The height of luxury was unmatched by anything outside the Palace, where the scenery truly couldn't be compared to anywhere else.
Aunt Qi led the way through the Imperial Garden toward Consort Shu's Ronghua Palace. Following behind Aunt Qi, Lin Yuan looked at the garden teeming with flowers in full bloom, flowers that didn't normally blossom during this season, and couldn't help but raise her eyebrows in surprise.
Dong Mei, at her side, smiled and explained, "These flowers are all cultivated by the eunuchs in the greenhouse."
So they were grown in the greenhouse, Lin Yuan realized. Apparently, the eunuchs had planted these flowers in the greenhouse and then moved them daily to the Imperial Garden. This daily replacement allowed the normally barren Imperial Garden to burst with flowers without withering.
Such extravagance!
