This chapter is from Li Tian Hao's perspective:
I noticed that the Princess Consort walking near me as I stood underneath the apple tree in the garden. I hurriedly called out to her however she looked quite confused. Why? Did didi not talk to her at all? Or was it that he didn't call her princess consort?
~Author.
Well since the third princess was di mei*(1), then only looking after her for Li Tian You. Just as I was going to strike up a conversation with Princess Chiu Yeung, Yu Mo came rushing to me and announced that there was a eunuch from the palace wanting to see me. I excused myself from Chiu Yeung's presence and walked briskly towards the guest room where the eunuch was.
The eunuch turned his head and saw me, he bowed down briskly and quickly greeted me. I gestured for him to get up and speak properly. "Your highness, his majesty has called for an urgent meeting with all the ministers and Princes. He specifically wants you to attend tomorrow morning's court," announced the eunuch in his shrill voice. I nodded at his words and beckoned one of the maids to send him out. As soon as the eunuch left, I quickly grabbed Yu Mo and asked, "what's going on?". Yu Mo bent down and explained that since Tian You and the princess married, His majesty has asked didi to refrain from coming to the morning court so they could enjoy their sweet moments. "Yu Mo go outside and find out why His Majesty is calling me to the morning court tomorrow," I ordered as Yu Mo quickly left the manor. I returned to my room and began writing a letter to Tian You and explained how things were over here.
An hour later Yu Mo returned. I looked up to see him running towards me. I poured him a cup of tea, which he quickly took and drank. After he sat down and got his breath, I gently asked him "What did you find out?". Yu Mo turned towards me and began explaining "I asked a few of the maids and eunuch working in the throne room and from what I've heard from them the basic summary is because of the flood in Gusu,". Gusu? Gusu is known to have rich soil, and a really large river follows through it. This river would cause trouble for the local citizens during tornado season. Isn't that where Lin Xin'er is from? Wait this is a perfect opportunity. They can finally meet. OMG, I can't believe such an opportunity has landed. But I need a good reason why I'm so eager to go there. Eh. I just thought of one. Gus has brilliant scenery and landscapes, so why don't I use the excuse that we need to go on a honeymoon I need Tian You and Lin Xin'er to meet. Both of them need to clear up their misunderstandings. Even if they won't be able to end up together.
I picked up my pen again and began finishing the letter.
