City of Long Han
A young man is watching the paper containing news from Ming Kingdom with a grim expression. The girl beside him also looks worried. It can't be helped, the news they get from the capital is truly shocking.
"Do you think Jun Hua will be alright?" the girl, Fan Lanying, asked with worried tone.
Ming Hui didn't answer. After coming to this city, he had been dressed as man when he's inside the house. There is no one watching him anymore like when he's still in the capital, so he's feeling more comfortable. Besides, he has been trying to erase the presence of 'Princess Ming Hui' from existence here.
He thought that each of them would be able to get out from the capital easily because of the incoming war. However, this news really caught him off guard.
"I don't know, Lanying. Just hope for the best."
