Chapter 175: Sneak attack 3

Hours earlier, the Crown Prince's palace

"Your majesty", the maids and eunuch standing outside the common room chorused as the Emperor walked into the palace. Emperor Zhong paid no mind to their greeting as he walked past the long roll of palace maids and eunuchs stationed at Xinfeng palace. His maids and eunuchs stood back by the door leading into the room.

While Emperor Zhong walked into the bedroom with only Caihong following him into the room. Empress Lu and the Crown Princess consort Xia Ying stood a short distance from the bed. While the imperial doctors walked around the bed as they tried to revive the Crown Prince. 

Empress Lu looked to the door as the door was pushed open, she stood and bowed as Emperor Zhong walked into the room.

"Your majesty, she said head down, Everyone else in the room turned around and bowed as they heard her words.
