A pair of slender, bony fingers pressed against his lips, and a sharp whistle broke the silence.
In an instant, twelve dark shadows broke through the window and entered, their black iron masks gleaming coldly in the candlelight.
The palace door burst open, and Commander Xue led the Yulin Guards in and surrounded the palace.
"Is the Emperor going to kill his mother?"
The Buddhist beads in the Empress Dowager's hand broke with a snap, and the jade beads rolled all over the ground.
Xuan Ling stepped barefoot on the cold jade bricks, bloodshot eyes:
