The Duke Ding Manor was naturally unwilling to let their daughter be a small secondary consort, but what if she was the future Princess Consort?
The few of them chatted with the Empress for a while. Worthy Consort Xu was annoyed. She adjusted the pearl hairpin at her temples and stood up. "I still have something on in the palace, so I'll go back first. I'll visit you another day."
"Send Worthy Consort," the Empress said to Emissary Cui.
"There's no need," Worthy Consort Xu said.
Yu Wan smiled and stood up. "It's getting late. I should take my leave. If you don't mind, I'll send you out."
It would be unreasonable to refuse again.
Worthy Consort Xu really did not say anything else and left Zhaoyang Palace with Yu Wan.
The eunuchs carried the palanquin forward. Worthy Consort Xu waved her hand, and the eunuchs tactfully left.
