In the Court

Gu Chaoyan nodded. She had met the Queen before, so she was not at all nervous. The Queen had been living in the court for decades, yet she was a very easygoing person who held no grudge towards Gu Chaoyan.

Weiyang Palace was the Queen's bedroom, it was magnificent and imposing.

The servants were busy with different stuff, with their heads lowered and back half-bent, since noble ladies were seen everywhere here.

Gu Chaoyan did not like the concept of different classes, but there was nothing she could do about it. So they just walked into Weiyang Palace.

When Aunt Nan saw Lord Huai and Gu Chaoyan, she smiled brightly. "Greetings, Lord Huai and Lady Chaoyan!"

After she greeted them, Aunt Nan smiled friendly, "She is in the room resting, I will go and tell her about your visit."

Zhou Huaijin nodded, defaultly approving of Aunt Nan's proposal.

He and Gu Chaoyan took a seat down in the outer chamber.
