"But now, the Empress is missing, and the Imperial Palace needs someone to take charge!"
"Having me is enough; the Princess is in poor health and not fit for labor."
"Wang Cai, are you trying to take control of the harem and then seize power while the Emperor and Empress are away?" Su Ya thought that saying this would certainly frighten him.
Who would have thought he would still wear a smiling face.
"I only follow the Emperor's orders. The Emperor asked me to obey the Empress's commands, so I am loyal only to the Emperor and the Empress. Princess, no matter what you say, I cannot defy the Empress's orders."
Glancing coldly at her two palace maids, he said calmly, "The Princess needs to bathe and change her clothes; what are you standing there for?"
The two palace maids, frightened, immediately began to carry Su Ya away. She struggled fiercely, screamed, and cursed, but she, being a noblewoman, was no match for the two maids accustomed to heavy work.
