The Destiny of Love in Ancient Times
Leaving the Imperial Palace Without Permission

WHEN the protective array of the city broke apart, all the undead that had been waiting for finally roamed around freely in search of prey. They would kill anything that had been passed, destroy items or even scare people.

Unfortunately, the solar eclipse that makes this day like a pitch-black night, the atmosphere in the city looks lonely.

Except for the imperial palace which still had little activity. Emperor Gu sat on the dragon chair while listening to some reports from his subordinates periodically.

On learning that the protective array broke, Emperor Gu did not seem to be worried.

Empress Xue was also beside him, her mood was agitated. He was worried about his daughter who was now in the An family residence. Her daughter was pregnant at this time, not knowing whether to feel depressed when An Daiyu plunged into the scene.

"Your Majesty, is everything going to be okay?" tanyakanya.

Emperor Gu sighed softly. "We believe in the plan of the eleventh prince."

In Emperor Gu's eyes, the eleventh prince—Gu Yihao was as capable as retired emperors in the past. She has ambitions of protecting the country even if not growing up under the tutelage of her concubine mother.

Thinking of the death of his loved ones, Emperor Gu sighed. He seemed to be very old at the moment, tired and wanting to retire. But Gu Huiling had not been able to sit on the dragon seat while taking the confidence of the people and the subordinates of the imperial palace.

Being an emperor was not something that was easy to do. The responsibility is big.

Right now alone, Emperor Gu was calculating how much of a loss would be charged to the imperial palace. Many taels of silver and gold would come out from the treasury of the imperial palace. Emperor Gu felt heartbroken when he thought about it.

The items destroyed by the undead were not few. But what matters is that his people survived. An emperor without his people, isn't that just nonsense?

All of a sudden, a guard walked in with a terrified expression on his face.

"What's wrong?" asked Emperor Gu to have a bad feeling.

"Your Majesty ... This, it's about ... about the honorary concubine Yi—"

The guard who was reporting was suddenly interrupted by Empress Xue.

"Speak clearly! What the hell is going on?"

There were rumors circulating if Honorary Consort Yi left after hearing the news about Gu Wenlian.

Listening to this report, Emperor Gu was furious and asked his other troops to search for the whereabouts of the woman. Stepping out of the cold palace alone was already worthy of punishment, let alone this leaving the gates of the imperial palace.

"Isn't the palace gate closed? How could he leave?" asked Emperor Gu in a loud and furious tone.

"Bawahan .. subordinates do not know. But, but we found some piles of boxes near the fence. It was most likely that concubine Yi left the palace by climbing the wall," the guard reported as he wiped away the cold sweat on his forehead.

Emperor Gu's aura was truly extraordinary. His gaze alone was already capable of killing people perhaps.

Emperor Gu gnashed his teeth, sitting with anger. Empress Xue tried to calm her anger, giving her a cup of tea while saying a few good words.

After reporting, the guard immediately left the emperor's palace hall as quickly as possible. News of the passing of Consort Yi spread to the imperial concubine's backyard. They praised the bravery of Honorary Concubine Yi but on the other hand were also deplorable.

Emperor Gu had already ordered everyone in the palace not to leave the courtyard a step. The atmosphere out there is not safe.

But Honorary Concubine Yi left the palace, something no other concubine had ever done.

A mistress of the empire with a rank that was not low before, Honorary Consort Yi was praised as a noble and reasonable hunting woman.

Who knew everything had become a mess after hearing Gu Wenlian's name out there. Though it has been explained that Gu Wenlian has died and now his body is taken over eh Gu Wei.

Even the surviving relatives of Honorary Concubine Yi became alarmed. But Emperor Gu himself did not want to bother taking care of the concubine he left to the cold palace due to his own mistakes for hurting his favorite son—Gu Yihao.

"Humph! Since he was seeking his own death, then just let him die at the hands of that undead!" The furious emperor was already unwilling to think of any plan to save the woman.

Empress Xue sighed helplessly. She did not like Honorary Concubine Yi, but that did not mean that she was so cruel. Even if the daughter of Honorary Consort Yi had hurt Princess Lailan by giving poison in the past, Princess Yu Yang was just a girl who obeyed her mother's orders.

Now that the mother and the child are running away, isn't this more unfortunate?
