The guards, hidden, protected the Emperor while the carriers departed.
Chief Eunuch Li was delighted to return to his bedroom and taste the chrysanthemum honey tea alone.

He also needed to inquire what type of fragrance Huang Hao had used today.
The provisions for the Empress and concubines in the palace were all custom-purchased.
