Ning Fu had come to The Imperial Palace on a whim.
Since the banquet had ended, he had felt restless and his feet had taken him to this place without a conscious decision on his part.
He had arrived just as Zhou Sheng and His Majesty had started talking and he couldn't put his feelings into words as he heard their fight.
It seemed that The Empress Dowager and his own guess had been wrong.
The monarch wasn't in love with this boy but with someone else and from their talk it was clear that Zhou Sheng had been friends with that person.
Whatever had happened had been experienced by the monarch, his beloved and Zhou Sheng and though the three of them had been close, the incident seemed to have built walls between Zhou Sheng and His Majesty.
From Zhou Sheng's words, Ning Fu could infer that the other person didn't agree with the actions the emperor had taken.
But what?
What had happened?
