Lian Zining was actually a little confused, because he had only coughed once in court, and His Majesty was worried about his health and had him sent back to his residence to rest. Whether this was a royal favor or something else, Lian Zining was actually a little unsure.
Not only did Lian Zining seem a little unaccustomed to it, but everyone in the manor was also somewhat unaccustomed to it. This was really abnormal and made people a little uneasy.
Normally, at this hour, people are either still in court or have just finished court and still have to sit in their offices. It's practically impossible for them to go back to their residences immediately, as they still have a lot of official business to attend to.
But if the excuse was that she was sick and needed rest, then Lian Zining was perfectly healthy, yet she was sent back directly. There was no mention of honor or reward, not even an imperial edict or decree.
Just as Lian Zining was still wondering, the steward rushed in anxiously and said excitedly, "Master, a decree has come from the palace that Her Highness the Princess must return to the manor to visit her family."
Lian Zining was stunned for a moment, then became happy. Although she now had grandchildren, her own precious granddaughter was the apple of her eye.
Lian Zining hurriedly summoned his wife and children. The gates of the Lian residence were wide open. Even though Zhu Ruyi was Lian Zining's granddaughter, her most important identity was that of a princess, and proper etiquette could not be disregarded.
Just as everyone in the manor was making preparations, they unknowingly noticed many strangers appearing at the manor gate, who appeared to be guards protecting the princess.
Suddenly, Lian Zining froze. He saw a somewhat familiar figure, a young man striding confidently ahead. And his beloved granddaughter, clutching the young man's clothes, followed closely behind.
It was clearly stated that it was a princess visiting her family, so why is the crown prince here too?!
