"Please, Empress Dowager, investigate thoroughly!" Lan Ye finished speaking, then knelt and bowed his head to the ground, forehead touching the floor, not daring to rise.
Noble Lady Jing lowered her head and walked out from behind Beauty Qing, kneeling in the position to the front and side of Lan Ye: "This concubine greets the Empress Dowager, greets the Emperor."
"Rise," the Empress Dowager said in a deep voice.
Noble Lady Jing straightened her body: "Responding to Empress Dowager, this concubine heard someone in the garden today discussing Lady Li, the words spoken were really..."
After pausing for a while, Noble Lady Jing continued, "This concubine is somewhat worried, so I asked Lan Ye to inquire."
