"You mean to say, Xiangning returned to the capital with you?" The King of Chu's surprise was written all over his face, even more so than when he saw Lingxiao.
"Yes, she came back to the capital with me. Because of her current identity, it's inconvenient for her to return to the Zuo Residence. I wanted to ask if you could arrange a meeting for her with the Princess Consort of Chu?"
"Since it's not convenient for her to return to the Zuo Residence, she might as well stay at the Chu King's Mansion," the King of Chu said, a bit too eagerly. "Where is she? I'll go and fetch her right now."
"Your current status is rather special, and there are too many people watching the Chu King's Mansion," Lingxiao said with a light smile. "She's temporarily staying in a small courtyard of mine."
"She's staying in your courtyard?" the King of Chu repeated, looking at Lingxiao. "That's fine, then I'll go back and inform her elder sister, and take her there myself. Give me the address."
