Chapter 866 The Truth - Twenty Years Ago 27
Hearing Princess Baiyun say this, the eldest princess felt a little embarrassed.
If Princess Baiyun concealed her identity and deceived her, then wasn't she also concealing her identity and deceiving the other party?
"Let's not dwell on the past, let's go inside!"
After the princess finished speaking, he pulled Princess Baiyun into his boudoir.
Looking at the bed covered with gorgeous clothes, the princess belatedly realized that she hadn't put them away.
"Please excuse my sister's poor appearance!"
The princess hurriedly tried to get the maids to put the clothes away, but she had already dismissed them, so there was no one left following them.
Princess Baiyun showed no amusement at the princess's predicament. Instead, she stepped forward and looked at the magnificent clothes laid out on the bed, exclaiming, "Sister, you truly deserve to be the only daughter of His Majesty the Great Zhou. These clothes are incomparable to anyone else's."
Although Princess Baiyun was also a beloved daughter of the emperor, because the emperor was frugal and not extravagant, she could only get a new set of clothes every year when the seasons changed.
Princess Baiyun's eyes held envy but not jealousy as she gazed at the obviously new clothes, which were truly beautiful.
Looking back, Princess Baiyun noticed the plain-colored dress worn by the eldest princess and instantly understood her thoughts.
"It seems my sister doesn't want a marriage alliance!"
Princess Baiyun understood the eldest princess's thoughts best. She guessed that he dressed like this on purpose so that neither of the two crown princes would look down on him.
Upon hearing Princess Baiyun's words, the eldest princess finally remembered the gentle and refined man.
"Sister Baiyun, since you are a princess of Wei, then who is your brother?"
When the princess asked about that person, her heart pounded involuntarily. She hoped that the person was indeed the Crown Prince of Wei, but she was also worried that she might be wrong and it might not be him.
"Who does your sister think he is?"
Princess Baiyun looked at her and asked in return.
When the eldest princess met Princess Baiyun's gaze, especially her smiling face, she couldn't help but blush.
"Sister, just tell me! How could I possibly guess?"
The eldest princess hesitated for a moment, but ultimately did not reveal the answer in her heart.
Seeing that she was getting anxious, Princess Baiyun said, "My dear sister, then I'll tell you! He is my Crown Prince brother!"
Sure enough, he was the crown prince.
Upon hearing the answer, the princess was instantly overjoyed, and a great weight was lifted from her shoulders.
"Sister, your outfit is too plain. Shall we change into something bright and cheerful?"
Princess Baiyun saw through the eldest princess's thoughts and immediately pointed to a light green embroidered long dress.
Upon hearing this, the princess blushed even more deeply, though the light green dress she wore was indeed much better than the one she was wearing.
"Shall I change into something else?"
Although it was still a question, the eldest princess had already made up her mind.
Princess Baiyun nodded affirmatively. To be honest, he also hoped that the eldest princess could dress better, at least his brother seemed to like it.
"Sister, come and change your clothes with me! Your color is too plain."
Previously, when I saw Princess Baiyun, she was usually wearing a white or light gray long dress.
Despite being an absolute beauty, Princess Baiyun dressed herself up so plainly. The princess decided to give her a makeover.
After the eldest princess finished speaking, she began searching through her pile of clothes for a color that would suit Princess Baiyun.
After picking and choosing, I selected two or three items, and then picked and chose again among those two or three items, finally settling on a light pink lotus root-trimmed long dress.
"This is the one, it suits you perfectly."
After the eldest princess finished speaking, no matter how much Princess Baiyun tried to refuse, she insisted on dragging her to change her clothes.
After a short while, the two changed their clothes and stood in front of the bronze mirror.
"Look, my sister is naturally beautiful. This color makes her skin look even whiter and more elegant."
Princess Baiyun felt embarrassed by his words and immediately turned around to look at the outfit she was wearing.
The princess was beautiful, and even her ordinary clothes couldn't hide her good figure. After this makeover, she was even more charming and beautiful.
The two beauties, one radiant and the other alluring, together made for a truly stunning sight.
"Sister, you are so beautiful! If I were a man, I would definitely beg His Majesty to bestow you upon me in marriage."
Although Princess Baiyun's painting is slightly exaggerated, it reflects her true feelings.
Looking at her own appearance every day, Princess Baiyun suddenly felt that she was not good-looking at all when another kind of extreme charm was presented to her.
"If I were a man, I would also want to marry my sister."
The eldest princess smiled as she spoke, then pulled Princess Baiyun along, saying, "We should go to the banquet now."
The two chatted and laughed all the way, and soon arrived in front of the main hall.
The sound of string and wind instruments came from inside. The princess knew they were late, but this was not the first time she had been late. So, despite the tardiness, the princess walked in without hesitation.
Princess Baiyun followed behind the eldest princess, unsure whether she should call out to her.
In the blink of an eye, Princess Baiyun had already walked five steps away from her, leaving Princess Baiyun no choice but to follow her inside.
The two's sudden intrusion immediately drew the attention of everyone present.
In front of them stood the stunningly beautiful Princess Chang, while behind them was the elegant and refined Princess Baiyun. The stark contrast between their beauty caused everyone present to gasp in astonishment.
"I never imagined that there could be such stunning beauties in this world. They are all truly unique!"
The speaker was none other than the emperor's fourth son, the current fourth prince.
"Fourth brother, please be careful with your words, that's our sister!"
The Third Prince, who was closest to him, frowned upon hearing this.
His gaze fell on the eldest princess, then shifted to Princess Baiyun beside her, and he had to admit that such a sight was indeed rare.
The fourth prince, after being reprimanded by the third prince, glanced back at him and said, "Third brother, there's no need to remind me. I know that Showa is my sister."
He was just making a comment; did he have to put on such a show?
The fourth prince had always disliked the third prince, and after retorting, he immediately looked at Princess Baiyun.
Both are beauties. He can't have any dirty thoughts about his sister, but that Wei princess is coming to marry him. What if he ends up marrying that beauty?
Thinking this, the fourth prince's eyes gleamed with even more eagerness.
Xu Menglong was also staring intently. Ever since he saw Bai Xu today, he had been wondering if the woman who haunted his dreams was Princess Baiyun. So much so that he was constantly distracted when he met the Emperor of Great Zhou.
Now that his guess has been confirmed, Xu Menglong is both delighted and somewhat troubled.
