He was dressed in casual clothes, but his dignified bearing was no less than that of people today.
Pei Bo was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly called out, "Your Highness!"
The eunuch was furious: "Are all the Pei family members unruly? No wonder they dare to harass people in the street."
Pei Bo hurriedly knelt down and cried out, "Your Highness, I'm innocent!"
The eunuch scolded, "Go to Sheng'an Prefecture to voice your grievances. What are you shouting at His Highness for?"

Pei Huanzhao and Pei Huanxu are just bragging, do they think everyone else is blind?
However, it was still quite unexpected that Pei Huanxu would do something like this and harass Miss Lü.
