"His Majesty has arrived!"

All the officials knelt to welcome the emperor, while the Crown Prince of Xiliang, Princess Nanyi, and the Second Prince of Donglie stood and bowed.

The Emperor waved his hand, "Rise, all of you."

Everyone stood up and then sat down.

The Emperor sat down on the dragon throne and looked at the Crown Prince of Xiliang and the Second Prince of Donglie, saying, "Xiliang and Donglie are thousands of miles away from our Great Chu. Since they have come all this way, why not stay a few more days?"

The Crown Prince of Xiliang said, “We have been here for quite some time now. The scenery of Da Chu is beautiful. We were too busy to appreciate it properly on our way here. On the way back, we can slow down and enjoy the scenery along the way.”

The Emperor nodded, "In that case, I will not keep you any longer."

Empress Song smiled and said, "Have you been enjoying your time in our Great Chu these past few days, Princess Nanyi?"

Shen Wan was sitting there, drinking tea, when she heard Empress Song's words and her lips twitched violently.

I've never seen anyone so vindictive.

Princess Nanyi had only embarrassed Princess Shouchun by dancing, and now that Princess Shouchun was about to return to Xiliang, Empress Song was still going to give Princess Nanyi a difficult problem at the farewell banquet.

Princess Nanyi came to the Great Chu to celebrate the birthday, but she was arrested and imprisoned in the city patrol office. She fell ill and then fell into the water in the palace. This princess, who is of the highest status, probably did not suffer more than half a month in the past fifteen years. Empress Song even asked her if she had a good time.

However, Shen Wan was genuinely curious about how Princess Nanyi would respond, as the princess didn't seem to have very high emotional intelligence.

The Crown Prince of Xiliang sighed and rubbed his forehead.

His sister might not be able to hear the malice in Empress Song's words, but when his sister is unhappy, she'll say anything.

Even as the elder brother, he couldn't cover his younger sister's mouth in front of Da Chu and Dong Lie.

Well, they're leaving tomorrow anyway, so whether the Empress of Great Chu is happy or not doesn't matter anymore.

Princess Nanyi looked at Empress Song and said, "I didn't have much fun. My brother and the others went hunting without me. It wasn't very interesting for me to go shopping with the palace maids. I originally wanted to ask Princess Shouchun to go shopping with me, but my brother was afraid that you would be troubled by your brother's affairs, so he didn't want me to cause you any trouble."

Princess Nanyi's voice, as melodious as a nightingale's song, echoed throughout the hall.

Shen Wan forced herself not to laugh out loud.

Do you think you can just casually rub salt into a princess's wounds? You've just humiliated her again.

The left side, along with Empress Song, has disgraced both Xiliang and Donglie.

Empress Song could not maintain her smile.

Those below were so frustrated they suffered internal injuries.

Don't expose someone's shortcomings, and don't hit someone in the face.

They, on the other hand, deliberately rub salt into their sore spots without holding back at all. It's really killing them; if they can't help but laugh, their careers will be over.

The Emperor glanced at Empress Song, who once again felt extremely uneasy.
