The emperor's heart sorrows.

Zhan Yanhui who had just managed to drop Yi Huan in his palace didn't dare return to the emperor's palace after what happened so she returned to her palace dejectedly. She sat down absentmindedly as all her good mood had disappeared so she laid on the bed in the company of Xue Li who seemed to share her mistress's bad mood. She had been previously been embarrassed with what she had seen earlier in the emperor's room but now it seemed that the news she had brought had caused the problem between her mistress and the emperor. She felt very guilty so she spoke up first. "Mistress, it's all my fault.."

Zhan Yanhui already understood her thoughts and stopped her midway as she replied. "Xue Li, this.has nothing to do with you. I am sure with time, His Majesty will understand my decision."
