Standing at the entrance, Li Yuzong saw a graceful figure approaching from the end of the path.
Smiling, he hurried into the hall. "Holy Emperor, Miss Ji is here," Li Yuzong announced happily.
Emperor Wu Su raised his head, his dark eyes gazing toward the hall's entrance.
Ji Qingwu walked in front, a Maid carrying a food box behind her. The moment she stepped into Zhaoyang Hall, she saw the Emperor's gloomy expression.
Her steps faltered. The joyful excitement she had felt on her way here vanished in an instant.
'With an expression like that, something major must have happened.'
Ji Qingwu first exchanged a look with Li Yuzong, hoping to get some hint from the trusted Eunuch Li.
She took a few steps forward and said, "Eunuch Li, this is the ginseng soup the Empress Dowager asked me to deliver."
Ji Qingwu had the Maid from the Empress Dowager's palace take out the soup and hand it to Li Yuzong for inspection first.
