Her Precious Son

"This matter will stay in the inner court and the decision will be taken by us. I hope the Crown Prince will not intervene in this, because he also knows that his powers are limited to the outer palace and court," proclaimed Weng Wei. 

Lei Wanxi entered, followed by the three chefs and several maidservants and servers who were appointed for the work. They all bowed before the Empress. 

Lei Wanxi lifted his head and asked about the incident. Consort Ju Fen narrated the entire incident to him. 

"You will be punished since you were also with the Crown Princess at that time. The servants will be punished too but the mistakes from your and Crown Princess's end were not expected," Weng Wei announced. 

"Your majesty, Brother Wanxi was there for a short period of time. He has nothing to do with this. Kindly send him away," Ying Lili requested.
