The Emperor, who had been watching her all along, heard her hiss and couldn't help but look towards her, raised an eyebrow and asked with confusion, "What's wrong?"
Why such an expression, who has bothered her? Wasn't she just praising his storytelling?

The Emperor felt something was amiss and recalled the recent behavior of his Little Concubine, coming to a stop.
