Lord Pei Xi was already in a terrible mood after Prince Qing had him write a letter of surrender.
Still fuming in his sleeping quarters, Empress Chen unexpectedly returned from Cangyun Villa and started berating him.
Pei Xi thought to himself that this madwoman had no right to scold him as if he were so useless!
Furthermore, at this moment, Empress Chen was wearing a gauze hat, her face wrapped in thick bandages, making her look like a mummy.
Lord Pei Xi stomped angrily towards Empress Chen and gave her a hard slap, harshly reprimanding, "Shut up! I don't need you meddling in my affairs! If you want to throw a tantrum, get back to your Phoenix Palace!"
