After dinner, Zhilao Mi went to the Western Palace to go out to meet Huo Jin, making sure no one would see her. From the Western Palace, she sneaked out of the palace by negotiating a wall. Her face was covered with a veiled hat. Hastening her steps, she reached the house where Huo Jin was living for a year. She knocked at the door and looked around.
When no response came from inside, she knocked once more. 'Did they catch him?' she frowned but then she heard the creak. Huo Jin had opened the door for her. She quickly stepped inside and closed the door behind her.
"Why are you here?" Huo Jin went towards the table and sat on the chair. Zhilao Mi removed the hat from her head and glared at him.
"Do you even know what has happened in the Palace?" Zhilao Mi queried him.
