"Your Majesty, I have no plans to start a family for the time being."

They ended the conversation and started talking about business.

"The nobleman Li Rui was referring to was a bastard from the second branch of the Gao family, the Minister of Rites' residence. He had been expelled from the family. The minister sent people to arrest him, but they found him dead from illness in his own courtyard."

Emperor Jianchang's face looked unhappy.

He said nothing more, and they discussed other matters.

Tao Yuwei left the imperial study and said shyly to Eunuch Zhao, "Last time I had an argument with the Seventh Princess, it was a big deal. Today I reflected on it at home and felt that I was a little impulsive that day.

Please ask Eunuch Zhao to send someone to take me to see the Seventh Princess. I want to apologize to her.

To make it up to her, I specially took a bottle of perfume that my mother made herself and gave it to her to make amends."

Zhao Chong was deeply relieved after hearing this.

The always domineering Princess Anle has grown a lot recently.

She actually knew how to reflect on herself. Your Majesty would be very happy if he knew it!

So he smiled and said it was a good thing.

He called his godson Zhao Kui and said, "Go and take Princess Anle to Qiumei Palace. The visit shouldn't be too long, as Princess Anle needs to have dinner with His Majesty."

Zhao Kui understood and nodded quickly.

His godfather's words reminded him that if the atmosphere was not right after he took Princess Anle to meet the Seventh Princess, he should take Princess Anle away as soon as possible to avoid another fight between the two.

Tao Yuwei took Yunxiao and followed Zhao Kui to the harem.

Shortly after they left, the maid who was left alone in the side hall quietly disappeared into the darkness.

The maidservant was as nimble as a rabbit. She familiarly avoided the patrols in various places in the palace, walked around the deserted palace, passed through the small door used only by eunuchs, and came to an empty palace.

Not long after she entered, a figure slowly appeared and entered the hall.

Tao Yuwei's side.

Follow Zhao Kui to Qiumei Palace where the seventh princess Xiao Zixuan lives.

Xiao Zixuan is copying the palace rules for the 101st time today.

When Xiao Zixuan heard that Zhao Kui brought Tao Yuwei to see her, her eyes widened and she almost spit fire.

She clenched her jaw and threw the brush in her hand away in anger.

"Go tell Zhao Kui that this princess wants to see that madman."

Thinking about the suffering I have endured recently, I have been under the strict guidance of the nanny all day long, either practicing etiquette or practicing needlework, and I can never finish my homework every day.

At night, she had to copy the palace rules two hundred times, and the next day she had to present them to the Empress for review before she could be accepted.

Seeing that her master's temper had not subsided at all, the personal maidservant beside Xiao Zixuan hurried to persuade her.

"Princess, Princess Anle has come to see you. You cannot refuse her. If you want the Queen to release you from your punishment as soon as possible, you must receive Princess Anle with courtesy."

Xiao Zixuan became even angrier after hearing this. "I am a princess of noble birth, how can I treat a barbarian with courtesy?"

"Princess, she was brought to you personally by Eunuch Zhao's godson. Your Majesty may also know about this. If you want to end the punishment as soon as possible, it would be best to meet her!"

Under the strong persuasion of her personal palace maid, Xiao Zixuan reluctantly nodded in agreement.

However, she did not see Tao Yuwei immediately. Instead, she took her time to wash up, dressed herself elegantly, walked with the graceful steps taught by the etiquette nanny, sat on the seat of honor, and then ordered people to open the palace gate.

Tao Yuwei stepped into Qiumei Palace.

Her eyes were calm and she didn't look away!

Seeing the almost unrecognizable Seventh Princess sitting there, Tao Yuwei almost laughed out loud.

Oh, this guy dressed himself up like a peacock.

She was wearing a green dress with the hem decorated with fabrics of various colors.

Xiao Zixuan raised her chin high and looked down at Tao Yuwei, her eyes full of wanton disdain.

It really looked like a proud peacock, looking down at her with disdain.

"Seventh Princess, I'm here to apologize to you. I was a little too harsh last time, and I'll be gentler next time."

Her words successfully broke Xiao Zixuan's defense.

"Anle, you've gone too far. This princess doesn't need your apology."

The Seventh Princess's dignified etiquette was broken in a short while.

Tao Yuwei smiled and sat down beside her.

"Seventh Princess, this is how you should act. You just made me feel like I was looking at a monkey."

Her words successfully angered Xiao Zixuan.

The other party stood up regardless of anything, rushed down, and wanted to pounce on her.

Fortunately, the person's personal maid was very capable and successfully stopped it.

"Anle, what on earth are you doing here? If you have nothing else to do, get out of here. This princess doesn't want to see you."

Seeing that the other party was completely broken by her, Tao Yuwei said leisurely, "I don't mean anything else. For the sake of Uncle An Huang's heart, let's stop making trouble."

"Here, I came here today to give you something as an apology for what happened before."

She waved to Yunxiao behind her, "Hurry up and bring the things up."

Yunxiao took out the beautifully packaged essence and presented it to Xiao Zixuan's maid.

"This is the essence my mother made last winter using fresh plum blossoms she picked. I'll give you a bottle, and all the grudges between us will be wiped out."

Tao Yuwei said casually while drinking tea.

Before coming, she did her homework. Xiao Zixuan loved plum blossoms the most, and her Qiumei Palace was full of plum trees.

The Seventh Princess didn't want her things at first, but when she saw the gorgeous plum blossoms painted on the outer packaging, she was shamefully moved.

She didn't care about being called petty and opened the package on the spot.
