Ming Huiqing led the Eunuch into her chamber, which was lit by some scented candles, she closed the door behind them and guided him towards her bed.
It was a small chamber in the eye of the king, but quite large when compared to her former living conditions.
"Be quick about what you want to say, the Emperor has asked me to bring these to him and will be angry if I delay any longer." The Eunuch said in whispers, the records resting on his laps.
Ming Huiqing eyed the documents then quickly diverted her gaze to the jar of liquor in her quarters.
"How...how did you get liquor?!" The question naturally spilled out of the Eunuch's lips, it was a taboo for servants and Eunuchs to drink, talk less of a woman under house arrest.
