The Hua family is a renowned medical family in Xuancheng. The head of the Hua family, Hua Duanlian, was the former head of the Imperial Medical Academy. He later resigned due to health reasons and returned to the Hua family. Now he no longer sees patients and stays at home to grow flowers and plants.

Hua Duanlian has a son and a daughter. The eldest son, Hua Yuhan, has now inherited the family business and runs the Hua Family Pharmacy.

The eldest daughter, Hua Yujie, is incredibly beautiful and has long been the object of pursuit for many young men from prestigious families. Despite being born into such a large family, she is not at all spoiled or willful.

After reviewing Hua Yujie's background in her mind, Qian Youxue found the young beauty in front of her increasingly pleasing to the eye. However, the young beauty clearly had a health problem. The Hua family was a renowned family of doctors, so for her to be in such a state, the young beauty's illness was probably not simple.

"So it's Miss Hua! We're so grateful for your help just now, otherwise, our Miss would have been in trouble." Aunt Liu, who had been watching the spectacle, suddenly walked over with a smile. After speaking, she winked at Qian Yingxue behind her.

Qian Yingxue understood and stepped forward, giving a slight bow: "Qian Yingxue greets Sister Hua."

Hua Yujie returned their smiles, then glanced at Qian Youxue and said gently, "Sister Youxue, Yujie still needs to pay her respects to the Empress Dowager. I'll come to visit you another day."

"Okay!" Qian Youxue liked the little beauty even more when she saw that Hua Yujie ignored the mother and daughter.

Many young ladies and women passed by, and being ignored by Hua Yujie made Aunt Liu feel extremely embarrassed. She tightened her grip on the silk handkerchief, but still maintained a dignified and elegant demeanor: "Young Miss, it's getting late, let's hurry up!"

kindness!

Qian Youxue responded calmly, stealing a glance at Qian Yingxue. Qian Yingxue's face was not as pretty as Aunt Liu's, and she was glaring at her fiercely.

Did you think she was an easy target, someone you could bully and take advantage of?

Keep dreaming!

With a slight smile, she followed Aunt Liu with graceful steps, and entered a large courtyard with a group of ladies and young women.

The courtyard was already filled with the ministers' wives and concubines, a beautiful sight to behold, with women of all shapes and sizes.

However, the Qian family, thanks to Consort Liu's favor, enjoyed a very pleasing position. Their seats were very close to the princes, making the other young ladies from prominent families extremely envious.

As soon as Qian Youxue sat down, she felt someone staring at her. She glanced over casually and found that the person staring at her was none other than Xuan Mingrui, the eldest prince born to Consort Liu.

However, there was an acquaintance sitting next to Xuan Mingrui. Upon seeing this acquaintance, she couldn't help but shiver, and goosebumps almost rose all over her body.

"Which young lady from the Qian family has caught your eye, Your Majesty?" The Fifth Prince, Prince Yi, followed his eldest brother's gaze and glanced at the young ladies of the Qian family with great interest, his eyes landing squarely on Qian Muxue's face.

Qian Muxue looked ahead with haughty disdain, clearly showing no interest in the two. Even so, she still attracted many envious glances.

Qian Yingxue's target today was the Crown Prince, but Qian Yuexue couldn't take her eyes off him. She looked at the First Prince and then at the Fifth Prince, both of whom were so handsome that they made her heart flutter. She was completely disoriented.

When Qian Youxue met the Crown Prince's gaze, a strange feeling welled up inside her. She was certain that this man was not familiar to the original owner of her memory.

She shifted her gaze to the familiar face. She had encountered this very person a few days ago when she entered the palace, and now, hearing the ladies and young women around her discussing him, she realized he was none other than the Empress's fifth son, Prince Yi.

Prince Yi may look elegant, but he's a troublemaker. The day she went to the palace to steal medicine, she happened to see him harassing one of the maids. As luck would have it, she disguised herself as one of them. After stealing the medicine, she was about to leave when this guy intercepted her in the room.

Being intercepted was one thing, but the room was filled with aphrodisiacs. If she hadn't had enough willpower, her purity would have been ruined that day.

Thinking about this guy's hobby, she got goosebumps all over her body and could only look away because she couldn't stand it.

"Your Highness, Your Highness has arrived!"

"Look, King Ze is here too!"

"Your Highness, you are so handsome..."

"Ze Wang is quite a sight to behold!"

The women's screams continued as the other two princes arrived, causing Qian Yingxue, who had been looking on with anticipation, to excitedly stand up.

"Sit down, what kind of behavior is this?" Aunt Liu pulled Qian Yingxue back when she saw her outburst.
