Chapter 470 - 149 Appearance_5
Speaking of which, Hai Tang was so resolute because she desperately wanted to exonerate Xue Fangfei, reveal the true face of Yongning to the world, and vindicate herself and those around her who suffered displacement and insanity due to Yongning. As the root cause of such calamity, Yongning was unforgivable.
She must be punished.
At this moment, the Princess’s Mansion was engulfed in a bustle of lights.
In the winter, the Princess’s Mansion still felt as warm as spring. The fruits on the table included those not in season. Only in the Princess’s Mansion could one afford such lavishness. Even the burning agarwood on the table was a luxury.
Princess Yongning leaned lazily on the couch, wearing a brocade long dress that shimmered under the glow of lamps. This beauty was unique to her, yet mysteriously, a "Wave Pattern" fabric had spread through Yanjing City. It wasn’t as costly as her brocade, and even ordinary wealthy households could afford it, yet it dazzled more brilliantly than her own dresses, leaving everyone astonished.
She always preferred to enjoy her favorites alone, unwilling to share them with the commoners and merchants of Yanjing City who wore the inferior Wave Pattern. But her beloved brocade dresses no longer turned heads as before, causing a trace of gloom in her heart.
Only Mr. Shen could slightly lift her spirits.
"Mr. Shen," she called out, leaning her head gently against Shen Yurong’s shoulder in a completely girlish manner. Those who were familiar with her would be shocked to see Princess Yongning in such a tender and soft posture.
