She sobbed bitterly as she held his hand kneading it, it still had some warmth

The king who had wanted to comfort her back-stepped as he restrained his hands and withdrew them back.

"I will find a cure for him." He walked out of the room feeling pained.

He leaned against the wall outside the door, the concubine could still see his shadow. He clutched his chest roughly.

"My son wouldn't have succumbed to this condition if it weren't for that stupid position.. my son is a victim in all this..."

" How could they do this to him? He doesn't deserve this.."

She bitterly cried as she held her son's hand, she had managed to give birth to only one son after much difficult.

The soldiers stomped into the Queen's chamber and dragged her out roughly while tugging her hands.

"What do you think you are doing?" Her commanding voice questioned them but they still dragged outside impolitely.

"Leave me alone.."

"Stop.. stop it.. can't I know my crime?"

She shouted as she struggled to get free but she wasn't that strong enough than the soldiers.

This entire situation caught her off guard.

They dragged her down into the dungeon cell and locked her in.

"What's the meaning of this?"

"Get me out.. get me out of here.."

"Get me out.."

She was yelling at her highest vocal but no one paid heed to her drama.

A few minutes later the first prince was dragged over and was locked inside the same dungeon as his mother.

"Son.. what.. what did you do?"

"What did I do? Mother, what did you do? Why were you doing things without consulting me, why would you poison the seventh prince.."

" I didn't do anything honestly.."

She vouched seriously, the prince who was standing didn't believe her words.

"Mother, I remember correctly that you have the worms in your clan.. where is the antidote?"

" Antidote? I didn't do anything son.. believe me.."

" Why should I believe you?" He bent down and gripped her neck tightly.

She struggled as she tried to pry his hands away but being a woman, how can she be stronger than her son who was a man.

Seeing her mother struggling to breathe he loosened his grip and took a step back.

"You are the sole reason that everything is going against my plans.."

" Mother you are definitely a curse to my life.. I never asked you to get involved in my matters.."

" Cough, cough, cough.." she gasped for air, he was really an animal and ruthless.

Could she blame him? No.. she had raised an animal.. tears fell down her cheeks.

" I have always been doing everything at your interest.. now since things happened without my involvement, you are also blaming me?"

" You better explain clearly what happened.. don't drag me into your mess.."

" So you want me to take this fault and claim that I was the one who did it?"

The mother and son argued back and forth harshly and were on each other's neck.

In the forest Aiguo had finished preparing lunch so he served them.

"Miss.. we will be leaving here tomorrow morning.." An Tang was the first one to speak out, he knew Aiguo was softhearted and could relay such kind of news.please visit

"Aaahh? So soon?" She lightly frowned feeling sad, finally; she will be left all alone.

"But don't worry, if we have time we will come over and visit you all the time.." Aiguo tried comforting her.

" How about we go together, I will join you guys.." An Tang had wanted to decline her but couldn't bring himself to after seeing those pitiful eyes.

"All right then.." he accepted as she began eating merrily.

Aiguo would look at her once in a while and wondered if it was easy to get out of here.

Wang Lin who has been riding the horse carriage suddenly felt the cold seeping through his body.

He suddenly pulled the reigns stopping the horses, he felt some parts of his turning rigid.

"Wang Jun, ride it for a while." His voice was hoarse as his entire face began paling.

He sat back down in the carriage as he began feeling some parts of his body freezing and accompanied with mild pains.

"Brother.. what's the matter?" Wang Yike worriedly inquired seeing his brother in terrible condition over sudden.

"Nothing.." he closed his eyes and began channeling the energy into clearing the cold that was spreading back to his datian.

It wasn't an easy procedure, he was sweating all over as he tightened his teeth gritting.

Veins had popped out and they were visible, you could tell he was undergoing through something painful.

Wang Yike nervously looked at him as he meditated.

Wang Jun rode the horses further into the desert as they left the kingdom territory behind.

In the Ming Kingdom, Wu Xue and Xie were busy practicing until now they were done cooking something.

"Is this what we are only capable of cooking?" Wu Xue looked at the stuff that was burnt inside the bowls.

She dumped it into the waste bin before getting good food from the cooks.

"Let's not come here again.." this was a total waste of time and foodstuffs.

"But I didn't see you quit in other activities, you pressed on even after getting several wrong attempts.." Xie looked at her curiously.

" It isn't that important.. we just need to hire someone who can fulfill those duties and cook some delicious food for us.." she carried the tray and sat down to eat.

Xie also followed suit and joined her as they ate silently.

In the Qing Kingdom, King Wang woke up after having fainted.

He sat up looking around to register what was happening in his mind, he had blanked out

"All the soldiers died.."

"All the soldiers died.."

That was the only thing that rang through his mind, but they felt like dreams.

He raised his head to look at the soldiers that were surrounding him.

"Did they say that the soldiers died?" He inquired again, whatever was going through his mind seemed to be some frigments of memories.

The soldiers nervously nodded their heads looking at him sneakily.

"They died? How now?" He still couldn't comprehend the kind of situation that the kingdom will be subjected into once the war breaks out.

"They were all killed.."

"All the ten thousand soldiers died? Did you confirm it?" His hands shook as he tried to calm himself down and tightened them up into a fist.

"Yes.."

He closed his eyes and tried to regulate his breathing.. he aged in a matter of hours, his earlier glossy skin was pale as wrinkles formed through his face.

"Leave me alone." He laid down on bed, he didn't have much energy to think of the oncoming crisis.
