"Please make yourself at home, Your Highness, and go back to rest well." Although Prince Liang and Liu Yao had been stealing glances at their stunningly beautiful grand-niece-in-law from time to time, they both looked disappointed when they heard that she was leaving.
However, they also knew that it was unreasonable to have female relatives accompany them while drinking, so they did not try to persuade them to stay.
After leaving the banquet hall, Yun Yuqing did not return to the inner quarters. Instead, she summoned some maids and had them carry the prepared food to the villa where the criminals were being held.
"Halt!" Their group made no attempt to conceal their presence, so they were quickly spotted by Huang Huihong's men.
Yun Yuqing smiled slightly: "You all have worked hard on guard duty. These are dishes prepared by the Prince's Mansion for you. I'm bringing them over to you."

Yun Yuqing smiled slightly: "No need, I'll have the maids take it in, so that the soldiers won't have to leave their posts."
"This..." Huang Huihong hesitated. Logically speaking, this was against the rules. Nowadays, apart from their own people, only Liang Wang and Liu Yao could enter this courtyard.
However, seeing Yun Yuqing's radiant smile, he found it hard to refuse, and what she said also made some sense, so he let her in.
Anyway, she's just a beautiful and gentle Princess Wu, and a group of frail maids, so it shouldn't have much of an impact, right?
