My bad father married a princess, my mother divorced me, and I became the group's favorite

Chunxi was deeply moved after hearing what everyone said.

With red eyes, she said: "Madam, Miss, Yuemei, Yuezhu, thank you, thank you for not looking down on Chunxi's clumsiness."

Liu Yunniang patted Chunxi's hand gently, smiled and shook her head, saying: "Okay, how can you be so stupid? In my heart, you are the smartest. Don't say anything more. This mansion is left to you. Let's prepare for tomorrow's banquet. Yuemei, Yuezhu, you come with me first, and we will confirm the arrangements for entering the palace tomorrow."

Yuemei responded and followed Liu Yunniang into the inner room.

Ye Xiaoxiao held Chunxi's hand and gently shook it. Her little body twisted and turned, not to mention how adorable it was. "Sister Chunxi, don't be sad. Wait until mother and I come back, and I'll tell you what the palace looks like, okay?"

Chunxi looked at Ye Xiaoxiao's lovely appearance, and the haze in his heart was swept away.

She smiled and said, "Yes, miss. When the mistress comes back, we will play together."

At this time, Yuemei and Liu Yunniang were carefully checking the Queen's birthday gift.

Yuemei wiped the zither and said, "Madam, the Queen will definitely like your gift."

Liu Yunniang nodded slightly and said, "Well, I hope so."

The next day, just after dawn, Liu Yunniang got up early and began to make careful preparations.

She entered the palace today, and as a first-rank lady, she naturally could not dress casually.

Liu Yunniang was wearing a gorgeous crimson-purple dress made of the finest brocade, which shone with a delicate luster under the light. The collar was embroidered with delicate golden twined flower patterns, which showed her nobility and elegance.

The cuffs were slightly tightened, and the edges were dotted with tiny pearls, which swayed gently with her movements, like twinkling stars.

Her hair was combed into a solemn high bun, with a golden hairpin inlaid with rubies inserted in it. The beads hanging from the hairpin swayed slightly as she walked, making a crisp sound. The earrings were a pair of round South Sea pearls, emitting a soft glow, which made her fair skin look even more delicate.

Around her waist was a belt of the same color, embroidered with exquisite patterns and inlaid with a piece of emerald green jade, which added a touch of bright color to the whole outfit. Her skirt was long and dragged on the ground, like a blooming flower, and every step she took seemed to carry an elegant rhythm.

Ye Xiaoxiao was also woken up early. She was wearing the same dress she wore yesterday, looking like a cute lucky doll.

"Madam, you look so beautiful today." Chunxi exclaimed sincerely.

Liu Yunniang smiled slightly and said, "Okay, stop talking nonsense. Yuemei, are all the things ready?"

Yuemei nodded quickly and said, "Don't worry, Madam. All the necessary items are ready."

Liu Yunniang nodded slightly, then took Ye Xiaoxiao's hand and said, "Xiaoxiao, you must behave well when you enter the palace today, and don't run around."

Ye Xiaoxiao nodded obediently and said, "Don't worry, mother. Xiaoxiao will be very obedient."

Accompanied by Yuemei, the mother and daughter boarded the carriage to the palace. Along the way, Liu Yunniang was nervous and expectant.

When the carriage slowly drove into the palace, Liu Yunniang looked out the window at the magnificent palace and could not help but feel awe in her heart. The palace was decorated with lights and was bustling with people, and there was a festive atmosphere everywhere.

The carriage stopped at the designated place. Yuemei got off first, and then helped Liu Yunniang and Ye Xiaoxiao down.

They didn't arrive early, and many carriages were already parked at the palace gate.

As soon as Liu Yunniang and Ye Xiaoxiao got off the carriage, they attracted the attention of everyone around them. Liu Yunniang was wearing a gorgeous long dress, with the hem of her skirt fluttering in the wind, like a fairy descending to the earth. She had an elegant temperament, a beautiful face, skin as white as snow, eyebrows and eyes as beautiful as paintings, and a faint smile on the corners of her mouth, making people feel like they were bathed in spring breeze. The whole person exuded a noble and elegant atmosphere, like a blooming peony, graceful and magnificent, which made people admire her.

