Both of them were considered seniors in the palace. They were the ones who watched how the atmosphere in the court changed step by step to its current tension-filled days.

The Princess had just arrived here, so it was natural for her not to know how nasty His Majesty’s temper could get. They were her servants, which was why they must be vigilant.

Lin Feilu hissed, “That scary?”

Tingchun and Shixia hurriedly nodded, not daring to raise their voices, “Princess, let us return first. It is getting late, so us humble servants will accompany you for a stroll tomorrow.”

Lin Feilu bent her eyes into crescent moons and smiled, “No, I’m going to the Lin An Palace.”

Tingchun and Shixia’s faces turned pale. Though they pleaded repeatedly, Lin Feilu comforted them as they walked, “Don’t worry, His Majesty treats me very well; nothing will happen.”

How could the two servants believe her words?

No matter how His Majesty treated her, those acts were done within the rules! If she were to break the rules, His Majesty would be ruthless in his executions!

But no matter what they said, the stubborn princess didn’t want to listen to their persuasion, walking all the way to the stairs in front of the Lin An Palace. Tingchun and Shixia’s faces were already pale as they ultimately accepted their fate.

Lin Feilu also said with special concern for them, “If you are afraid, you can just wait here.”

They were granted to serve her at the Yong An Palace, meaning they were now the Princess’s aides. How could they abandon their master due to greed for their lives and fear of their deaths at such a crucial time? The two looked at each other before tremblingly following her up the steps towards the gate of the palace.

The Lin An Palace was grand and full of charisma, with two guards standing at the door and a eunuch waiting inside to relay information regarding any visitors. Tingchun bravely stepped forward, “Eunuch Hong, our Princess is asking to see His Majesty, so please pass it on.”

When Eunuch Hong heard this, he hurriedly came out with a smile, “This humble servant greets Your Highness. Princess, you are here at last. His Majesty had given his orders quite a while ago, hurry and come in.”

Tingchun and Shixia were stunned as Lin Feilu already walked in through the palace gate.

Behind the gates of the palace was a high and wide corridor, and there were guards standing on both sides of the corridor every couple of steps. Even when she was walking past them, they did not deter their attention from their duties. Passing through the promenade, she saw a very humongous divider that was made from jade. The entire slab was hollowed out and carved intricately, making it look beautiful and gorgeous.

Bypassing the jade divider was the main hall.

Stepping into the main hall, Tingchun and Shixia, who followed behind the Princess with their heads bowed and body trembling, heard Lin Feilu happily announce, “I’m here.”

The two were in a state of confusion as they boldly raised their eyes and looked forward.

They saw the Princess holding the hem of her skirt as she started running towards His Majesty, who was sitting on the soft couch reviewing his documents.

The Emperor still had a pen in his hand, but as he hugged her with one arm, he placed the pen on the edge of the inkstone. Then, he embraced her in his arms with a smile.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone else, Lin Feilu was still a little embarrassed, so she broke away from his arms after hugging him.
