"How dare you!"
"Which palace do you belong to? How dare you occupy Consort Yun's pavilion? Unbelievable!"
A harsh, grating voice like a squawking duck rang out.
Xia Ruqing was startled; her brush trembled, and drops of ink fell onto the paper, ruining the pristine sheet.
Zi Yue fumed. He's just a eunuch! No matter how much power he's gained, he has no right to behave so rudely in front of the masters!
Xiao Xizi scrambled to his feet to reprimand him, but Xia Ruqing hurriedly stopped him, setting down her brush and stepping out of the pavilion.
As expected! Consort Yun was standing not far away.
Xia Ruqing walked up slowly and paid her respects to Consort Yun according to protocol.
"This servant greets Your Highness, Consort Yun!"
