Xia Houzhe stepped out of the bedroom and was immediately stopped by two eunuchs.
"Step aside, I want to see my imperial brother," Xia Houzhe shouted angrily.
The two eunuchs said expressionlessly, "It's late at night. We will inform the Emperor tomorrow. Please return to your chamber, Prince."
Xia Houzhe said, "I have important matters to report to my imperial brother concerning the safety of Great Qing. Can you bear the consequences if they are delayed?"
"Please return, Prince." The two remained unmoved.
Xia Houzhe's face darkened, "Let's see if you really dare to stop me."
He took two steps forward, only to be stopped by someone, who apologized before pressing on two acupoints on his body.
Xia Houzhe fell softly, was caught by another, and was carried back to the bedroom.
Xia Houzhe's face was filled with shock and anger, "You, you dare!"
The two eunuchs placed him back on the bed, covered him with the quilt again, and left without a word.
Xia Houzhe: "..."
