"No need to worry, let's go to the Imperial Palace and ask around; there shouldn't be any problem!"

Things having reached this point, Lin Fan could only comfort Yunluo this way.

"That's right, Xiaonu is very clever, she definitely won't have any trouble!"

Yunluo began to mutter to herself.

Lin Fan smiled faintly, then took Yunluo into his arms to comfort her.

The Great Ming, Great Yuan, and Great Song were tightly adjacent, so the immortal crane arrived at the capital very quickly.

"Crane, go straight to the Forbidden City!"

Lin Fan patted the immortal crane's back, signaling it to keep flying, ignoring the crowd below that was in an uproar at the sight of the crane.

"Who goes there? This is the Forbidden City, halt!"

The imperial guards discovered Lin Fan's party arriving on the crane and hurriedly shouted to stop them, but Lin Fan turned a deaf ear, and the crane flew straight inside.

The guards hurriedly followed toward the Golden Throne Hall; they feared Lin Fan's party were assassins, so they had to go and protect the Emperor.

"Who dares to trespass into my Great Ming Imperial Palace?"

The Zhengde Emperor walked out of the Golden Throne Hall surrounded by his officials, staring at Lin Fan who had arrived riding the crane.

"Imperial Brother, it's me! It's Yunluo!"

Yunluo's head poked out from behind Lin Fan, and she immediately shouted loudly.

"Yunluo, it's actually you? Where on earth did you run off to?"

The immortal crane landed slowly, and the imperial guards immediately came over to surround Lin Fan and the others, but they were shouted away by the Emperor; he believed Yunluo would not harm him.

"Imperial Brother, after I snuck out of the palace, I met the one I love, so I got married, and this is my husband!"

Yunluo introduced Lin Fan to the Zhengde Emperor with a beaming smile.

"Absurd! You are a Princess; I turned a blind eye to you sneaking out of the palace, but you actually dared to get married so recklessly? Do you have any regard for me and Mother Empress at all?"

The Zhengde Emperor was almost angered to death. Yunluo was a dignified Princess, yet she had gotten married inexplicably, and he, the Emperor, knew nothing about it. If this got out, wouldn't it be a joke?

"Imperial Brother, be a bit more polite when speaking to me; my husband has a bad temper!"

Yunluo rolled her big eyes continuously at this moment, starting to dig a hole for the Zhengde Emperor.

"A joke! You speak as if someone else has a good temper. Tell me, what is this man's identity!"

The Zhengde Emperor was so angry he laughed. Yunluo's husband has a bad temper? He, the Emperor, has an even worse temper!

"Him? Why, he is the world-renowned Master Tianji, Lin Fan!"

Yunluo said with a deliberately innocent look.

"What? It's Master Tianji!"

Before the Zhengde Emperor could react, the civil and military officials behind him were already whispering and discussing.

"Master Tianji? Even if he is Master Tianji, so what? Master Tianji cannot go without a dowry! My precious sister is getting married, my Great Ming Dynasty must prepare gold, silver, jewelry, pearls, agate, porcelain, coral, and silk as a dowry!"

The Zhengde Emperor used the toughest words to say the most cowardly things.

"The Emperor is wise!"

The civil and military officials behind him did not feel ashamed; instead, they thought the Zhengde Emperor was doing the right thing. This was Master Tianji, a ruthless man who could stand against a million troops alone. Being able to take a fancy to Princess Yunluo was the Great Ming Dynasty's honor.

"Alright, stop with these superficial things. My husband lacks for nothing. I'm going to see Mother Empress. Imperial Brother, you're holding a morning court session, right? Then continue! Wait, that's not right, what time is it, and you're still holding a morning court session?"

Yunluo waved her hand. The things her Imperial Brother mentioned were all worldly possessions to Lin Fan; he wouldn't care. However, it was a rare thing for her Imperial Brother to be holding a court session until now.

"It's just some trivial matters. You go to the inner palace and find Mother Empress!"

The Zhengde Emperor had no intention of explaining, just letting Yunluo go to the inner palace herself.

With the reputation of Master Tianji here, even though there was a rule that men were not allowed to enter the inner palace, everyone tacitly chose not to mention it.

Everyone selectively ignored this matter; after all, this was Master Tianji, who would dare say no to him?

"Let's go!"

Lin Fan had no interest in court affairs, so he took Yunluo and the others and left.

"Princess!"

Just as Lin Fan's party was heading toward the Empress Dowager's sleeping quarters, a call stopped Yunluo.

"Xiaonu, Xiaonu, you're still alive, that's great!"

Hearing this familiar voice, Yunluo was stunned for a moment, then happily looked toward the direction the voice came from, and sure enough, she saw her personal maid, Xiaonu.

"What's wrong, Princess? Should Xiaonu be dead?"

Xiaonu was a bit confused. What was going on? She hadn't seen the Princess for so long, why did the Princess curse her to die as soon as they met?

"Xiaonu, didn't you leave the palace back then? Or did you come back yourself after not finding me outside?"

Yunluo hurriedly grabbed Xiaonu's hand and asked.

"I was discovered when I disguised myself as the Princess back then, and later when the Princess went missing, I was almost killed by the Emperor in his rage. It was thanks to the Empress Dowager who protected me!"
