章 238: The Fox has his work cut out for him

The Queen Consort was called Han Guilan, and the Third Princess Ru Yumei. Introductions made, Chu Yun decided to put something to the test.

"I'm sure her Highness the Queen Consort and the Third Princess must be exhausted from the journey," he gestured for two maidservants to come forward, who approached the two humans with their heads bowed, "perhaps you'd like to rest for a moment in your rooms?"

The Queen Consort smiled pleasantly. "Room, if it wouldn't be too much an imposition," she said sparing a look towards the Third Princess. "I'm sure things are done differently in Zui, but since my daughter is still an unmarried woman I'd like us to room together."

So the Queen Consort was controlling, if nothing else. 

It remained to be seen if the Third Princess' warning was legitimate, but for now it seemed her mother didn't intend to let her out of her sight.
