THE RISE OF LIMING TRUTH AND LIES
Wu Huan laughed as he sat down placing his hand on the table. They wanted him to save the same person that had fooled him. Although he couldn't blame Zhi Hao. He had done the same thing and even wanted to take his place. It was all because he couldn't remember what had happened before. “Im not going back to that palace anymore. What happens to them is none of my business." Wu Huan said crossing his arms together. “None of your business? I thought that Zhi Hao had been your friend. Are you going to allow him to get into trouble? What of Han Ling? Han Ling is still in Song Huo's hands. That's what he's using to threaten Zhi Hao." The head of the crime department said. “No one forced them to rebel. That was all their doing. You can just call it karma." Wu Huan said. " Karma? Wu Huan. I thought you wanted justice. Do you know what justice means? Punishing everyone without having any bias. Since you forced the late emperor to his death, you can no longer stop in your quest for revenge.
THE RISE OF LIMING WU HUAN'S PLAN
Wu Huan and Zhi Hao stood on the roof of one of the houses in the capital. In the past, they had only stayed there whenever they wanted to have fun or drink. It was in those rare times that they had been honest with each other. Maybe after that, they had never spoken the truth to each other after that. How did each of them know? That the other had been saying the truth? Because they had drank to faint that day. “What did you want to meet for?" Zhi Hao asked as he stood behind Wu Huan looking down at the capital street. “Why?” Wu Huan asked in a low voice startling Zhi Hao who expected Wu Huan to say something else. “What?” Zhi Hao asked. “I asked you why? I know that you wanted the throne for your family. You wanted revenge on Xing Ming because of what he did to your sister. I can understand all of them because I would have done the same thing if I was in your position however, I want to ask you. What is keeping you with Song Huo right now? Your family? Are you sure that you are n
THE RISE OF LIMING UNEXPECTED
Trying to stand up, Song Huo stretched his hand towards Dai Chan as if he could touch her. Moving against the table, Song Huo staggered only realizing just then that he was a little bit drunk. Standing to his feet immediately, Song Huo walked round the table standing straight. “Is it really?” Song Huo asked watching as Wu Huan nodded his head. “Yes. It's your sister. Your beloved sister." Wu Huan said. " Song Huo, return everyone that you have imprisoned. Let me go Song Huo.” Dai Chan said moving towards the edge of the rooftop making Song Huo sober. “Fine. You are pregnant yet you want to jump from a rooftop. What if something bad happens to you and your baby?” Song Huo asked. “The baby's father is dead. You killed him remember?" Dai Chan said shaking her head while she sighed using one of her hands to rub over her stomach. “Is that why? Is that why you are threatening me with your baby? You are my only family." Song Huo said making Wu Huan realize for sure Song Huo wasn't well

Few hours later, Wu Huan woke up feeling sore all over as he felt himself moving shakily. Opening his eyes, Wu Huan immediately didn't feel so good groaning as Song Huo carried him on his back. While Song Huo carried Wu Huan, Zhao Yao looked after Dai Chan helping her as they walked down on their feets. Although they didn't have much time and kept on being chased, Song Huo didn't give up as he carried Wu Huan. “They are close." Zhao Yao said as they walked faster. Every time they moved in carriages to they would always think that the distance was little. Most of the time, they wouldn't even look outside the window now, they were being chased, they finally understood what their servants suffered when they had to follow them on foot. Walking as quickly as they could, Zhao Yao turned back every few seconds to see how far they were. In order not to be seen by them, they decided to walk through the bushes instead of following the other road. Dropping Wu Huan down, Song Huo watched as Wu
THE RISE OF LIMING BAIT
Song Huo stood confused watching as Dai Chan left the room going outside. After she had left, Song Huo turned to Master Lim who was busy grinding the herbs that he had brought back. “Go and stay with her. Please." Song Huo said to Zhao Yao squeezing her hand to signal her to leave. Nodding her head, Zhao Yao left Song Huo with Master Lim heading outside. Looking back, Song Huo made sure Zhao Yao had left before staring at Master Lim. “What did you say to her? I told you not to say anything, didn't I?” Song Huo asked. “I just helped you. If I don't tell her the truth, it would be easy for her to continue blaming you. At least she should be able to share the guilt fifty-fifty with you." Master Lim said. " I never had a problem with taking all the guilt. I didn't!” Song Huo screamed making Master Lim to turn back. .“Stop shouting. Do you know where you are? I am trying to save your friend so instead of shouting, go and sit down.” Master Lim said glaring at Song Huo which made him s
THE RISE OF LIMING BAIT(2)
While the others lined up waiting to leave the capital gate, Song Huo dragged Master Lim's hand taking him to an alley so they could talk. When they were sure no one was watching, Master Lim dragged his hand away sighing as he waited for Song Huo to explain what he meant. “What do you mean I should help you? I have already helped you. My helping box is empty." Master Lim said. " Master, you know magic. You can take us out.” Song Huo said smiling as he watched Master Lim glare at him. “Magic? You want me to use my magic to help you leave the capital? Have you gone mad?” Master Lim asked. “Your magic is far stronger than Duke Fenghao's magic. There is no way he would be able to spot us with your help." Song Huo said. " As I've said before, my helping box is empty. It means I don't want to help you any longer. You should just figure out how to help yourself.” Master Lim said wanting to leave but Song Huo held his hand. “Don’t you want to save Wu Huan? Plus, my sister is pregnant. A

