Guanghan Palace's midday banquet was just as Zhao Rong had expected when he arrived.
At the long dining table, only a few people including the Dowager Empress, Zhao Rong, and the young Emperor were seated, spaced far apart, strictly adhering to etiquette.
However, Zhao Rong still had not seen what she looked like, and even this time it was worse than the previous occasion at the spirit hall, where he could see the body figure of the widow above.
This time, she did not even reveal her figure, hiding behind layers of curtains.
Yet, from the Dowager Empress's tone behind the curtains, it seemed she was quite pleasantly surprised and delighted by his proactive visit.
The reason was self-evident.
To avoid suspicion, it wasn't just the three dining, the Dowager Empress also invited Zhang Huizhi and other Confucian Scholars to join.
Thus, Zhao Rong had a rather dull meal at the ceremonious palace banquet.
