Upon hearing this, Song Yuanbao fell into silence once again.
Wen Wan was about to speak again when Duan Yan, who was guarding outside, suddenly ran in and said, "Madam, Master has returned."
Wen Wan asked in surprise, "It's still early, why has Master returned already?"
Duan Yan glanced at his young master and whispered, "It seems the Crown Prince returned with him."
Wen Wan was startled and was about to get up to greet them when footsteps already sounded from outside.
Before long, Song Wei lifted the curtain and entered. Following him was a young man in a purple robe, with a jade belt and splendid boots. His black hair was smooth, his handsome face serious and meticulous. It was none other than Zhao Xi, the Eldest Prince, who was soon to be crowned Crown Prince.
"Your Highness." Wen Wan bowed, then turned her gaze to Song Wei, "Husband, why did you come back so early today?"
