As soon as the fifth watch sounded, there was movement in Qingfeng Garden.
While combing her mistress's hair, Nanny Qin said, "Today's exchange meeting will not officially begin until the hour of Si. It's only the hour of Yin, so there are still three hours to go. Princess, would you like to sleep a little longer?"
The eldest princess sat with her eyes closed, but there was no trace of sleepiness in her voice. "How can I sleep? Is the garden decorated?"
Nanny Qin said quickly, "It started just after midnight."
The exchange meeting was to be held in Qingfeng Garden, but there was nothing to see in Qingfeng Garden except a few wintersweets. So the eldest princess had people tie small flowers made of colorful cloth on the dead branches in winter, at least to make the garden lively and not too deserted.
