"Your majesty, your subject's lost her way, which is why she entered by mistake. Your majesty, please forgive me." As Bing Lanyue spoke, she helplessly closed her eyes and lowered her head.

Thinking about it, she had lived for twenty-eight years in her previous life and was the only one who had been taught a lesson by a top student. What did she get taught a lesson like this?

"Lost? "Then what is that mouth on your face used for? Do you know what it is used for?" The emperor coldly snorted, causing others who heard him to shiver. Bing Lanyue's skin tensed up.

"When returning to the emperor, my grandmother had told him to be cautious when she entered the palace, so this subject's daughter didn't dare ask too many questions on the way here. This caused trouble and caused her to beg Your Majesty for forgiveness." Bing Lanyue lowered her eyebrows, her eyes filled with light as she purposely spoke obediently.

"Oh? "So that's how it is. It seems that I have wronged you!" The young emperor's voice carried a trace of displeasure, but his expression was very humble.

But who would dare to accept the Emperor's modesty? Bing Lanyue definitely did not dare to do so, and immediately lowered her head and said, "It is this subject's fault, please punish me, Your Majesty!"

"Whatever. Today is a great day for me and my beloved concubine, and you are her elder sister. I will let bygones be bygones, but …" The emperor suddenly stopped and looked towards Monarch Moli's direction, "Men and women are different, in the future, don't ruin your good name."

Bing Lanyue's heart skipped a beat. Indeed, the person who set the fire that day was the emperor! Otherwise, how could he say these words while kneeling down next to Monarch Moli?

"Yes, this subject understands." Bing Lanyue kowtowed a few more times, and remained on her knees the entire time. The emperor had never called for an exemption, it seemed like he was afraid of Bing Enshan's military might and did not do anything to him.

After roughly two hours, when everything was ready, Bing Lanyue was finally helped up by Qing Qiu and Chun Er. Even when she was punished by her grandmother to kneel in the Ancestral Hall, she wasn't as ruthless as she was now. Bing Lanyue scolded the short-lived Emperor a hundred and twenty times.

Sitting in the resting room specially prepared for them, Bing Lanyue changed into a light and light outfit, then her face also changed. Bing Lanyue just found out that there was still a palace banquet at night and she would not be able to leave until tomorrow.

As Chun Er helped Bing Lanyue prepare the remaining hairpin flowers, she said: "Miss, you should also know that you must be careful in this palace. How many times have I told you this already?

Bing Lanyue sighed, she did not forget to use her hands to thump her knees and look aggrieved: "I did not do it on purpose, if not for that damned firecracker at the entrance, I would not have hit my head on the palanquin!"

Coincidentally, Bing Lanyue's hair was pulled apart in pain, her hand raised to protect his scalp, and just as Chun Er was about to lighten it, her wide sleeves flipped over the rouge on the table, breaking it on the ground.

"Miss, don't even mention an excuse, you're the one who is careless. Please have a long snack!" Chun Er rolled her eyes at Bing Lanyue, as she did not listen to Bing Lanyue's explanation at all. It was similarly Miss Bing Ruolan, but her hair was not messy at all.

At this moment, someone came outside to inform them that the palace banquet was about to begin, and all the young misses were requested to hurry up and attend. Bing Lanyue was unwilling in her heart, she really wanted to find a hole in the ground to hide in, and distance herself from this chaotic world.

When he walked out of the door, Bing Lanyue's legs became unsteady. He tripped on his own skirt and grabbed onto the clothes of the palace maid who was leading the way in front of him. Then, because the bead that was on his head dropped to the ground, he tried to pick it up and accidentally stepped on the palace maid's foot.

Seeing Bing Lanyue causing so much trouble before she even stepped out of the door, Chun Er could only silently sigh.

When she arrived at the pavilion that held the banquet, Bing Lanyue saw two noble women. She silently cursed them in her heart, saying that we should arrive earlier? Why was she the last person to be late? However,, who was sitting next to the emperor in the distance, had a pleased look in her eyes. She deliberately made the palace maids delay Bing Lanyue by an hour in order to let her suffer a loss in front of the empress dowager and the imperial concubines.

"The direct descendant of the General's Estate is even more powerful than the Imperial Concubine Li that was doted on in the past. To think that she was so late." It was unknown who spoke leisurely, but instantly, everyone's gazes concentrated on Bing Lanyue.

Bing Lanyue looked around and silently shook his head, it was indeed a tree that desired peace and quiet, it seemed like if she did not make a move, everyone will think of her as a sick cat!

"Bing Ling, do you know your crime!" Because of the presence of the imperial concubine and the others, everyone was startled to see the emperor address Bing Lanyue by his full name.

