A young maidservant hurried into the chamber, delivering the news to Jia Li of Xianwu's arrival. In response, Court Lady Xuan swiftly directed the servants to assemble in a neat formation to extend a formal welcome to the Crown Prince.

Seated gracefully on the edge of the bed, Jia Li's eyes fixed on the chamber's entrance. As the door swung open, Xianwu entered, his eyes widening in astonishment at the meticulously organized assembly of servants and their synchronized greetings.

Cheerfully he thanked all of them for such a warm greeting. 

"The Crown Prince isn't supposed to thank us," Court Lady Xuan said while keeping her gaze low. 

In response, Xianwu said, "I have never been welcomed in such a fashion." He kept smiling and then gazed at Jia Li seated on the bed. "I think it's the time you all should leave," he said in his humble tone.
