Zhao Yao returned back to the palace feeling angrier than ever. She had found out a lot of things about the ancestral lands they wanted. The late emperor had watched as a low official stole his brother's land just because he wanted to keep him on his side. Xing Ming came into power and did the same thing. He was no less than his wicked father. Immortality. If immortality was what they were gunning for, she would never allow them to get what they desired. Even if it meant burning all the ancestral lands. Returning back to her manor, Zhao Yao closed the door looking around. It was her first time being back to her manor in many months. All her life she had lived in the manor because she was hiding from Dai Chan's enemies. Why did she have to do that? All these years, shs had called in her enemy her brother. Even when he was evil and heartless. Xing Ming and all the rest of the royal family was her enemy. Tying a black veil over her face, Zhao Yao tightened the knot making sure that it w

Wu Huan and Zhao Yao stood facing each other and none of them moved from the spot. Wu Huan wanted to meet Dai Chan, although Zhao Yao had no idea why, she had a bad feeling about the entire thing. They had been very careful for some days after Xing Ming got angry. If Dai Chan was found with Wu Huan, things would automatically become worse. “Why do you want to meet her? Forgive me but I don't think that would be possible. Sister Dai has a lot of things going on in the palace. It's not convenient.” Zhao Yao said. “She is the Noble Consort. I know she is busy. However it's very important. Princess Zhao Yao, I beg of you to do me this favor." Wu Huan said before leaving. Zhao Yao watched Wu Huan leaving and she couldn't help but wonder what he wanted to talk to Dai Chan about. Just as she was about to leave, Zhao Yao bumped hard into someone. “Ouch!” Zhao Yao said as she rubbed her forehead before looking up. Just by how broad his chest was, Zhao Yao could already tell who it was. Ga

The words of question from Wu Huan made Dai Chan speechless . This was the last thing she had expected that he would ask. The look on her face was enough to give her away. “I really hope that you will tell me where my sister is." Wu Huan said. " I cannot tell you that. Not right now." Dai Chan said. " That means you really. You really did kidnap my sister. How could you take my sister from me because I wanted to leave the brothel?” Wu Huan asked. “Who told you that I kidnapped your sister? Was it Yu Bai?" Dai Chan asked as her eyes narrowed. She was sure it was Yu Bai. “It doesn't matter who told me. Your words and the look on your face has told me exactly all I need to know. Where is she? What did you do with my sister?" Wu Huan asked angrily as he reached out to hold Dai Chan's hand dragging her closer to him. “Wu Huan, release me. Have you gone mad? I am the royal Noble Consort." Dai Chan said as she glanced around checking no one was watching them. “Tell me where my sister

Staring at the manor he had just come out of, Wu Huan got lost in thought. How was he supposed to tell Zhi Hao the truth? At first their relationship seemed wrong because she was the empress. Now, she was his sister. Sighing to himself, Wu Huan returned back to the manor only to see Xiang Jun alone in the manor. “Where is Zhi Hao?” Wu Huan asked as he entered looking around. “Brother Zhi? He isn't here. Why? Are you looking for him? I can go and get him.” Xiang Jun said standing up. “No need. I was just asking.” Wu Huan said nervously as he turned back to look at the gate. “You look pale, brother Wu. Is there a problem?” Xiang Jun asked making Wu Huan turn around. “Is Brother Song here?" Wu Huan asked. " Brother Song? Yes. He is in his room.” Xiang Jun said watching as Wu Huan passed him heading to Song and Yin Xue Yue's courtyard. Meanwhile, Song Huo was in his room sitting down. It was rare for him to be at home instead of going to the brothel. Their master had not come to g

The entire palace became full and many people came for the wedding. Dai Chan who was with Zhao Yao, had no choice but to leave her after her maid had come searching for her. Leaving with her maid, Dai Chan arrived at the emperor's palace where they were holding the wedding. All the officials from both Zhou and Chu had arrived for the wedding had were busy flocking round the crown prince and the emperor. This was what Dai Chan was afraid of. She and her brother were the children of the one and only empress of Chu. Her parents may not have been close but they had taken care of them very well. The problem was the concubines. “Congratulations." Dai Chan heard the officials from Chu say to her brother as they drank wine together. Catching her brother's gaze, Dai Chan signaled him not to drink too much. Even though she didn't know her brother's reasons for marrying Zhao Yao, Zhao Yao was going to be his wife. Her brother had no choice but to take care of her till the day he dies. The crow
