At present, there are still many ladies who have been conferred titles by the Imperial Court, and there are several first-grade noble ladies conferred by Imperial edict.
These ladies naturally must come to meet the Empress. They had been waiting at the palace gate before dawn, queuing up to enter the palace.
Today, Heaven is beautiful: there is no snowfall from the sky, and there is even a smattering of Sunshine showering down. However, the howling cold wind did not abate even slightly; standing for half a day would freeze one stiff as an ice lump.
Because Su Pan'er is with child, all greetings are to be kept brief.
But even so, seeing the black mass of the Imperial Court's conferred ladies kneeling in front of Huayang Palace Gate still left her speechless with amazement.
Could there really be so many?
