The carriage slowly stopped after traveling for a short distance. "Prince, Princess, Longevity Palace has arrived."

The carriage stopped, and the palace attendant waited respectfully by the side.

Liu Ruoqing jumped down from the carriage before Yan Yuan could do so and raised his head to look at the word "Longevity Palace".

Just from the name alone, one could tell that this was the palace where his mother, the empress dowager, lived in.

Her Majesty's noble wife had taken a quick glance at the wedding ceremony a month ago.

Because Yan Yuan using a dog to pay respects to the empress was a farce, she naturally did not succeed in paying her respects to the empress dowager, so she did not have the time to take a glance at the empress dowager. Of the other guests present, she did not recognise many of them.

Under the palace attendant's lead, the two of them entered the great hall of Longevity Palace without a word.

"Lao Jiu, you came."

Just as she stepped into the hall, she heard an extremely pleasant voice coming from her right hand side. Liu Ruoqing's line of sight subconsciously followed the direction of the voice and looked over.

It was a beautiful face, and it was precisely because he was good-looking that he stood out in the crowd. At the wedding ceremony that day, besides the Empress Dowager, he was the only other person she had glanced at.

It seemed that he was also from a royal family. In between his brows, he looked somewhat similar to Yan Yuan, but he did not have the cold and aloof feeling that Yan Yuan did.

Tsk tsk tsk, who would have thought that this royal blood of the East Chu all looked so good that it was a complete mess.

Seeing Liu Ruoqing looking at him, the man also smiled at her. His eyes, which were as deep as ink, carried a sense of cunning, but in the blink of an eye, it caused the entire solemn hall to blossom like a hundred flowers.

Liu Ruoqing watched in a daze for a few seconds, then regained his senses.

"Lao Jiu, you're finally here. Wailing Home can't wait to see your wangfei."

It was the empress dowager's voice, kind and dignified.

"Old wine?" I'm still a girl with a red face. "

Liu Ruoqing lowered her eyes and muttered with a smile. Although her voice was soft, this Longevity Palace was already quiet.

"Puff ?"

Liu Ruoqing unconsciously raised his head and saw that everyone in the great hall was looking at her with strange gazes. There were those who were ridiculing her, those who were taking joy in her misfortune, and those who were looking at her with disbelief ?

Beside her, there were also two man-eating gazes that were shooting towards her. It was as if they wanted to stare at her until two holes appeared in her body.

There was no need to look, Liu Ruoqing knew who the owner of this gaze was.

The empress dowager was also tickled by her words, the smile in her eyes unabated as she moistened her throat. "Tian Xin, you've been in my Easternum for a month already, are you used to it?"

Seeing the empress dowager ask her, Liu Ruoqing immediately cast his gaze over. When he came, he had already made a decision in his heart.

This East Chu was Yan Yuan's territory, and all these imperial relatives were Yan Yuan's men. When she came here, she did not have a background, and she did not have a backer.

Not even a day after Yan Yuan returned to the capital, she had already offended him from head to toe.

Any random person in this great hall would be able to easily cripple her.

At the moment, what she wanted to do the most important thing was to rope them in, and turn Yan Yuan's people into her own. In the future, would she not be able to do whatever she wanted in the Easternum?

As he thought about it, Liu Ruoqing's expression unconsciously changed as he laughed.
