I had located Liu Yun and Liu Ling only after much difficulty.
In the end, they also died under the threats of my political opponents.
There was also the Second Prince. Oh, no. He was already the Emperor at that time.
I helped him to ascend to the throne, but I also committed too many murders and triggered public anger.
Although he didn't say it explicitly, he distanced himself from me.
Even when political opponents attacked me, he no longer defended me.
Despite this, I didn't really need his protection.
I knew that at that time, the only thing I could still do for His Majesty was to die in order to illustrate his wisdom.
Thus, that night, when the assassin came to assassinate me, I could have dodged, but I didn't.
What was the point of a person without tomorrow and hope like me continuing to live in this world?
It would be better to help His Majesty by dying, thereby repaying his kindness one last time.
