Don't Be Afraid!

...

In front of the study, Gu Xiaonan and Feng Yuanxi were stopped by palace servants.

"Miss Gu, His Majesty has summoned you alone; the others cannot enter."

The two children immediately held onto Gu Qingluan's hands tightly.

Gu Qingluan smiled faintly and said, "Very well, please convey my apologies to His Majesty."

With that, she turned and left with her son.

Eunuch Qin, witnessing this, was alarmed. "Miss Gu, you mustn't! If you refuse to meet His Majesty's summons, it could be seen as defying his order!"

Gu Qingluan paid him no mind.

She had arrived at the door, and if she were to leave now, she might lose her head if His Majesty became displeased.

Eunuch Qin hurriedly advised, "Please wait a moment, Miss Gu. Allow me to inform His Majesty of the situation. Could you please wait a short while?"

Gu Qingluan turned back with a faint smile and said, "Thank you for your trouble, Eunuch."
