"Come on, come back to the palace with me. You've all worked hard. It's so dark here. Once we get back to the palace, you can introduce yourselves one by one." Xiao Yun waved her hand, exuding an air of dominance.
Seeing Princess Chang Le walk towards a palace road, the palace maids hurriedly followed, saying, "Princess, please wait, the sedan chair is this way."
Xiao Yun turned around and saw that there was a sedan chair waiting on the other side of the carriage.
She asked, "Is it far? Do we need to take a sedan chair?"
The palace maid quickly bowed and said, "It's not far. His Majesty was worried that the princess would get tired, so he specially asked Eunuch Ma to send a sedan chair to fetch her."

Watching her son act decisively and efficiently when doing important things, yet he was cautious and timid when facing Jiang Shuyue.
The Empress Dowager waved her hand, "Couldn't you at least arrange for us to meet?"
