After leaving the Sky Prison, the Emperor gazed at the rising sun on the horizon, lost in thought: "It's morning now..."
Divine Doctor Huang had mentioned that tonight would be a perilous night, but now that it's morning, does this mean...
His heart ached intensely, and he dared not dwell on it further.
Seeing Zhang Qing waiting outside, the Emperor instinctively asked, "Has she awakened?"
Zhang Qing opened his mouth, but ultimately shook his head, suppressing his sorrow. She still had not awakened when he arrived...
The Emperor stood without moving for a long time, then stepped into the cold gleam of the winter sun, his entire being enveloped in cold solitude, filled with desolation.
Zhang Qing followed, accompanied by the Young Eunuch from the Star Palace.
