As Liang Ji came out of the sedan chair, she respectfully greeted, "Empress Dowager."
Then she saluted Chen Mo.
The light from the lantern was softer than that of the torches, casting a glow on Liang Ji's elegant, delicate face, making her look even more dignified and beautiful.
The Empress Dowager turned around and gave Chen Mo a slight smile, "King Wei, please."
"Empress Dowager, please." Chen Mo adhered strictly to the etiquette.
Chen Mo followed Liang Ji into the house, while Chen Mo's personal soldiers, who followed him, were stopped by Liang Ji's palace maids.
Chen Mo turned back and said, "You wait outside."
"Understood."
...
This was quite strange.
If it were business, they could discuss it in the hall after dismissing the servants upon entering the house. Yet, Liang Ji led Chen Mo to a side room.
The side room was brightly lit, and palace maids had long been waiting outside.
Chen Mo raised an eyebrow, knowing this had been prearranged.
