Little Sister Lu wore a simple white dress and commanded her trusted aide to present the wedding gift. Opening it in front of everyone, it turned out to be a jade plaque symbolizing the auspicious union of dragon and phoenix, a gift of significant meaning.
Old Master Gong was very polite to Little Sister Lu, akin to treating her as the "Imperial Envoy." "Miss Lu, please convey my thanks to Her Majesty the Queen on my behalf."
"Her Majesty the Queen is busy with her duties and truly cannot spare the time. She specifically sent me to apologize to Old Gong and to offer blessings of a harmonious union and wishes for everything to be well." Little Sister Lu replied with a genial smile, composed and elegant.
After exchanging a few pleasantries, Old Master Gong invited Little Sister Lu to the table. As the "Imperial Envoy," she earned the qualification to sit at the head table, and coincidentally, she was seated right beside Fu Zhengci.
