"I do not want anyone to get punished, your majesty. I should have informed you regarding this. Forgive me for that," Ying Lili proclaimed and bowed her head. Sheng Li grimaced and put his hand down. "She is too kind to see what kind of danger she was going to fall," Sheng Li thought as he glanced at her.
"Is the crown prince agreeing with the crown princess's decision?" Empress Wei asked. Sheng Li smiled and gave a nod.
"The crown princess has shown her kindness on Consort Xue," pronounced Sheng Li. "We both shall take our leave then. Please send away this worker," Sheng Li told the empress. Empress Wei permitted them.
"Let's go," Sheng Li told Ying Lili and left the meeting room. Ying Lili bowed her head and left behind the crown prince. Sheng Li started walking towards Zhenzhu Inn, which confused Ying Lili. Xing-Fu and court lady Xu, with a few maidservants, kept following them.
