Chapter 335

Song Jiyun was stunned.

She had not expected the Emperor to have this attitude.

But cheating was one thing.

What she now had to consider was how to make everyone believe that their family's Sacrificial Porcelain was made honestly and deserved its reputation.

Song Jiyun felt a bit of a headache coming on.

Early the next morning, Yuan Yunzhong came to pick her up.

"I'm sorry!" he said, taking advantage of a moment when the Palace Maids helping her pack were not paying attention, and gently squeezed her hand. He spoke in a low voice, "I'm late coming back!"

"It's alright," Song Jiyun said. "I thought you wouldn't be back until August."

He had returned early.

Yuan Yunzhong said, "If it weren't for the auspicious day for the Heaven Worship Ceremony being set so early, I would have hurried back ten days ago. Then you wouldn't have had to suffer here."
