Chapter 1103: Chapter 1103: For the Sake of the Elder Princess

"Sister-in-law, this courtyard, it looks so much like your family’s courtyard," Sui Ziyou had only seen Lin Caisang’s home once, but when compared with the courtyard before her eyes, there was a striking six to seven parts resemblance.

Although the houses in the countryside are all quite similar, different places have their own customs and habits and thereby the houses they build are also different.

This Jianan City and Yejun are halfway across the Liang Kingdom from each other, and yet, they could construct such similar houses; that is quite rare indeed. Moreover, this is even in the evening; if it were daytime, surely the similarities would be even more apparent?

Upon hearing this, Lin Caisang halted in her steps and glanced sideways at Sui Ziyou.

If Sui Ziyou hadn’t mentioned it, she would have thought that the courtyard of the Elder Princess’ residence was just a bit familiar.

But now that Sui Ziyou mentioned it, she looked carefully at the courtyard before her, and indeed, it seemed to closely resemble the Lin family’s home, though there were also differences.

How could she say it, ever since she had crossed over, she had made some changes to the Lin family’s residence and the courtyard before her closely resembled the Lin family’s house from before.

The Elder Princess truly is an enigmatic figure.

She resumed her steps, following the nanny further inside.

Inside the study, the Elder Princess was lying on a reclining chair, her eyes slightly closed.

"Nanny Bai, what’s happened to the Elder Princess?" she turned her head to ask Nanny Bai.

"To reply to Miss Lin, the princess suffered a scare a few days ago and has been in low spirits recently, even consuming less food than usual," Nanny Bai replied.

"I was quite worried about the princess; now that Miss Lin is here, I can also feel at ease. The princess tends to get along well with Miss Lin. I suppose upon seeing Miss Lin, the princess will be delighted as well."

She thought to herself, it was fortuitous that Lin Caisang had come. To let the mother and daughter talk for a while might well cheer up the Elder Princess, and perhaps then everything would be fine.

Having heard Nanny Bai, Lin Caisang then realised that the servants of the Princess’ Mansion had not yet informed the Elder Princess of her arrival.

No wonder the Elder Princess was still asleep.

The people of the Elder Princess’ Mansion really had some nerve, to not even announce her presence and simply bring her here directly.

"Nanny, although it may be inappropriate for me to say this, there is something I must remind you of," she said, looking towards Nanny Bai.

"Please speak, Miss Lin."

"In the future, no matter who enters the Elder Princess’ Mansion, irrespective of their identity, it is necessary to be cautious and thoroughly vet them," Lin Caisang cautioned Nanny Bai.

"I understand," Nanny Bai nodded, glancing at the Elder Princess.

"This is Miss Lin, after all, not someone ordinary."

If it weren’t for Lin Caisang’s sake, who else could so easily enter the Elder Princess’ Mansion?

"Regardless of differences, people from the Illusion Continent practice spiritual techniques; it’s very possible they could disguise themselves as someone else or... Nanny Bai, look at me, I am wearing a mask.

Do you recognize only this mask on my face? If someone with ill-intent were to wear a mask similar to mine and come to the door, wouldn’t you also welcome them in as you did me, leading them directly to the Elder Princess?

Some things are better prevented early on rather than regretting one’s lack of careful handling after the fact, and by then, it would be too late for regrets.

These words may be unpleasant to hear, but they are all for the Elder Princess’ sake," she lowered her voice, continuing to speak to Nanny Bai.
