You were taken hostage, why pursue the Enemy's Empress?

As the sun set in the west, a carriage rattled by, casting a long shadow in the evening sun. The carriage eventually stopped at the entrance of Minister's Mansion, and Luo Ming obsequiously opened the door curtain, "Sis! We're home!"

A graceful figure emerged from the carriage and looked at the plaque hanging on the mansion gate with the words "Luo Mansion" written on it. She pursed her lips and looked hesitant.

In the meantime, two nobly dressed young scholars passed by and were surprised to see Hua Chao. "Isn't this Miss Hua Chao? She's been missing for so long. Why is she appearing at Minister's Mansion? Many literati have been waiting for her and crying out for her in these days."

"Shh... keep your voice down! I heard a rumor about Miss Hua Chao's background..."@@novelbin@@

The two scholars whispered to each other and quickly left the mansion gate.

Luo Ming cursed, "Those two are so shameless. What are they talking about behind our backs?"

Hua Chao remained indifferent, "Isn't it natural for a singer to be talked about? Lead the way."

"Sure!"

Luo Ming made a gesture of invitation and led Hua Chao into the mansion. Although the courtyard did not look luxurious, it was extremely elegant, and every plant was carefully designed and trimmed.

It was not until they arrived at the courtyard that Luo Yan, who had been waiting at the door, was seen by Hua Chao. Luo Yan greeted her excitedly, "Hua Chao, you finally decided to see Dad!"
