Li Xizhou sat quietly in the hall for the entire afternoon and evening, while Li Xianfang applied makeup, shaped her eyebrows, arranged her hair, and applied the many layers of ceremonial attire detailed in the ritual books onto this heir. Pei Ye watched quietly from behind as the woman transformed from the fresh and simple appearance after her bath into the grandeur of the Empire's eldest daughter.
No time for rest, as the hour just passed 1 AM, eunuchs arrived from the main hall to announce, a team of eunuchs and maids came to escort Prince Jinyang to the Purple Heaven Grand Sacrifice.
Today, the entire Shenjing City had no carriages. The bright moon hung high, and Li Xizhou, at the center of the eunuch's procession, headed towards the Zichen Hall, with Pei Ye trailing at the edge. He did not stare at the woman, but his aura was tightly locked on her without any relaxation.
