Yan Xun'er had just returned home with confidence. It was already a little late when she entered the door. She ran to her elder sister's place. Xiaowen was talking to May in the yard.

"I'm back." Yan Xun'er was exhausted and panting very much, "Can you catch up."

"Miss, you're back. Didn't you say that the latest Shin Time? It's been two quarters of an hour."

"sorry."

Xiaowen poured a glass of water and brought it over, "Miss Four, don't worry, the butler has arranged a carriage to wait for you at the back door."

Each of the ladies who went to Zhaixing Tower walked by themselves. Yan Xun'er arrived early. The maid next to Yan Ping'er was already waiting outside the door. When she saw the car and sedan in Yan'er, she immediately met her.

"Miss Four, you're here. Miss Lu's family has arrived. I'll take you to see her."

"good."

Lu Yanrou was practicing dancing on the platform. This was the first time she was begging for a dance.

If it weren't for the fact that King Qi did not participate in the Quege Club, she would have come here every year as the lady of the aristocratic family who is the best at dancing.

The people who danced and played music were in place, but Yan Xun'er was missing. They needed to rehearse before the official opening to ensure the results of the formal performance.

Yan Xun'er was in a complicated mood when she went upstairs. Miss Lu was gentle and gentle. She liked her very much once after seeing her. I wonder if she still remembers herself.

When Yan Xun'er passed by, Lu Yanrou was jumping very much, and two old nannies who were cleaning were talking.

"Miss Lu is so beautiful and charming, and she dances beautifully. If she can win the favor of King Qi tonight, she will definitely change her words and call her queen soon."

"Yes, when the former king was so old, there were several princesses. Our King Qi was really pure and weak."

Although there are many people on the platform, Yan Xun'er has excellent hearing and can hear clearly.

Could it be that Miss Lu suddenly wanted to perform a dance on the moon platform to His Majesty? But His Majesty clearly said it personally and couldn't come.

"Miss Lu, our eldest lady told me to bring the fourth lady to you, and I will go down and hand in the work."

Lu Yanrou stopped and turned around in response, "Miss Yan Si?"

"Just Miss Lu just calls me Xun'er."

"We've seen it in Lu Mansion?"

Yan Xun'er didn't expect that Miss Lu still remembered herself, "Yes, I'll go and send peach blossom cake."

"I thought you worked in the wonton shop. I've been to it several times but haven't seen you."

"Ashan was too busy to come that day, I helped run errands."

"I see."

Lu Yanrou has a wide range of social relationships among the aristocratic ladies. He heard that she was on the platform, and several sisters with good relationships came to find her together.

"Yan Rou, you are so beautiful today."

Yan Xun'er didn't know any of them, so she naturally became the object of neglect. She was tactful and prepared to leave, and went to practice the pipa or make some other preparations. However, Xiaowen, who came with her, was taken down by her elder sister's personal maid. She wanted to ask Miss Lu what she should do, so she stood beside her embarrassedly waiting for them to speak.

"Yan Rou, I heard that King Qi had been to Lu Mansion. Have you ever seen him?"

“See.”

"Brother Lu is the first young talent in the aristocratic family. How does King Qi look like Brother Lu?"

Lu Yanrou smiled: "Of course, I can't compete with the King of Qi."

"You are shy, Yan Rou."

"The Queen and the Queen are the ones who won the hearts of His Majesty on the platform. You are the best among the ladies of the aristocratic family. You all arranged you here, and I believe this queen will be the one who has decided to you."

Lu Yanrou said shyly: "Lan Yi, don't talk nonsense. By the way, let me introduce it. This is Miss Yan Si."

The girl named Lan Yi looked at Yan Xun'er. She was very aura. The black pupil in her big eyes stared at Yan Xun'er and turned around twice, "I know you, you are the little girl who came to Lu's mansion to deliver peach blossom cakes."

"yes."

"There are actually four ladies in the Yan Mansion. I just heard of it before. But how could you do that? Your three sisters were all in the Lu Mansion that day. Didn't you see them?"

Just don't see it.

"Yan Ping'er and I often meet you. She never mentioned you. It seems that you are not getting along well. What are you doing here?"

"Give Miss Lu a happy family."

"Are you very good at playing music?"

“It’s learned now.”

"I only have a dance to the platform tonight. I thought that only Miss Lu had the opportunity to meet King Qi, but I didn't expect there was Miss Yan Si."

"Didn't the King of Qi never come to beg for good luck?"

Li Lanyi couldn't help laughing, "Have you heard that there were ladies from aristocratic families dancing on the platform in the past? If the King of Qi didn't come, would this dance be danced for Lord Yan? But I don't understand why you were asked to play music. Does Lord Yan also want you to enter the palace?"

Yan Xun'er was speechless.

"Lan Yi, stop talking."

"Okay, I won't bother you anymore, let's go first."

"Xun'er, let's rehearse it."

"good."

After the rehearsal, Yan Xun'er went to change the clothes she had to wear during the performance. Because she was not familiar with this place for the first time, she walked around twice before finding a place similar to the kitchen. When people were not paying attention, she took a few pastries in her hands and found a place where no one was in her hand to hide and eat.

"Is it tasty?"

Yan Xun'er was like a child who was caught stealing food, covering her mouth and looking back at the person coming.

"My sister is looking for you. If you are hungry, I will take you to her place to eat."

