A few days later, all three girls were granted the title of princess. The third princess of the third master was granted the title of Princess Qing Le, the fourth princess was granted the title of Princess Qing An, and the third princess of the fifth master was granted the title of Princess Qing Shun.
The Fourth Prince agreed to Lanqin's request, and Lanqin immediately prepared three rooms for them in Changchun Palace. The three new princesses were moved from Chuxiu Palace to Changchun Palace.
Baoqin and Yuxiao led the three princesses on a tour of Changchun Palace to familiarize them with the surroundings.
The three girls were deeply moved as they looked at the boudoir that Lanqin had carefully prepared for them, especially since the room was decorated entirely with the girls' favorite items.
Princess Qing'an spotted a rag doll on the bed and curiously picked it up to admire it. Baoqin walked over and said with a smile, "This was specially prepared for you by Her Majesty. Her Majesty was worried that you would miss your mother when you left home, so she had three of these rag dolls made to keep you company while you sleep."
Princess Qing'an hugged the doll, sniffed it deeply, and said to her sister with delight, "Sister, this doll really seems to smell like Mother..."
Princess Qingyue bowed slightly to Baoqin and said softly, "Thank you for your care, Your Highness. Please convey our sisters' gratitude to Your Highness..." Baoqin had never received such a courtesy from her mistress before, and hurriedly helped Princess Qingyue up, exclaiming, "Your Highness is too kind! You've made me feel unworthy..."
Qingyue glanced at Baoqin and said cautiously, "Judging from your attire, you're not an ordinary palace maid. You seem exceptionally familiar with Changchun Palace and particularly attentive to Her Highness's affairs. Moreover, when Her Highness visited us at Chuxiu Palace last time, you accompanied her. I presume you must be Her Highness's personal maid, so please take good care of her..."
Baoqin was greatly surprised, marveling at Qingyue's keen observation, and said with an embarrassed smile, "Princess, you are truly observant..."
She then explained, "It's not just me who's so close to Her Highness; our Her Highness treats everyone the same. There aren't so many rules and regulations in Changchun Palace. Her Highness has never treated us as servants, so naturally she has no distance from us. Therefore, you don't need to worry. Just settle in comfortably in Changchun Palace..."
The three girls exchanged glances and nodded timidly.
Baoqin knew they wouldn't believe it, so she could only say helplessly, "You'll know in time. Consort Xi is the best person in the world. At least I've never met anyone better than her..."
Baoqin then showed them the clothes and accessories that Lanqin had bestowed upon them. Although they had seen many fine things in the Prince's mansion, most of them were bestowed upon the legitimate daughters, and what ended up in their hands were mostly the leftovers. Besides, the things in the Prince's mansion were naturally not as good as those in the palace. Seeing so many exquisite jewelry and accessories this time, the three girls looked at each other, not daring to touch them.
"Princess, these are all gifts from Her Majesty," Baoqin said to the three new princesses.
Qing Le, Qing An, and Qing Shun were all deeply grateful to Lan Qin for how kind Consort Xi was to them.
During their stay at Changchun Palace, Lanqin personally took care of their daily lives, and those who served them had to report to Lanqin every day. Lanqin gave instructions on everything concerning the three princesses, down to the smallest detail.
The three girls quickly overcame their fear and settled down in Changchun Palace, paying their respects to Lanqin in her bedchamber every day, just like Biechuk. Before long, the three girls finally understood Lanqin's personality, and gradually became less nervous and got along well with her.
