Watching him eat with such delight, the princess and the empress dowager thought all these years they had never seen Li Jun enjoy a dish with so much delight.
Believing the story he told them earlier, they didn't question him further and let him enjoy himself to the fullest. Hours later, Li June tended to the imperial affairs as he filled in some documents in the study. While he was working, a knock was heard on the door.
One of the guards guarding the imperial study informed him that one of his concubines had come to meet him.
Without an ounce of hesitation in his tone, he uttered, " Tell her to leave! "
" Yes, Your Majesty! " The guard bowed and left.
