The inner guard hesitated, wondering whether to tell His Majesty the news that Miss Li had met with the Seventh Prince that afternoon...
"What happened when you saw her? Speak!" Gu Jingyan obviously heard that he was hesitant to speak, and urged him with a frown.
The inner guard, clearly fearing His Majesty's authority, hurriedly lowered his head and continued to report, "Your Majesty, when I went there this afternoon, I saw the Seventh Prince looking for Miss Li at the entrance of the Xinzheku. I didn't dare to disturb her and brought her back."
"Oh?" This is interesting. He rubbed the jade ring a few more times. This girl, does she have any entanglement with her seventh brother?

Nanny Li quickly replied, "Yes, Miss Li is my palace maid." But she was thinking in her heart that it seemed that Miss Li would have a bright future. First, she was favored by the Seventh Prince, and now, even the Emperor came to visit her in person.

Nanny Li lowered her body even lower, "Your Majesty, you've arrived at an unfortunate time. Miss Li is currently delivering laundry to the various palaces."
