On a rough road just miles far away from the palace Lee was riding his horse, he had just slowed down after days of riding hard yet he still managed to turn back and went back to the same place that he just spent days running away from - back to the palace. He was sweating and panting while standing in front of the gates - even the breeze of the evening didn't help his body to cool down from his ride which almost took all that he had, he was worn out and starving.
The guards bowed before him when he arrived at the gates, even the guests who were standing in line waiting to enter Tong'an were told to wait for His Majesty to pass through first. They looked at Lee who stood tall on his horse looking down at them with a furious look on his face.
"Your Majesty... how was your journey?" asked the head guard.
Lee dismounted from the horse and handed a rope to the guard. "As you can imagine, where is the Queen?"
"At the palace Your Majesty"
