The music was almost coming to an end, but when they looked up into the sky, there was nothing there.
The ladies, especially the Second Lady of the Chu Family, were wearing a very complicated look on their faces. The Princess Consort's real intention of today was to let them see the phoenix, so if the bird did not show up, what could they do whilst sitting here?
Also, the Second Lady of the Chu Family was the person who raised the proposal, and that made her even more worried.
They did not have any interest in the phoenix, they were here to suck to the Princess Consort! How they were doing back at home was related to the court as well. So now everyone was trying to think of what to do next.
Even if Princess Consort could not call out the phoenix, they should not offend her, since she was the Phoenix Girl and the Princess Consort of Lord Ling!