Ye Xiaoxiao wore an emerald green dress with exquisite floral patterns, which made her look very fresh and refined. Her hair was combed into two cute buns, which were dotted with a few small and exquisite flowers, adding a bit of playfulness.

She has curved eyebrows, lively eyes and a bright smile, giving people a lively, cute and innocent feeling that makes people love her.

Everyone cast admiring glances at them. Apart from anything else, the mother and daughter Liu were really good-looking!

Of course, among these admiring gazes, there are also some discordant voices.

"Hmph, he's just relying on his looks. We can't even compare to the imperial edict he got by offering treasures!" A gorgeously dressed noblewoman muttered softly, her eyes full of jealousy. She snorted, turned around and left.

The person next to him heard this, and although he did not agree, a hint of disapproval flashed in his eyes.

Liu Yunniang seemed not to hear the gossip and walked forward with Ye Xiaoxiao calmly.

Yuemei frowned slightly, feeling unfair for the lady and the young lady.

Ye Xiaoxiao quietly raised her head and glanced at the gorgeous woman in front of her who was dressed in gorgeous clothes. She was beautiful, but her mouth was really disgusting. She would remember this person!

Perhaps sensing her daughter's emotions, Liu Yunniang gently squeezed her little hand and said softly, "Xiaoxiao, don't be angry at those irrelevant people."

Ye Xiaoxiao listened to her mother's words and nodded, but no one knew what she was thinking in her heart.

They followed the crowd and slowly walked into the palace. The palace was decorated magnificently, displaying the majesty and luxury of the royal family everywhere.

Following the instructions of the palace maid, Liu Yunniang found her seat and sat down. Ye Xiaoxiao sat next to her, and Yuemei stood behind her.

Ye Xiaoxiao then realized that their seats were not at the back, but there were a few empty seats in the front, which made them particularly conspicuous.

Some of the noble ladies around were talking in low voices, while others were admiring the decorations inside the palace. The atmosphere seemed harmonious, but there were also undercurrents.

It was only then that Ye Xiaoxiao realized that the ancient palace banquets were not really separated by gender. No wonder she always saw the male and female protagonists in TV dramas being plotted against because of attending palace banquets.

At the palace banquets of the Great Wei, courtiers and noble ladies did not always attend the banquet together. Those who attended the palace banquets were generally royal relatives, or courtiers and their families who were highly valued by His Majesty. Although they did not enter the palace together, they were not completely separated.

The Queen's birthday banquet was held in the Hall of Supreme Harmony. The Hall of Supreme Harmony was majestic and magnificent, with exquisite patterns carved on the vermilion pillars and golden glazed tiles shining in the sun. The hall was decorated extremely luxuriously, showing the majesty and wealth of the royal family everywhere.

The court officials were dressed in official uniforms and sat on one side according to their titles and ranks. Some of them looked solemn, as if they were thinking about the affairs of the court; others were smiling and talking quietly with their colleagues.

The ladies from aristocratic families sat on the other side, wearing gorgeous clothes and precious jewelry, showing their elegance and nobility. Most of these ladies were from aristocratic families, and the fabrics they wore were all top-quality. Not to mention the styles of the clothes, the embroidery on them alone was enough to amaze people. Some were embroidered with peonies, some with lotus flowers, and some with mandarin ducks... Each piece was exquisite, like a work of art.

In addition, they wear various gold and silver hairpins on their heads, pearl earrings on their ears, jade necklaces on their necks, jade bracelets and rings on their hands, and sachets and jade pendants around their waists. These accessories are not only made of precious materials, but also finely crafted, and can be said to be priceless.

Ye Xiaoxiao looked around curiously, but secretly sighed in her heart: "The luxury of the ancients is not inferior to that in TV dramas! Look at all these, the fairy-like costumes in TV dramas seem much more plain."
