Qi Zhaoning hurriedly said, "What the Chen family prepares is the Chen family's business, I haven't agreed yet!"
The women giggled, "Alright, alright, you don't agree. You had better not agree, so others can have a chance. By the way, what's up with Zhaoyun's marriage?"
Qi Zhaoyun was not very interested, "I am not getting married."
While everyone was surprised by her reaction, they suddenly heard the bell of the Ancestor Silkworm Altar ringing, and someone whispered urging, "Hurry up, the grand ceremony is starting, the Empress is about to offer sacrifices to the gods."
Several people hurried to the main hall and stood in their designated positions according to the rules: Concubines in front, titled ladies in the middle, family members of officials at the back, everyone had their place, and they couldn't move around freely.
A few women tiptoed, seeing from afar the Empress dragging her dark cyan train, entering the Hall of the Three Pure Ones surrounded by palace maids.
