"I live in the palace, and being seen by others may cause disapproval; let's wait a little longer," Xiangning said with a smile. "When His Majesty grants me a new identity, I'll come to stay with my sister in the palace for a few days."
"That sounds good," Zuo Xiangrong smiled and patted Zuo Xiangning's hand, "You should stay with Marquis Jingyuan for now, and if there's anything, let Marquis Jingyuan speak to His Majesty for you."
"Indeed, Marquis Jingyuan helped Xiangning back when he was still Marquis Zhongyuan's Heir, and now that he's become Marquis Jingyuan, he has given Xiangning such great help," His Majesty said with a laugh. "It seems I must give some thought on what to reward Marquis Jingyuan with."
Marquis Zhongyuan's Heir?
The guess in Zuo Xiangning's heart had been voiced so unexpectedly by His Majesty, it was as if she'd been struck on the head by a cudgel, nearly causing her to faint.
