One moment he's enjoying what's honestly pretty acceptable tea, and the next he's plunged into Lili's memory, and then... then his blood boils. It's very clear what he's seeing here--he's seeing the disciplining of an unruly child by a father in a position of authority who simply seems to not care. It's all too familiar to him, and the taste of it is bitter on his tongue; he swallows once, tightly, expression flat and unhappy.

He's aware enough to know that he has something much the same--and much the same, he has troubles with the same thing, even if he hates to admit it. But even so...
Lili didn't deserve that. Lili has always been a paragon of someone who cared so much for her lands, so purely. Why would she be punished for that?

Drink some water, before you lose your lunch.
