Having just left the court session, there were sure to be many courtiers around, and she did not wish to encounter them, so she walked slowly. By the time she reached Zichen Palace, indeed, she could no longer see any of the courtiers.
When Hu Siyi received the news, he hurried out to greet her. On seeing the Crown Princess, he stepped forward to pay his respects, "I have seen the Crown Princess."
"Manager Hu, there's no need for excessive formality," Su Xinyi said with a smile, looking at Hu Siyi. "I wish to seek an audience with my imperial father. Please, could you inform him on my behalf?"
In his mind, Hu Siyi thought that the Crown Princess rarely came to Zichen Palace, but whenever she did, it was always for some significant matter.
Even though this was what he was thinking, he said aloud, "Your Majesty is currently occupied, and I fear the Crown Princess may have to wait. I will immediately go and report, but please, Crown Princess, wait here for a moment."
