Yesterday, Mo Yan wrote a letter informing Xiao Ruiyuan that she intended to visit Chu Heng at the Prince's Mansion. Upon receiving the letter, Xiao Ruiyuan immediately reported this to Chu Heng.
Chu Heng knew that Mo Yan would not visit him in person unless it was something important, so he still managed to squeeze half a day's time out of his busy official schedule.
As Mo Yan had informed them beforehand, the gatekeeper checked her identity and then politely escorted her to the main hall of the Prince's Mansion.
Having been to the Imperial palace, Mo Yan, who didn't glance around as she followed the guard, felt that the Prince's Mansion covered a vast area. With pavilions every five steps and towers every ten, its corridors meandered elegantly, with a wealth of rooms like a honeycomb or swirls of water, embodying grandeur without losing refinement—it was like a miniature version of the Imperial palace.
