The news that Xie Jue almost got poisoned reached the Capital City, coinciding with the arrival of the envoy at Mudan City. Upon seeing the news, Xie Xun went into a rage, "Those audacious Sannan people, they have the gall to poison my Second Brother. No way, I will teach them a lesson!"
Furious, he wrote a secret letter to the General, demanding reinforcement at the border, to show signs of attacking Sannan. When Fengyu came to deliver his meal, she happened upon Xie Xun's outburst. The Chief Eunuch gently reminded Fengyu to be careful, though he knew his warning was unnecessary; no matter how angry the Emperor was, he wouldn't lash out at the Empress.
Seeing Fengyu, Xie Xun indeed calmed down a bit. Fengyu was also aware of Xie Jue being poisoned; she was upset too and understood Xie Xun would be worried and anxious, hence she brought him the meal to soothe him.
"What are you doing?"
