Yu Wenquan said, "How dare you hit her?"
Chu Ruoyan replied, "I casually picked up something and threw it at her—neck."
Aunt Hui's face was already gloomy, and hearing this, her expression turned even grimmer.
Yu Wenquan suddenly understood something and said, "The neck? You hit her neck with something?"
"Yes."
Chu Ruoyan immediately nodded, then glanced at the doors of Liangyi Hall, and said to Eunuch Yu, "Please bring the item in, Eunuch."
At this point, Eunuch Yu dared not act without Yu Wenquan's approval. He glanced at Yu Wenquan, and seeing that the Emperor nodded slightly, he immediately turned and went out. Outside the door of Liangyi Hall, the Chief Palace Maid Panqing, who came with Chu Ruoyan, stood trembling. Despite her fear, she held something in her hands. Eunuch Yu quickly took it from her and returned to the hall, presenting it to Yu Wenquan.
It was the lid of the food box, already broken into two halves.
