Especially just now, when each of them ignored their own lives and called for help with all the air in their lungs, their voices are now hoarse and weak without strength.
When their cries to the heavens went unanswered and their pleas to the earth were in vain, the voice of the Imperial Palace Guard finally came from outside.
"Dowager Consort, I'm here to rescue you!"
"!"
Hearing this, hope flared in the Dowager Consorts as they trembled and hurried to open the door, only to see a ground full of injured men kneeling outside.
These young men were injured to varying degrees, appearing utterly disheveled.
The Dowager Consort, no longer concerned with chastisement, quickly urged them to report what had happened outside.
However, before they could answer, another cry of anguish came from outside.
It was only then that the Dowager Consorts realized belatedly that the emergency had not subsided, and that the fighting was still ongoing outside.
