บท 141: A start of something beautiful 3

There were loud gasps from the madams and young ladies present in the hall as Lu Yaozhu hugged Su Liya close and led her towards the Crown Prince's table. There was a brief silence right before the whispering began. Contemptfull gazes and heavy criticism were all aimed at Su Liya. 

It didn't matter that the hug was initiated by Lu Yaozhu at least not to the judgemental madams who didn't like this new Princess. To then Su Liya was nothing more than an opportunistic gold-digger who seduced a bright talent of Northern Wei. These women have never liked her and never would, they have always searched for an opportunity to put her down and this was it.

Su Liya didn't like the attention focused on her by these women, they didn't even bother to hide their disgust. She kept her face forward and ignored their comments and looks. Lu Yaozhu was right, why should she worry about what they said. People like them will only have something bad to say about her.
