""Ah, so this is the jade carver whom the Empress Dowager has praised so highly. This lotus-shaped warm jade overlapping bowl was also carved by you?""

"The imperial concubine and her son were rebuked last time because of the incident involving Xue'er. She clearly remembered Lan Miao, who had been astonishingly beautiful at that time. Now seeing Lan Miao being highly praised again at the Empress Dowager's birthday banquet, alarm bells rang in her heart."

"When she saw Lan Miao in the Changxin Palace at night last time, Lan Miao was in plain makeup and simple clothes, which didn't arouse her vigilance. But this time, in bright clothes, she seemed like a different person. Her looks were so outstanding that she was even more dazzling than the concubines in the palace."

""Your Ladyship, it was indeed carved by this humble subject's wife. I'm afraid it's not good enough.""
