In the capital filled with noble officials, there are several families with the surname Bai. Song Ci didn't initially realize which Bai Mansion sent her an invitation until Nanny Gong explained it to her.
The residence of Bai Changming, Deputy Magistrate of Yingtian Mansion, was not well-known initially in this noble-filled capital. However, fortune smiled upon them when they suddenly produced a shining golden opportunity—a Consort Bai from the Prince Zhou Mansion.
And then their status soared.
The Bai family now walks with an air of confidence, brimming with mysterious self-assurance. For the Spring Banquet, families that wouldn't normally send invitations took the bold step to do so, like to Song Ci here.
The Prime Minister's Mansion has a wide circle of connections, and upon inquiry, it was clear that this Spring Banquet was more about showing off than enjoying the flowers. Others would admire the blooms; this family intended to boast.
