Emperor Jin’s Ceremony Supervisor and eunuch, Zhu Zhong, humbly approaches and modestly speaks, "Your Highness, the Great Prince, please...take a break. With the Emperor here, it’s indiscreet for you to behave in his presence. It’s likely to offend the heavens."
Scowling, Saknu turned to face the indignant Emperor Jin and spat, "The pitiful state I’m in, I owe it all to your beloved daughter. I will pay this debt back to you sooner or later!"
His tone carried an ominous threat, his expression as if he was about to murder someone. Emperor Jin felt a sudden surge of unease, uncertain how to deal with this brute.
"No—don’t touch me—uhh—"
Without warning, Princess Zhao Yang suddenly woke up. As soon as she opened her eyes, she screamed loudly, waving her hands trying to push Empress Mo away. Her large wide eyes were filled with terror and desperation.
Empress Mo’s motherly heart shattered at the sight of her daughter in such a state. Holding her daughter even tighter, she tried to console her, "Yuyu, don’t be afraid. I’m your Imperial Mother, and your Imperial Father is also here. No one dares to bully you!"
However, Princess Zhao Yang continued to struggle, shrieking frantically, "Let me go, get away——"
"Saknu, what exactly happened? What did you do to Zhao Yang?"
Emperor Jin was furious. Although he was intimidated by Saknu’s dominance, anyone could see from the terrified and hysterical state of his daughter, that she had been violated. He was the monarch of a nation, and his daughter had been degraded on his soil. How could he not be angry?
Seeing the Emperor’s anger, Jin Guifei carefully slid out from his arms, gently consoling, "Your Majesty, don’t be angry, you need to care for your health. To understand what happened, why not summon the servants who attended to the princess? There’s no need to harm your health in anger."
"Bring the servants who attended to Princess Zhao Yang to me." Emperor Jin heeded Jin Guifei’s advice and ordered coldly before storming off.
Jin Guifei looked at Empress Mo triumphantly, her eyes revealing a malicious smirk, and exited the room as well.
Empress Mo shivered, her back went cold under Jin Guifei’s mocking gaze.
Having known Jin Guifei for over two decades, Empress Mo was well aware of her character. Jin Guifei only ever looked at her in that particular way when she had a tight grip on her weaknesses or secrets. Consequently, Empress Mo was filled with alarm.
Helped onto her feet by Li Zequan, Empress Mo steeled herself and said, "Luo Xue, take the princess back. Li Zequan, assist me to see the Emperor."
In an instant, the room was empty, leaving only Cai Wei, Saknu, and Doctor Liu who appeared to be either dead or unconscious.
From the beginning to end, no one had noticed Cai Wei’s presence, completely ignoring her.
However, Cai Wei did not feel sorrowful, she didn’t expect them to care about her. As long as they didn’t harm her, it was good enough. What more could she expect from them?
At the moment, her only concern was that Doctor Liu might die before Saknu’s lust subsided. If so, what would she do if his hands reached for her?
Regardless, Cai Wei clenched her teeth, determined that if he dared to touch her, she would pull him into the Space and let the white tiger kill him.
Just then, she heard Du Meiren calling her in a low voice.
After the call, Du Meiren hurriedly walked into the room. She had been here for a while but dared not approach without being summoned. Now that neither the Emperor nor Empress was present, she finally had the guts to visit Cai Wei.
