Two days later, Jiang Yuanbai took Jiang Li to the palace.
Originally, Jiang Li had planned to accompany Jiang Yuanbai when he resigned from his official post at Emperor Hongxiao's court, but Jiang Yuanbai insisted she handle the matters related to the Duke Residence first. Jiang Li did not know how Jiang Yuanbai had managed things, nor what he had said to Emperor Hongxiao. When they set out, Jiang Yuanbai only told her that Eunuch Su would take her to see Emperor Hongxiao, as for what to say and do after meeting with the Emperor, that would be up to Jiang Li herself.
