Zu Huan stood with his hands clasped behind his back, listening to Ye Shaohua's voice, which made him involuntarily shiver and shrink his neck.
Others might not be aware, but he knew very well that the last person who tested her patience... now couldn't even find their own family home.
It seemed that the chief steward of the inner affairs within the Crown Prince's Palace had heard some noise, and upon seeing Ye Shaohua, immediately invited her in.
"Chief steward, what punishment is there for disrespecting the Crown Prince?" Ye Shaohua retracted her hand and leisurely wiped her fingers with the handkerchief Zu Huan passed to her.
"The crime of flagrant treason."
Ye Shaohua seemed quite satisfied, "Just that."
Having said that, she led Zu Huan inside.
The chief steward, who did not spare words even for the Third Prince, treated Ye Shaohua with the utmost respect and courtesy, which surprised the observing ministers.
