They're flabbergasted to see,
No one could confirm the incident,
Except that Qing Long knew who did it.

Qing Long's stunned body confirmed the thought. His rigid jaw clenched tight, and his knuckled fists hid behind his back in a haste. He scrambled a bit on the floor; the physician rubbing his hands on wipes. He licked his lips and looked at the bodyguards.
Sir Zhang walked past ahead of the emperor. He helped the destined Queen from the floor. Simultaneously asking the physician on what to do.
Emperor Li Jing turned to the strange man crumpled on the floor. His abashed eyes glared. Qing Long couldn't apparate at the moment. It will put him and Althea in a risky situation.
