“Well, so it seems the other ladies had no issues. Tell Seonhwa she needn’t concern herself with the Crown Prince.”
“But....”
Even if Hwayeong wasn’t bothered, Siyeong certainly was—and Seonhwa likely would be too.
Just as Siyeong was about to ask what kinds of questions the Crown Prince had asked, a low voice came from outside the door.
“Is anyone there?”
The commanding yet refined tone of a woman’s voice drew their attention to the door.
Startled by the unexpected visitor, Hwayeong glanced between Siyeong and Sohwa before answering.
“What is it?”
“I wish to enter for a moment.”
The unfamiliar voice prompted Hwayeong to grant entry.
Moments later, the door opened, and a woman in a blue court dress stepped inside.
“I must ask for a moment of your time.”
“For what reason?”
“There is someone who wishes to see you.”
‘Someone from the palace wants to meet ME?‘
Intrigued, Hwayeong questioned further.
“Who’s asking for me?”
