Lei Wanxi reached the Palace with Zhou Xuweng. The gatekeepers bowed upon seeing him.
"Throw him in prison," Lei Wanxi ordered a soldier, who was lighting the torch bearers.
"Your Highness, please show mercy on me," Zhou Xuweng again pleaded with him.
Lei Wanxi smiled and hit his forehead using the fan. "That's on my Fifth Brother, who is the Emperor of the Empire," He pronounced and then gazed at the soldier, gesturing to him to take him away. The soldier came forward and took Zhou Xuweng to the prison house.
Lei Wanxi opened the fan and started to fan himself. He walked in, towards the Fu Imperial Gates. He turned towards the Northern Palace to report Sheng Li about the incident. Reaching outside the quarters of the Emperor and the Empress, he ordered the maidservant to tell the Emperor that he wanted to meet him.
