"I... Sister Xiao Cui, I was stopped and questioned by the Prince on the way, which is why it took me so long to get here."
"Your Highness?"
"That's right."
"I see. Oh well, since His Highness has spoken, let's go to the Cold Courtyard!"
"To the Cold Courtyard?"
"That's right, the prince has instructed us to serve the princess in the Cold Courtyard from now on."
"What? They're all staying in the cold courtyard?"
"That's right."
“This…Your Highness, really, she doesn’t live in such a nice courtyard, but insists on living in that dilapidated, empty courtyard.”
"Shh, Xiao Xin, watch your words if you don't want to die."
"I…"
Xiao Xin entered the palace three months later than Xiao Cui, so she always treated Xiao Cui as her older sister.
Xiao Cui always treated her like a younger sister, and the two had a very good relationship. Xiao Cui often helped her.
So most of the time, she listened to Xiao Cui.
"Let's go, Xiao Xin, let's go to the Cold Courtyard!"
"good."
After they finished speaking, they stood up and headed towards the cold courtyard.
This way.
Ye Qingcheng also returned to the Cold Courtyard.
Xiao Tao saw that Ye Qingcheng was dressed in gorgeous clothes, exuding a noble temperament. Her entire outfit was the kind of elegant and luxurious attire that only a princess could possess.
He greeted her with a delighted expression.
"Miss, congratulations, Miss."
Ye Qingcheng was puzzled after hearing this and sat down on the stone bench.
"Congratulations on what?"
"Congratulations, Miss! You've finally seen the light at the end of the tunnel," Xiao Tao said with a beaming smile.
"What's the meaning?"
"This servant congratulates you, Miss, on finally winning the Prince's attention and gaining his recognition of your status."
"I…"
"Yes! Miss, only a princess would wear such an outfit!"
"What? Xiao Tao, you're saying my outfit is that of a princess?"
"That's right."
Upon hearing this, Ye Qingcheng immediately spat out the tea she had just taken a sip of.
Cough cough cough!
"Miss, please calm down and don't get agitated."
Seeing this, Xiao Tao quickly went over, gently patted her back, and said.
Ye Qingcheng coughed a few times and then glared at Xiao Tao: "Cough... When did I get excited? If I had known this was the princess's attire, I would never have worn it."
"Miss, please don't take your good fortune for granted. You should know that there are countless noble ladies in the capital who want to marry the prince."
"Hmph, those are them, I don't want to."
"Oh dear! Miss, you don't realize it, but you've been married into this family for six years now! Although you've always lived in the cold courtyard, you are still a princess! Many people are jealous of that status."
"Alright, alright, I don't care."
"Oh! Miss..."
"Your Highness, have you returned here? We servants have come to serve you on the orders of the Prince."
Xiao Tao was speaking when Xiao Cui's voice came from outside the courtyard gate.
