"Miss Hua looks beautiful in this beautiful Hanfu dress," Court Lady Hong complimented Li Hua. She had put on a plain, sky-blue Hanfu dress. The white jade hairpin on her hair bun was the perfect match with the dress.
"Everything seems so expensive," Li Hua said as she looked at the mirror.
"It has to be expensive." The Queen's voice fell into Li Hua's ears, and she promptly stood up. Stepping forward, she bowed before Zhu Liling. This sudden visit of the Queen was unexpected to her.
Zhu Liling lifted Li Hua's chin and smiled at her. "Don't be like a servant anymore, Li Hua," she said and put her hand down, "Li Hua's wedding dress is ready, and the auspicious time is out as well."
Zhu Liling tilted her head slightly when a maidservant came forward with the red wedding dress with golden embroidery over it. Zhu Liling picked it from her hands and forwarded it to Li Hua.