She had not sure when she married Zhao Yao to Song Huo however after watching them these few days, Dai Chan was sure about them. They had fallen in love despite her doubts. Seeing them act so sweetly had made her feel like her life was worth it. What exactly was happening right now? Meanwhile, Zhao Yao slapped Song Huo hard across the face when she heard him apologize. Song Huo felt the sting from Zhao Yao's slap get he didn't move at all. “I am sorry." Song Huo said again feeling the pain as Zhao Yao slapped him for the second time. The pain on his face was nothing compared to the look on Zhao Yao as she stared at him and his sister. They had it for their father. Even though he didn't mean to decieve her, he was still at fault. Which was why he had nothing to say except sorry. Watching Zhao Yao raise her hand for the third time, Song Huo flinched closing his eyes immediately w
THE RISE OF LIMING BRINGING ZHAO YAO HOME
Wu Huan reached out for Zhao Yao putting her by his side as Zhi Hao entered dropping his flowers on the stool near the ancestral tablets. Reaching out for the incense sticks, Zhi Hao bowed his head closing his eyes while Wu Huan and Zhao Yao gazed at him wondering why he was paying his respect to their parents. “Don't you know that the dead hate hypocrites?” Wu Huan asked while Zhi Hao was standing back up. “It's been weeks already. Besides, why do you hate me so much? I didn't do anything to you. On the contrary, it should be me who should be getting angry. You knew about my identity and instead you wanted to take my place." Zhi Hao said as he closed his two hands. “You are right. However, I won't side with you either. There is no difference between you and Song Huo anyway. The both of you are now going to be in a power struggle. And the both of you want to use me." Wu Huan said making. Zhi Hao pause smiling. After lighting the incense sticks, Zhi Hao stood them up in the right p

The rest members of Liming gasped in shock as they saw me that Nan Cheng was about to be killed. Luckily, Nan Cheng has seen it coming and jumped up into the air to avoid the sword. Even when she saw that she had failed, Han Ying didn't stop. “Kill him. Make sure you kill him!" Han Ying said exposing herself while Han Ling remained calm. The royal guards that she had come with, immediately brought out their arrows showing their true intentions. Wu Huan saw the arrows being fired at Nan Cheng and immediately went to block it for him.

“What? What did you say? Wu Huan is holding Duke Chengzhou hostage for his deed?” Han Ying asked as she stood up. Staring at her toys, Han Ling heard everything yet she didn't say anything and continued to play with her toys as if she wasn't concerned. “Has he gone mad? Let's go immediately." Han Ying said about to leave but stopped when she realized that her daughter was not with her. Turning back, Han Ying signaled her daughter to get in line and Han Ling stood up obeying immediately. Few minutes later, they all arrived at Duke Chengzhou's manor where Wu Huan was still holding Duke Chengzhou hostage. He had alreadygotten the deed and was coming out of the manor when Han Ying's carriage stopped iln front. Holding her maid's hand, Han Ying came down and Han Ling followed. “Wu Huan."

FINAL REVELATION (3)
Few seconds later, Wu Huan was rushing out of the house in order to go and find who had been behind everything from the beginning. This unknown person was finally ready to show his face which meant that Han Ling's suspicions had been correct. Anger blinded his eyes and all he wanted to do was to destroy that person. But just as angry as he was, he was also afraid. “Wu Huan." Wu Huan heard his name only after he had felt something grab him. Lifting his head up, Wu Huan turned and saw Zhi Hao. He had already forgotten about Zhi Hao who had followed him. Unlike Wu Huan who was blinded with rage, Zhi Hao was not. Therefore, Zhi Hao could see that it was a huge set up. “Where are you going? Don't you know that it's a trap?" Zhi Hao asked. " Trap or not, do you expect me to leave my sister and allow her to get killed?” Wu Huan asked. Hearing what Wu Huan said, Zhi Hao sighed knowing that there was actually no way that he could stop Wu Huan. Later that evening, Zhi Hao sent a message

