As April approaches, it is the perfect time for flowers to bloom, especially in the imperial garden of the palace.
That would be a beautiful sight with hundreds of flowers blooming and competing for beauty.
Liu Wuyou originally wanted to dress up and attend the flower viewing banquet. After all, it was her first time to go out and meet other women from official families in Guangling City, including a lot of ladies and young ladies.
If she dressed up nicely, it would bring honor to the Liu family.
However, Madam Liu objected and asked her to dress more simply. Now she was wearing even simpler clothes than when she was at home.
The reason is very simple. Madam Liu doesn't want Liu Wuyou to be summoned by the Queen to attend a similar banquet next time, so she has to appear weaker this time so that she can use her health as an excuse to not attend in the future.
Madam Liu also arranged a play for Liu Wuyou, asking her to pretend to faint halfway through the banquet, and then Madam Liu would hurriedly take her away.
"Wuyou, if you don't want to talk when we go in later, don't say anything. Mother will handle it." Before entering the imperial garden, Madam Liu gently advised Liu Wuyou.
Liu Wuyou smiled and nodded. She was indeed not a socialite and did not like to deal with unfamiliar people with a fake smile.
-
The imperial garden is not only filled with flowers, but also with women who are more beautiful than the flowers. Each woman is dressed more dazzlingly than the flowers.
This actually made Liu Wuyou, who was wearing a plain dress, the most eye-catching one.
She thought to herself that it was a bad idea. She had wanted to be a green leaf, but now she was being set off by the red flowers.
Madam Liu specially put makeup on Liu Wuyou today, just to make her look more haggard, making Liu Wuyou look like a weak willow swaying in the wind.
It really is a little white flower swaying in the wind.
Liu Zhaoyuan is now in the limelight in the court because the emperor transferred some of the power that originally belonged to the left and right prime ministers to the Dali Temple a year ago, which was equivalent to transferring it to Liu Zhaoyuan.
The emperor was punishing the deposed prince. He also said it was only temporary, but no one knew how long it would last.
Therefore, all the ministers in the court were very fawning and trying to please Liu Zhaoyuan.
Therefore, Mrs. Liu naturally became the moon among the stars among this group of ladies and young ladies.
As soon as she appeared with Liu Wuyou, people immediately surrounded her.
"Madam Liu, this must be Miss Wuyou, right? She is indeed as stunning as you were in your youth."
"This is my first time meeting Miss Wuyou. She's about the same age as my daughter. You two should chat more together later. Only young ladies have things to talk about."
…
Liu Wuyou felt a little headache and she began to regret it.
It turns out that a place with so many women is not an easy place to stay. She really overestimated herself and underestimated the occasion.
Madam Liu immediately noticed Liu Wuyou's discomfort and said to her:
"Wuyou, you can't catch a cold in the wind. Go sit in the pavilion over there. I'll chat with the ladies here."
"Okay." Liu Wuyou responded softly and left the crowd accompanied by Yinhua.
Fortunately, no one who was tactless followed.
After leaving the crowd, Liu Wuyou quickly found her breathing easier. She felt dizzy and suffocated when facing so many women just now.
She sat down in the pavilion. There was no one else in the pavilion because they had just arrived and were still chatting and greeting each other.
"Miss, Madam asked me to come over and introduce to you who these ladies and young ladies belong to." Yinling also came to the pavilion.
Liu Wuyou nodded, and under Yinling's guidance, he remembered the identities of these old and young beauties one by one.
She then discovered that she was the only child.
Others often get together with a few young ladies...
