Ye Qingcheng also realized from the chrysanthemum appreciation banquet that the Eldest Princess and the Empress were in cahoots.
Furthermore, it might be because of Qin Mohan that the eldest princess doesn't like her very much.
Therefore, she didn't want to invite bad luck by striking up a conversation with the princess.
After the Empress Dowager entered the inner chamber, she lifted the window curtain to look at the scenery outside.
