Bai Fengyao felt like she was in an extremely cold place.
She looked at Xiao Xian, feeling aggrieved and unwilling.
Qu Li had his own plans, and said in a calm voice: "Since you are here, stay!"
Xiao Xian's eyes were full of surprise.
She had just been accusing him of favoring his concubine over his wife, so why was he keeping her here now?
Meeting Xiao Xian's inquiring eyes, Qu Li raised the end of his eyebrows indifferently, and without giving him a good look, he chose an inconspicuous place to sit down.
Bai Fengyao gritted her teeth. Qu Li was clearly humiliating her on purpose!
Whether she leaves or not, she is the one who loses face!
So she decided to fight for favor to the end and stuck to Xiao Xian almost every step of the way.
A few people murmured.
"It was said before that Prince Chen was deeply in love with Bai Fengyao, and was even willing to risk the wrath of the world for her! Why does it seem that this is not the case to me?"
"Yes! Rumors in the world are always biased! I think Qu Li is actually very beautiful, and her aura is no less impressive than Li Ran back then!"
When they found that Qu Li was looking at them with a smile, they quickly shut their mouths.
Qu Li felt that the birthday banquets of ancient times were really boring. Apart from gathering together to gossip or eat and drink, they were extremely boring.
As she walked towards the back garden, she heard someone whispering something behind the rockery.
"Ruo Wei, why are you still wearing a veil?"
"I don't know what's going on. Ever since Bai Fengyao got married, my face has been extremely itchy. I've seen many doctors, but there's been no improvement!"
"Could it be Bai Fengyao?"
"That shouldn't happen, right? She's already married to Prince Chen. Even though she's a concubine, my mother never treated her harshly. She probably wouldn't attack me!"
“You can know a person’s face but not his heart!”
Qu Li raised his eyebrows.
Could the person behind the rockery be Bai Fengyao’s elder sister Bai Ruowei?
Others don’t know how vicious Bai Fengyao is in her heart, but she has experienced it.
As the saying goes, the enemy of my enemy is my friend. Qu Li curled up the corners of his mouth and made a deliberate sound.
"who?"
A figure flashed out quickly.
When she saw Qu Li, there was a hint of doubt in the girl's eyes.
"Sister, who are you?"
Qu Li looked at the girl calmly. She didn't seem to be the daughter of an ordinary official.
"Qu Li!"
The girl's eyes widened in disbelief, and her originally cute round face puffed up like a hamster because of extreme surprise.
"Are you really Qu Li? The Qu Li who used to want to paint all the colors on her face and dress like a ghost?"
Qu Li's eyes twitched twice.
The original owner's previous aesthetic taste was indeed hard to describe.
But saying it so directly in front of her is a bit too much, isn't it?
Bai Ruowei, wearing a veil, walked out from behind the rockery, her head lowered because of her inferiority complex.
"Princess Chen, please don't tell anyone your secret."
She suppressed her emotions, her voice choked with sobs.
Qu Li glanced at her forehead, which was red with pustules.
"Qu Li, how did you become so beautiful?" The girl wished she could stick to Qu Li's face.
Qu Li smiled and replied, "I recently got a recipe for beauty and skin care."
The girl's big eyes sparkled, and she held Qu Li's hand tighter and tighter with excitement.
"All women in the world are sisters! Sharing happiness is worse than enjoying it alone!"
Qu Li: ? ?
"This is the first time I've heard of someone asking for something in such a unique way!"
Even though Qu Li scolded her, the girl still did not show any displeasure on her face.
"Here!" Qu Li took out two porcelain bottles from the space.
The girl couldn't wait to unplug it, sniffed it, and said coldly, "You're kidding me! Isn't this just water?"
"Believe it if you want, and forget it if you don't!"
Although this girl is quirky, she is quite to Qu Li's liking. However, if they don't believe in her, she can't force them to believe her, right?
The girl was about to return the two porcelain bottles to Qu Li, but Bai Ruowei reached out and grabbed her arm.
"Changle!"
Changle pouted, "All for you!"
Bai Ruowei bowed to Qu Li and thanked him.
Qu Li smiled and nodded, then turned and left.
Changle was a little annoyed: "Ruowei, she must be teasing you on purpose! This is just ordinary water."
Bai Ruowei looked at the two porcelain bottles in her hands excitedly.
"Changle, I'm already like this, it can't possibly get any worse! Besides, there's no need for Princess Chen to tease me on purpose!"
Changle pursed his lips, thought for a moment, and then grabbed her hand: "Come with me to my room first."
"good!"
When all the guests arrived, the eldest princess appeared in the garden, surrounded by her maids and maids.
Everyone came together to pay their respects to the Grand Princess.
The eldest princess is the elder sister of the current emperor. It is said that when she was young, she was one of the four beauties famous in the capital.
When the envoys from Southern Qi deliberately made things difficult for Da Gan, she stood up and single-handedly defeated the envoys from Southern Qi.
After the emperor ascended the throne, the court was unstable, and she was the one who ran around, making plans for the emperor and helping him become a wise ruler.
Qu Li looked at the peerless princess from afar, her heart full of admiration.
"I'm very happy that you all are here today! I've never been one to enjoy being bound by constraints, so everyone must eat and drink well today!"
Xiao Qi led the applause: "It is said that the chef in my aunt's Grand Princess's residence is the best chef in the world. This time, my nephew must eat to his heart's content!"
The eldest princess glared at him, her eyes full of love: "You naughty monkey!"
"Aunt~~"
