The Longevity Festival banquet was just like every year, with the sounds of music and dance, various forms of birthday greetings, and songs praising Emperor Chu.
Song Ci sipped her fruit wine lightly, feeling utterly bored.
This kind of state banquet, attending once opens one's eyes, but participating year after year loses its novelty. If she were truly fortunate to return to the modern era, would she scoff at similar banquets, thinking that even the Emperor's birthday banquet was dull?
Thinking about this, Song Ci couldn't help but smile.
The sound of music suddenly stopped; it was a minor state's envoy asking Emperor Chu while offering birthday greetings about the vacant Eastern Palace of Great Qing, and whether there might be good news to bring back to the Inner Territory, celebrating nationwide this year?
Song Ci raised her eyes to look, her interest piqued.
