*YING DOU'S POV
"Your Majesty, some news just came in. The empress of Han has snuck out of Zhao palace." The imperial guard said
"And Chaoxing?" I asked as I drop the scroll I was reading.
"The emperor of Zhao has not exposed the empress. But a few days ago, he ascended the throne of Zhao." The imperial guard said.
"And Xuilan? Where is she? Call her here now!" I said angrily.
Xuilan is lucky she didn't come earlier. When she arrives, I have already became calm and no longer angry. Instead I was playing chess with crown prince which put me in a good mood. Crown prince was so young yet he was already so intelligent.
Xuilan enters the room and when I see her, I am reminded once again about her incompetence. Crown prince who is already so smart, stands up immediately.
"Royal Father, I will take my leave now" Crown prince said and I nod at him.
