Chapter 686 Entering the Palace



"You're really making a big show of this. When are you arriving? Let me get ready."

"Half an hour later."

"Okay, that's enough time."

However, before Fulu's people could arrive, someone else got there first.

Xiangzhu arrived at Fanhua Courtyard with several maids and nannies.

"Before Her Highness returned to the manor, Consort Mu could naturally stay in her own courtyard and disregard the rules. But now that Her Highness has returned, Consort Mu must remember to pay her respects to Her Highness every morning and evening. Now, please come with me, Consort Mu."

If it were any other maid, Mu Run would have been too lazy to pay any attention, but since it was Xiang Zhu who came, she couldn't help but hesitate for a moment.

If Xiangzhu hadn't taken her there, given Yan Yuemei's personality, she might have taken her anger out on her and punished her.

We eventually became acquainted.

"I won't make things difficult for Miss Xiangzhu. I'll go and pay my respects now." Mu Run straightened her clothes. She wore a long, smoky blue dress embroidered with flowers, exuding wealth and elegance, and a snow-white, exquisite fox fur coat. This outfit accentuated her rosy, heart-shaped face, making her appear even more fair and beautiful, a natural beauty.

Xiangzhu carefully examined Murun's face, feeling a pang of pity for her wasted beauty. The princess would certainly not let her go, especially with a face even more beautiful than the princess's.

But before they could even leave the hospital, Granny Liu arrived.

He stopped Xiangzhu, saying, "What bad luck, Miss Xiangzhu. The Prince just sent word back that he wants Consort Mu to come to the palace."

Mu Run looked at Xiang Zhu.

Xiangzhu was also looking at her.

Mu Run smiled and said, "I wonder if things are more urgent over there?"

Xiangzhu frowned and asked Liu Mama, "The Prince summoned Consort Mu. What important matter could it be? I need to report back to Her Majesty."

"I don't know," Liu Mama replied.

Whether she truly didn't know or was feigning ignorance, the journey to the palace couldn't be delayed, so Xiangzhu didn't stop her any further and let Murun go with Granny Liu. In reality, she returned to Hanzhang Garden to report back, feeling quite relieved.

When Yan Yuemei found out, she remained silent for a long time before letting her leave, unusually without getting angry.

Qitong asked Xiangzhu what happened, and Xiangzhu told her what had happened.

Qi Tong couldn't help but sigh, "Fortunately, Granny Liu arrived in time, otherwise, after Her Highness met that person, it's hard to guarantee that she would be able to enter the palace unscathed."

“But after she came back…” Xiangzhu glanced quietly at the room where Yan Yuemei was, “I always felt uneasy, like something was about to happen.”

Zhao Xiang, the chief steward of the Prince's mansion, hurriedly entered Hanzhang Garden. Upon seeing Qitong and Xiangzhu, he said with a beaming smile, "Great news! The Prince has just been named Crown Prince!"

Xiangzhu and Qitong didn't react for a moment.

"Manager Zhao, what did you say?" Xiangzhu asked.

"The prince has been named crown prince! The empress will now be addressed as Crown Princess!"

A crisp 'crack' echoed from the room as porcelain shattered on the floor.

...

Along the way, Granny Liu gave Mu Run a crash course in court etiquette. She was so engrossed in speaking that beads of sweat appeared on her forehead.

Mu Run felt a pang of pity and told Granny Liu that she knew a little about palace etiquette and there was no need to worry. But Granny Liu thought about how Mu Run came from a poor background and how she would know anything about court etiquette, which required a long period of immersion and learning.

Just before entering the palace, Granny Liu repeatedly reminded her, "Don't look around aimlessly, listen more and speak less, or you'll get into trouble for what you say!"

"I understand, don't worry, Granny." Mu Run waved her hand dismissively at Granny Liu.

Seeing her attitude, Liu Mama's face turned pale. "You must be respectful, cautious, and obedient, Your Highness, please remember this!"
