Chapter 1207 - 116 Sixth Prince (First Update)
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!
Lin Yuan couldn’t help but shake her head. If the grand Imperial Garden was already like this, considering also the fresh flowers needed by the Empresses and Concubines in their palaces, who knew how much Silver it would take to maintain these flowers. No wonder she often heard the royal ladies talking about their flower viewing banquets—it wasn’t just flowers they were appreciating but virtually seeing Silver!
While she was silently shaking her head, Aunt Qi ahead slowed her pace and turned to whisper to Lin Yuan, "Miss Lin, up ahead is the Sixth Prince."
Reminded by Aunt Qi, Lin Yuan noticed a young boy in extravagant clothing slowly approaching.
