After everything was over, Kong Rui put away the boundary bead and put the little lion and the little phoenix into her storage space. Just as she was about to leave, there was a commotion outside the palace.

"For her to summon Steward Shen at this time, there must be something important!" Another voice echoed. "The queen hasn't seen anyone in our hall in a long time!"
The two voices sounded closer as they approached.
Kong Rui immediately raised the Yin-Yang Umbrella and hid in a corner of the palace.
