Long Rui shook his head and said, "No, the Fourth Prince hasn't led troops into battle nor been involved in court politics, so he probably doesn't know how quickly the news would spread. Everyone in the Capital already knows."
Xuexue: "Does Prince mean that the Emperor knows about this too?"
Long Rui nodded and said, "When the Emperor learned about it, he was so furious that he nearly sent the Empress to the Cold Palace. In the end, the Ministers joined forces to protect her, and the Emperor eventually relented. However, the Empress's power to manage the Harem was revoked, and the Emperor handed over control to Noble Consort Wang."
Xuexue was surprised: "Such a major event happened, yet why haven't I heard you talk about it?"
Long Rui reached out and tapped her nose, smiling: "My dear is always angry. When you see your husband, you avoid him. How would I have the chance to tell you?"
Xuexue playfully protested: "Stop it, the Master is here!"
