Song Guo supported Ye Yiheng as they left the great hall.
When they reached an empty area, Song Guo quietly asked, "Your Highness, why did the Commandery Princess act like that today?"
Ye Yiheng didn't answer but instead asked, "What do you think?"
"I think," said Song Guo, nervously addressing his own concerns, "the Commandery Princess could have simply refused the nanny. Why go through the trouble of coming to the palace? The Princess Consort has a bad temper, and I'm afraid she might bully the Commandery Princess in the future."
With the Empress Dowager's demise, the Princess Consort now held the highest status in the palace. What if she targeted the Commandery Princess and made things difficult for her?
"Since Yanyan dared to act in such a manner, she must not fear that old woman." Pausing briefly, Ye Yiheng's eyes moved slightly, "I must go to Yanyan and find out the truth about what she discovered today."
Could it be as he suspected?
