Before Consort Zhao found an excuse to beat him nearly to death and feed him poisoned chicken soup, Lu Qing had met this person once in Consort Zhao's palace.
It happened during a festival, when Emperor Jin permitted the parents and blood relatives of all palace concubines to visit the palace, making the harem exceptionally lively that day.
Consort Zhao was visited by Duke Yan and Duchess Yan, accompanied by a person dressed in the clothes of a family servant.
Consort Zhao always ignored Lu Qing, and Duke Yan never gave him any favors, so when they arrived, the sensible old housekeeper quickly led Lu Qing away to not offend the nobles.
As he was leaving with the old housekeeper, Lu Qing saw the servant following Duke Yan.
The man's ordinary face had eyes like wolves in the dark, reflecting a grim and eerie light.
Lu Qing was extremely scared, leaving a deep impression on him.
