"Empress?!"
He Yuzhi stood dumbfounded.
The woman before her wore a purple pleated long dress, revealing a section of white slender calf and pink bare feet. Her ink-colored hair was tied with a golden hairpin, her exquisitely beautiful face flawless like a precious jade, with a distant and commanding aura in her brows.
"Lady Chen, we meet again," Yu Youhan nodded and said.
"This humble servant pays respect to Her Majesty the Consort!"
He Yuzhi snapped back to her senses and promptly tried to kneel and bow.
"No need for formalities." Yu Youhan waved her sleeve lightly, helping her up, and said, "Last time we agreed that you should come to the palace whenever you have time, but why haven't you come to see me?"
"This..."
He Yuzhi smiled sheepishly and said, "The empress is busy with affairs, managing endless tasks, I truly dare not disturb."
It's wise to be self-aware.
