"Men," the Emperor's face was solemn as he sternly shouted, "Invite that palace maid from the Imperial Medicine Preparation Room. I have something to ask her!"
"Your subordinate obeys!" Having heard what was said, a eunuch accepted the command and left.
A short period of time later, a palace maid walked over in haste under the eunuch's guidance and bowed when she stood before the Emperor. "Your servant pays her respects to the Emperor."
"Has Consort Shu gone to the Imperial Medicine Preparation Room before?" The Emperor's eyes were grave and stern as he asked emotionlessly.
The palace maid slowly raised and replied. "Consort Shu did indeed come to the imperial kitchen and asked if the decoction I was currently preparing for Miss Yun was for the Empress's consumption. At that time, I had already informed Consort Shu that this decoction was for Lady Jiafei."
