The three young girls laughed and played for a while and then felt tired. Moreover, it was getting late, so they each dispersed.
Before leaving, Yilan deliberately reminded the other two.
"Don't let my mother know about this. You must keep it a secret for me!"
Yue Er and Chen Weiyu patted their chests to assure.
"Don't worry, we're trustworthy!"
...
From then on.
The County Princess Yilan indeed behaved herself and never mentioned meeting Nan Yunze again.
Every day she read, wrote, and did needlework. When she was bored, she would find Yue Er and Chen Weiyu to chat and drink tea. She even rarely rode horses.
Seeing her daughter becoming more virtuous and gentle, the Imperial Concubine finally sighed with satisfaction.
"Lanlan has indeed grown up!"
Yilan gave a faint smile.
"I've made mother worry in the past, which was wrong of me. From now on, I'll listen to you and won't run around anymore!"
The Imperial Concubine excitedly took her daughter's hand.
"Exactly!"
