In Chen Mo's mind, a figure appeared:
Princess, Chu Yanli!
...
...
Entering the main gates of the Imperial Palace, he proceeded along the palace path into the Inner Court.
Looking at the winding red palace walls and the upturned eaves of the palaces, Chen Mo hesitated for a moment, then lifted his leg and walked in.
Even though he had spanked the princess hard on his last visit, swelling her buttocks, that could at most be considered self-defense... But he had legitimate matters to discuss today, and he figured she could distinguish between what was urgent and what was not.
Changning Pavilion was as deserted as ever, and the empty courtyard seemed somewhat desolate.
Chen Mo walked through the courtyard into the bedchamber and stood in the center of the hall, speaking loudly, "Your Highness, the Princess, I have urgent matters to discuss with you!"
His voice echoed in the empty palace hall, but no one responded for a long time.
"Not here?"
