Speaking of lotus nunnery, this nunnery is very famous in the capital city.

It was said that Cangyue's founding queen met at the Lotus Temple, a legendary affair of love and hate. Because of this relationship, the Lotus Flower Temple's incense had always been at its peak. Master Jing Hui also became the host of Lotus Temple three years ago.

Hua Yufei was moved. ”I know, Grandmother. I will definitely perform well. I won't let Grandmother's painstaking efforts go to waste.”

At this moment, Hua Yuan was seated in a horse carriage as he made his way back to the Du Residence.

Because he had already gone there last time, Hua Yuan was familiar with the route this time. When they arrived at the Du Residence's entrance, Hua Yuan stopped. Bai Qin took the name scroll and said, ”Hello, little brother. We are from Hua Manor. We are here to deliver a gift to Miss Du Qiao. Please pass on it.”

Bai Qin's voice was tender and sweet, giving off a good impression. The young man only glanced in Hua Yuan's direction before answering, ”I'll have to trouble Miss Hua to wait a moment.”

Hua Yuan was wearing a maple leaf red dress today. Her entire person looked extremely alluring as she stood at the entrance of the Du Residence, extremely unsightly to the eyes. There were quite a few people coming and going in front of the Du Residence. Seeing such a beautiful girl, quite a few people stopped to take a look. He was still envious that the children raised by the Shangguan family were different.

Hua Yuan waited for a moment before the young man who had just entered came out. Seeing Hua Yuan, he said, ”Miss Hua, this way please.”

Although this was the Du Residence, because of the good relationship between Prince Consort and the Eldest Princess, the Eldest Princess only treated the Princess' residence as her own manor. The Du Residence was, in fact, her true home. As a result, many of the servants in the Du Residence came from the palace.

All of them knew the extent of the Grand Princess's affection towards the Emperor.

As for Hua Yuan, the Grand Princess welcomed her with open arms. The servants who had always regarded her highly, naturally regarded her with more importance.

After Hua Yuan entered, a servant from the Du Residence led her towards the main building.

Hua Yuan had been there once before, when the Grand Princess had summoned him alone. On the other hand, she was familiar with the road. The moment she arrived, Du Qiao saw her and happily said, ”I've troubled you. I even asked you to personally deliver something.”

Hua Yuan paid her respects to the Grand Princess before saying, ”I also happened to want to meet you, so I sent you a gift.”

”Mm, the garden party is coming up in a few days, you have to prepare for it, Little Iris.” Even though the capital may not be that big, there are still quite a few people who claim that they are talented people of great talent or something of the sort. When the time comes, they will have to drag others along to write poems.

Hua Yuan smiled. Isn't that the case?

In her previous life, how much did Princess Yun Xin's zither music win over? And how could Hua Yufei's poem impress the world? She was still young at the time, so it wasn't a big mistake for her to not shine. However, he was being led by someone. He was actually reduced to being a nobody in the capital!

Hua Yuan nodded her head fiercely, ”It doesn't matter if we make a name for ourselves. The most important thing is that we can't ruin the reputation of the Prime Minister's Mansion.”

The Grand Princess nodded as well.

The purpose of the garden party was to look upon the talents of the various families. Hua Yuan, on the other hand, was still young and had not reached her prime yet. If she were to attend such a banquet, it would be akin to getting to know each other.

”That's right, this is the same kind of scented tea as last time. I heard that you've used quite a bit, Grand Princess. There are still two jars left, so I brought them.”

The Grand Princess did not decline.

Nocturnal cough had always been with her ever since she was born. So many years had passed, and the imperial physicians of the Grand Hospital were helpless against it.

Every night at night, she would cough until her chest hurt and she couldn't sleep. Even she herself could feel that her body was getting worse.

No one knew how much she longed to be able to sleep peacefully at night.
