The Noble Consort's voice trembled with fear as she shouted, "Someone come, protect His Majesty, quickly protect His Majesty!"
Soon, the Imperial Guard, having heard the call, rushed over in time, and Pei Huaian entered from outside, dressed in dark clothes, exuding an unparalleled authority.
"I pay my respects to Father Emperor!"
"The Fifth Prince?" The Noble Consort Pin looked at the person kneeling on one knee in surprise.
"Your son has urgent matters to report to Father Emperor. I had no choice but to interrupt Father Emperor's meal. The guards refused to announce me, and out of desperation, I had to resort to this measure. I am willing to accept punishment and hope Father Emperor will decree my sentence."
"Ha..." Pei Huaian scoffed coldly. "Then why did this prince wait at the entrance for a long time without seeing you send for me?"
"This, this old servant truly did not know!"
