Then he stood there and said to the little palace maid, "Stand up, go and cook the dumplings and take them to the young lady."
The young palace maid was terrified and tried to stand up several times but failed.
Xu Zhi raised his hand to press between his eyebrows, then walked to the stove, added another bowl of water, and then asked someone to continue the fire.
Once the water boils, Ahri will arrive.
