章 146: Luminous Stone

"I wonder, what do you want that you suddenly change, Bai-Bai? Can you find out?" asked Empress Gui with great enthusiasm.

She had always seen her son as a very powerful figure, a future emperor who would restore their family name.

The dream was shattered in one moment when the sword-wielding man appeared with several other troops that she could barely see because she was so shocked.

Then they all attacked her husband and didn't even save him when he was dying. She remembers how angry she was every time she replayed the memory.

Then she saw Prince Gui Bai cornered in fear and even almost killed until then she pleaded and promised not to come to the palace again. And then her whole family was exiled. Some were imprisoned for very long periods.

Only a few years ago they were released, due to pressure from various parties.

She knew that the Qing empire was only trying to win people's sympathy.
