Jiao was picking some flowers outside to decorate the halls a bit as it was too gloomy for her taste. But when she looked up, she almost dropped the basket she was holding. It was good that the palace discipline imbued in her bones saved her from the embarrassment.

She bowed while thinking that her encounters with Wangye would always be flabbergasting moments.

Long Xu Le completely passed her by. But turned back all of a sudden when she was near the door.

"He's still in his room?"

Jiao thought she could exhale already but still replied. "Answering her Highness, the young master hasn't gone out in five days."

Five days?

The King frowned. "None of you thought of reporting?"

Jiao was taken aback. Who would they report it to? Their young master was only a mei ren and not a concubine.

Long Xu Le opened her mouth, realizing her mistake. She waved her hand in dismissal and entered the residence. She should find that other maid. What was her name?

The little maid panicked. No one announced Wangye's presence!

King Wan Li was greeted by the other two ranked maids.

Why does this place look deserted? Or was this the normal amount of servants for a mei ren?

"JuZi."

The oldest of the three was taken aback. She never knew the King remembered her name.

"Yes, your Grace."

"You know better and could have reported this directly to Zhongqing. Next time this happens, you will be the one bearing the consequences."

In that small space (small compared to Wangye's usual taste), time seemed to stop. All eyes turned to Wan Li Wang.

Who was Feng Yanyan and why was he so important?

JuZi's brows jumped. Although she understood the significance of the Feng family to her Highness, it looked like she still underestimated Feng Yanyan's closeness to Wangye.

The spell broke when Cheng Li's bright voice was heard. "Allow this servant to take over all communications with this courtyard then."

Long Xu Le gave a glance of appreciation to the little eunuch.

Arriving in front of the fool's bedroom, her hand rested on the handle. Before she could forcefully open it, she remembered this was still a Beauty.

Chastity was important to them.

But King Wan Li might have forgotten an important fact that she had seen him in an undressed state and she once barged into young master Feng's room and touched his hand before.

Her Highness sighed and turned to the palace maids.

"Fetch him."

The three girls looked like they received amnesty from these two words alone. If not for the proper decorum, they probably would have run inside the room.

Wan Li Wang ended up waiting for a quarter of an hour.

What came out was a stiff faced Feng Yanyan.

"What brought Wangye here?" He asked after the greeting.

Without missing a beat, her Highness replied with another question. "What happened to you?"

Long Xu Le's eyes flickered to the maid, JuZi. The gaze was a mixture of blame and wariness.
