Yan Wang's face darkened, and he turned and left. As soon as he stepped out the door, Lianxiang blocked his way and placed two bowls of ginger soup in front of him.
“Your Highness, it is late at night and the dew is heavy. Lianxiang is worried that Your Highness and Consort Yu will catch a cold, so she has specially prepared ginger soup. Please drink it before you go to rest.”
