"Got it, Your Majesty," Head Eunuch Li promised. He paused for a while before asking, "Your Majesty, should I keep an eye out for the people at the Palace of Accumulated Purity?"
Xuanye looked up and gazed directly at him. After thinking slightly, he ordered, "Yes, keep an eye out for them. Make sure nobody gets a chance to bully her."
Head Eunuch Li murmured something and left, his arms wrapped tightly around the thick stack of books. He didn't trust anyone else with this task. Although the Forbidden City was big, it was a walled compound, after all. Right now, its four walls served as a prison for a pair of lovebirds within, who were forbidden from seeing each other ever again. Xuanye had mentioned vaguely that he wanted to quiz Lanqi on the books in the future, but when would that day be? And when it finally came, would the both of them still be as deeply in love with each other?
