Xiaoming, after having his breakfast left with Eunuch Lishi to the market.
"Your Royal Highness, today Miss Cha is coming to the palace. Her Majesty will get angry for defying her orders," Eunuch Lishi presented the concerns before the Crown Prince.
"This is more important for me," Xiaoming said and looked out of the carriage's window.
"I may get punished, Your Royal Highness." Eunuch Lishi knew that Queen Zhu Liling would ask to punish him with floggings. Also, if the matter goes to the King, then no one could save Xiaoming from his wrath.
"I won't let you get punished," Xiaoming said. His words comforted Eunuch Lishi.
"But what about the Crown Prince? The Prime Minister will surely inform His Majesty if the Crown Prince fails to meet Miss Cha today. His Majesty may punish the Crown Prince," Eunuch Lishi anxiously said.
