Lowering the curtains, Yi Jie dressed her daughter in clothes that were scattered on the floor.
The whole room was in chaos when General Li entered. His eyes sank when he saw his wife Yi Jie weeping on the bed. Her face was pale as she tried to check what was wrong with her daughter.
His daughter, Li Rui, was lying on the bed with her eyes closed. As if Yi Jie sensed his presence, she raised her head to look in his direction. His heart twisted in pain when he looked at her condition. Ignoring everything, he rushed towards the bed and tried to console his wife.
The Empress had ordered everyone to go out of the room. Despite their desperate will to stay in the room, all the ladies went outside.
General Li didn't know anything. He was having a conversation with other Ministers at the banquet when suddenly a palace maid informed him that something has happened to his elder daughter.
