladies sat in a sedan chair all the way to the side hall.
After getting off the palanquin, as expected, every eunuch carrying the palanquin received a generous reward.
“Eh? Have you seen that fat girl? I just saw her following behind. In the blink of an eye, she’s gone!”
“She didn’t lose her way, did she?”
“How can she lose her way? How stupid is she!”
“The palace is so big. If she lost her way, it’s hard to get back! If we offend a noble…
That was death.
The young ladies discussed again.
Qin Yanran thought that she would become the center of attention, but she didn’t expect everyone to be talking about Su Xiaoxiao.
However, it was not a good thing.
“As expected of those from the countryside. If I were her, I wouldn’t leave without someone carrying my sedan chair. I’ll get someone to call their chief over! Let’s see who dares not to lift it!”
“Who should she call? Can’t you see that she doesn’t even have a maidservant beside her?”
“Miss Qin, no matter what, she’s still a member of your Qin family. Shouldn’t you teach her how to become a daughter of a famous family?”
Qin Yanran said softly, “Miss Wang is right. When we return to the residence,
I’ll teach her the rules.”
A young lady suddenly said, “Stop talking! Princess Jingning is here!”
Everyone turned around and saw a few powerful inner court experts carrying a golden-threaded nanmu sedan chair steadily over.
The sedan chair’s canopy was accompanied by a bright yellow color. This was a color that only the orthodox members of the harem were qualified to use.
Other than the Empress Dowager and the Empress, only the Empress’s Princess Jingning could use it. Even the princes were not allowed to overstep their boundaries.
Everyone hurriedly fell silent and bent down to bow respectfully.
The sedan landed.
The curtain was gently lifted by the female official.
A little fat girl walked out boldly.
All the daughters who bowed to her were speechless..
