"Did I not command you to remain in the Qilin Quarter?!" Hao Jun’s voice thundered as he stormed into the chamber, fury radiating from his rigid posture. Reports of you near the Jed Palace gardens, accompanied by another man, had ignited a storm within the Emperor. you flinched, attempting to explain that it was merely fresh air and a cousin, but Hao Jun’s jealousy blinded him.
