All the princes and ministers attended the ceremony one after another to wash away the dust of Qiu Xiang. In the harem, only the two concubines Shude were invited.

In the court, beauties were dancing gracefully with their fragrant clothes and hair on their temples, while outside the court they were drinking and chatting happily.
