On the women's side, Princess Consort Ji's request to Empress Dowager Wang for a minor disturbance at her fief was conveyed by the eunuchs.
Eunuch Zhou reported back to Emperor Chu, and the latter paused, his hand clutching the wine cup, his lips curled in a subtle cold smile as he glanced at Prince Min, who was silently sipping his wine with a somewhat dejected air, a hint of mockery flashing in his eyes.
A young eunuch hurried over, and sharp-eyed Eunuch Zhou moved to the side, listened to the young eunuch's report, and then returned to Emperor Chu's side with a wave of his hand.
"Your Majesty, Imperial Physician Chen reported activity in Cell Number Three; a condemned prisoner has fainted."
Emperor Chu instantly sat upright, his eyes like an eagle's, staring at Prince Min.
Prince Min seemed to sense something and looked over, seeing Emperor Chu's eyes cold as thousand-year ice, he couldn't help but shiver, a chill rising up his back.
The Emperor's imposing presence.
