Consort Ru quickened her pace to meet him.
"Eunuch Li, what's wrong with His Majesty? Why is he in such a rage?"
When Eunuch Li looked up and saw her, he couldn't help but groan inwardly.
'What awful timing!'
"Imperial Concubine, this… this…" Eunuch Li looked awkward. "His Majesty wishes to see the Second Prince."
Consort Ru grew even more uneasy.
"Why would His Majesty suddenly summon Cheng Xuan out of the blue?"
Of course, Eunuch Li couldn't say.
Knowing she wouldn't get anything out of him, Consort Ru turned to go inside, but Eunuch Li quickly blocked her way.
"Oh, Your Highness, you shouldn't go in right now. His Majesty is in a fury!"
A muscle in Consort Ru's brow twitched. Whenever His Majesty had been angry in the past, she had always been the one to soothe his temper, the perfect, understanding companion. For Eunuch Li to dissuade her like this… 'It must mean the Emperor's anger is truly related to Cheng Xuan!'
