Grand Empress Dowager was informed by her spy how General Lee went to see Wangjie right after meeting the Crown Prince. "Prince Hu Qiang had to go and stop General Lee from punishing Prince Wangjie," the spy added.
Grand Empress Dowager knew something like that would happen, but she didn't know Lee Shimin's love for his son would suddenly arise in such a way.
"Leave," Grand Empress Dowager said. The spy bowed and disappeared in the shadows. She left her seat and headed to see Wangjie. Court Lady Donggu followed her closely and the two shortly arrived there.
Grand Empress Dowager as entered the chamber glanced at the few servants and asked them to leave. Both Hu Qiang and Wangjie bowed in respect in front of her.