“ Who am I?" Han Ling asked as she laughed walking across the room. Wu Huan and Zhi Hao who had been watching her stood suprised as they watched Han Ling move to the window. Just then, the doors opened and the guards came in leading Duke Fenghao. After leading him inside, they left leaving him alone with Wu Huan and Zhi Hao. Glancing at the room, Duke Fenghao already knew something was wrong. “Your Majesty, what is happening here? Do you mind telling me?” Duke Fenghao asked as he looked around the room. “Duke Fenghao, Wu Huan is saying that someone kidnapped Princess Zhao Yao. Did you do it? I believe that you might be the one since you have a grudge against his family for stealing your family's deed.” Han Ling said. “Your Majesty, that's impossible. I would never do such a thing. At all. Even though it is true that he did steal our family's deed, I have no reason to kidnap his sister.” Duke Fenghao said. “But it won't be the first time you have done that. As I have heard, the pr

Han Ling walked from her royal chair where she was supposed to be and walked to the window gazing through it. “In this palace, there are a lot of things that cannot be said. I only hope on others till I can gain my own power. There are a lot of things happening but I can't do anyone about it. Please help me.” Wu Huan heard Han Ling say. After remembering what Han Ling said, Wu Huan left the palace gate about to enter his carriage when he saw Zhao Yao hiding by a corner. Glancing around confused, Wu Huan stepped away from his carriage walking to where Zhao Yao was. “ What are you doing here? Hiding like that.” Wu Huan asked Zhao Yao. Few seconds later, Wu Huan and Zhao Yao stood in an alley talking. Wu Huan had dragged her hand immediately he saw that she had been holding a bag. “Where are you going?” Wu Huan asked Zhao Yao even though he he already knew the answer. Zhao Yao was leaving so suddenly. It could only he because she had heard something about Song Huo. At this moment,

Shao Wen's eyes widened as he heard what Zhao Yao had said. Hearing that it was about the gate of heaven, Shao Wen drew closer near to Zhao Yao and glanced around to make sure no one was around. “Gate of heaven? Did you just say the gate of heaven? How is that possible? You don't think that Brother Song has something to do with this, do you? I can sincerely vouch for him. He would never do such a thing.” Shao Wen said immediately trying to convince Zhao Yao. Shaking her head, Zhao Yao sipped her tea before glancing at her cup as she dropped it down. She already knew that Song Huo wasn't behind it. “I know that he isn't the one behind it. You don't need to convince me otherwise.” Zhao Yao said. “Are you really not going to return back to Chu with me?” Shao Wen asked. Zhao Yao looked at Shao Wen and sighed not knowing if she was doing the right thing. At this moment, she knew it was better to reason with her head rather than her heart yet, she couldn't find herself doing it at al

Glancing up at the ceiling, Han Ying took a deep breath before putting her head down. Lately, she was losing a lot to Zhi Hao and she didn't like it at all. Not wanting to comprise, Han Ying opened her mouth to speak but looked at her personal maid and saw her signal her to not do it. This was more than them just accepting whatever Zhi Hao said, her pride was slowly diminishing. Deciding to heed to her personal maid's warning, Han Ying looked at Han Ling and nodded her head. “Thank you, mother." Han Ying heard Han Ling say as her daughter jumped into her arms hugging her. “Thank you, Queen Mother." Zhi Hao said bowing his head as he smiled. Leaving the palace, Zhi Hao smiled as a part of his plan had worked. He was one step away from revealing the truth. Few days later, Zhi Hao set the trap he wanted in the palace without anyone knowing. Meanwhile, Han Ying was getting anxious by the minute every single day. Zhi Hao had told them that he was going to set a trap but he had not told

Few minutes later, Song Huo woke up with blurry vision as he opened his eyes for the first time. Glancing around, Song Huo looked and saw that he wws still in the same room as his unconscious father. Seeing his father in a coffin, Song Huo immediately got the idea of had really happened. Although their royal family had learned the magic that could be used to preserve a person in between the gate of life and death, there was a price to be paid for it. Sitting up, Song Huo looked to trying to avoid Nan Cheng's gaze as he knew his younger brother very well“There is no need for you to continue staring at me. I know very well what I am doing." Song Huo said" What you are doing? I don't think you know at all. The price of you performing such magic, you must know yourself.” Nan Cheng said making Song Huo stand up immediately. “Enough. You don't need to continue telling me about such trival matters. I will handle myself. Just make sure that you help me perseve my father's body.” Song Huo
