The Green Lotus Festival in Shengjing is livelier than the spring festival New Year, not just attracting the attention of commoners but also frequently visited by the Marquis Mansion and governmental families for prayer offerings.
Prince Wen's Mansion in the southern part of the city was also brightly lit tonight.
Mu Sheng, the current Commandery Prince Wen, inherited his father's title. The Old Prince was as close as brothers with the former Emperor. Seeing the Old Prince's back, the Emperor showed compassion for his former ministers and favored the Prince's Mansion with utmost honor and glory.
The courtyard was utterly silent, illuminated only by the luminous glow of glass wind lanterns. A servant in blue attire was carrying a wooden tray across the courtyard, walking past curtains of pearls and embroidered screens into the inner room.
