The heartbroken voice attracted a woman dressed in royal attire, with an unforgettable exquisite face.
The woman reached out her hand to stop the palace maids and eunuchs who wanted to follow her. Her voice, as gentle as a yellow oriole, said softly, "You guys wait here. I'll go over and see what's going on."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
The palace maids and eunuchs stood there respectfully. The woman took light steps and walked to Li Fengming.
"So you're Prime Minister Li's daughter. Why are you crying alone in this imperial garden?"
Li Fengming looked back at the woman behind her. When she saw that the person was the current emperor's most beloved concubine, Zhong Lihua, she immediately wiped her tears and knelt on the ground.
"Fengming didn't know that the Imperial Concubine had arrived. Please forgive me, Imperial Concubine."
"Silly girl, I know you didn't mean it, please stand up!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Li Fengming stood up straight. Knowing that she must look very embarrassed at this moment, she turned her head away embarrassedly.
Zhong Lihua chuckled and asked, "Can you tell me why you are crying so sadly?"
"It's... it's nothing. It's just that Fengming suddenly remembered some past events and felt sad for a moment. That's why Fengming did something so out of control. Fengming really made the Imperial Concubine laugh at him."
Li Fengming was once the candidate chosen by the Queen Mother for Prince Chen's wife. She guessed that the reason why Li Fengming cried so sadly must be related to Prince Chen and his princess.
Now the whole palace is saying that Prince Chen’s wife is as beautiful as a fairy and no one can compare to her. Now Zhong Lihua wants to see whether this legendary figure is really so stunning?
After slightly straightening her shawl, Zhong Lihua comforted her, "Since it's the past, why not let it go with the wind? Instead of living in the past, Miss Li... I think you should look to the future.
This Hundred Flowers Banquet is an opportunity for you. Seize it well, and you may soon have a completely different life."
Li Fengming had thought the same as Zhong Lihua before, but after seeing Shu Jiaying, her self-confidence was completely shattered.
No matter what, Zhong Lihua was comforting him with kind words. Li Fengming thanked her gratefully, "Fengming will remember the noble concubine's teachings. Fengming will definitely cheer up."
"You're awesome! I love seeing confident girls. Miss Li, please come with me into the banquet hall."
"Yes."
Following Zhong Lihua silently, Li Fengming returned to the banquet hall again.
At this time, more and more people were coming to the banquet hall. Fortunately, the crowd drowned out Yu Chenfeng and Shu Jiaying. Li Fengming felt a little relieved. However, she could not feel comfortable for long. The empress dowager arrived after her and Zhong Lihua.
Following the Queen Mother was the Emperor of Luosuo Kingdom - Yu Jianxuan.
When everyone saw Yu Jianxuan and the Queen Mother's arrival, they all performed the rituals of monarch and subject. In the entire banquet hall, only Yu Chenfeng and Shu Jiaying stood in a corner with neither arrogance nor humility.
He Xinhui did not blame Yu Chenfeng and Shu Jiaying for being impolite. Instead, she and Yu Jianxuan almost forgot to react because of Shu Jiaying's stunning appearance.
He Xinhui smiled unnaturally and called out to Yu Chenfeng, "Prince Chen... I haven't seen you for a long time. You seem to be stronger. Come here and let me see you. I've missed you so much."
