At this moment, Xingyin also walked in and said, "These days are the funeral of aunt, so everything is kept simple, without music or dancing girls. I hope Mother will understand."
"That's only natural," said Queen Yelang.
Before Xingyin took his seat, he first went to the incense burner, ignited the spices inside, and then summoned the kitchen to serve the dishes.
The Western Regions produce a lot of spices, so the fragrance is particularly cheap. Every household in the Western Regions burns incense, so Xingyin's behavior was not strange.
Although Princess Deti paid attention, with the Empress present, her vigilance was not very strong. Perhaps she did not place her guard against the incense.
Before the dishes were served, Queen Yelang once more spoke of the death of Princess Deti's parents, feeling sympathetic towards her.
