The fabric is blue, woven with twelve grades of pheasant patterns (one hundred and forty-eight pairs), interspersed with small floral patterns, red collar, cuffs, hem, and skirt, and woven with gold cloud and dragon patterns.
After dressing up neatly, she bids farewell to her parents before getting married.
Su Nan sat in the main seat.

This was the first time the father and daughter had faced each other since their falling out on the day they received the imperial decree.
