"This servant is on it,"
Eunuch Li heeded the order and started to handle the task, but the Emperor, after some thought, felt it was not sufficient and called him back, "Also, bestow the Night Pearl from the South Sea upon Lady Shen."
"Understood." Eunuch Li took the command, carrying many rewards to the Hehuan Hall.
The Emperor continued to pace in the Imperial Study Room, sighing, "The handling of this matter! When the Empress returns and learns of this, given her temperament, I fear she won't let it go easily."
Just thinking about the Empress gave the Emperor a headache.
Suddenly, he stopped walking and instructed, "When the Empress returns, tell her I am ill."
The young eunuch nodded respectfully, "As you command."
