What could happen during military training?
Old Madam Jing glanced at her good grandson and felt something was wrong. She said, “Wait a minute, I’ll accompany your grandaunt.”
“Sister, I’m going to see Tianxin now.”
Ye Tianxin’s grandmother felt a little uneasy when she thought of something happening to her beloved granddaughter. She knew the child’s temper. She always reported good news but not the bad ones. For Jing Zhichen to personally inform her, she knew the matter was serious.
“Ah-Chen, let’s go now. Sister, it’s so late. You don’t have to come. I’ll call you once I get there.”
Ye Tianxin’s grandmother moved very fast. Jing Zhichen winked at his own grandmother, then followed his grandaunt.
Old Madam Jing called to ask about the situation during the military training. When she learned what Xu Yuan and Liu Xu had done, she got angry. Did they not take the Jing family seriously?
“Ah-Chen, will you tell Grandaunt what happened to Tianxin?”
Jing Zhichen didn’t know Tianxin’s real situation, so he only said, “Grandaunt, I really don’t know. Brother Xinghe called me and told me to take you there.”
“Xinghe? Who is that?” Grandaunt didn’t know who Xie Xinghe was.
Jing Zhichen had to explain Xie Xinghe’s identity to his grandaunt. “He is Li Qingcang’s brother-in-law.”

At Country Y…
In the luxurious palace, there were beautiful people in lavish clothing and heavenly scents.
Two men in gorgeous suits were chatting with an exquisitely dressed and made-up woman.
“This time when I went out, I found something that can fight virus X. Whether it is effective or not, I might need further research.”
The blond-haired blue-eyed man said to the woman, “Yi, you’ve gotten thinner!”
“Isn’t it fashionable to be thin now?” The woman smiled, and she took a champagne glass from the waiter’s tray. The champagne was still bubbling.
“If it weren’t for Xiao Mo’s birthday, I might not be back.”
The woman took a sip of the posh drink.
She then felt a sharp pain in her heart.
The crystal glass in the woman’s hand fell on the hand-woven Persian carpet inaudibly, and the champagne turned black as it dried on the expensive rug.
“Yi, you…”
Everything in front of her suddenly stopped.
The sound of music stopped.
The changing lights stopped.
All the voices disappeared.
For more than 10 seconds, her scalp was numb and her mind went blank.
Her entire body seemed to be stiff.
“Find a doctor.”
A man quickly supported the woman, while another man came with a five-year-old boy.
The lively party, because of the host’s departure, instantly became quiet. Everyone was looking at the two men, one woman, and one child as they made their way out of the venue.
“How is she?”
After a detailed examination, the doctor informed the two men standing in front of him, “The queen might have just been exhausted.”
“When she wakes up, will she forget us again?”
“I don’t know,” the doctor answered.
“Then you should conduct a more thorough examination. Nothing can happen to the queen.”
“Yes, my Lord Duke.”
The two men and the little boy in the room looked at the woman on the bed worriedly. She looked like she was asleep.
The little boy stretched out his hand and tugged at the hem of one of the men, then asked, “Daddy, will Mommy forget who I am like last time?”
