Xu Zifan arrived at the residence before noon. When he found the palanquin outside the residence, he rushed in to see Li Hua.
Instead of being happy, Xu Zifan was worried.
"Why did you come out of the palace without informing me?" He questioned her.
"Commander Huang Xi has accompanied me, Elder Brother. Also, I had important work," Li Hua said.
"What kind of important work did you have outside the palace?" Xu Zifan squinted his eyes in inquisitiveness.
"I wanted to meet General Hei and have a conversation with him in private. It was impossible to do that in the palace, so I had to rush here," Li Hua briefed him. Feng Lao told Zifan that he would explain him later the rest of the matter.
"Could Commander Huang Xi and Feng Lao please give us some privacy?" Li Hua urged them. They left, and Huang Xi closed the doors behind them.
