After the onset of spring, the imperial garden was brimming with vibrant colors.
White were the newly blossomed pear flowers, red were the fully bloomed roses, and light yellow was the winter jasmine.
Dongfang Lianhua, supporting the Empress Dowager, slowly strolled among the flowers.
"Lianhua, I see that you've been looking quite well recently, almost as radiant as when you were a young girl. Your face doesn't have a single wrinkle. Noble Princess Consort Xiao and Princess Consort Guo would feel inferior compared to you."
These past few days, under the care of Feng Bailing and her daughter, the Empress Dowager was in good health.
She scrutinized her companion Dongfang Lianhua closely; her skin was delicate, pink with a hint of red, just like a peeled lychee, truly making this old lady envious.
"Empress Dowager, you are teasing me again. I've merely used some new shades of rouge and lipstick provided by Ah Ling. Ah Ling said they are more suited to my complexion."
