Zhu Liling got tied with the request that Li Hua made. She couldn't ignore it either, so she acknowledged her request. "Fine. If any such thing gets reported to me, then, I will punish the person."
Li Hua bowed and thanked her for accepting her request.
"The tea ceremony ends here. Everyone may dismiss," Zhu Liling announced. She stood up and left the patio first, followed by the others. Eunuch Lianying glanced at both Lóng Wei and Li Hua before leaving.
Li Hua stood up and turned to look at Lóng Wei. "Why does His Highness intervene?" She asked in anger.
"It was important to intervene," Lóng Wei said and walked away. Li Hua followed him while her servants walked behind her. They stepped out of the main entrance when Lóng Wei held his hand out. Li Hua didn't hold it and stepped forward to descend the stairs. However, Lóng Wei grasped her wrist and helped her in descending the stairs.
