After hearing Hongzhou's idea, Lanqin smiled slightly, surprised that he had such thoughts, and nodded in tacit agreement. She then suggested, "Since I invited these young ladies to admire the flowers, why don't we just disguise ourselves as gardeners? Wouldn't that make it easier to get close to them..."

Hongzhou suddenly realized what was happening. After thanking Lanqin, he went to the backyard to change into a gardener's outfit and came to Lanqin.

"Your Majesty, what do you think? Does no one recognize me in this outfit?" Hongzhou proudly showed off his attire to Lanqin.

Lanqin's eyes lit up. Although Hongzhou had changed out of his gold silk and satin and into coarse cloth clothes, it did not hide his royal and noble temperament at all. Instead, he looked quite like a poor but noble young master.

Yu Xiao blurted out, "I really don't know what the Fifth Prince was thinking. He's clearly a high and mighty prince, yet he insists on dressing up as a gardener. How can he possibly win the favor of the beauties..."

Lanqin smiled without speaking, while Hongzhou laughed and said, "It's precisely because of my identity that I deliberately concealed it. Everyone knows I'm the Fifth Prince, so naturally they try their best to show me their best side. But I only want to find a sincere and kind confidant, and only when they are unaware of my identity can I observe who is the most suitable person for me..."

Lanqin nodded in satisfaction and smiled, "Hongzhou is right. Since it's a blind date, I hope you can find someone you truly love. Of all the beautiful women in the world, I only want one. I'm quite relieved that Hongzhou thinks this way..."

Yu Xiao pouted and whispered to Bao Qin, "But in my opinion, even if the Fifth Prince changes his clothes, he still can't hide his noble air. A little observation reveals that he is no ordinary person..."

Lanqin agreed with Yuxiao's words and smiled with slight pride. After all, he was her son, and Lanqin was quite pleased with herself...

Just then, a servant came to report: "Your Majesty, Princess Gulun has sent word that all the young ladies from the capital have arrived at the Princess's residence and request that the Fifth Prince accompany her..."

Lanqin hurriedly said, "Oh, then we won't delay any longer. Hongzhou, you should hurry to the princess's residence... don't keep everyone waiting..."

Hongzhou was startled, suddenly feeling a little nervous. He turned to leave, but Baoqin exclaimed "Ah!" and stopped him, shoving a potted plant into Hongzhou's arms. Hongzhou was taken aback...

Lanqin jokingly said helplessly, "You're a gardener now, do you still think you're the Fifth Prince?"

Hongzhou said "Oh," then suddenly realized what he meant, scratched his head, and said awkwardly, "Your Majesty, Hongzhou takes his leave..."

Lanqin smiled as she watched Hongzhou leave with the flowers, and sighed with deep emotion, "I hope he can foresee the person destined for him!"

Hongzhou mingled with a group of gardeners who were moving flowers and headed towards the back garden.

When Hongzhou arrived at the back garden, he saw a dozen beautiful young women sitting in a pavilion in the center of the garden. They were a sight to behold.

Hongzhou walked past the pavilion while hiding in the crowd. Wuxiha recognized Hongzhou's face at a glance, was slightly startled, and immediately understood. He chuckled and coughed a few times on purpose.

"Halt!" Ushiha shouted to the gardeners, "Go and bring out all the precious flower varieties from the princess's residence and arrange them neatly. I, the princess, will take the young ladies to admire them..."

The gardeners received their orders and began to act on their own. Hongzhou stood there blankly, not knowing what to do. He looked around in a daze, then lowered his head and followed the others away.

Ushiha laughed, then invited the girls to go admire the flowers together, and after leaving the pavilion...
