Yueyao handed the brocade box to An Zhichen: "Help me deliver this to Prince Duan." Yueyao did not want Prince Duan to dislike An Zhichen because of her own reasons. Prince Duan, being such a distinguished noble, could certainly affect An Zhichen's career if he casually spoke poorly of him before the Emperor.
An Zhichen hesitated a bit.
Yueyao knew what An Zhichen was concerned about: "My matters can't be hidden. Anyone who is determined to investigate can find out, so there's no need for us to hide it from Prince Duan." Even though An Zhichen said Xiang Wei managed to cover her tracks well, Yueyao didn't believe her matters could stay hidden. If you don't want people to know, don't do it yourself; she had disappeared for months and the people of the Capital City certainly had already speculated. Now they remain silent because it doesn't concern them, but once there's a conflict of interest, these individuals will likely use rumors to harm her.
