Fortunately, Miaopu had sharp eyes. Seeing Xiangliu carrying the Imperial Princess back to her room, she promptly cleared all the servants from the courtyard. Those two went completely wild once they started, with no regard for anyone or anything—it was simply unwatchable and unlistenable.

After nearly an hour, Anian came out of her room yawning. Seeing Miaopu standing guard by the door, she asked, "Where did Sister go? Why isn't she back yet?"
"Well... Second Royal Princess, you should go to sleep first. As for the Grand Princess, she... um... she probably won't be coming back to sleep tonight." Miaopu was naturally unused to lying, and her words came out stuttering and hesitant. Shanhu stepped out of the room, exchanged a look with Miaopu, and instantly understood. Unfortunately, Anian caught it and insisted on going over to take a look.
