Princess Xinyangʼs veil was meshed, the kind of invisible from the outside but clear from within.

She glanced at Princess Ningʼan nearby, asking curiously, ”And who is this?”

”I am Ningʼan.” Princess Ningʼan replied calmly.

Princess Xinyang nodded, saying, ”So itʼs Sister Ningʼan. Youʼve changed quite a bit, I almost didnʼt recognize you.”

Ningʼan half-bowed.

Princess Xinyang nodded in return.

Empress Xiao said to everyone, ”Alright, thereʼs nothing else here. You may all leave.”

Princess Xinyang said, ”Iʼll go in to see His Majesty.”

”Very well.” Empress Xiao agreed.

Since Princess Xinyang had returned from outside the capital, it was only appropriate for her to pay respects to the Emperor.

The Crown Prince had to attend court the next day, and Empress Xiao had many things to deal with, so she left with the Crown Prince.

Imperial Consort Zhuang and the others naturally followed suit.

As Princess Ningʼan turned to return to Bixia Palace, she was stopped by Princess Xinyang.

Princess Ningʼan paused and looked at her, ”Is there anything else you need, Sister Xinyang?”

Princess Xinyang asked with concern, ”You donʼt look well. Are you ill?”

Princess Ningʼan pursed her lips and remained silent.

Eunuch Wei quickly explained, ”Princess Xinyang might not be aware, but there has been an assassination attempt on His Majesty recently. Princess Ningʼan stepped in to protect him, blocking the blade for His Majesty. Princess Ning’an must still be recovering from her injuries.”

Princess Xinyang nodded, ”I see. I didnʼt expect such a major event to occur within less than a month of my departure from the capital. Sister Ningʼan acted selflessly to protect His Majesty, which is truly admirable. If Sister Ningʼan doesnʼt mind, would you like to join me in visiting His Majesty? We sisters havenʼt seen each other in many years, itʼs a good opportunity to catch up.”

Eunuch Wei glanced strangely at Princess Xinyang. Since when did Princess Xinyang become so enthusiastic?

His gaze unconsciously swept over Princess Xinyang, and when he saw the knuckles of her hand holding the imperial decree, his temples throbbed fiercely!

What was going on?

Princess Xinyang had hair on her hands!

Princess Ningʼan hesitated. When she was about to refuse, Princess Xinyang grabbed her wrist through her sleeve, ”Sister Ningʼan, youʼre not thinking of refusing me, are you?”

In such a public setting, she naturally couldnʼt refuse.

All of Princess Xinyang’s backers in the palace had fallen one after another. Of course, she couldnʼt reject Princess Xinyang who had just been appointed to oversee the country.

Otherwise, it would not fit her persona of trying to please Empress Xiao diligently over these past few days.

Princess Ningʼan said, ”How could that be? Let us go in.”

Princess Xinyang took Ningʼanʼs hand and stepped into the bedchamber.

Eunuch Wei watched Princess Xinyang’s back and rubbed his eyes hard.

Did he see wrong?

Which woman would have hair on her hands?

Just then, a gust of cold wind blew, lifting Princess Xinyangʼs veil a bit. It also happened that she turned her head at that moment.

Eunuch Wei looked intently and almost fell to the ground on his butt.

Not only did Princess Xinyang have hair on her hands, but she also had an Adamʼs apple?!

The three people entered the bedchamber.

During which Princess Ningʼan also gave Princess Xinyang several strange glances, feeling that something was off about Princess Xinyang.

It was just that Princess Ningʼan and Princess Xinyang werenʼt particularly close before leaving the palace, and were even more distant afterward. Being unfamiliar with each other meant there was no room for suspicion.

There were many palace servants in the bedchamber. Princess Xinyang called Eunuch Wei over, saying, ”Take the others away. This princess wants to be alone with His Majesty and Princess Ningʼan.”

”Ah, understood.” Eunuch Wei suppressed the creeping sensation in his heart and discreetly glanced at the hair on Princess Xinyangʼs hand.

Oh my!

It was really there!

He pretended to drop his token, using the opportunity to crouch down and glance at the Adamʼs apple under Princess Xinyangʼs veil.

Heavens!

There was really an Adamʼs apple too!

He hadnʼt carefully examined Princess Xinyang before, and today was just a coincidence. He ended up seeing all the places he shouldnʼt have seen.

He suddenly felt a bit sorry for Marquis Xuanping...

Eunuch Wei took the palace servants away.

Only the sleeping Emperor and the two princesses remained in the room.

”Ah, Iʼm exhausted.” Princess Xinyang let go of Princess Ningʼanʼs hand and found a chair to sit down on. She then ordered imperiously, ”Little Yu’er, pour tea for this princess.”

But the servant girl called Little Yu’er completely ignored her words and went straight to the Emperorʼs bedside, pinching the Emperor’s wrist.

”What are you doing?”

Princess Ningʼan grabbed the servant girl’s wrist.

Princess Xinyangʼs expression changed, and she stood up abruptly.

Daring to grab her wrist? Was she not afraid of getting slapped away?

The servant girl looked calmly at Princess Ningʼanʼs hand. For some reason, Princess Ningʼan felt that her gaze was strangely familiar, and at the same time, it made people shiver involuntarily.

”All right, Little Yu’er, thereʼs nothing for you to do here. Go and prepare some tea.” Princess Xinyang discreetly separated their hands and placed Little Yu’er behind her, waving her hand at her dismissively.

As a result, she secretly received a slap on the back of her hand from Little Yu’er.

... That hurt.

Princess Xinyang chuckled, and she took Ningʼanʼs hand... Well, wrist, and said softly, ”Letʼs go sit over there and talk.”

Princess Ningʼan asked, ”Arenʼt you here to see imperial brother?”

Princess Xinyang said with a smile, ”Of course, I am. I mean, you go sit over there and wait for me. Iʼll see imperial brother first and then come to chat with you slowly.”

Princess Ningʼan glanced suspiciously at Princess Xinyang. Since they were not familiar with each other, she wasnʼt sure if Princess Xinyang had always behaved like this over the years. She didnʼt say anything and sat down in the chair over there.

Meanwhile, the servant girl instructed to prepare tea also found a chair and sat down.

Princess Ningʼan: ”...”

Werenʼt you supposed to make tea?

“Aiya, my poor Majesty, how badly injured you are.” Princess Xinyang pulled out a handkerchief, wiped away some nonexistent tears under her veil, and then waved to her servant girl, ”Little Yu’er, come here and look after the Emperor. If he wakes up, call me. Sister Ningʼan and I have something private to discuss.”

Little Yu’er gave her a sideways glance that carried disdain.

You’re overacting.

Little Yu’er went to the bedside.

Princess Xinyang dramatically choked with sobs and said, ”Watch over His Majesty carefully.”

Little Yu’er: ”...”
