Discussion.

The lady was impressed by his composure and asked, "Why do you seek audience with the council of Xena?" 

She did not waste time asking stupid and obvious questions, like, why was Shi Lang in this building and how did he get there. The queen was smart enough to deduce things and since the person, who sneaked inside the headquarters of the council had such a calm temperament and was able to speak his purpose in front of her. It meant that he was here on an urgent basis. 

Shi Lang replied, "It is about the administrator of the outlanders." 

The lady in the white frowned and said, "Why should I believe you, after all, you are an outlander yourself."
