The next day, Yun Shangshu agreed to let Ling Rong participate in the Embroidery Festival.
The Embroidery Festival was held at the largest restaurant in Silk Town.
Surrounding the spacious competition stage were three-story pavilions, and all available spaces were filled with spectators.
Yun Shangshu, who was quite well-off, rented a private room on the second floor for himself.
Looking down from the balcony, he had a direct view of the participants.
Ling Rong sat in the third seat from the left in the second row, with the embroidery frame she needed in front of her, and next to her, a basket full of golden needles and silver threads.
Each round of the competition had nine contestants, with a total of nine rounds.
Yun Shangshu secretly slipped some silver, ensuring Ling Rong was assigned to the first round, as the embroidery skills of first-round participants were not remarkable.
True masters usually appeared in the final rounds.
