The couple put in a great deal of effort to persuade Lu Yanqing to finally get out of bed and, escorted by the household guards, head to the Imperial College.
Princess Changping stood at the main gate, watching the distant silhouette of the carriage, her expression somewhat dazed.
"Are you going to the palace?" came Lu Xingzhou's voice from behind.
The Eldest Princess nodded, "Actually, I was hoping the Old Marquis could go with me."
"Back then, no matter how much we pleaded with him, even Ah Yin knelt before him as a princess, yet he remained indifferent. How could he possibly be willing to see the Empress Dowager now?"
The Eldest Princess lowered her eyes, saying nothing.
The Empress Dowager had strongly opposed her union with Lu Xingzhou, and the root cause lay with the Old Marquis.
This was discovered by Lu Xingzhou.
Before the Empress Dowager was sent to the palace through the selection process, she had a childhood sweetheart, who is now the Old Marquis.
