Children

Li Shuling hesitated for a moment. "Looking at the princess's appearance, it seems she got frightened. Sometimes children can be like this. When familiar people and things suddenly disappear, they might fuss and cry, keep things in their hearts without saying them aloud, stay absentminded and ignore others..."

Xie Ning's heart trembled slightly. "I understand what Master Li means."

Everyone was well aware of the root cause of Princess Yuyao's behavior. All of this was for what? Wasn't it all because of the Pure Consort? With her mother suddenly gone and having left the Yan'ning Palace, that's how the child ended up like this. By making a fuss about wanting to see the Eldest Prince, she might genuinely believe that the Eldest Prince, like the Pure Consort, would vanish forever once he left.
