The Princess took a step forward, wanting to enter.
However, a tall figure suddenly appeared in front of her.
"Princess, please stop,"
Zang Xu, the Deputy General of the Prince, was his right-hand man on the battlefield and his most capable assistant when not at war.
To her surprise, he was personally guarding the place.
"I'm just here to see if there's anything I can help with,"
The Princess was stopped but showed no displeasure.
As ever, for so many years, a calm and composed smile hung on her face, "I heard the Prince has brought a guest back. As the Princess, it is my duty to welcome her."
Zang Xu knew that the Princess indeed had no ill intentions.
It was only natural for the Princess to attend to guests who came to the Prince Residence.
"But, the Prince has ordered that no one is allowed to enter,"
Not wanting to upset the Princess, Zang Xu quickly explained, "It's just the daughter of an old friend; you shouldn't overthink it,"
