The Fourth Lady novel Chapter 127

After hearing this news, Hongjia Emperor went ahead and left with Su Yun. Lastly, he even instructed Xuanyuan Yukai and Xuanyuan Yuning to properly look after Su Qingyan and the others in the Imperial Gardens.

"Speaking of which, why did consort-mother agree to come out to the Dragon Gate Banquet?" Xuanyuan Yuning walked up to Xuanyuan Yukai and said with a smile, "I remember, doesn't consort-mother hate attending this kind of banquet the most?"

"I don't know what fourth brother said to consort-mother, but there's nothing better than having consort-mother agreeing to attend the Dragon Gate Banquet. After all, imperial father hasn't seen consort-mother in a really long time."

"Even so, can you guarantee that those consorts and concubines won't come up with any troubles?" Xuanyuan Yuning looked to him and helplessly shrugged, "With the harem, only her Highness, the Empress and consort-mother doesn't compete for favor. Look and see which consort right now hasn't fought to the point of busting their head and letting the blood run. It's a pity, imperial father doesn't keep a single one to heart."

Qingyan stood to the side and listened to their conversation, yet she also kept what they said earlier in mind. The Imperial Noble Consort, Qilian Yuran, agreeing to attend the banquet, could most likely be because of her.

But why did Qilian Yuran wanted to meet her? Could it be that she knew her identity? But this was something impossible.

Could it be because of the [Thousand Beasts and Phoenix] last time?

"Qingyan, what are you thinking about?"

Mu Zhimin and Xuanyuan Yuning called out to Qingyan many times without receiving a response from her. Afterwards, all the way until Luo Yixin waved her hand before her, did she finally come back from her mental journey.

"What's the matter?" Qingyan looked to them and helplessly smiled, "I was just thinking of some things just now."

"Right now, the time is still very early, how about I give you all a twirl around the Imperial Palace?" Xuanyuan Yuning looked to them with an earnest look, "I'll have you know, inside this Imperial Palace, there's lots of fun places."

"Alright! There's nothing to do anyways. It's best to be able to get familiar with the Imperial Palace." Qingyan looked to them with a gentle smile.

At least when the time comes, she won't be unable to find her way out of the Imperial Palace. Although at that time, Murong Jingxuan will be by her side, she can't guarantee that he will always appear anywhere anytime. She touched the flute fastened to her waist.

At least, at this time, she can't have anything happen.

Xuanyuan Yuning brought them inside the Imperial Palace and leisurely began to stroll around. She also explained to them which places were interesting and which places weren't interesting. When those palace maids and eunuchs saw them, they all warmly greeted them. At least they would greet them, giving Xuanyuan Yuning face.

Since the beginning, Qingyan felt a gaze from behind, but when she turned to look, she didn't discover anything. Fengqing was following beside Murong Jingxuan the whole time today. She felt this gaze was a bit familiar.

"Isn't this seventh (older) sister?" When they heard this voice, they all turned to see Xuanyuan Yuxiu with Xuanyuan Yufan standing not far away. And Xuanyuan Yufan's gaze continuously lingered on Su Qingyan.

After Qingyan bowed in greetings to them, she quietly stood to the side. When Xuanyuan Yuning saw Xuanyuan Yuxiu, she spoke in an unconcerning tone, "I brought my friends to tour around the Imperial Palace."

Xuanyuan Yufan stared at Su Qingyan and earnestly nodded at them, "That is of course. Since that's the case, then seventh little sister take them and play around." Xuanyuan Yufan said as he took Xuanyuan Yuxiu with him and left.

"Second brother, you like that girl?" Xuanyuan Yuxiu looked to the figures in the distance and smiled, "If second brother likes, then I can help second brother."
