"No, you are my background, who dares to bully me." Ye Muyu spoke sincerely.
She didn't see the smile that Chu Heng couldn't help but reveal at the corner of his mouth, with a hint of pleasure flashing in his eyes.
"At that time, Chu Ziluo..." Ye Muyu recounted the events at the banquet to Chu Heng, then asked, "What do you think made Old Madam Li take a fancy to Chu Ziluo?"
Old Madam Li is the full sister of the Dowager Empress in the palace, their relationship is close and their feelings are excellent.
The Emperor Xuanming's relationship with the Dowager Empress is also harmonious, at least on the surface; the inner situation is unknown to outsiders.
Old Madam Li's favor towards Chu Ziluo, is it of her own volition, or is it the Dowager Empress's intention?
Chu Heng recalled today in the palace, when Emperor Xuanming inquired whether his wife and daughter also attended the Qingguo Duke's Mansion's flower viewing banquet, after which he said no more.
