"As for my meeting with His Royal Highness, it was purely due to Prince Yu's affairs. His Royal Highness simply came to inquire about my reasons."
Shangguan Lingyun smiled faintly, "In that case, I won't stay any longer. You can rest here for a while. I'll take you to see the lanterns in the evening."
Ye Xiaoxiao did not refuse, and Shangguan Lingyun left after he finished speaking.
Not long after Shangguan Lingyun left, Shangguan Du sent someone to fetch her.
Ye Xiaoxiao was a little annoyed, but she still respectfully accompanied the eunuch.
The young eunuch led people in directly. After Ye Xiaoxiao entered the imperial study, she respectfully bowed to Shangguan Du.
"Your humble servant Ye Xiaoxiao pays respects to Your Majesty."
Shangguan Du looked down at the memorial in his hand without saying a word. Ye Xiaoxiao knew that he did it on purpose.
However, Ye Xiaoxiao did not move. She knelt on the ground respectfully, waiting for Shangguan Du's response.
After a long time, just when Ye Xiaoxiao felt her knees ache, Shangguan Du finally spoke.
"Get up."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
"I heard your face has healed, why are you still wearing a veil?"
Ye Xiaoxiao took off her veil and stood up to answer in a calm and collected manner.
"Your Majesty, the wound on my face has not healed yet, so I cannot stand the wind."
"Oh? Then when did your injury heal?"
"Your Majesty, by the grace of God, I stumbled upon this scar removal ointment at a pharmacy a few days ago."
Shangguan Du asked some meaningless questions again, and just when he thought Ye Xiaoxiao had relaxed, he suddenly asked.
"Did you do what happened to Prince Yu?"
Ye Xiaoxiao showed just the right amount of puzzled expression on her face.
"Prince Yu's matter? Your Majesty, I am ignorant and do not know what you are talking about. I hope Your Majesty will explain it clearly."
