The Destiny of Love in Ancient Times
Princess Lailan

Qing Mao visited the palace after afternoon arrived. His arrival left the palace guards confused. They could not believe that he was Qing Mao who used to be infatuated with Gu Yihao.

Since they did not believe it, the death-free token was immediately shown. The guards immediately turned pale-faced. After all who was so brave would imitate the token given by the emperor.

One of the guards immediately went to report this to Princess Lailan. Currently, the princess is painting with watercolor media. Still the view of the backyard that is in the brush stroke.

When the palace guards reported Qing Mao's arrival, he was stunned. Princess Lailan was seventeen years old, two years older than Qing Mao. The empress was already trying to match him up with some good men. Including from neighboring countries.

It's just that the girl doesn't want it. He's not married yet. So, just spending his bored days in the palace. She immediately kept her brush and got up from sitting, smoothing out a goose-white skirt with a cute little finix bird motif.

“Qing Mao? Are you sure it's him?” the question is a little strange.

It had been a long time since Qing Mao had seen him. At least since being rejected by the eleventh elder brother, Gu Yihao.

The palace guard who reported this quickly clarified the death-free token. And Princess Lailan immediately went to the courtyard to confirm it herself.

Qing Mao was still outside the gate while holding onto her beloved white horse rope. After all, the horse had been inside the space of the green jade ring ever since he came. Then Hyou took it out to play.

But he did not expect that the horse was so obedient and able to understand human speech. It might sound crazy enough, but it could be said if the space of the green jade ring contained a little spiritual energy.

After waiting for a while, Princess Lailan finally appeared with light makeup. His facial features already show signs of a mature teenager. His height has also increased a little.

Apparently, Princess Lailan had been fine all along. When the princess saw him, such a happy smile was seen. He quickly ran over and hugged her.

“Mao Mao, it's been a long time since you came. I thought you were mad at me,” he said softly. “You haven't been to any event for the past four years. Are you okay?”

Princess Lailan released a hug and watched Qing Mao well. This girl was still thin enough to take care of herself all this time. She was always worried if Qing Mao did something wrong so often invited her over.

But Princess Lailan knew, the girl was struck and hurt by Gu Yihao's words. He was also angry at his brother.

And when he held a party or the imperial palace had an event, Qing Mao never came. Some noble girls always gossiped about her badly, saying if Qing Mao was shy and did not have the face to meet a person.

Gu Yihao himself was indifferent to this matter. So, Princess Lailan intervened to defend Qing Mao. It was not uncommon to shoot Nu Qingge. Then the queen said nothing. For her, the princess always got her happiness.

Now Qing Mao came shortly after Nu Qingge was caught with the crown prince. And Gu Yihao suffered a huge fall. This girl should be happy with that damn guy.

Princess Lailan had always cared about Qing Mao. They have been friends since childhood. Broadly speaking, he saw it coming today, was something big.

The two spoke in the backyard gazebo. Soft curtains are attached at each corner of the pole to prevent the air from getting too cold.

So, even though it's winter now, the gazebo is warm. The waiter prepared a fireplace containing special charcoal and was given a small fine fragrance.

Qing Mao politely poured a cup of tea for Princess Lailan. His movements were very kind and ethical, making the princess surprised.

As it turned out, the once careless Qing Mao had now learned so much. He doesn't bother about this little thing. It was rare for Qing Mao to serve him.

“How much did you learn? Rest assured, in a capital like this, there are many great men. If you do not want to marry one of my half-brothers, then I will support you in finding a good man.”

“I just spent all my bored time at home. Not learning to find a husband.” He smiled politely before finally sipping tea.

“You're okay ‘kan?” tanyanya nervous.

“I think because of eleventh brother," guessed it.

But the girl shook her head casually. “No. I don't want to act stupidly after him like I used to. This is enough.”

“I know that the eleventh brother was tricked by Nu Qingge! And now he gets his reply.” Princess lainlan sneered.

“Qing Mao, I support your decision in the future. Even if I get married later, come to seek my help" he added.

“You are very good. But I'm really okay.”

“Did you come just to visit me?”

Seeing that the sky was already getting dark, Princess Lailan still did not see any trace of hurry on Qing Mao's face. He admitted that the girl's temperament had changed.

It even seems to hide a lot of things. Of course, Qing Mao had come not only to visit Princess Lailan, but to witness the excitement as well.

Princess Lailan did not come to the crown prince's engagement ceremony because she felt she hated them.

Especially Nu Qingge, pretending to have a meek face, was so cunning as to fly into a finix.

This cunning of hers seemed to have conspired with the crown prince. Both wanted to destroy Gu Yihao and rule completely.

Before leaving, Qing Mao gave Princess Lailan a few bottles of beauty masks. The princess's face was so tired and had signs of shrinking. But he is still very young. There is only one possibility of this happening, someone poisoning Princess Lailan's food or drink.

He only warned her to be careful with something made in the palace kitchen. The mask serves to detoxify the poison on the face slowly. It should be routinely worn twice a week.

After saying goodbye, Qing Mao allowed the horse to return home early. Let one of his dark guards respond to this. He himself left by using the power of his martial arts, mingling with the surroundings.

From branch to branch, Qing Mao was able to pass through it without making any suspicious sounds. He stands on one of the branches of a shady tree, overlooking the residence of the prime minister of finance, nu.

When that night came, all the guests began to come more crowded. Many of them were nobles and local government officials. Even the emperor gave her a lavish engagement gift.

There was the crown prince and Nu Qingge side by side in the main seat. Both are the main characters tonight. Nu Qingge had a beautiful face, those thin bangs covered her brow line.

Tonight, he had decorated himself very well. Even the crown prince was so hypnotized by her beauty.

Not to mention, pink dresses like peonies bloom in the spring. She is only one year younger than Princess Lailan, but her gestures have been trained to seduce men. No wonder so many noble men crave her to be a wife.

And to this crown prince, Gu Wenlian, looks tall and well-built. His stature was almost the same as Gu Yihao or Gu Huiling.

Qing Mao was in the darkness even sneering. He does not dare to do anything suspicious at this time, because there are many dark guards of the crown prince and also the prime minister of finance are lurking.

As a former member of an ancient mercenary regiment, this matter was so easily seen by him.

Those dark guards might be strong, but they would not be able to withstand the drowsiness from the medicine that was being spread in the air.

These sleeping pills will automatically blend with the air and have no residue. Qing Mao herself had already drunk the antidote, so it was not affected. So did the dark guard he brought.

Then, he saw Gu Huiling's figure in the distance. The right opportunity!
