Chapter 6
There is a secret in the prime minister's mansion that everyone tacitly knows - the second lady, Xie Lanzhi, is not the prime minister's biological daughter.

She is the daughter adopted by the prime minister and the orphan of a lieutenant under General Xie.

It's a long story, and I'll talk about it later.

Three days later, when Xie Lanting was forced to learn embroidery by Xie Lanzhi, her personal maid Wen Shuang came in and said, "Miss, Ning and Princess are here."

Xie Lanting's hands stopped, and she looked at Wen Shuang in confusion. It took a long time to realize who Ning and the princess were, "Why is she here?"

Wen Shuang pursed her lips and smiled: "I said I came to thank Miss, and wanted to invite Miss out for tea."

Xie Lanting was not interested in drinking tea, but she looked down at the horribly embroidered brocade handkerchief in her hand, and she immediately said seriously, "Why keep the princess waiting so long? I'll go right away."

Xie Lanzhi stretched out her hand speechlessly for a while: "Sister, you haven't learned lotus yet!"

"Study when you have time."

As she spoke, she walked out the door in two or three steps, and disappeared very quickly, as if there was an evil spirit chasing her behind her.

Xie Lanzhi put down the brocade handkerchief in her hand in frustration, and murmured: "Why don't you like embroidery? It's easy to learn!"

She reluctantly picked up the lotus that Xie Lanting had embroidered halfway through. After taking a look, she was so stimulated that it was a bit horrible...

The densely packed needle holes look like they just rolled through a needle board!This is not embroidery, this is clearly practicing acupuncture!
Xie Lanting got rid of the embroidery that made her bald, and went to the main hall refreshed, and immediately saw Qin Mingzhou sitting there with a gentle smile.

Today Qin Mingzhou wore a white tulle dress with a pair of flowers and a butterfly with silver threads. There were thin silver tassels hanging down from the belt, shining brightly in the sun.

It's so beautiful, Xie Lanting thought, and couldn't help but take another look.

Sensing her gaze, Qin Mingzhou got up and walked over, turned around gently, and said with a shy smile, "Do I look good?"

Xie Lanting nodded without hesitation: "It looks good."

Then, Qin Mingzhou smiled even sweeter.

Xie Lanting unconsciously looked away.

Seeing this, Xie He, who was seated at the top, smiled kindly: "The princess wants to invite you to drink tea, then you can go and bring the guards."

Xie Lanting nodded: "My daughter knows."

"Where does your highness want to go?"

When Xie Lanting walked out of the main hall, he turned his head and asked.

Qin Mingzhou was startled: "I just came to the capital, so I don't know which teahouse is better."

After finishing speaking, the two looked at each other, and the atmosphere was suddenly a little awkward.

Xie Lanting... She also just returned to the capital.

So, a quarter of an hour later, the two-person walk turned into a three-person walk.

Xie Lanzhi, a native of Beijing, became their guide.

Xie Lanzhi led the way, and Qin Mingzhou walked behind holding Xie Lanting's hand.

Several times, Xie Lanting wanted to pull her hand back. She grew up in the military camp, and she was really not used to this kind of intimacy with girls.

The arm held by Qin Mingzhou was numb.

After walking for a while, her stiffness was too obvious, Qin Mingzhou smiled understandingly, and let go of her arm, "Is my sister not used to me like this?"

Seeing her soft and weak appearance, Xie Lanting was a little embarrassed to speak directly, hesitatingly said: "No, I—"

"It's okay, sister, don't worry about it. I just like my sister. I can't help it for a while. If my sister is not used to it, then we can walk normally."
