After the crack of the dawn illuminated the vast mountain, the loud sound of bulge horns were heard echoing thru out the Qian Gu Villa.
There was a long pause. Followed by tremendous shaking of the ground. Several dozen of steady horses, who rushed in alarming speed, bang their hooves to the ground.
The noise woke up Wei Yi Yi in alarm. "Fire?! Where's the fire?! Lan Zhuang, call the fire department right away!" She shouted half asleep.
Wei Yi Yi who was trying to stand up in bed slips on the bedding and fall directly to the wooden floor with a loud bang. She groaned in pain and hold on to her head like it would shatter any moment. With narrowed eyes, she peered at the unfamiliar ceiling and finally woke up to reality.
"Your Majesty!" Tang Mei, who came the moment she heard Wei Yi Yi distressed shouts, gasped. In but a few steps, she was already kneeling beside the Empress. "Are you in pain, Empress? Where does it hurt?"
