The Emperor squinted his eyes, "Oh, is there really such a matter?"
He fell silent.
After a long while, he spoke enigmatically, "The Duke and Jiang Aiqing are only afraid of getting involved in the matter of establishing the Crown Prince."
"Enough, enough, I cannot force people against their will."
He paused, "Inform the Empress to let Miss Jiang pack her things and return home."
Eunuch Yu went out and instructed Xiao Xizi, then returned to stand in the Imperial Study Room to receive further orders.
Xiao Xizi conveyed the message at Kunning Palace, where the Empress and Nanny Xu exchanged a glance, both of them filled with shock.
Nanny Xu approached with a smile, stuffed a piece of Silver into Xiao Xizi's hand, and asked softly, "Mr. Xi, do you know why the Emperor suddenly wants Miss Jiang to return home?"
Xiao Xizi replied with a chuckle, "This, I do not know either."
"However, after the morning court today, Mr. Jiang requested to see the Emperor."
