"Thank you, Commandery Princess." The two junior royal maids said as they straightened their bodies.
"Is His Highness inside the study?" Commandery Princess Yi'an smiled faintly with an indescribable gentleness and refinement.
The two royal maids exchanged a glance before one of them plucked up the courage to answer, "Yes."
"Could you send someone to relay to His Highness that Yi'an requests to see him."
"Yes." The other royal maid hurriedly ran off to the junior eunuchs' workroom.
Commandery Princess Yi'an just stood outside the Eastern Palace's courtyard wall as she waited quietly, revealing not a whit of impatience or agitation.
Soon, the eunuch Xiao'xi'zi strode over quickly and saluted Commandery Princess Yi'an. "Commandery Princess, His Highness has to deal with some pressing matters, so he is unable to spare time to receive you at the moment. It is best if you return."
