章節 1122: Someplace they'd never think of

Prince Yi's branch couldn't be considered part of the imperial family's direct lineage. The title holder, even if there truly was something amiss with him, as long as Your Majesty was willing to give the nod, it wouldn't be a big deal.

"The Crown Princess is right; this old servant also can't figure it out," Mrs. She shook her head, "However, it has been said that Prince Yi has been in Shui State for a long time, and is naturally not as close to His Majesty as when in the capital, so it's not surprising that he has his concerns."

Su Xinyi felt there was more to it than met the eye, that there were aspects they hadn't considered.

Observing the Crown Princess's expression, Mrs. She thought for a moment before speaking, "Crown Princess, when this old servant was coming back from the inner court, I overheard a little palace maid from Yuanhui Palace unintentionally mentioning that someone from the Shu Family had sought an audience with the Empress."

The Shu Family?
