The Fourth Lady

"Thank you, your Highness." Qingyan kowtowed to Qilian Yuran to thank for the great honor.

To be able to become Qilian Yuran's adopted daughter and use this kind of identity to care for her was also acceptable. After all, Qilian Yuran was once her most beloved aunty.

"Since you've already become my adopted daughter, then just directly call me consort-mother." Qilian Yuran said as she still looked to Qingyan with a faint smile.

Qingyan looked into Qilian Yuran's eyes and smilingly spoke, "Consort-mother."

When Hongjia Emperor saw this scene, there was happiness all over his face too, especially under this kind of circumstance. He'd already forgotten how long it's been since he last seen the smile on Qilian Yuran's face.

One year, two year, or even longer?

Today, if she's happy, then just let her be. After all, she'd never walked out from the pain of losing Qilian Qingyan all this time. And now, if this girl can make her happy again, then naturally he would also be happy too.

Qingyan's performance can already be considered as the pinnacle, so it goes without saying that Ning Yuelan's performance afterwards, no one paid any attention to even more so. Not to mention in the end, Ning Yuelan had even attracted a bunch of bees over, stinging her to beyond recognition.

Naturally Jing Marquis loved his granddaughter dearly, but unfortunately under these circumstances, it was already for the best if no one else got hurt.

Xiuran was carefully observing Su Qingyan's performance in the dark the whole time. He was also once fortunate enough to have seen 'Qing Cheng Dance' and [Thousand Beasts and Phoenix] before. But now, seeing it again, it was as if he was in a dream. Right now, he could no longer tell if standing before him was Su Qingyan or that gentle and kind Qilian Qingyan.

He still remembered meeting Qilian Qingyan for the first time that year. At that time, she was still just the Crown Princess. Although she carried on her face a tranquil smile, there was no trace of happiness in her.
