Inner Palace Powers

Jian Guozhi and Xue Yu-Yan were in front of Empress Wei who was seated on the floor mattress. She threw a paper towards Jian. "Read what Sheng Li has sent to me!" Weng Wei said. 

Jian picked the paper and read it out. "Be ready to get punished for your crimes. I will even punish your soul." 

"The Crown Prince has sent a threatening message," Xue Yu-Yan stated. "Your majesty, you were confident that they both would die even before reaching the Palace but nothing happened to them. Although a few assassins attacked them, we do not know who was behind all that attack," Xue Yu-Yan confusedly said. 

"Jian, check the forest region. The assassins are hidden there. Bring Feng Lui here. He was the one who assured me that he would kill them but see what happened," Weng Wei tempestuously pronounced.
