Before Cui Yun could leave the Imperial Palace, the news of Jin Zhong's accident already reached Emperor He's ears.
Outside the palace, it stirred up a huge commotion.
"The young man from the Zou Family is so spoiled he threw firecrackers into the crowd from the second floor while dining."
"Oh dear, did it injure anyone?"
"It did more than injure people. Horses passing by got spooked and out of control, and the coachmen couldn't calm them down, knocking over several stalls."
"With people coming and going on the street, how could they avoid it? In the pushing and shoving, one person lost their balance, causing a group of people to fall down, thankfully General Jin arrived just in time. If not for him intervening, several lives might have been lost."
People listened with fear and trepidation.
"Is General Jin alright?"
