章節 1005: At the East Palace

Upon learning that the renowned Editor Shao from the Hanlin Academy had arrived with his wife, the Crown Prince was taken aback.

After a moment of contemplation, he instructed them to be brought in.

During an imperial court session, his father had mentioned that if Editor Shao encountered any difficulties, he could seek assistance from him or the princes. Since they were here, it would be inappropriate not to meet them.

Qiao Xuan and Shao Yunduan followed a young eunuch through a long corridor and several courtyards, finally arriving at a small, exquisitely adorned parlor.

Seated on the main chair in the hall was a middle-aged man donning a ginger-colored round dragon collar robe. His eyes exuded gentleness, elegance, and nobility. It was evident that he was the crown prince. Shao Yunduan promptly approached and performed a kowtow.

The Crown Prince smiled and raised his hand in a gentle gesture. "Rise. Have a seat."

"Thank you, Crown Prince!"
