In the mountains stood a small temporary palace. Outside, elite Han Imperial Guards patrolled back and forth, their watch severe.
Inside the palace.
"It has been three days."
"The capital has been breached by the Qin Army."
"When exactly can we depart?"
"My heart knows no peace staying here."
If the Qin Army discovers me, I'm finished.
King Han An asked the minister before him, his expression grave.
"Your Majesty knows that the capital has been taken," the minister replied respectfully. "With its fall, the Qin Army will undoubtedly begin a massive search for you. There are definitely Qin forces scouring the lands outside the city right now. If we leave this place, we will inevitably be discovered. Then it will truly be over for us."
"Must we wait here indefinitely?"
"But what if they search the mountains? What if I'm discovered? Then what?" King Han An asked, his face still etched with worry.
