Chu looks at nervous Yu Yan , probably deciding whether to go or not. Because if she does not leave that place as soon as possible they'll be surrounded by the enemy empire's knights. And that would be worse, the twenty reinforce knights guarding her palace will not be able to stop them.
Probably Zhong didn't think of it because this situation was unexpected. Yu Yan bit her lower lip and hesitantly asked,"Lord Hao Fei, is there nowhere else to go?"
He sighed and looked into You Yan's nervous eyes, not knowing why but he felt sad for whatever he was doing. His heart ached terribly but now everything is a mess and can't be changed back to how it was. He has to complete his promise to second prince Yuxan Wei and focus on his future.
"Princess there's nowhere else to go. It will be easy to get shelter in eastern territory where your brother rules. As I can see your family left you here," he brutally criticized.
ಥ‿ಥ so it is how it is...
