Empress Dowager Shan carefully examined him, only to realize he was a eunuch, and her expression turned somewhat peculiar and guarded, "Did my son send you?"
The eunuch was not very old, looking around fifteen or sixteen, but due to special reasons, eunuchs appeared older than average when old, yet younger when young.
So despite his youthful appearance, he was actually nineteen. He smiled gently at Empress Dowager Shan and said, "Don't worry, Madam. The King of Beihai is now under General Zhao's command. Though the Prince doesn't know us, we remain loyal to him."
He continued, "We are under orders from the General to infiltrate the palace. If anything unexpected happens, we must ensure the safety of the Prince and Madam."
The eunuch quickly extinguished the candle, lowered his voice, and said, "Please trust me, Madam, and follow me. We will do our utmost to get you out of the city, leaving the Prince without any worries."
