Looking at the luxurious royal palanquin in the distance, its glazed golden roof gleaming in the sunlight, Xu Qingyi couldn't help but feel a bit dazed.
The court meeting should have just ended around this hour, why would the Empress suddenly come here?
Lin Jingzhu guiltily lowered her head, inexplicably feeling like she had been caught doing something wrong.
"Eunuch, save me." Chen Mo's lips moved slightly.
Eunuch Jin shook his head and said, "Her Majesty the Empress already knows you spent the night here, Mr. Chen, so don't make it difficult for us."
"..."
"Mr. Chen, please."
Chen Mo, unable to do anything, walked dejectedly toward the sedan chair.
Seeing this, Lin Jingzhu stamped her foot and said, "This matter can't be blamed on Mr. Chen; he was only helping me to dispel the Chill Toxin. I have to go explain to Aunt!"
However, just as she took a step, Eunuch Jin stopped her with a raised hand.
"Miss Lin, please stay. Her Majesty only called for Mr. Chen, not you."
