Su Qian was not an inexperienced girl. Instead of owing a favor to a fox like Xiao Yan, she might as well make a deal with him.

Xiao Yan smiled faintly. “There is a banquet in the palace tonight. Accompany me to attend it and I will bring you there on the day of the gathering.”

“Deal.” Su Qian was full of anticipation at the thought of getting what she wanted at the gathering. Even her spirits, which had been somewhat downcast, lifted, and a brilliant smile spread across her face.

After laughing for a while, Su Qian realized that something was off.

“Why aren’t you leaving yet?” Su Qian had already achieved her goal, but she realized that Xiao Yan, this scoundrel, was still lingering in her room. “Your Highness, it’s inappropriate for a man and a woman to be alone together.”

“It doesn’t matter. I don’t care how others judge me,” Xiao Yan shrugged it off.

Su Qian was speechless.

She wasn’t concerned about this man’s reputation, alright? Who was the one who said that the Ninth Prince was cold-hearted? This man was clearly a shameless rascal.

“Your Highness doesn’t care, but I do. Qian Rong, please escort our guest!” After saying that, Su Qian turned her head toward the bed.

Qian Rong, who had been standing guard outside the door, strode in. She pushed open the door and bowed to Xiao Yan.”Your Highness, please.”

“Wait a minute.” Xiao Yan didn’t leave immediately. Instead, he came forward and helped Su Qian pull up the blanket. Feeling Su Qian’s body instantly tense up, he couldn’t help but laugh and said. “I’ll come to pick you up to enter the palace tonight.”

Qian Rong was stunned. She only regained her senses after Xiao Yan left the room and hurriedly sent him off.

On the bed, Su Qian’s face was already flushed red with embarrassment and anger, but she had nowhere to vent her anger. In the end, she could only kick the blanket and calm down.

At the same time, in the Imperial Palace, in the Empress Dowager’s bedroom.

“Nanny, what do you think of this dress? Isn’t it too ostentatious?” The Empress Dowager was holding a gown and measuring it in front of a bronze mirror as she asked Nanny Jin with a smile.

“I think it’s pretty good,” Nanny Jin answered honestly.

“No, it’s still too ostentatious. What if Miss Su doesn’t like it?” The Empress Dowager was worried and called out to the palace maids around her, “Come, give me the other dress. Oh right, that red one is nice. I think that Miss Su will definitely like red.”

Nanny Jin stood aside and watched Empress Dowager’s actions with amazement.

She really didn’t know what the Ninth Prince had done to the Empress Dowager, but her attitude towards Miss Su Qian had changed drastically. In order to meet Miss Su Qian today, not only did she hold a palace banquet, but she also spent the entire morning choosing a dress. It was obvious that she truly cared.

However, Nanny Jin could tell from Empress Dowager’s every movement that she was truly delighted, so she was happy and continued to help Empress Dowager choose.

Just as the master and servant finally decided on a red gown, a mournful cry came from outside the door.

“Sob, sob, sob, Queen Mother, you have to seek justice for your daughter!” Princess Xuehua cried as she lay on a stretcher and was carried up by the palace attendants.

“What’s going on? Xuehua, what are you making a fuss about now?” The Empress Dowager looked at Princess Xuehua’s appearance and asked with a frown.

Upon seeing Empress Dowager’s attitude, Princess Xuehua gritted her teeth in frustration.

Ever since she said something bad about Su Qian, Empress Dowager’s attitude towards her was clearly not as warm as usual.

No matter what, she had to use today’s incident to arouse Empress Dowager’s love for her. Princess Xuehua choked up and said, “Queen Mother, it was those two children from Su Qian’s family.. They beat me up!”
