Shen Qing normally didn't like to spend time on her appearance, always opting for whatever was simple and comfortable. It was only for grand banquets that she would deliberately spend the better part of a day getting ready.
But now, she wore a bright yellow, wide-sleeved top with a peony pattern, paired with a sapphire-blue skirt embroidered with the Eight Auspicious Treasures. A jade belt cinched her waist, and she was draped in a sheer outer robe the same color as her skirt. The entire ensemble made her look both dignified and gracefully elegant.
Her face was adorned with exquisite and radiant makeup. The jeweled hairpins and ornaments in her hair seemed complex, yet each piece complemented the others perfectly. They enhanced her noble and magnificent aura, making her seem to shimmer with a captivating light just by standing there, drawing everyone's gaze.
