As the real organizer of the entire puppet show banquet, Su Lijin had a mocking look in her eyes. While she was busy as a madman, the empress dowager was leisurely drinking tea in the palace.
After the formalities were said, the puppet show began.
Puppet show, as the name suggests, is a show where people pull puppets on strings and perform a series of stories.
As the opera music played, the puppets made various movements and expressions on the thin lines, coming alive like miniature people, instantly attracting everyone's attention.
"Good!" Everyone cheered.
Su Lijin couldn't help but stare at it intently: "It really lives up to its reputation, it's really good."

Su Lijin, who was sitting in the back seat, was also surprised. She suddenly looked at Xiao Shengxing and asked, "Can I have some fun too?"
Xiao Shengxing nodded, a smile in his eyes: "Of course, let's go."
Su Lijin smiled happily, quickly stood up and went straight to the backstage.
As soon as she arrived backstage, she ran towards the puppet. When she looked up, she found a royal female opera singer standing there, arranging the puppet.
The performer was arranging the puppets and silk threads very carefully, with a focused expression and a smile on his face.
Su Lijin turned her head inadvertently and paused slightly.
