C81 (2/2)

On the second day, the Prince Zhan did not delay any further and entered the palace in the carriage. Inside the carriage, the Prince Zhan thought to bring Nangong Waner out of the city to see the scenery again, and while she was still happy, he mentioned to her that he would rush to the border tomorrow.

However, Prince Zhan did not expect that once he entered the palace, Eunuch Hai, who was in the empress dowager's palace, would make a trip to Prince Zhan's Mansion.

”Eunuch, the prince entered the palace early in the morning and is no longer in the manor.” When the butler of the manor saw that Eunuch Hai had come to the manor again today, he thought that he was looking for the Prince Zhan and thus said politely.

I'm here on behalf of the empress dowager to pass a message to the big miss of Assistant Minister’s Residence, Nangong Waner. I heard that the big miss of Assistant Minister’s Residence is currently living in the Prince Zhan's Mansion, so I came to the prince's mansion to look for her. Even though he was facing the steward of the estate, even if he was a popular figure in front of the empress dowager, Eunuch Hai's tone towards the steward did not contain the slightest bit of disrespect.

Even though the butler of the Duke Palace was suspicious as to why the empress dowager was looking for Nangong Waner, he didn't show it on his face at all and sent someone to call Nangong Waner over.

Not long later, Liu Hong, who was in Nangong Waner's courtyard, came to the front hall naturally and gracefully, bowed to Eunuch Hai, then turned to the Duke Palace's butler and said, ”Miss is still sleeping, I'm afraid you won't be able to wake up for a while.”

The steward of the Duke's Mansion looked at Eunuch Hai with a somewhat awkward expression. ”Eunuch Hai, it's still early and the Miss Nangong is still asleep. Look …” The steward's tone was natural, so Eunuch Hai naturally understood that the steward meant to pass the message to him after a while.

Eunuch Hai, as a popular person by the empress dowager's side, had always thought highly of him. A young lady of the Assistant Minister’s Residence actually dared to be impudent in front of him, and was a little displeased just thinking about it. He said in a deep voice, ”I came here on the orders of the empress dowager to pass on a message to the Miss Nangong.

The Duke Palace butler looked a little awkward, and looked towards Liu Hong, not knowing how to reply. Liu Hong did not look at Eunuch Hai, but looked at the butler of the Duke Palace instead, and spoke in a tone that was neither humble nor humble, as if it was normal, ”The Prince Zhan's Mansion is very strict, and we do not dare to cross it. This time, before we left the palace, Prince Zhan had specially come to the other courtyard to remind us not to disturb Miss Qing Meng, let us discuss this after he returns to the mansion.”

Eunuch Hai's face turned unsightly as he was rendered speechless.

”Eunuch Hai, you're a popular person in the empress dowager's palace, so you must be very busy. If it wasn't a particularly private matter, you might as well pass on the empress dowager's decree to us first. We'll pass it on to you on our behalf. What do you think?”

Eunuch Hai knew that the butler had given him an opportunity to step down, so he said, ”That's fine. When the empress dowager heard that the Assistant Minister’s Residence's talents and looks were all outstanding, she was especially interested in them and called me over to pass on a message, ordering her to come to the palace when it's time to see the empress dowager.”

Liu Hong and the Duke Palace's butler couldn't help but look at each other when they heard Eunuch Hai's words. The Duke Palace's butler looked at Eunuch Hai and said very politely, ”I've troubled Eunuch Hai to come specially.

After a few more courteous words, the steward of the manor finally coaxed Eunuch Hai into a happy mood. Only then did he return to the palace with a smile.

The butler thought for a moment and then spoke up to ask Liu Hong, ”It's only been two hours, I think you should get the Miss Nangong to clean up. When you enter the palace, don't be rude to the empress dowager.”

Liu Hong frowned, ”Can someone bring a letter to the palace first?”

The steward also agreed, ”Night Protector is at the palace today. I called for him to find an excuse to go to the palace and notify the prince.”
