Chapter 535 Grand Welcome (2)
The road was long, but not much noise was made. Towards Dayu's prosperity, Jin Yun received a great understanding from this view, as well as the harshness of their system.
So this is the kingdom that Mo'er resides in!
He couldn't help but smile. Gong Sheng thought that he was admiring the beauty of the palace and had no idea that he was secretly peeping into his daughter.
The palace banquet had already been prepared. After everyone was seated, the grand and complicated orchestra of the court began to play as if the world opened up right at that moment.
The officials have long gathered. They were allowed to bring their family on such a momentous occasion but they can only sit behind the curtains on both sides where an additional two columns of seats have been set up. Other than the empress and the two concubines, none of the womenfolk present are allowed to show their faces, including the princesses. But of course, Gong Yimo was an exception. She was seated between the crown prince and Gong Che, signifying her status.
And now, there are only two people who have yet to arrive. The one who dares make the emperor and the neighboring monarch wait is one, the empress dowager who claimed illness and never dared to appear again.
And, there is also the great princess who once stirred Yuheng into a frenzy before returning to Dayu to have her position officially reinstated—Fenggui Rongji!
For such a formal occasion, she had to wear formal court clothes, and this set was specially tailored for her with twelve layers, the main colors being red and black. That is because the emperor found that these two colors could highlight Gong Yimo's temperament the most!
Just like that day at Wentian Terrace, she wore just a red skirt and a black cross-collar robe, yet she looked much more beautiful than countless other women in the world.
Everyone watched as she approached step by step.
The layers of skirts are like piled-up black waves, each layer lined with a gold edge that highlighted each layer clearly. There were also flowers embroidered in deep and light reds. It was absolutely beautiful.
And, Gong Yimo had her hair decorated in so many headdresses for the first time. A total of seventy-two pure gold pieces decorated her hair, giving her a very domineering look, but Gong Yimo felt bitter. This was truly hard to handle!
It can be said that this is the first time she had ever dressed like this. Gong Jue suddenly felt that this would be perfect when they got married in the future.
With all eyes on her, Gong Yimo walked in with her chin up and chest high.
Each step she took revealed the slightest hint of the jeweled flowers on her embroidered shoes, which was absolutely dazzling under the bright lights.
Just like that, she walked step by step in front of the hall with everyone watching her.
Such elegance and grace were simply enviable to all the women.
