"Someone, protect the carriage, protect the carriage..."

Li Xu, sitting upright on the imperial couch, looked around at the full room of royal family members and Palace Attendants, and scoffed, "What's wrong, have all of your eyes gone blind?"
"The Emperor..."
"Imperial Mother!" Li Xu raised his voice, his eyes coldly fixed on the old lady in front of him, "In broad daylight, in this clear world, would you really believe such outlandish claims from a demonic being?"
