Chapter 778 - 778 Kill (3)

778 Kill (3)

Shen Miao was a little speechless. Not to mention that Gao Yang’s true identity was a court official of the Daliang Dynasty, even in Ming Qi, he was still an imperial physician. Only Luo Tan would go to him for something as minor as a headache.

…

On the other side, Shen Dongling was dressing up. Today, she was dressed especially plainly, almost without makeup. She was wearing a pine-colored dress.

Xing Hua looked around and said, “Madam, why are you dressed so simply today? Although you’re born beautiful, the more beautiful you look, the more they will respect you.”

“What do you know?” Shen Dongling looked at herself in the mirror. She was born good-looking and had the charm of Concubine Wan. Even dressed simply, she was still more beautiful than most women.

Shen Dongling looked at herself for a moment before pulling off the jade hairpin on her head and changing it into a plain silver hairpin.

Seeing this, Xing Hua wanted to say something but hesitated.

Shen Dongling said, “I’m not the protagonist today. If I dress up too flashily, I’ll steal the limelight. I won’t do such a stupid thing. There are plenty of opportunities to display my beauty.”

When Xing Hua heard this, she said, “Madam, you are beautiful even in this simple outfit.”

Shen Dongling was happy to be praised, but what made her even happier was not Xing Hua’s flattery. Today was the day to make the Crown Prince of the State of Qin fall in love with Shen Miao “at first sight”. She was just a foil. The more inconspicuous she was, the more Shen Miao could stand out.

Wang Bi would also be present. This way, he could constantly remind the crown prince that he had contributed the most to this matter.

Shen Dongling stood up. It was still early before 9. She said, “I will eat with my husband first. After that, we’ll go to Yi Feng Pavilion.”

She did not know that while she was still eating breakfast with Wang Bi, Huangfu Hao had already gone out.

Yi Feng Pavilion was located in a mountain on the outskirts of the capital. That place was built by the late emperor for the late empress. Sitting in the Yi Feng Pavilion, one could see a deep valley. People from rich families often liked to enjoy the incense in the Yi Feng Pavilion.

Although it was already winter, the valley below was covered with snow, looking especially picturesque.

Huangfu Hao looked at the exquisite invitation and smiled. It sounded good to fall in love with the daughter of an official “at first sight” in such a beautiful place. However, it was a pity that he was just helping someone else put on a show.

Huangfu Hao’s guard rushed over and said that the carriage was ready to set off. Only then did Huangfu Hao frown and walk towards the entrance of the mansion. The time for the gathering written on the invitation was 7 in the morning. Huangfu Hao was annoyed that he had to get up this early.
