Li Mao also hurriedly walked to Prime Minister Lu's side. He bowed deeply towards the Eldest Princess's carriage and, taking advantage of the moment when he was bent over with his eyes lowered, said softly, "The Eldest Princess has come out unscathed. It seems that the situation in the palace has been settled."
Prime Minister Lu did not respond, but Li Mao quietly speculated in his heart; he wondered whether this time the Princess of Zhen had succeeded in protecting the emperor or had gained merit by supporting the dragon throne.
Wei Zhong, who was driving the carriage, turned back and spoke to the Eldest Princess inside the carriage.
The Eldest Princess, with her eyes closed, moved the Buddha Beads hidden in her sleeves. Her voice could not hide her exhaustion. "No need to stop. Master Tan's carriage is right behind us. Let Master Tan explain to the officials. We are going back to the mansion."
