THE RISE OF LIMING PRICE
Dai Chan turned back looking at the maids dismissing them. After they had left, Dai Chan looked at Xing Ming and the consort that were in bed. Funny enough, not even a part of her had been jealous or angry. Han Ying was right. The only reason why Xing Ming was interested in her was because she wasn't the empress. And she wasn't obviously interested in the position either. If being a Noble Consort would help her get her mission done faster, she was more than happy to remain a Consort.Few minutes later, all four of them sat down to breakfast. The entire table was silent as they ate making Dai Chan wonder what was running through Xing Ming's mind. Xing Ming was a geye complicated person. His mind was always hard to read.Your Majesty, I am full. I just came to deliver your nourishing soup as I always did. I didn't expect that Consort Bao would still be here.” Dai Chan said bowing her head before attempting to leave..“Consort Bao, leave." Dai Chan heard Xing Ming say making her smile.
THE RISE OF LIMING PAYBACK
Dai Chan's maids saw their mistress get on her knees to beg the Empress Dowager and they were surprised. This had been the first time they had seen her kneel down after the death of Madam Dai since they had a come from the brothel. “Noble Consort." One of the maids said feeling sorry for Dai Chan. Dai Chan was begging the Empress Dowager not to send her sister far away. Something that she had never done since she arrived at the palace. The life of a prostitute was very hard. Having grown in the brothel, she had seen the way their kind was treated. She vowed never to beg anyone. To plead for mercy. “What is this? Are you trying to make me look bad? Where is your fighting spirit? I thought that you would never beg.” The Empress Dowager said. “I am. Queen Mother, please don't send my sister far away." Dai Chan said with tears in her eyes. “ Fine. I am very magnanimous. I will let this go this time. As long as you know your place." The Empress Dowager said. " I do. I will never over
THE RISE OF LIMING HYPNOSIS
The Empress Dowager's personal maid screamed on the top of her voice after seeing that there was something wrong with the Empress Dowager. “Help! Anyone!" The Empress Dowager's personal maid screamed. Few minutes later, everyone was gathered. The emperor and the empress immediately went to the Empress Dowager's palace after hearing what had happened. While Xing Ming and Han Ying were focused on watching the Empress Dowager, the rest concubines were already crying and sobbing. “Why are you crying? The Empress Dowager isn't dead yet!” Han Ying scolded the concubines. Ming looked at the royal physician that was examining his mother watching his expression. He was already familiar with the physicians. Unlike other physicians that showed the condition of their patient on their faces, the royal physicians did the opposite. When the person was dying, the royal physicians would remain quiet and put on an expressionless face. This was because they knew that their heads could roll at any m
THE RISE OF LIMING HYPNOSIS (2)
Xing Ming clenched his fist as he heard what his uncle had said. There were many people around so he couldn't punch his uncle as he wanted. Nor could he reveal the true reason why they had always fought. “You brought him here? Under whose orders? I know your the prime minister but don't you think you are overstepping your boundaries?" Xing Ming asked. " I was able to find out how they poisoned the Empress Dowager, Your Majesty.” Xing Ming heard the head of crime department say. “You have? What's the method?” Xing Ming asked turning to look at the the head of the crime department. “Through hypnosis, Your Majesty. I also thought it was hard to believe but, what he is saying might make sense." Han Ying said. " You were able to identify the method. And the poison? Do you know what poison it is?” Xing Ming asked. “Not yet. It will have to take some time. Because she was asleep when she digested the poison, it's taking a longer time to digest.” The head of the crime department said.
THE RISE OF LIMING MYSTERIES
Just as they were talking, the maids passed by gossiping. “The Empress Dowager has woken up!” Wu Huan heard one of the maids say. “She has woken up? Thank heavens.” The other maid said as she left. Wu Huan and his friends sighed as they hearrd what the maids had been saying. “Where is Nan Cheng?" Wu Huan heard the head of the crime department ask in his deep voice. Watching as Nan Cheng came out, Wu Huan looked at the head of the crime department. The head of the crime department seemed to like wearing black cloaks to cover his face Only his mouth could be seen since he was bendingh his head . People said he was incredibly skilled and strong. Judging by the wounds and scars on his hands, it seemed it was true. “Let's go. The Empress Dowager has woken up. She wants to see the young physician that saved her life.” The head of the crime department said. “Please teach me Kung Fu. I want to learn." Wu Huan said kneeling down. “Wu Huan." Song Huo said. " Do you know what you are sa
THE RISE OF LIMING MYSTERIES (2)
Shao Wen jerked back nervously as he saw Zhi Hao. He had tried not to show it but, he was flustered.“Nothing. It's just because I remembered the head of the crime department.” Shao Wen said.“His image is very hard to forget, isn't it?” Xiang Jun asked.Shao Wen nodded his head immediately agreeing with Xiang Jun hoping it was enough to make Zhi Hao believe him. Watching as Zhi Hao nodded his head, Shao Wen sighed as he watched Zhi Hao leave before collapsing to the ground sighing“You are like this. What did you do to Brother Zhi?” Xiang Jun asked.“Nothing. Nothing at all." Shao Wen said placing a hand to his chest as Xiang Jun looked at him with his eyes narrowed.Xing Ming arrived at Dai Chan's palace and entered. Wherever he was stressed or angry about his uncle, he would go to her palace. Just as she had promised him before, she had always listened to him.“You shouldn't have done that in front of the Empress Dowager. For her sake, you should have at least held your anger in. U
THE RISE OF LIMING CRIME DEPARTMENT
Zhao Yao rolled her eyes as she heard what Dai Chan's brother had said. This was her first time meeting him but she could already tell that he was cocky and full of himself. Crown princess? The title itself was enticing. Who wouldn't want to be the crown princess? “You don't need to worry. If you have been watching me as you said, you'll see that I have no plan on becoming the crown princess. Much less your wife." Zhao Yao said before turning her gaze back to Dai Chan and Xing Ming. While Dai Chan and Xing Ming were hugging each other and acting affectionate, Wu Huan stumbled upon the scene. Since their manor had been repaired, all the members of Liming were returning to their manor today. Wu Huan had gotten worried about the case of the Empress Dowager. This was because there was currently no one they knew of that used hypnosis except Song Huo. Last time, he had almost gotten married as a punishment because the emperor had misunderstood his relationship with the Noble Consort. It w

