Hua Manman fell asleep after drinking her medicine.
Li Ji left the bedchamber in his wheelchair.
Si Yun gently closed the door.
Li Ji instructed her, "Take good care of Lady Hua. Come find me if anything happens."
"Yes, Your Highness."
Li Ji then took his men to Lady Li's residence.
Lady Li had just returned from seeing the Empress.
The Empress had given her a severe lecture over Lady Hua's injury.
Lady Li was deeply indignant.
'Lady Hua was the one who got hurt, so what does that have to do with me? Why should I be blamed for it?'
Lady Li hadn't dared to act out in front of the Empress. But as soon as she returned to her quarters, she violently smashed a set of teacups.
The exquisite teacups shattered into tiny pieces.
The palace maids serving inside all dropped to their knees, too terrified to even breathe.
Just then, a little eunuch ran in, flustered.
"Your Ladyship, Prince Zhao is here!"
