What Do You Think This Place Is?

The invitation handed over by Hua Qianqian was surprisingly amber-colored, with azure-white deer paper enclosed inside, adorned with peony illustrations, exuding a delicate floral fragrance.

Before the eunuch had a chance to speak, Yi Wan exclaimed, “This is not an invitation to the Plum Blossom Banquet. Don’t let them deceive you!”

The Plum Blossom Banquet was organized by Queen Dowager to select consorts for the imperial princes.

How could someone like Hua Qianqian receive an invitation?

“Your audacity knows no bounds!”

Lady Yi also exclaimed in astonishment.

“You dare to use counterfeit invitations to enter the garden! This is a grave offense against the Emperor!”

The steward inspecting the invitation in his hands, looked uncertain and asked, “Where did you get this invitation?”

Upon hearing the question, Hua Qianqian exchanged a glance with Old Lady Li, the old lady who had raised her.
