Ning Hui hurriedly chased after her, shouting, "Princess! Stop the princess!"
The palace servants rushed forward, wanting to stop her but not daring to actually do so, and were already covered in sweat.
Ning Hui stepped forward to support her: "Princess, please calm down. The Emperor is currently worried about Prince Yuan's matter, and the Empress has also been frightened. If you go there now, you will only cause trouble. Let's think of another way."
Di Jinghan felt as if she had been doused with cold water, her eyes slightly red. Yes, her second brother's fate was still unknown! How could she act so impulsively? Didn't she know how her second brother was doing now?
"Ning Hui, you're right. I was too rash. Let's go see my second brother!"

What on earth is going on? This is giving me a terrible headache! All she wanted was to leave the palace! Now it seems that neither Liu Xinqi nor Li Li are reliable.
She drank water while thinking, her face contorted in a grimace. Xiaoyue didn't dwell on it and went back to continue mending.
