Since these maidservants dared to block her way, it indicated that Yu Youhan was definitely in the palace at this moment.
This wasn't her first time coming to the Frozen Sky Palace. Familiar with the layout inside, she searched around but saw no one. She then followed the long corridor and arrived at the door of the bedroom in the rear hall.
She reached out to push it, only to find the latch was fastened from inside.
Knock, knock, knock—
She raised her hand to rap on the door.
After waiting for a moment, there was no response.
The Empress cleared her throat and said, "Yu Youhan, I know you're in there. I'm not here to cause trouble but to discuss something important with you—it's about Chen Mo..."
It was quite a while before Yu Youhan's voice finally rang out, "I'm not available right now, you should go back first..."
The tone was somewhat trembling, breathless, sounding very strange, almost like someone riding on a bumpy horseback.
