Princess Yongle, being of distinguished status and favored by both the Empress Dowager and the Emperor, had always moved freely within the palace. She could hardly bear Lin Yue's cautious words and immediately said, "What is there to be afraid of entering? Regardless of your status, you are a guest of mine, Princess Yongle. I'd like to see who would dare to trouble you once you're inside, so don't worry about all that nonsense!"
"This..." Lin Yue still hesitated.
"What 'this'? Let's settle it then. Since you've come to the Capital City, of course, you should see the Imperial Palace. It's the perfect opportunity to invite you to my palace to sit for a while and see what my living quarters are like." Princess Yongle grew even more convinced that her idea was splendid. She knew she wouldn't be able to leave the palace for some time, so inviting Lin Yue to the palace would give her company.
