Su Yingxue suddenly remembered, "Yes, the Princess he married was the little princess of Beiling City! How come the empress today is from the Great Wei Dynasty."
Chu Yihan figured out the crux of the matter, making Su Yingxue even more restless.
She couldn't wait until tomorrow, so in the middle of the night, she rushed with Chu Yihan to Qin Muyan's sleeping quarters, intending to ask him for clarifications.
But Wei Jue guarded the sleeping quarters, not letting them in, and just as the standoff continued, the eunuch announced loudly, "The empress has arrived—"
Beneath the imperial carriage, a woman dressed in a gold-flecked phoenix robe, with a dignified air, came down in front of Su Yingxue. She greeted them very kindly and even reached out to grab Su Yingxue's hand, "This must be the cousin Yingxue often mentioned by the emperor?"
Su Yingxue didn't reject her touch, but she sensed some hostility from this woman.
Strangely, that subtle female intuition.
