"Your highness please escape with the crown prince in midnight"
I never imagined that this day would come. That the emperor would be plotting to kill me and my son.
He would believe what concubine Lou says than me.
Concubine Lou made a rumor about my son not being the emperor's child. How ironic he believes it.
That shattered my heart apart.
How could the only man i have loved doubted me?
We vow to trust and love each other before, yet he fell out of love and push me away! And now they're plotting to kill my 3 year old baby.
My tears can't stop from falling.
I'm in despair. But my son have not sinned!
"Get the crown prince here. I'll take him out in this hell"
—
His blonde hair takes from the emperor while his blue eyes is mine. Yet he said this precious thing is not his own kin.
Sleeping soundly in my arms. Not knowing what his own father have planned to do to him.
"Here's the map your highness we must hurry! The carriage is in the back"
Covering my long black hair the guards won't be able to recognize me.
"STOP!"
"What's in the carriage?"
Imperial guards question my maid with annoying look.
"Oh its our head maid! You know her! she's stingy! Here's something for you two from her!
Imperial guards beam with happiness when Linda gave a two bar golds to bribe them.
"Ahehehe.. of course you all may pass"
And that's how the palace works.
"PHEW! Gladly we got outside with—"
"LINDAAA!!!"
Massive arrows are flying to us
Oh no!
She got shot by an arrow in her chest!
Blood! Too many blood!
"Linda! Get a hold of yourself please"
"Your highness! Its the emperor's secret guards! You must run now! Go hide in the forest! I'll distract them with the carriage!"
"No erin! How could I escape without you both!"
Linda reach my hand holding it tightly. Tears streaming down in her face.
Erin started crying too.
"We are indebted and grateful to you your highness"
"Your highness! Please escape safely...
Long live the empress....."
As Lindas breathing fades.
I began to move and ran towards the forest.
Right now i need to keep the prince safe.
