After the ceremony, everyone returned to their homes, but Yu Niaoniao still had to enter the palace to see Empress Dowager Deng.
Xiao Juan was worried about her entering the palace alone and decided to accompany her.
The two of them walked along the long palace path.
Xiao Juan saw that Yu Niaoniao still had a straight face and asked in a low voice, "Are you still angry?"
Yu Niaoniao asked, "How can I not be angry? It's clearly all your credit. Why should you give it to others? What's the difference between them and bandits? Shameless! Too shameless!"
Xiao Juan raised his index finger and reminded her to keep her voice down.
Although there was no one in sight, this was the palace after all. What if the walls had ears?
Yu Niaoniao could only shut up, her eyes still burning.
Xiao Juan said, "Forget it, don't be angry."
Yu Niaoniao could not take this lying down. She questioned, "Did you already know about this?"
