Chapter 288 Model Photos
Soon, a place that was out of place with the palace appeared in front of Yu Zhan. It was sparsely populated, with withered vegetation, and a circle of high walls enclosed the interior, but some dilapidated roofs could be vaguely seen. At first glance, it looked like a cage.
The little girl behind him said in a happy tone,
"I'm home."
The main gate of the cold palace was heavily guarded. The little girl crawled into the bushes on one side of the wall and skillfully found a small hole that was damaged due to disrepair and only wide enough for a child to crawl through.
She sneaked out from here.
"I'm home," the little girl turned and said to Yu Zhan.
"You must stop being so willful in the future, lest your relatives worry."
The little girl said "hmm" and bent down to crawl into the cave. Yu Zhan watched her disappear and turned to leave, but the little girl's voice came from the other side of the wall.
"Thank you."

The cold palace was also very large. Before little Liu Lan reached her own yard, she saw little Zhao standing anxiously at the entrance of the yard from afar. When she saw her come back, little Zhao first hugged her tightly with tears of joy, but then suddenly let go of her and spanked her hard.
"Where have you been? Are you trying to make us die of anxiety?" Xiao Zhao was so angry that she beat her in various ways. Later, Madam Xu, who had gone out to look for her, came back. Madam Xu was also very angry. She did not hit her, but punished her to kneel in the yard for a whole night.
That was the first and only time she left the cold palace in her previous life.
The hole was discovered and repaired by patrolling guards not long after.
She was too young at the time and had forgotten many things. She only remembered the pain in her buttocks and knees, and a kind-hearted eunuch who had completely turned into a blurry shadow.
If it weren't for that eunuch, the consequences of her leaving the cold palace without permission would have been more than just beatings and kneeling.
"Are you too hot?" Zhou Budai looked worriedly at the girl who had been staring at the city wall in a daze. There was no shade here at all, and the sun produced a thin layer of sweat on her forehead.
Zhou Budai's words brought Liu Lan back from her memories. She smiled sheepishly, "I'm not hot, I just remembered some past events."
What memories could ancient architecture remind her of? Zhou Budai wondered.
Zhong Jiangnan asked, "Have you been to the ancient capital before?"
"Yes, I have been here," and I have lived here for 24 years.
Zhou Budai was surprised, he had always thought that this was Liu Lan's first time visiting the ancient capital, because she didn't seem to be familiar with it at all.
The four people walked along the long stone road and turned right into a courtyard. There were rockery, trees and a pond in the courtyard, which was very refreshing.
In the huge courtyard, besides the four of them, there were two other people: a man who was fiddling with photographic equipment, and a woman carrying a makeup bag. Zhong Jiangnan said that the two were the photographer and makeup artist of his company respectively.
After a few people got to know each other, they started working.
The assistant hung a sign outside the yard saying that the venue was rented.
All the way from the capital to the ancient capital, Han Gong Qiuyue's sample clothes had been kept by his assistant and placed in a safe, never out of his sight. He solemnly opened the safe and handed the clothes to Liu Lan.
"Autumn Moon in the Han Palace" is the most expensive piece of Hanfu designed by Zhong Jiangnan. They initially priced it at 388,000 yuan. The golden embroidery of the Zhai bird and the cloud dragon are made of real gold thread. The whole set of clothes also includes twelve hair accessories, three facial accessories, six shoes and other accessories. Each accessory is made of pure gold or white jade.
The door of the house in the courtyard could be opened. The makeup artist and Liu Lan entered one of the rooms. In the room, the makeup artist carefully helped Liu Lan put on the Hanfu. Under the supervision of her assistant, she put various accessories on Liu Lan. It was two hours later when she was fully dressed and made up.
