<h4>Chapter 493 Flower Seeing Banquet</h4>


    Nan Hua looked at the bronze mirror. She could see a young girl staring back in her direction with her pitch ck eyes. The hair was braided to the back, forming two lovable bundles at the back. There were braids around the bun and the rest of the long hair flew freely on the back, giving off a graceful and noble image. Flower hairpin was inserted to match Nan Hua''s current age.


    At the same time, Nan Hua wore light makeup that entuated her beauty. She was dressed in long night light blue dress that was neither extravagance nor in. It was simply enough to show her status as Nan Family Main Daughter yet it would not disparage her in the slightest bit.


    "This is enough." Nan Hua didn''t want to attract more attention to her more than necessary.


    "Yes, Miss." Mu Yan nodded obediently.


    Xiao Yun came inside with a pair of light blue shoes. "Miss, this is the matching shoes for you to wear. Would you like something else?"


    "No need."


    Nan Hua was toozy to pick everything by herself, so she usually let Mu Yan and Xiao Yun selected the jewelries she was about to use. It was only during important asion would she selected all of her essories carefully in order to make sure that she would not embarrass her family.


    After wearing everything, Nan Hua held Xiao Yun''s hand and walked outside. She looked at the others who were already prepared. Since it was a Flower Seeing Banquet for women, only Madam Qu and Nan Xin woulde aside from Nan Hua.


    Madam Qu wore dark purple dress and some heavy head essory. It looked morous and vibrant, making her attract attention wherever she went. Though, Xiao Yun wondered more whether Madam Qu would be able to walk properly should she wore those for the entire night…


    It must be heavy.


    Nan Xin was dressed in a bright and remarkable orange dress. It gave off lively and lovable image in front of others, making them smile when they looked at her.


    "Sister." Nan Xin''s eyes shed with jealousy for a moment before a smile appeared on her face. After seeing Nan Hua for the past month continuously, Nan Xin had started to grow immunity against Nan Hua''s beauty. Still, it couldn''t erase the jealousy over how perfect Nan Hua''s face was.


    Nan Hua nced at Nan Xin and nodded.


    Madam Qu snorted and turned around. The two girls were not her real daughters, so she only pretended to be kind in front of them when there were other people around. "We shouldn''t tarry."


    "Yes, Mother," Nan Xin replied sweetly.


    Hearing that, Madam Qu nodded and then walked into the carriage. At the very least, she didn''t mind taking care of Nan Xin from time to time. The young girl was easier to managepared to the rebellious Nan Hua.


    The other two girls went into a different carriage than Madam Qu. Nan Xin looked at Nan Hua and didn''t even bother to look at the other party, pretending that she was looking outside. Given that she had lived in the Capital City for her entire life, what hadn''t she seen?


    But she still pretended to avoid having to talk more with Nan Hua.


    Nan Hua herself couldn''t bother to talk with Nan Xin and looked outside at the splendor outside. The people were all busy with their work. It was the middle of spring and naturally it meant that many nts had started to grow once more. Business was booming.


    Even in the midst of war, a ruler should never forget his people''s prosperity.


    Food was still abundant and only a portion was dedicated solely for the sake of war. If most of them were dedicated for wars, it was obvious that the condition of the citizen wouldn''t be good anymore.


    They would becking in food.


    "Miss, we''ve arrived."


    The carriage stopped and Nan Hua walked out. She looked at the servants around and also the decoration, wondering just how much money was used for this event. Fei Yang Kingdom naturally wouldn''t allocate a lot of money for Empress Dowager Mei even though she was the one who actually held the title of Empress Regent.


    Empress Dowager Yan still existed to stop her from doing whatever she wanted through some means.


    "Don''t go and wander around."


    "Yes, Mother." Nan Xin nodded obediently, acting as if she was truly Madam Qu''s blood rted daughter.


    Madam Qu nodded in satisfaction. She looked at Nan Hua and reminded her once more, but Nan Hua merely nced in her direction and gave a small nod. Feeling annoyed yet helpless, Madam Qu chose not to look in Nan Hua''s direction.


    "Nan Family?" A eunuch walked forward and asked.


    "Yes."


    "Please follow me."


    It didn''t take long for the three of them to reach the hall where the Flower Seeing Event was held. Nan Hua nced at the refurbished hall and blinked her eyes. While there were a lot of potted nts, they were mostly only added inside while the hall didn''t really change that much.


    The event didn''t seem to be that important and only done hastily because of someone''s whim.


    "Nan Family had arrived."


    The eunuch gave the announcement and some people nced in their direction. Their gazes were filled with scrutiny as if they couldn''t wait for the people from Nan Family to make a mistake.


    Madam Qu clenched her fist tighter as she walked forward, acting as if there was nothing wrong.


    Nan Xin was also smiling wlessly, having facing this situation many times. At first, some girls were talking about how her first sister didn''t evene and Nan Xin couldn''t say much and only gave some superficial excuse.


    Behind them, Nan Hua didn''t have any expression on her face. She walked slowly into the main hall, her steps were elegant and steady. The hem didn''t even move as she walked, giving off the sense that the one in front of them was a properdy who knew etiquette well.
