Capítulo 496: 252 Palace Examination (two updates combined)_2

The Crown Prince would not deploy his secret guards unless it was absolutely necessary. However, he had no choice, fearing the Crown Princess might encounter some mishap inside.

He ordered his secret guards to reveal themselves.

Both guards were top-tier fighters from the palace. They were not obstructed by a simple door. In no time, they dismantled the door and moved the first cabinet blocking the entrance.

The Crown Prince promptly reached out to assist the Crown Princess.

With his help, the Crown Princess emerged from the shards of broken ink ingots on the floor.

The Crown Prince inspected her from top to bottom, anxiously asking, "Are you alright?"

The Crown Princess slightly shook her head, "I'm fine. I was just choosing some ink ingots for Xiaoqi while waiting for the sesame cakes."

Qin Chuyu could not use the palace's ink ingots as that would potentially reveal his identity.
