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
Zhao Yao heard what Han Ying said and raised her head only to see everyone looking at her. Looking at Dai Chan, Zhao Yao saw her shake her head telling her to stop crying. “What are you talking about? I am just emotional because my wedding was almost ruined." Zhao Yao said. " It's okay, darling. Everything has been settled now. Your Majesty, may we continue?” The crown prince of Chu asked. “Of course. Let's continue.”Xing Ming said. Servants gathered round Zhao Yao helping her to put on back her veil and doing her make-up briefly. After doing everything, one of the servants stayed to help Zhao Yao turn around. “Bow to each other! May your marriage be blessed with lots of children." Dai Chan sighed as she saw her brother and Zhao Yao bow to each other. Things had gone well after everything. Watching the both of them bow to each other, Dai Chan felt Xing Ming take her hand taking her to where the couple was. The crown prince of Chu and Zhao Yao each took one side of the long red r
“What do you think you are doing? Do you want to be sold?!” Yu Bai asked the girls laughing watching as they disappeared one by one. Stomping her leg angrily, Yu Bai went back inside. Nan Cheng left the brothel and sighed as his plan had worked successfully. Looking back at the brothel, Nan Cheng couldn't help but think about what Yu Bai had said. Wu Huan had also been at the brothel to search for his true identity. Did his father also know about this? “No matter what, I won't be the one to expose you. Thanks to you, I've been able to live longer, Brother Wu. That means, Yu Bai has to die." Nan Cheng said talking to himself as he stared at the brothel. Meanwhile, Wu Huan returned back to the manor disheartened as he entered with Zhi Hao. No matter how Zhi Hao tried to comfort him and no matter how Zhi Hao tried to apologize, Wu Huan couldn't help but feel very sad. Zhao Yao had said. She wasn't his sister. If she wasn't his sister then, where was his sister? If Master Ye hadn't fo
Dai Chan and Song Huo were just arriving back from the Lim manor when they saw one of Xing Ming's eunuch taking Zhao Yao away. Dai Chan steppedup to stop the eunuch when Song Huo stopped her. “What are you doing?” Song Huo asked looking at Dai Chan. “Where are they taking her to? Do you think that Xing Ming has discovered that we are siblings?” Dai Chan asked. “What do you mean? Did you tell him? I didn't. And none of the people nor the envoys around us will dare to spill such a secret. They have kept it well so far." Song Huo said. " I may have just been too anxious.” Dai Chan said. “My best guess is that Xing Ming wants to talk to her. Sister, even if you receive any news of me being attacked, don't do anything." Song Huo warned Dai Chan. " Do you think that's why Xing Ming is calling her? Zhao Yao will never harm you. Don't worry.” Dai Chan said. “I know she won't. The people I am talking about is Liming. I am sure that by now, theg must have received their next mission.” So
“I… .” Zhao Yao said. “I…” Song Huo said at the same time. Silence filled the carriage again as they went. Looking at Zhao Yao, Song Huo opened his mouth wanting to speak again. Dai Chan was right. He had married her without understanding what she wanted. Now that he had married her, there was no turning back. “Did you have a lover before? I know it is selfish of me to ask this now. I just didn't think of it before.” Song Huo said. “You have been in Zhou for so long, you must have heard some rumors. Why are you pretending not to know?” Zhao Yao asked as she turned her face away. “I… I have been in Zhou but as you know, I was with Liming. We had trained at the boarder before we came to the capital. When we arrived at the capital, there were a lot of other things that needed my focus.” Song Huo said turning his face as he felt guilty. “Then why did you marry me? Just so that you can take me from Zhou? I already knew that you and Sister Dai had planned this together. Do you know w
“It's all because of the late emperor. Do you think I care about if anyone calls me an imposter? I don't want the name of the late emperor to be ruined." Xing Ming said gritting his teeth as he said it. “Do you really care about the late emperor so much? Have you forgotten that he almost dethroned you because he was jealous that you might be greater than him? How could you have forgotten everything?” The Empress Dowager asked. “No matter what he did to me back then, I can never blame him. How can I point fingers at him after what you did? Get out. Get out!” Xing Ming shouted at the Empress Dowager. The Empress Dowager sighed looking at Xing Ming sadly before leaving. Leaving Xing Ming's palace, the Empress Dowager stopped standing in shock as she saw Zhou Dong standing outside. “What are you doing here?” The Empress Dowager asked. “You should stop blaming yourself. It's never a crime to love." Zhou Dong said before higging the Empress Dowager. Meanwhile, Xing Ming stood outside
Wu Huan open his eyes slowly watching as the girl from the brothel undressed wanting to lie in bed with him. Glancing at the head of the crime department, Wu Huan watched as the head of the crime department signaled him to stay still. Turning to look back, Wu Tang closed his eyes immediately after seeing that she was already naked. Going stiff, Wu Huan closed his eyes and felt the girl already attempting to remove his clothes. Closing his eyes tightly, Wu Huan felt as the girl tried to untie the rope of his trousers. Remembering how it may affect the group if she came to claim rights over him, Wu Huan stood up stopping her as she attempted to remove his robe. “Young Master." Wu Huan heard the girl say as her hands shook out of fear. “What were you doing? Are you supposed to be here? “ Wu Huan asked. “Young master. I didn't mean to….” The girl said shaking as the door suddenly opened. A girl that Wu Huan didn't recognize entered the room carrying some drinks and snacks on a tray.
While Han Ying paid her respect to Duke Kaifeng, Zhi Hao watched from the corner. He couldn't even pay respect to his father and that made him even more angrier. Clenching his hand, Zhi Hao continued to look as his father helped Han Ying up and laughed with her. All these years, he had been deprived all these happy and joyous moments while suffering and taking beatens. He wanted revenge. To see Xing Ming fall because he was the reason why he had suffered. He had neglected his sister, allowed her to be mocked by others. “Zhou Xing Ming." Zhi Hao said as he tightened his hand. Han Ying laughed and talked with her father. Raising her gaze, Han Ying spotted Zhi Hao standing by the corner. Judging by the fact that he had not moved, Han Ying guessed it was because he was lost in thought. “What is it, Ying'er? You are not listening to me at all." Duke Kaifeng said complaining as he turned to look back. Knowing that he would spot Zhi Hao, Han Ying stopped him by putting a hand on his shou
