Zhen Su, in front of Tang Xiaobai, casually handed the letter to a guard outside the hall: "Please deliver it to the Imperial Court."
The guard looked at Tang Xiaobai somewhat nervously.
Fortunately, the Crown Princess Consort said nothing, brushed off her sleeves, and departed.
On the way back to the Eastern Palace, Tang Xiaobai recalled points from Liluo Palace and felt something was amiss.
But after thinking it over along the way, she couldn't pinpoint it.
When she returned to the Eastern Palace and mentioned it to Li Mu, speaking of the letter, Li Mu furrowed his brow and asked, "She wrote a letter right in front of you?"
Tang Xiaobai nodded, "I watched her write—"
She stopped abruptly.
Tang Xiaobai looked up, surprised, and said, "She was guarding against me?"
