Eunuch Wu and Manbao exchanged a glance, realizing they were being summoned, and promptly went inside.
As soon as she entered, Manbao felt she had no place to stand; the floor was covered with shards of porcelain and scattered tables and chairs.
The Crown Princess sat cross-legged on a high chair, with a cup of tea beside her, and almost everything in the room, except where she sat, had been smashed by the Crown Prince.
Manbao twitched her lips, thinking, "Wow, he really smashed it thoroughly. Aren't these porcelain pieces expensive?"
The Crown Princess saw Manbao and, with a glimmer of hope in her eyes, immediately got up, paying no heed to the broken porcelain pieces on the floor. She stepped over them when possible and walked over them when not. She reached out to take Manbao's hand, smiling, "Doctor Zhou Junior is here, please have a seat."
