What a splendid sword dance...
Inside the hall, upon suddenly hearing this voice, Zhao Douan and Yu Xiu both froze for a moment, turned their heads to look outside the hall, and through the doorway, were astonished to see the female Emperor in white already present outside.

Originally explosively powerful, the sword in her hand remained still as a quail, as if it had died.
Behind her, around her, the Zhao family servants and You Jinhua with her daughter emerged but didn't dare approach.
"Your Majesty?" Zhao Douan's mind buzzed, his intuition as a man told him: something is amiss!
