    "My lord, it's ready."

    After retying the hair tie, Song Wan immediately lowered his head and backed away.

    Gu Yanting glanced at the meticulously combed hair from the bronze mirror, then glanced at Song Wan. Without making any comments, he stood up and walked out. Song Wan hurriedly stepped up to follow.

    The two of them walked out of the main courtyard one after another and met Xu Yingying who had been waiting outside.

    Xu Yingying's eyes were still red and full of water. Gu Yanting tried his best to soften his voice and said comfortingly: "His Majesty asked her to enter the palace together."

    The implication is that it was not his original intention to bring Song Wan into the palace.

    Xu Yingying nodded repeatedly, holding back her surging emotions and said, "Yingying knows, I wish you a smooth trip."

    Gu Yanting has not bought a carriage yet, so Song Wan still rides a horse with him.

    Arriving at the palace gate, Gu Yanting reined in the horse's reins, dismounted neatly, and then stretched out his hand to Song Wan. Song Wan was about to hand it to him, but Gu Yanting suddenly retracted his hand as if he remembered something.

    I¡¯m afraid Xu Yingying will be sad.

    Song Wan understood very well. He grabbed the saddle and dismounted carefully.

    Song Wan had never ridden a horse a few times. This was the first time she had dismounted by herself. Gu Yanting did not help her hold the reins of the horse. Song Wan was scared and did not step on the ground for a long time. The horse suddenly moved.  Song Wan was so frightened that he let go. He thought he would fall to the ground, but his waist tightened and Gu Yanting caught him firmly.

    Song Wan breathed a sigh of relief and was about to say thank you when Gu Yanting let go of her and said coldly: "Song Wan, this is the palace, and you must have a certain temper even if you are shameless."

    Song Wan's heart dropped to the bottom. It turned out that no matter what she was doing now, in Gu Yanting's eyes, it was all deliberate seduction.

    Song Wan did not defend himself, but said softly: "I know my mistake."

    After entering the palace, Gu Yanting first went to the imperial study room to meet the saint, while Song Wan stopped at Chengde Gate.

    The rules in the palace were strict and there were many dignitaries. After Gu Yanting left, Song Wan retreated to the roadside, folding his hands neatly in front of his lower abdomen, looking down at the toes of his shoes without looking around.

    After waiting for more than an hour, Gu Yanting came out, accompanied by a guiding eunuch.

    Gu Yanting didn¡¯t speak to Song Wan and walked straight forward. Song Wan¡¯s legs were so stiff when he stood that he almost fell down as soon as he took a step. He punched his legs twice before he followed.

    Song Wan was the legitimate daughter of the Song family. She went to the palace many times for banquets. After walking for a while, she discovered that the palace guide did not take them to the Chaoling Palace where palace banquets were held, but to the royal school grounds.

    Song Wan was restless, but he arrived at the school grounds quickly. The summer solstice had just passed, and the school grounds were surrounded by lush green trees. A group of palace people had been waiting here for a long time, and one of the crimson figures stood out.

    Seeing the man's face clearly, Song Wan felt as if he had fallen into an ice cellar.

    That is the King of Yue.

    King Zhao Li of Yue is His Majesty¡¯s youngest brother. He is only twenty-seven years old this year. His Majesty has always treated him as his favorite son.

    Zhao Li was lustful and perverse. At the age of fifteen, he got drunk and became frivolous with the legitimate daughter of the former Minister of Etiquette. For the sake of face, the royal family directly gave the woman a marriage and made her the Princess of Yue. Within a year, the woman died.  He loved his daughter so much that he resigned and returned home.  Song Wan's father copied Zhao Li's book for this purpose, and his Majesty banned Zhao Li for three months.

    However, Zhao Li's bad nature is hard to get rid of. Four years ago, after the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet, he forcibly kidnapped the eldest daughter-in-law of the Minister of Industry.  The emperor remonstrated, threatening that the emperor would break the law and be guilty of the same crime as the common people, and wanted his majesty to severely punish Zhao Li.

    Seeing that the situation was too serious and it was difficult to quell the public anger, His Majesty asked Zhao Li to go to Lizhou, his fiefdom, in the name of derogation, but in fact there was no punishment.

    Zhao Li is used to being lawless, but Song Wan's father and brother want his life for a mere woman. How can he not hold a grudge?

    Song Wan's heart was beating fiercely, and he followed Gu Yanting to the King of Yue. Gu Yanting leaned down to salute, while Song Wan knelt down and knelt down to worship.

    Gu Yanting said: "His Royal Highness the King of Yue."

    Song Wan said: "I pay my respects to His Highness the King of Yue." (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
