When Tan Rou entered the room, the King had already woken up. His gaze was very blurry, but his voice was clear.
"What's all that noise outside?" the King asked.
Tan Rou said, "I don't know, they were already arguing when I came in."
The King then asked the chambermaid in the room, "Go see what they're arguing about. Also, where has the princess gone?"
The chambermaid dared not leave the King's side easily, so she cast a pleading look at Tan Rou. Tan Rou caught her glance and shook her head, signaling her not to go.
"They are fighting outside," Tan Rou stated plainly. "Prince Laka, Prince Busodi, and that certain Duke, I can't recall the other names."
The King's eyes widened suddenly, "Why are they fighting?"
Tan Rou said, "It's about you! Prince Busodi and the Duke want to see His Majesty the King, and Prince Laka isn't letting them see you, so they started fighting."
