Chapter 530 Royal Hunting Ground (2)_1
Du Meiren exclaimed in surprise and delight, "What a calculating little girl you are! I never expected that such a tiny person could harbor such intricate schemes. Even your Aunt didn’t see this coming!"
Cai Wei calmly ate from a bowl of purple rice porridge under her Aunt’s admiring gaze.
If she were to use this attire to run away, she would definitely not stand out. At least, no one would notice her because of her dress.
Her words had left Anxiang and Hongrui reeling, starting to seriously question their own appearances. Hongrui even considered going back to change her attire and return in the state of an unrivalled beauty. Unfortunately, there wasn’t enough time, so she had to regretfully give it up.
At the quarter hour of Shi Chen, it was time to embark. The eunuchs from the internal affairs department came to fetch Cai Wei. She was carried in a sedan chair to the north corner gate of the palace, with Hongrui and Anxiang carrying their bundles behind.
By this time, the day was already bright and clear. As Cai Wei descended from the sedan chair, a palace maid who looked like an officer was waiting there.

"The servant pays her respects to Princess An Le. May your Highness be blessed."
Cai Wei laughingly said, "You have never seen me before, how do you know I’m An Le?"
The lady officer said respectfully, "The servant was fortunate enough to have seen you at the Shangsi Festival Banquet once, and your Highness’s enchanting appearance left such an unforgettable impression that she naturally remembered."
An official from the Internal Affairs Department bowed and said, "Aunt Qingqiu, since you recognize Princess Anle, I don’t need to introduce her to you. I have some official business to attend to, so I will leave Princess Anle in your care."
Aunt Qingqiu replied, "Rest assured, I will serve the princess with all my heart!"
