In the banquet, there were many prince and princesses from royal families of other countries as well. The palace was full of beautiful young ladies and gentlemen.
Some people were searching for the perfect partner for their son or daughter. Because it's not only a banquet but also a place where beautiful girls gathered there. And people were searching for their daughter in law to be.
The lavish and grand dinner was arranged for the night.
...
All the consorts of Ji Cheng has already arrived. They cannot be late then the Emperor, so they arrived early.
They were chattering among them, praising the other consort for their dress and accessories but inwardly they were jealous of them and ridiculing them inside.
At that time, the head consort Xiao Li arrived. She was the second wife of Ji Cheng after Zhao Ming. She was the Head of other consorts and report the details to Zhao Ming.
It's what she should do but with Empress Dowgar 's encouragement, she takes all the decisions herself. She thinks that she was the Empress herself.
When Xiao Li makes an entry in the Banquet with her two maids by her side, everyone quieted down staring at her.
She was the example of a pure goddess. She was wearing a sea blue color dress, which was decorated with silver thread and many expensive beads were adorned on the dress.
The color of the dress complimented her milky white skin. Her hair was made in half bun and rest were kept open. Her hair was long and black.
The bun was adorned with beautiful and expensive hairpins. Her slightly pink lips were the most attractive feature of her face. Her eyes, nose, lips everything was perfect.
The young man in the banquet, kept staring at her. She was the most desirable woman in the entire Ji Dynasty but too bad that she married the Emperor.
No one can make a move on her. She was head consort of course.
...
When Xiao Li entered, many people came to greet her and she greeted them back. With her honey tongue, she was known as the well mannered and polite consort among of all.
After slightly greeting them she made her way to the royal sitting area. The three head chairs in the center were for the Emperor, Empress on the right side and Xiao Li on the left of the Emperor.
In the right side of their sitting area, there was a big royal chair for the Empress Dowager.
The head chair was always for the Emperor. And the two head consorts, that is Zhao Ming and Xiao Li will sit beside him on each side.
She didn't sit on her seat because the Emperor hasn't arrived yet. She went to check the arrangements of the Banquet. She was the one who has taken the responsibility of arranging the Banquet.
Zhao Ming was in a coma when this banquet was decided. So she was given the responsibility to make all the necessary arrangements.
As she was talking to the head eunuch about the arrangements, a bunch of consorts came to her, to greet her, praise her and gain favors from her.
They know, if one is close to Xiao Li then they will be in the good books of Empress Dowager
Consort Xie Mei: ” Consort Xiao Li, today you will take the all Limelight here. You're looking the most beautiful in this whole banquet.” she praised her.
She was the sidekick of Xiao Li, always praise her to be on her side. Because she knows that it will benefit her a lot. And Xiao Li also allows her to be by her side, as she was stupid and would do anything that Xiao Li says.
