Xie Zhixing glanced at it: "Has Attendant Lady Xi's Jade Token not been hung back yet?"
"In reply to the Emperor, the Empress said that Attendant Lady Xi has not properly learned the rules yet. She has already sent Nanny Mao to re-educate her; before she masters the rules, her Jade Token has been removed."
Upon hearing this, Xie Zhixing remembered the matter.
After pondering for a moment, he still decided to give the Empress this face: "Hmm, you may go."
Even though he gave face, Xie Zhixing did not intend to be manipulated. Since they didn't want him to visit Attendant Lady Xi, he might as well handle state affairs. The expansion of Yan Chi's territory by his ancestors has provided him with more matters to deal with, which he finds more interesting than summoning concubines.
