Xue Ya, knowing the situation, instructed the eunuchs carrying the sedan chair to move quickly and steadily.

Xie Zhixing, who had come to visit her immediately after leaving court, happened to run into Yun Jiao at the same time.
She hurriedly paid her respects and got out of the sedan chair, heading straight into the palace.
"Jiaojiao."
Xie Zhixing wanted to stop her, but she didn't even turn her head to look at him.
