The consort grabbed onto Ming Huiqing's fingers, about to dispense her justice on her, only to be interrupted by Chan Zian.
The soldier drew out his sword to the consort's men, drawing all the attention to himself. The consort looked at the unwanted guest, only to end up feeling mesmerized by his strikingly good features.
Infact, she remembered him from the night of the banquet, as the one who was quick on his feet to save the crown prince. The consort had heard that Prince Caishen took said soldier off the General's hands as his personal guard.
Which made her wonder what he was doing so far away from the prince's quarters.
"You! State your business here!" The consort announced, placing the punishment on hold.
Ming Huiqing looked over her shoulder with expectant eyes to see the face of her savior. Little did she expect to see the fake Chan son, who was once classmates with her brother, Treasury director Ming.
