Rijun who had investigated and found out about the conspiracy by Eunuch Xin, came to report it to the Emperor first and that's when he witnessed his sister stabbing Shengli from a distance and he instinctively ran towards her. When the Emperor pushed her aside, he felt provoked and he shouted at the Emperor and caught her before she hit her head.

Rijun noted her burnt clothes and her pale complexion and his heart skipped a beat in fear. What kind of danger was she in?

That's when she said about her being poisoned and he picked her up immediately and rushed inside the Emperor's room, all the while calling her but she didn't respond.

Rijun placed her in the Emperor's dradon bed and he checked her breathing and only then he was relieved.

She is fine! Poison don't affect her.

Meanwhile the Emperor who was suddenly attacked by his brother saying that he was responsible for Mingxia's death, followed by the unexpected act of Mingxia, held his now unconscious brother and brought him inside and placed him on the couch as the bed was occupied.

The Emperor opened Shengli's bloody robes to have a look at the wound on his chest and was surprised. There was only a small flesh wound that won't affect him much. So where did all these blood come from?

Rijun looked at his sister's palms that was still bleeding as the cut was deep and cleaned it and applied medicine all the while cursing the Emperor.

"I can hear you!", the Emperor rolled his eyes.

"You monster! You hit my sister! Wait till I tell my father", Rijun had no plans of letting him off. How could he treat his sister that way?

"You saw her stabbing my brother. I just pushed her gently and she fell back", the Emperor tried to control the situation as Rijun brought up AoTian. If this is known to him, he'll be dead... That is.. If his brother doesn't kill him first!

"Don't tell your father...", he pleaded. He was bandaging Shengli's wound when he woke up.

"Where is she?", Shengli pushed the Emperor and tried to stand up.

"Let me finish bandaging first, third brother", the Emperor tried to stop him but Shengli slapped his hands away with an accusing look, stood up and walked towards the bed.

Why is everyone angry at me? My brother tried to kill me and she tried to kill my brother and in all that, how am I the bad guy?

Shengli walked to the bed and he was happy and felt broken hearted seeing her in the bed. Happy because she is actually alive, sad because he couldn't protect her. Rijun who was bandaging her hand stepped aside seeing Shengli approaching her.

"She said you were under a spell and she was poisoned. But Poison doesn't affect her, right? And where were you all these time? She lost herself for days until Lord Ming came for aid. And then suddenly she entered the Palace.. ", Rijun had so many questions he wanted to ask Shengli.


" Poisoned? ", the Emperor who followed his brother was shocked, " Would it hurt the baby?"

" Baby? ", it was Shengli's turn to be perplexed. How is there a baby suddenly?

" Congratulations, brother! You are.. "

" There is no baby. It was all Eunuch Xin's conspiracy to...", Rijun interjected the Emperor.

"OUT! ", Shengli bellowed and Rijun and the Emperor left.

Shengli rubbed his forehead, "How much did you suffer, my love! ", he mumbled and traced his forefinger through her forehead correcting her bangs and took a look at her hands that was neatly cleaned and bandaged by Rijun. It was a deep cut and his heart filled with pain.

He saw her pale face and her dried lips and his eyes teared, "Sorry for not protecting you, Xing ", he placed his forehead over hers, "I'm sorry",

He kissed her lips and gently rubbed her chin with his thumb , "Wake up", he spoke gently and that's when he noticed the red bruises in her neck. He loosened her clothes and took a closer look to see the strangling marks of a hand.

Shihong! He gritted his teeth.

In the past couple of months, he was in and out of consciousness. That evening after Shihong abducted him, he was kept in a secluded place sedated most of the time. Shengli later found a way to keep himself out of seduction and even offered to join back in Shihong's gang in exchange for the protection of Huang Mingxia.

That's when he was informed that she was in the inner palace and so he pretended to be heartbroken and angry at his brother and using Shihong's sympathy, found a way to send a message to her by telling about his brother's allergy. He was trying to find a way out by pretending to be supportive to them. Shihong easily trusted him but the god was skeptical towards him and he was the one who put that spell that forced him to try to kill his brother today.

So Shihong sent him to kill his brother and went to kill her?

Shengli grazed his hand at the bruises on Xing's neck and his blood boiled. Even he would hold himself back from accidentally leaving a mark on her perfect skin. There were plenty of times he had wished to leave a kiss mark in her perfect, porcelain-smooth, soft and fragrant, slender neck but he resisted his urge to do so. Now that Shihong had actually put bruises on her? And that too when he was some feets away from her? How dare he?

Shengli was enraged and he checked her entire body for other possible bruises. Thankfully there weren't any other bruises in her body and so he checked her head and that's when he found a big bump on the back of her head. Was this Shihong's doing too?

While Shengli was fuming, Rijun explained the Emperor about the conspiracies planned under the collaboration of Eunuch Xin and physician Meng and the Emperor was dumbfounded to find out about Eunuch Xin. Is this why she was always cautious around him?

As he was about to ask futher, the Emperor felt someone approaching and went to have a look. It would become troublesome if someone noted everyone here and also there are a bunch of dead guys out there. It all needs to be handled.

The Emperor's lips curled in mockery seeing Eunuch Xin and Physician Meng appear in his courtyard. They were surprised to see the dead guards in the courtyard and the Emperor noted the Eunuch worriedly hurrying his steps.

Let's see what kind of story they spin!

At the same time Shengli who was worried about Xing smelt a strong scent of blood and took a look at her hand but the bleeding was arrested there.

He lifted the blanket and that's when he saw the bed soaked entirely in blood and his heart stopped for a moment. Why is there so much blood?

" Junjie..! Send for a doctor..! Now!", he shouted and that coincided with the Physician and Eunuch greeting the Emperor.
