Chapter 344: Chapter 344: After Disguising Herself as a Man, the Rabbit Spirit Ran Away with a Baby in Her Womb 54
Thus, the two conversed back and forth, and before long, they had arrived at the Imperial Palace.
Su Zhiruan lifted the carriage curtain and looked outside to find herself at the gates of Shen Kingdom’s Imperial Palace.
Before departing, Shen Qingman had already sent soone at breakneck speed to inform the palace of their arrival. As soon as they approached the palace gates, they were imdiately allowed entry by the Imperial Guard, “Crown Prince, His Majesty has instructed you to proceed directly to Zichen Hall to et him. The Empress and the other masters are also waiting for you both there.”
“Understood, you may leave,” Shen Qingman said. Afterward, as if suddenly rembering sothing, he quickly removed a copper mirror from his waist, took off the hairpin from his head, and even hurriedly stripped off his outer garnts.
Su Zhiruan, not understanding the reason behind his actions, picked up the Peach Wood Sword that had been knocked aside and asked him, “What are you doing?”
“It’s over, it’s all over. How could I have forgotten about this,” Shen Qingman’s face was full of regret. He hurriedly stashed the removed items in a hidden compartnt of the carriage. After completing these actions, he finally found ti to respond to Su Zhiruan, “Father despises my attire as a Demon Catcher; every ti he sees in it, I get reprimanded. Father said if it happens again, he would hand over the throne to directly. I was so hasty in looking for you earlier that I completely forgot about this major blunder!”
“Are there no other clothes in the carriage?” Su Zhiruan asked with a twitch in her lips as she finished listening to his explanation. Seeing him undressed to his inner garnts, anyone who saw him now would surely misunderstand, “…Perhaps you should go and find so clothes first while I et with His Majesty.”
When Shen Qingman saw how seriously she spoke, he instantly shook his head like a bobblehead, “No, no, you don’t understand royal protocol. If you offend them, my father and mother will definitely beco suspicious, and then they will never let leave!”
“Don’t worry,” Su Zhiruan calmly lifted the curtain again, and then turned to him and said, “Since you claim that my current status is that of a Princess, favored by your father from among the commoners, I naturally don’t understand the protocol. I will manage.”
Shen Qingman bit his lip, a hint of hesitation flashing in his eyes.
Su Zhiruan was right, but he was worried nonetheless.
If she made even the slightest misstep and failed to gain recognition, then he would have to stay in this dilapidated palace, awaiting the day he would die.
That was not what he wanted. Shen Qingman’s expression beca even more serious, “Let think for a mont.”
“Crown Prince, as we approach the inner palace, please dismount from the carriage!” The coachman respectfully hopped down from the carriage to open the curtain for Su Zhiruan and Shen Qingman.
Shen Qingman looked at Su Zhiruan. She was calm and unruffled, even raising her eyebrows in response to his gaze. For so reason, he chose to trust Su Zhiruan, and finally he conceded, “You go et them, I’ll change into another set of clothes and catch up imdiately.”
“Rest assured.” Su Zhiruan stepped down from the carriage, followed by a few nannies who carefully lifted the four infants nad Spring, Sumr, Autumn, and Winter.
Having spent much ti alongside the Imperial Family, they had long since learned to read the room.
If they were not wrong, Miss Su before them was about to rise to greatness. And they, as servants, naturally needed to treat her with utmost caution and care.
Issue of heirs was sparse within the Imperial Family, yet Miss Su had given birth to quadruplets. Should the Imperial Family learn of this, they would certainly be overjoyed.
With this in mind, the four old nannies treated the four little masters and Su Zhiruan even more diligently.
As the carriage turned around to leave, only Su Zhiruan, the four infants, the four nannies, and the Chief Eunuch who erged from Zichen Palace remained on the scene.
“Oh my, you must be Miss Su, right? Is the Crown Prince not with you?” The Chief Eunuch could tell who she was with just a brief glance, and his attitude was very warm, “Co with , Miss!”
