Miao Linglong’s appearance was considered quite unique in the Great Shu Dynasty. Her biological mother was from the Western Regions, and due to her genetic heritage, her features exuded the striking beauty of mixed blood.
With thick eyebrows and large eyes, her nose was not only tall but also slightly upturned.
Despite her family’s simple lifestyle, her clothing was of good quality but far from extravagant, lacking the intricate embroidery that many noble ladies would adorn. Her choices in style were more understated.
The daughters of the rich families who came to attend the Peony Banquet all tried their best to dress up. Even if they could not capture the attention of royalty, catching the eyes of some prestigious young gentlemen would still be considered a success.
However, Miao Linglong was not dressed to impress. Not only were her clothes plainer than Liu Shimei’s, but she also wore very few accessories. A pair of pearl flowers adorned her hair, and a single silver pearl earring hung from each ear.

In the midst of a group of privileged young ladies, at first glance, Miao Linglong’s attire might be mistaken for frugality.
“Miss Miao, you’re too polite,” Liu Shimei never judged people solely based on appearances, but she found Miao Linglong’s dressing style intriguing, hinting at the distinct manners of the Duke An’s household.
Miao Linglong asked her servant girl to place a box of snacks on the table and said, “We’ve never met before, so I feel a little embarrassed coming here unannounced. 1 heard last night that Miss Liu is a disciple of the Ghost Doctor Qi Yang, and I wanted to visit today. My mother has been ailing for years, and despite consulting many doctors, there’s been no improvement. If Miss Liu could take a look, I would be immensely grateful.”
n this way, she offered a box of snacks as a test, partly because of her family’s thrifty tradition, partly to avoid burdening others, and lastly to avoid seeming too calculating.
She looked stingy, but in fact, her EQ was high.
People like Zhang Miaozhen and Miao Linglong, even if Yu Wanqing and Liu Yanner rode horoses, they would not be able to keep up!
Just from this interaction, Liu Shimei started considering her response carefully and smiled gently, “After we return to the city, let’s arrange a suitable time. To understand the illness and its potential cure, 1 must personally meet your mother. I will do my best to help.”
“Thank you in advance, Miss Liu!” Miao Linglong showed her gratitude gracefully, sitting down and bowing in return.
Zhang Miaozhen, seeing the main matter was settled, spoke up, “It was indeed quite dangerous today. Miss Guan has a narrow mind. Thanks to your timely rescue, but you caught a cold in the process…”
She sighed faintly.
Miao Linglong smiled and remarked, “Speaking of which, it’s been a long time since we last met. Not only has Miss Liu turned out to be quite unexpected, but even Duke Dunyu seems different from before.”
When she mentioned her dog, Liu Shimei’s face lit up with a smile.
Zhang Miaozhen added, “In my opinion, he’s not much different. Perhaps, compared to the past, the present King Dun Yu has a fiancee and someone he wants to protect, so he has grown up, that’s all!”

Truly, Miss Zhang, you hit the nail on the head!
Before, Huangfu Lingyao would tolerate being bullied without retaliating, but now that he has a wife, he can’t allow her to suffer alongside him. Besides, Liu Shimei indulges him, encouraging him to stand up for himself, and he has become quite obedient, indeed showing signs of maturity.
“With Miss Guan’s current state, I’m afraid Lord Guan’s career has reached its peak,” Miao Linglong said.
Liu Shimei smiled and replied, “That’s all in the past, nothing more to say. Matters of the court are not something we, as women, can interfere with.”
“You’re right, Eldest Miss Liu. Don’t talk about people’s faults in idle chatter. I was wrong,” Miao Linglong said.
After chatting for a while, Miao Linglong took her leave.
Zhang Miaozhen was staying in the fourth room of the Misty Pavilion, so she was not in a hurry to leave.
After sending Miao Linglong off, she returned to explain to Liu Shimei..
