Chapter 71: Heart of the Emperor

As Princess Ling Meng recounted what had happened, His Majesty's face started becoming deadly serious and his eyes turned icy cold. His Majesty's head was lowered as he listened silently, moving not even in the slightest bit.

The events involved the safety of His Majesty's own daughter. Not only that, it had also embroiled another 'crucial' person. This person had often remained neutral to political issues, but his involvement in today's events and the consequences that would result from his involvement were simply too great. It was so great that the Emperor himself may not be able to bear it, or even want to face it!

As an Emperor, his own daughter was almost assassinated. Yet, His Majesty had to care about that debauchee. Could there be no love amongst the royal bloodlines? How sorrowful!

Finally…

"From what you have said, Jun Moxie had gone to deliver a warning to you before the assassination attempt happened?" pondered the Emperor.