"I'm not hungry, I just want to taste the taste." Yan Xun'er wiped the food residues beside her mouth, "I'm sorry to lead the way."

Lu Yanrou has a special room, and Yan Xun'er also has one. Although she is a little smaller, she has food and drinks. However, she gets lost after changing clothes and going out to look for it. In order not to cause trouble, she can only find a quiet corner to stay.

Lu Wei'an took Yan Xun'er to find Lu Yanrou. She was very obedient and followed her without saying a word, looking unhappy. He slowed down and stood side by side with Yan Xun'er.

"Miss Yan Si has something to do? Are you nervous about having fun?"

"I'm not nervous, but I heard that Miss Lu is dancing to be the queen, so I feel a little nervous."

"Who among the aristocratic ladies doesn't want to be the queen? Doesn't Miss Yan Si want to?"

"I haven't thought about it." Yan Xun'er told the truth.

She liked the King of Qi very much and boasted that she wanted to be his favorite, but the queen was not something that anyone could be equal. Since ancient times, there were few good stories about the deep love of the emperor and the empress, because most of the queen's positions were the product of political interests, and she could not be equal by just being equal to each other. Lord Lu was a court official, the eldest son was an important position in the army, and the second son took up his post in Wenyuan Pavilion. Lord Lu's father was a great businessman and rich. Lu Yanrou, the only daughter of the Lu family, was influenced by poetry, books, rituals and music since childhood, and was once a beautiful woman, and was a good choice for the queen.

Yan Xun'er saw three sisters and was sitting around with some ladies and chatting. If she hadn't come to accompany Miss Lu, she wouldn't even be able to enter the door, so she would be Miss Yan.

"Miss Yan Si is not..."

"Young Master Lu, just call me Yan Xun'er." Yan Xun'er buried her head and speeded up her pace to prevent her sisters from seeing it. She continued until she turned around, "What did Mr. Lu want to say just now?"

"It's inappropriate to call him a name."

"It's OK, it's right."

"Okay, Yan...Li." Lu Weian seemed to be chanting a very difficult word, and then said with a smile: "As the saying goes, you will get the moon first when you get close to the water, so you don't have to be discouraged."

"Whatever Mr. Lu wants to say, just say it." Yan Xun'er felt that the visitor was not good.

"Although there is only one person in the back, there are countless women who can accompany the emperor. I am comforting you. At the end of the corridor is my sister's room, so I won't send it to you."

Lu Wei'er's gentleness became sinister in Yan Xun'er's eyes. It was not until he disappeared from sight that Yan Xun'er realized that she was sweating when she held her palms.

When Yan Xun'er entered the door, Lu Yanrou was holding the book and reading it at the table.

The table was filled with exquisite and beautiful desserts and teapots, and cigarettes that smelled the same as her body floated out from the cracks of the incense burner, scattering and dispersing.

Lu Yanrou closed the book and smiled and stood up to greet Xun'er, "Xun'er, come in quickly. I heard that you are changing clothes. I asked someone to invite you but I haven't come back for a long time."

Lu Yanrou was too enthusiastic, which made Yan Xun'er a little restrained, "The first time I came here, I can't recognize the road. Is there anything wrong with Miss Lu looking for me? But I had something wrong with playing the pipa just now?"

"I just want to talk to you. The guests can only arrive when it gets dark. We have some more waiting, so let's have something to eat first."

Yan Xun'er sat down and noticed that there was a plate of peach blossom cake on the table. The method of making peach blossom cake is similar, but different people make different patterns. This plate was made by Ashan.

"Ms. Lu really likes eating peach blossom cakes from wonton shops."

"Yes, I haven't eaten it for a while, so I have someone buy it now and try it."

"Thank you Miss Lu."

Yan Xun'er picked up a piece and took a bite. Ashan's craftsmanship was nothing to say. She immediately remembered the bag of fresh shrimps, hoping that time would pass faster...

"Xun'er, why do you give peach blossom cakes to the wonton shop? It's not to make money."

Just now, Li Lanyi said in person that she and her sisters didn’t get along well. After all, the ladies of aristocratic families always gathered together to appreciate flowers, taste tea and chat.

Everyone knows that there are four ladies in the Yan family, and everyone knows that Yan Ping'er never takes her to play.

Didn’t it mean that Lord Yan pampered Miss Four? You wouldn’t have to spend money and have to go out to find something to do.

"I am friends with Ashan. I went home from him that day. He was too busy and I went along the way, so I took it for him. Unexpectedly, I even went to Lu Mansion for a walk."

"Is it the thin and tall man in charge of receiving guests?"

"Yes." Yan Xun'er nodded while eating peach blossom pastry. Seeing Lu Yanrou's expression a little surprised, she realized what she meant and stopped. "Miss Lu, you are often in the boudoir and not in the market. The friends around you are from the same origin as you, so I am different. I like to go out to play at home without much. My friends may not be officials and wealthy businessmen, but they are all very good people."

"Xun'er, don't get me wrong. I don't despise your friends, nor do I disdain to be friends with people in the market. I just think it's amazing. There are opportunities for making friends. I just recite poems with the ladies of the official family, enjoy flowers and drink tea. If I have similar interests and speak in a good manner, I will become friends. I have also been to the wonton shop several times. I have nothing to say with that guy except ordering food and asking the price. You can actually become friends with him."
