Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtEvery female guest was dressed meticulously today because they wanted to show off their best forms on such a big occasion, and they were also competing and comparing with each other secretly before the arrival of Mu Mingtang. The imperial concubines were all satisfied in their heart with their own beauty and charm, the Empress was satisfied with her noble status and dignity, and the ladies who came to pay their respects were also satisfied with their beauty today. But, as soon as Mu Mingtang opened the door, all the women’s positive attitudes crumbled.
Who would have thought Princess An would steal limelight from them?
The atmosphere was sluggish for a while, but in the end the Empress regained her senses and said with a smile: “Princess An is really beautiful today. I originally thought that I had already seen all kinds of beauties these years, but Princess An made me think otherwise. No wonder Prince An doesn’t want any other beauties.”
As soon as she spoke, the Empress immediately showed her displeasure. However, Mu Mingtang completely ignored the Empress’s hidden meaning and instead replied, “I dare not take such a generous praise from the Empress. The Empress holds the true beauty and charm of this nation. Compared to the holy light of the Empress I am just a firefly. How can my brilliance compare to the Empress?”
“If you are just a firefly, I am afraid there will be no beauties in the world.” The Empress replied with a smile, “Princess An, don’t stand on formalities. Sit down quickly.”
When Mu Mingtang entered the room just now, everyone except the Empress Dowager and the Empress rose to their feet. Now that the Empress had spoken, the lady who was sitting in the first seat hurriedly backed away and said to Mu Mingtang with a smile: “Princess An, please.”
Mu Mingtang sat down in the seat just vacated by the lady. The others immediately moved one seat back, one after another.
Standing alone was clearly sufficient to draw everyone’s attention, but after sitting down, folds of Mu Mingtang’s long skirt were shining which resembled the river of twinkling stars. The Empress Dowager above and the female guests on each side couldn’t help but stare at her.
A guest finally could not stop herself from asking, “Princess An, your dress is so different. Why haven’t I seen something like this before? I’m unsure of the type of fabric it is made of.”
Hearing the question, Mu Mingtang lowered her head and kept glancing at the long skirt as if she didn’t expect such a question. After pondering for a while, she raised her head and replied softly: “Actually, I don’t know the name of this fabric and haven’t thought about it. Some time ago, the people in the silk village said that they found many golden spiders in the countryside, and the silk they spit out was tough and shiny. But it’s a pity that the golden spiders cannot be reared and are vicious in nature, so spider silk was very limited. In the end, I asked them to mix the spider silk with the regular silk and try to weave a fabric. I didn’t expect the effect to be so good. Later, I told them to mix it with gold and silver thread to make it into a skirt.”
