"That can't be possible! My Chen!" Mrs. Duke North rushed out of the crowd and came to the blood-covered boy. "Chen, you should not die, you can't leave me alone in this world! What can I do?!" Mrs. Duke North burst out in tears.
The imperial doctors in the room also started to wipe their tears.
Duke North died in the battlefield years earlier, when the battle between the country and North Qi arose, so only the mother and the son were left. Now that the Young Duke grew up, she had to see him dying too. That was just so devastating.
The Dean was also wiping his tears. He knew that all was doomed. He had thought that Gu Chaoyan could have a way out, but now it seemed that she could not do anything either.
He patted the eunuch next to him. "Tell the King, we have tried our best."
"Hang on." Gu Chaoyan stopped the eunuch.
She threw a look at the Dean, took a deep breath and said seriously, "Dean, let me have a try."
