A few months ago, the incident of Princess Runan murdering the Prince Consort Yan Bo caused quite a stir.
Later, because Yan Bo's reputation had already been ruined, the Yan Family didn't want to further escalate the situation and temporarily shelved the "pursuit" of Princess Runan.
Despite this, Princess Runan was still under house arrest in the Princess Mansion, having lost the Emperor's favor as well as her freedom.
Li Shu did not follow the imperial entourage to the Palace, largely because of Princess Runan.
Actually, even if Li Mu had agreed immediately, Tang Xiaobai wouldn't have thought much of it.
The matter of Princess Runan seemed insignificant at the moment.
But since Li Mu respected her wishes, she still gave it serious consideration.
The Eastern Palace isn't a place for charity, and when Li Shu proposed terms, the Crown Prince didn't budge—
"Why does Your Majesty favor the Yan Family?" Tang Xiaobai asked.
