Soon, her reputation in the capital was ruined.
But Nanqianyue didn't care at all; all she wanted was to go home.
That day, taking advantage of the Prime Minister's wife's absence, she slipped out of the mansion.
Because she wasn't wearing a veil, she was met with stares and scrutiny from the crowd as soon as she stepped out of the carriage.
The people marveled at her beauty, but also despised her character.
"Oh, isn't this that ill-mannered young lady from the Prime Minister's residence?" A sharp, sarcastic voice rang out.
Nanqianyue turned around and glanced at the person who came over.
The maidservant beside her whispered, "This is Song Suihuan, the eldest daughter of the Grand Commandant's family. The one standing next to her is the Princess."
Immediately afterwards, another carriage arrived, and a lively young girl stepped out.
The maidservant added, "This is the Fifth Princess."
"What are you doing here?" the Fifth Princess asked with utter disgust. "Did you come here to seduce the Imperial Uncle? How dare you be so rude! How could someone as vulgar as you be worthy of the Imperial Uncle?"
Nanqianyue looked up at the plaque, which read "Xingtian Auction House" in large characters.

She should leave then; nothing good will come of running into Qin Yi.
"Who are you telling to get lost?" A stern voice, tinged with anger, rang out.
The fifth princess was startled and turned around awkwardly, "Hey, Imperial Uncle."
The princess's eyes lit up, and she quickly bowed, "Royal Uncle."
Song Suihuan's arrogance vanished. "Greetings, Your Highness."
Qin Yi dismounted and ignored them, heading south towards the moon.
He stood in front of her and looked at her carefully for a while.
Suddenly, he turned around and looked at the Fifth Princess coldly, "Say what you just said again."
The Fifth Princess was as arrogant as she had been, and now she was as timid as she said, "Royal...Royal Uncle, I...I was wrong."
Seeing this, the eldest princess stepped forward to explain for her, "Uncle, Xiao Wu is simple-minded. She just joked around with Miss Nan a few times."
"Is that right, Miss Nan?" She looked at Nan Qianyue with a smile, but her eyes held a threat.