"This subject does not know. Please advise me, Your Majesty!" Bing Lanyue knelt on the ground at a slow pace, and raised her eyes to look at the Sovereign King in front of him with an expression that was neither servile nor overbearing.

Her reaction caused everyone to be shocked, as they did not expect Bing Lanyue to actually say that, and they all became worried, as if they were watching a good show.

However, there were some people who understood that Bing Lanyue was still Bing Enshan's direct daughter. As long as she didn't marry the Emperor for a day, they would definitely not do anything to her.

"Do you need This Emperor to tell you that you're late?" The emperor coughed twice, anger evident in his eyes. He was very clear why Bing Lanyue was so arrogant, it was all because of the military power that was in Bing Lanyue's father's hands.

He hated himself for taking so much poison since he was young, and he was also plotted against by others to the point that he almost died. But every time he survived, even a little girl in a pavilion would look down on him for what meaning he had in being a sovereign!

"Bing Ling, do you know when the palace banquet will be held today?" The empress dowager could not bear to watch any longer. If the emperor really went against Bing Lanyue, her status might not even be preserved, so wouldn't the Empress Dowager, who was resting in the Palace of Tzu Ning, be the happiest?

Bing Lanyue raised his head, looked at the empress dowager's majesty, and lowered his head as he replied, "This subject does not know, but a palace maid came to report that it was time, so she did not dare delay any longer and hurriedly saved my life."

"Then do you remember what that palace maid looked like?" The empress dowager wanted to toss the olive branch to Bing Lanyue. Although her expression was solemn, her gaze was extremely gentle.

When Bing Lanyue was smart, she would only sometimes be unwilling to use her brain. At this time, the person who was messing with him had already bullying him to this extent, how could Bing Lanyue not resist, she only opened her mouth and slowly said, "This subject does not remember the appearance of the palace maid, but the fragrance on her body."

"The palace maids use the same rouge, so I'm afraid you won't be able to find it." The empress dowager looked at Bing Lanyue and sighed inwardly. It seemed that this girl would be punished for sure.

"To reply esteemed empress dowager, this subject's daughter's scent is different from the usual one I used on palace maids. I specially made this incense for three days without dispersing. May esteemed Empress Dowager give me some time to find that palace maid." Ice Blue said confidently, her gaze sweeping over everyone in the palace. Sure enough, she saw a woman's face full of panic.

Bing Lanyue's smile carried a hint of confidence as she looked at the empress dowager who sat on the seat of honor.

"Since you said that, I'll give you a chance, but after the banquet." Her Majesty waved her hand, and immediately a female dancer came in to offer a dance.

Bing Lanyue found her own seat and sat down, then looked at the people around him with a profound gaze. Because the banquet was special, the left and right sides of the hall were separated by a man and a woman, yet they were looking at each other from afar.

Seeing that Monarch Moli was looking at him with a worried look, Bing Lanyue smiled and then turned to look at Prince Yi. Prince Yi should be more familiar with the palace than Monarch Moli, so he should ask for his help.

In the distance, Bing Ruolan looked at Lan Yue's very calm appearance, and was worried about whether the palace maids would be discovered.

Halfway through, everyone was busy chasing, so Bing Lanyue took the chance to go to the main hall, and gave Chun Er a piece of paper. She told her to give it to the palace maid beside Prince Yi, and then pretended that nothing had happened and returned to the hall.

The Prince Yi opposite them was drinking wine and smiling at Bing Lanyue. This made all the young ladies here blush and think that the Prince Yi was facing them.

Bing Lanyue did not reveal a single expression. In the blink of an eye, it was the end of the banquet, and the empress dowager had ordered everyone else to rest except Bing Lanyue. Even Chun Er did not leave anything behind, and could only wait outside.

"Bing Ling, now you can find the palace maid that told you the wrong time came. If what you say is true, This Dowager will take it seriously." The empress dowager's eyes held a hint of shrewdness. She could tell at a glance that the empress dowager was someone who had been fighting her way here.

"In reply to the Empress, I believe she will come in by herself!" Bing Lanyue said with certainty, and did not speak after that.

Just as the empress dowager was about to ask, a palace maid walked in from outside with her head lowered. "Esteemed empress dowager, please forgive me. This servant is the palace maid who reported the news to the young lady."

"It's you?" Do you know that the crime of bullying the monarch involves the death of the head!? " The empress dowager looked at the empress with warning in her eyes.

The shrewd empress dowager had noticed that the woman didn't have the slightest smell of incense on her, so she purposefully looked at the palace maid to warn her, but the empress dowager seemed to have steeled her heart to admit it directly.
