The one who was looking at Shen Miao was Shen Yue. Shen Yue, Yi Pei Lan, Bai Wei and Jiang Xiao Xuan were sitting together and their eyes were staring at her. Even though they were far apart, Shen Miao could still taste the resentment in Shen Yue's eyes.
Shen Yue was wearing a smoky pink pleated dress and had her hair combed into a crown. She was now eighteen years old and had a delicate and refined appearance, but her looks were pleasing. But Shen Miao's eyes paused on the bracelet on her wrist and glanced at the agate silver hairpin on her head before her lips hooked up.
With Shen Yue's love of being in the limelight and fear of missing every opportunity to show herself, she was still using jewelry from two years ago. This could only mean that the current Third household's money was not that loose. Thinking about it, Old Shen Furen was extravagant in spending money and after separating from the family, there was no Shen Xin's support, thus Chen Rou Qiu's family must be very difficult. In addition to Shen Wan's official career, the amount of money that Shen Yue could control would be a lot less.
No matter how noble one was from a scholarly family, one still had to live. Without money, how could one be tough? Actually with Shen Yue's good looks, it was not difficult to marry an official's Young Master. As such, she could more or less help Shen Wan but Shen Yue did not talk about marriage until now. In her previous lifetime, Shen Miao did not understand and even foolishly wanted to find some young talents for her. It was only later that she saw that Shen Yue's heart was big and how could ordinary young talents enter her eyes?
Shen Yue stared straight at Shen Miao and her heart was filled with boundless jealousy and hatred. She could clearly see that the material of Shen Miao's clothes was only available in the Palace. Previously when Shen Wan did a good job, she was lucky enough to get a bolt of it. She originally wanted to keep it to make clothes but who knew that Shen Wan gave it to his superior. In the past two years, Shen Wan's official position was getting higher and higher but Shen Yue's money was not as easy as before. Shen Yue attributed all this to Shen Xin who took away most of the money after the separation, causing her to be in such a tight situation. She originally thought that Shen Miao had rolled to a desolate place like the Xiao Chun City and would not have a chance to return in this lifetime. Who knew that not only did Shen Miao return, she also returned in such a glamorous manner. Those gentlemen would frequently look at Shen Miao's side. Shen Yue's heart was filled with unwillingness and jealousy, and could not wait for Shen Miao to die.
No matter how sharp her gaze was, Shen Miao only smiled faintly and turned her head to talk to Luo Tan and Feng An Ning but did not look at Shen Yue.
At this moment, Celestial Empress and Celestial Empress took their seats. The original commotion gradually subsided as Emperor Wen Hui smiled and instructed everyone to be happy with the mountains and rivers and enjoy themselves to the fullest.
Following that, on the VIP seats, the Crown Prince of the Qin, HuangFu Hao and Princess Ming An also sat down. Princess Ming An directly ignored the etiquette of the Palace and was very arrogant, and did not even greet Emperor Wen Hui. Emperor Wen Hui's smile was somewhat stiff, but it was HuangFu Hao who had a very respectful appearance.
Luo Tan looked around and when Feng An Ning saw it, she asked, "What are you looking at?"
"I am looking at why that Prince Rui of the Great Liang is not here yet." Luo Tan said, "Is it not said that the people of the Great Liang's Imperial family are all incomparably beautiful, and even Emperor Yong Le was an outstanding beauty. Since Prince Rui is Emperor Yong Le's younger blood brother, naturally he would have boundless elegance. I also want to see this shocking beauty."
When Feng An Ning heard it, her lips twitched, "Come on. After that Prince Rui came to the Great Liang, other than His Majesty, he had never appeared in front of outsiders. Moreover even if he appeared today, you would not be able to see his shocking beauty. "
"Why?" Luo Tan was puzzled, "Is he very ugly?"
Before the words were finished, one heard a long and sharp shout from the eunuch outside, "His Highness Prince Rui of the Great Liang has arrived."
Everyone's eyes suddenly looked towards the door.
One saw a slender figure walking in from the outside with the guards following behind and that person walking in front. His figure was extremely tall and he was wearing a purple robe embroidered with gold threads. As he walked, the purple and gold robe flowed and there was a faint elegance to it. There was a rhinoceros horn belt around his waist, a white jade pendant and deerskin boots. Even if it was an extremely simple attire, it could be compared to the entire court's civil and military officials. However the most attractive thing was not these.
