Zhu Liling looked at the message that she had written for Li Hua and smiled. She put it in the envelope and then told Mi Yao to leave that in Li Hua's chamber.
"Be careful of your surroundings," Zhu Liling advised Mi Yao, who bowed and left for Li Hua's chamber.
At that moment, a maidservant came inside and bowed. "Your Majesty, the Crown Prince has sent the message. His Royal Highness and the other two princes have safely reached Qijiang Province," the maidservant informed. Zhu Liling smiled to hear that and quickly took out the precious jade ring from her index finger.
"Here, take it," the Queen said and the maidservant thanked her for her benevolent gift. She was happy to receive such a present and left the chamber.
