Nan Hua looked at her twin brother. "Luo, make sure you don't mess up."

Nan Luo: "…"

Why did it turn to him being warned by his twin sister?

However, Nan Luo didn't say anything because the carriage was here. This time, he took the carriage with Nan Hua while Feng Ao Si and Feng Ao Kuai ride another carriage. After all, they were not using the large carriage that could fit the four of them.

Sitting in the carriage, Nan Hua looked outside calmly. She didn't really think much of this banquet but before she came here, Mu Yan had warned her once more. She told her that it was very likely that the two Empress Dowagers would make use of this chance to evaluate them all.

She had to stay careful so that she would not be swept in their pace.

Nan Hua had never met with the two empress dowagers before, so she was a bit curious what they looked like to the point that Mu Yan would specifically warned her.

Even when picking the dress, it took Xiao Yun a long time before selecting a light blue dress. It was a rather neutral color but it was still a beautiful brocade dress with flower engravings in white color at the hems. When Nan Hua wore it, her graceful movement made the flower looked alive.

After that, Xiao Yun tied her hair into two buns with braids and added ribbons. It looked cute for such a young child like her.

Those who looked at her would think of her as a lovely young girl.

"There are a lot of carriages today." Nan Luo also peered outside. He sighed. "Princess Yue is sure popular."

Nan Hua shook her head. "They come because it's Imperial Order."

"If it's not Imperial Order, they will not come?" Nan Luo asked once more.

"No."

There were not many people who liked Princess Yue. Also, it was known that Emperor Yang Zhou didn't necessarily like this princess and even wished to restrain her a bit. Since that was the case, who would bother building connection with this good princess?

They were only here to give the Imperial family face.

The carriage without Feng Ao Si and Feng Ao Kuai could be said to be very quiet. Nan Luo might be talkative but he didn't want to annoy Nan Hua. The same couldn't be said if it was Feng Ao Si since he would love to make trouble for the other party.

The carriage was moving ever so slowly.

It took them some time before they arrived at the palace.

"The carriage is not allowed in the inner palace. We have to walk." Nan Luo alighted and then looked at Nan Hua, who was slowly coming down. "It might take some time, so please bear with it, Hua'er."

"Mhm."

For many other noble ladies, it would be difficult for them to walk such a long distance without getting tired. However, Nan Hua didn't have any problem about it. Though, she would have to act.

The problem was… how should she make herself sweat?

It would be hard to make herself sweat when she was not tired at all or feel hot… hmm…

While Nan Hua was thinking about it, Feng Ao Si and Feng Ao Kuai had alighted from their carriages. The four of them walked together towards the Imperial Palace.

"There won't be any adult supervising for you, Hua'er, so you have to be careful," Feng Ao Kuai warned once more. On their side, Feng Ao Si was already 14 years old. While it can be still called as a kid, it was much better than nothing.

The adults didn't come since Old Master Nan was not in good health.

As for the others from Nan Family, they were not close with them and had no intention of asking help from those.

"Mhm, you too."

"Don't worry. I'll watch these two."

Feng Ao Si: "…" just how unreliable was he?

Before long, they reached the inner palace. The servants there quickly went forward to greet them while telling the rules that the ladies have to go to the back while the males might go inside.

They had no other choice but to go their separate ways.

"Even children have to go to their respective gender?" a voice sounded from the side, sounded a bit anxious.

Nan Hua turned her head and saw Concubine Qu stood with Nan Shu Cheng. Behind them were Nan Hou Xiang and Nan Xin. Since Concubine Qu had already become Nan Shu Cheng's Main Wife, she could participate in this kind of event without having to lower her head again like how she was in the past.

However, the rules still stated that she couldn't bring her son to the female's location.

"I'll take care of Hou Xiang." Nan Shu Cheng nudged his wife. "You can just enter with Nan Xin."

Concubine Qu's lips twitched when she heard that. She didn't care in the slightest bit about Nan Xin or anything. What she was worried about was whether her son would be fine or not. She didn't want anything to happen to Nan Hou Xiang.

"Mother, don't worry about me."

"Ah Xiang."

"I'll be fine." Nan Hou Xiang smiled brightly. He was still 9 years old at this time, but the expression on his face showed some kind of maturity. After all, living in such a toxic residence allowed him to see things more than what they were.

Nan Xin was a bit worried coming here without her mother. Seeing the fervent gaze on Concubine Qu's expression, she lowered her head. Her mother had warned her repeatedly not to do anything in the open.

She couldn't make any mistake that could possibly cost her life.

Seeing the scene, Nan Hua lowered her eyes and walked to the backyard. She wanted to know whether those two would try to find trouble for her in such an event.

Of course, if they didn't mind offending Princess Yue, she didn't mind playing with them a bit.
