Chapter 173: Meeting Her Family After Four Years

Because of the long break, the banquet on the first day seemed to have ended very soon. Still, during these four hours of performances, everyone was feeling a little tired.

So as soon as the Emperor exited the banquet, everyone stood up to go back to their rooms.

Zhao Zhuang Chen was the first person to exit the banquet followed by his princess consort.

Zhao Zhang Wei stood up from his seat and, seeing this Yi Huqing also rose from her sitting position. As they stepped down from the chairs that were put on a high pedestal for the Imperial family's members, Yi Huiqing's eyebrows knitted in confusion when she saw him walking towards some other direction instead of the exit gates. 

Looking around at the still present guests, she could only follow him silently to wherever he was going. On her face there was clear reluctance to go anywhere at that moment but since her head was lowered no one could see her expression.

"Son-in-law greets Grandfather Yi."