The members of Liming were having their dinner as usual. It was already near evening and so they returned back to their manor that had been completed thanks to Wu Huan's fake marriage. “Where is Wu Huan?" Yin Xue Yue asked as he dropped the remaining dishes Xiang Jun had cooked. “He went out. Come to think of it, it has been a while since he left." Shao Wen said" And Zhi Hao? He isn't here too? Don't you think that he has been disappearing and appearing too often?” Song Huo asked making Shao Wen to stiff. Shao Wen suddenly remembered what he had learned about Zhi Hao. Was he really the head of the crime department as he suspected? All he had was the similar laughter between them. Maybe he was wrong.“ He has always been like that. You will have to tie his two legs iif you want him to stay here. It's nothing out of the ordinary.” Song Huo said. “But things are different here. It's not like back when we are at boarder. At least, we knew he had places to go. Here, who does he know?

(Two years later)Wu Huan walked across the palace with his entourage following him as he entered into the court room. All the ministers stood up and immediately greeted him before he took his seat. This was his life now. After dealing with all the matters of state for the day, Wu Huan went to visit someone. Opening the door, Wu Huan was suprised as he saw greeted with someone running to meet him. “Your Majesty." Wu Huan heard his wife say and nodded his head at her too. “Royal father." Wu Huan heard Huanxing say and smiled. Day by day, Huanxing resembled the woman he had loved to the ending. The fact that he wasn't at her side at her last ending was forever a big regret to him. Nevertheless, she left him a perfect gift. Her son. Wu Huan didn't mind who was Huanxing's father. To him, he was his son and he would take care of him as long as he was alive. Few months later, Wu Huan left the palace and arrived last on the mountains. All the other members of Liming were already there wi

THE END
Hearing Nan Cheng talk, Han Ying became even more nervous. The more Nan Cheng talked, the more he was revealing too many things. Things that she didn't want the world to know. Signaling a guard with her hand behind her back, Han Ying collected his sword. Tightening her hand around the sword, Han Ying threw the sword aiming for Nan Cheng. 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. The two of them blocked all the arrows watching it fall to the ground. But the more they blocked the arrows fired at

“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." Wu Huan heard his name and stopped watching as the royal guards that had followed Han Ying rounded him. “Wu Huan. Stop this madness immediately and drop the deed. You have finally exposed yourself in

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

FINAL REVELATION
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
