Chapter 66: Poor Acting



The nanny lowered her head slightly, looking very cautious, as if she was afraid that Sang Luan would blame her for this.

Sang Luan's eyes darkened slightly. The other person was obviously smiling warmly, but she inexplicably saw a hint of other meaning in that smile.

She collected her thoughts for a moment and looked around calmly.

At some point, the surroundings had become much quieter, with only faint noisy sounds coming from them.

Immediately, Sang Luan raised her eyes slightly and asked, "Where are we going?"

The nanny exclaimed, and patiently explained, "It's like this, Madam. Before the blessing dance begins, you need to wait in the side hall."

Sang Luan continued, "The banquet is about to begin. If we're too far away, we won't be able to get there in time."

"Don't worry, someone will come and remind you later." The nanny smiled. "This is the princess' birthday banquet. The people in the palace will definitely be more cautious than usual. They will definitely not make a mistake like this."

A hint of doubt flashed through Sang Luan's heart, but she didn't show it on her face, and stepped forward.

However, just as she raised her foot, she saw a reckless little maid running out from nowhere and suddenly bumping into Sang Luan, causing Sang Luan to scream in pain.

The little maid was shocked and immediately fell to her knees, trembling uncontrollably and kowtowing repeatedly, "My lord, please spare me, my lord, please spare me, this servant did not mean it."

The nanny glared at her and said, "Which garden girl are you from? How dare you be so ignorant of the rules? Do you know who this is? She is the wife of the Prime Minister. She will pray for the princess later."

Sang Luan felt annoyed for no reason and just waved her hand.

Seeing that the nobleman did not pursue her, the little maidservant stood up tremblingly, glanced at Sang Luan, then lowered her head and walked forward silently.

“Tear…”

Just as Sang Luan took a step, the sound of cloth being torn suddenly came.

Sang Luan couldn't help but look back, only to see that the hurried little maid accidentally stepped on the corner of Sang Luan's clothes in a moment of anxiety. Sang Luan raised her foot and just tore off a small piece.

Today, Sang Luan is wearing a green inner garment and a white outer garment. The corners of the garment are where the two colors meet.

At this moment, the outer shirt had been torn off, revealing only the green clothes underneath, which looked extremely monotonous.

When the little maid saw that she had caused such a big disaster, she straightened up but fell to her knees again with a thud.

Her body couldn't help but tremble, her teeth were chattering, "Your Excellency, your servant, your servant..."

The little maid supported herself on the ground with her hands, looking extremely flustered.

The nanny, who was originally smiling, changed her expression instantly when she saw this scene.

Her eyes turned cold, and she raised her foot and kicked the little maid fiercely, roaring, "You are really blind! How can you walk!"

She gritted her teeth, raised her hands high, and was about to fall.

Sang Luan was quick to grasp Madam's hand and said calmly, "She didn't mean it."

Then, he turned to the little maid kneeling on the ground and said, "Get up."

She turned sideways and looked deeply at Mammy.

The nanny rubbed her hands, glanced at the corner of Sang Luan's clothes, and asked tentatively: "Then what should we do now, Madam?"

She looked ahead, her face anxious, "The princess's banquet will begin soon."

Suddenly, she raised her eyes and said, "By the way, Madam, there is a side room not far away. There is no one there. Why don't you go there and change into some appropriate clothes?"

After hearing this, Sang Luan couldn't help laughing.

This is a familiar routine.

She was not sure just now, but now, she was 100% sure that there was definitely something wrong with the person in front of her.

She suddenly said, "It's okay without changing it."

The nanny screamed, and the next moment, Sang Luan raised her hand and grabbed a corner of the white clothes. After a pause, she tore off another large piece of the clothes.

The nanny was immediately horrified. "Young Madam, you are so confused. This dress is incomplete, and the blessing dance you perform is also incomplete. God will not accept your blessing."

She looked very anxious and could not help stamping her feet. "What should I do?"

Sang Luan was speechless. What kind of nonsense was this?

Then, the nanny turned sideways and looked at Sang Luan, then fell to her knees with a plop. "Young Madam, I beg you, this really won't work. Just listen to me and go change it."

She pointed to a small house not far away and said, "There are intact clothes there. It won't take long. If anything goes wrong here, the princess will sentence me to death, Madam."

Mammy spoke with such sincerity.

If she hadn't caught the calculating look in the other person's eyes, she would have almost believed it.

Sang Luan stepped forward and said, "If I say it's okay, it's fine. The blessing dance is mainly about the dance and the dancer, not the clothes."

She paused and said, "I think if you explain the reason to your master, she will definitely forgive you."

A hint of surprise crossed the nanny's face. She never expected that the other party would not take the bait.

She raised her eyes slightly, but saw that there was no one in front of her.

She was stunned and straightened up. Just as she was about to take a closer look, the next moment, she felt a sudden pain in the back of her head, and then her eyes closed and she fainted on the ground.

Sang Luan clapped her hands. "Your eyes have been sneaky since you appeared. You have no good intentions. And you kept asking me to change my clothes. Your acting is too poor."

After feeling relieved, Sang Luan was in trouble again. She put her hands on her hips and looked around, only to see forks in the road everywhere.

She slowly lowered her hand, a look of confusion crossing her face.

Which road leads to the banquet hall?

Judging by the time, it should be starting soon.

"Luan'er."

Suddenly, a weak voice came from not far away, and this voice fell accurately into Sang Luan's ears.

She paused, turned around suddenly, and sure enough, saw Meng Youning not far away.

At this moment, a group of maids and servants were walking towards them from the other side.

Meng Youning beckoned at her, "Come here quickly."

Sang Luan narrowed her eyelids slightly and walked towards where Meng Youning was.

Meng Youning grabbed Sang Luan's arm, and in a moment they were in a secluded little room.

Sang Luan exhaled heavily, and after a moment's rest, she said hurriedly, "Ningning, you should be more careful recently. I feel like Feng Hengzhi is in danger lately. The matter of the assassin at the last palace banquet has not been completely resolved yet."

She paused, her brows furrowed. "During the Tianxiang Tower attack, the assassin had a wax pill hidden in his hand. Feng Hengzhi suspected it was me, but I don't have it. Besides Feng Hengzhi and Qi Ran, the only people present that day were you and me."

Meng Youning found a random seat and sat down, staring at Sang Luan intently. "Wax pills? What kind of wax pills are they?"
