"I... how could I harm the Noble Consort?"
"My spices? My mother taught me how to make them. How could there be a problem?"
Li Shengan coughed lightly twice.
"But your spices, at the Noble Consort's place, they are deadly poison…"
"Honored Lady Xi, my apologies... please come with us."
As he spoke, he also gave orders to his apprentice.
"Guard Lijing Pavilion well; no one is allowed to enter!"
"Yes!"
Little Zhuzi answered.
Upon arriving at the Punishment Department, Honored Lady Xi was so scared that her face went pale.
"Eunuch Li, I also gave many of my spices to Consort Yun, and there was no problem..."
"Why only the Noble Consort..."
"Eunuch Li, I've been wronged!"
With that, Honored Lady Xi started crying. Her large eyes were filled with tears, her weeping face like pear blossoms bathed in rain.
Li Shengan had no choice but to comfort her.
"If you are truly wronged, Eunuch Wei will naturally vindicate you..."
