The tone of Lin Zizi's words gives the Emperor an inexplicable pang of anxiety.
"No, why would I confine the Princess Consort?" He hurriedly explained, "It's just that the palace has been busy lately. Considering the Princess Consort's weak constitution, I haven't let her go out."
"And what about the Crown Prince?"
"The Crown Prince…He probably…it seems…" The Emperor faltered, catching a glimpse of Jiang Ning's composed demeanour from the corner of his eye, he hummed silently and figured something out, "I guess the two young ones must be having a quarrel."
Jiang Ning smiled faintly.
Lin Zizi looked at her, "Seventh Sister, did you have a fight with the Crown Prince?"
"Just a minor conflict, it's nothing serious. Mother, don't worry. I've come out, haven't I? I don't think the Crown Prince really meant to confine me."
"That's true. But why didn't you bring your children?"
