When Ye Xiwen appeared again, he was already within Princess Tianqing's manor. Unlike the insignificant little princess she had once been, Princess Tianqing had now become the heir apparent of Darkness Country. Her status was wholly different, and the gates of her residence were packed with carriages and horses. The people who had come to pay their respects alone formed a long queue.
Before long, Princess Tianqing would move into the Eastern Palace and become half the master of this country. In the not-too-distant future, she would even become its sole master. By then, it would not be so easy to seek an audience with her again.
