A few palace maids knelt before the Fourth Prince, begging desperately for mercy.
The Old Palace Maid came out and saw the scene, her brow unconsciously furrowing. This was the Empress Dowager's palace, since when was it the Fourth Prince's turn to act wantonly here?
"What are you all doing? Get up and go back to your duties." The Old Palace Maid's voice rang out, cold and unyielding.
In the Imperial Palace, the Empress Dowager was akin to the Grand Emperor, needing to heed no one. Her personal maids naturally wouldn't regard ordinary people.
Even a prince, so what? They still had to live while considering the Empress Dowager's mood.
The palace maids turned and saw it was Nanny Li, the Empress Dowager's personal maid. They immediately breathed a sigh of relief, bowed their heads, and retreated.
Recognizing who had arrived, the Fourth Prince dared not act unruly.
