Lee Shimin lowered his head as he got on his knees admitting his mistake of not keeping a check on the security.
"Lee Shimin, I want the truth out from the shooters you have brought to the palace. This time I don't need any ridiculous explanation from you. My family's life was at stake today," Emperor Xiangwei instructed in his firm tone. "So, get up and do your work. I need a positive response from you," he stated.
Lee Shimin stood up. "I will do my best, Your Majesty," he stated with a determined tone.
"This is your last chance because your son's life is also dependant on it. After all, he is the current Crown Prince," Emperor Xiangwei pronounced.
Lee Shimin looked into the eyes of the Emperor as his brows drew closer. He nodded his head as he understood the gravity of the situation.
After General Lee left, Xiangwei looked at Eunuch Yang. "Did Mother wake up?" he inquired.
