Wei Liao looked very helpless.
"Alright, since Your Highness is unwilling to help, I can't force you. I'll enter the palace and seek an audience with the emperor. I'll report to the emperor that Your Highness found Imperial Concubine Meng's belongings in the hands of pirates and ask the emperor to allow me to investigate this matter thoroughly."
With that, he turned to leave.
Xiao Juan looked at him coldly and did not react.
Wei Liao took a few steps before stopping and turning to look at him.
"You didn't stop me? Aren't you afraid I'll tell the emperor about this?"
Xiao Juan said, "If you really wanted to tell the emperor, you would have told him on the first day you returned to the capital. Why wait until now? Besides, I have nothing to hide. Tell him if you want."
Wei Liao was really helpless now.
"You're really stubborn. Alright, alright. I lost this time."
