Chapter 0066: Play

In the main courtyard, the lights were dazzling.

However, tonight's banquet was set up in the garden, since a play was to be staged.

The stage was temporarily constructed and finished yesterday.

The actors were selected from a famous troupe in the Capital, and when Ye Zao arrived, most people had not yet arrived.

She lived close by and her early arrival was expected. Additionally, due to her low status, it was improper for her to arrive late.

Of course, it was not her daytime attire. She wore an ordinary pink banner dress, and because it was evening, she draped a cloak that was neither new nor old over her shoulders.

In her hair, she used sterling silver hairpins that, although simple in design, were exquisitely made, far from what she used to wear.

In Ye Zao's words, it was simple yet exquisite, discreet indeed.

It wasn't long before everyone had arrived.
