The estate was already aware of the matter.
No one had yet taken the incident to make a fuss over it, however.
But on the following day, as Ye Zao was strolling in the garden with Charcoal Ball, she encountered Princess Gao.
Ye Zao had intended to avoid her, but as Charcoal Ball was still running around, she did not hide and waited for Princess Gao to approach and curtseyed, "Servant pays respects to Princess Gao."
Princess Gao hummed in acknowledgment, "Ah, it is Lady Ye. Indeed, a beauty. No wonder you had the courage to show displeasure to Master."
Princess Gao, while holding a maid's hand, also adjusted the pearl hairpin at her temple, displaying a certain disdain.
Ye Zao's eyebrows lightly rose. So this was Princess Gao's brazen nature, to address her directly as Lady Ye?
"Servant dare not claim such, Princess Gao herself is the beauty. Servant is but a frail willow." Ye Zao said.
