Shi Liu, Lu Zhen's head maid, saw Lu Zhen return and quickly helped her remove her outer coat, taking down the jewelry from her head to make her more comfortable.
"Miss, did the Empress really take a liking to Miss Lu?"
Shi Liu softly asked Lu Zhen.
Lu Zhen nodded: "It seems like it. The Empress asked me and my sister to come forward for a chat, and she even rewarded us with hairpins."
Lu Zhen carefully placed the hairpin given by Anning into her dressing box.
Shi Liu glanced at it and exclaimed: "Miss, this is the Nine Phoenix Hairpin."
Lu Zhen hadn't actually looked closely at the hairpin Anning had given her; she thought it was similar to Lu Shan's, probably a golden phoenix hairpin, but she hadn't expected the Empress to give her the Nine Phoenix Hairpin.
