Inside the main tent, Jane stood by the sand table, overlooking the entire Romenia terrain map. She appeared casual, but there was an unmistakable sharpness to her gaze, one that seemed to look down on everything.Wallace quickly walked in."Commander, Shane is dead."Jane wasn't surprised at all. Without lifting her head, she asked, "What about the woman's family?""I've sent them safely out of the military camp. No one saw them committing the crime."Jane slightly lowered her chin. "Hmm. That's fine then."Wallace looked worried. "Commander, what about Commander Saul? His nephew's death... Can he still focus on the battle?""Not everyone in the Southern Battalion has a dead nephew. He's the only one." Jane's tone remained indifferent. "If the commander can't focus on the fight, he should pull back. As long as the Southern Battalion can still fight, it's not a huge issue.""Understood!"After Wallace stepped out, Commander Saul stormed in their part of the camp.He pushed pa

Bang!The moment the door to the meditation room opened, Steven was met with a figure blocking his sight, who exited and swiftly shut the door again.The man turned around—it was none other than Cain Lucille of Radiant Sanctuary.Cain, in his fifties, moved with agility, exuding both gentleness and unyielding strength, much like the philosophy of harmony."Blessings must be completed with sincerity from start to finish. Her Majesty is in seclusion, chanting scriptures. I have been entrusted with ensuring that no one disturbs her," he announced calmly.Steven had heard of Cain's reputation.During the previous king's reign, Cain had been a formidable commander. Burdened by the bloodshed he had caused, he chose to leave the battlefield and devote himself to religion.Near Radiant Sanctuary, he had also established a small monastery, Mercy Temple, to shelter orphans and the displaced.His countless good deeds had earned him great respect among the common people.With Cain standin

Four hours later, they were nearing Radiant Sanctuary.George rode his horse under the night sky, dressed in a dark robe embroidered with silver trim. His gaze was sharp and penetrating, black as ink.Karlsen followed closely behind.The king was burdened with state affairs, yet he had personally come here in the dead of night for the queen. It was an unusual display of personal involvement.Radiant Sanctuary was especially quiet at night.Upon hearing of the king's arrival, Cain personally came to the temple gates to greet him. He appeared remarkably calm."Your Majesty, the queen is in deep prayer…"George was not as easy to brush off as Steven.Before Cain could finish, George coldly interrupted, "What? Do you think I would disrupt her prayers?"Cain lowered his head slightly, showing deference. "That is not what I meant, Your Majesty."Without another word, George strode directly into the temple, making his way straight to the meditation room.Cain remained where he stoo

George and Jane sat in the same litter, while others rode horses. Lily, being a woman, sat on the litter's shaft.In front of Radiant Sanctuary, Cain watched the carriage leave, and a young monk beside him worriedly spoke up, "Master, will there be any consequences from leaving before the prayers were finished?"Cain clasped his hands together and replied, "No, the prayers have been completed."-Inside the litter, Jane soon woke up, but she wasn't fully conscious. Her awareness hadn't completely returned, and she seemed to be in a dreamlike state.The doctor had said she caught a cold, but the truth was she had rushed back to the Royal City without properly treating her injuries, which had led to a fever.She felt unwell, and the carriage was stuffy. Driven by instinct, she lifted the curtain, hoping for some fresh air.Suddenly, a large hand reached out and pulled her back in.A man's cold, low warning echoed in her ear."Stop fidgeting!"Jane was forced to sit back down.

Lily had a quick-witted idea."Your Majesty, the queen is sweating a lot. Let me wipe her down."After that, George got up from the bedside.Within the drawn curtains of the bed, Lily loosened the queen's belt and inner garments. Sure enough, the wound had reopened. If it wasn't treated soon, the blood would seep out. She had made it in time.While Lily busied herself inside, George sat outside.His gaze was cold as he stared out the window. The night was dark, as if hiding a beast ready to leap out and devour people.As someone was already tending to the queen, George stood up, ready to return to Tyrian Palace.But then, something in the corner caught his attention.It was a chest—likely part of the queen's dowry. The carvings of lions on it were incredibly lifelike.Even in the palace, such craftsmanship was rare.He walked over and suddenly noticed something off about the brick under his foot.It felt loose.His gaze darkened as he looked down…-Jane's injury wasn't s

After the morning court session, George went straight to Zen Palace.Lily, in a rush to fetch medicine, nearly collided with the king's sedan. Startled, she dropped to her knees with a thud."Y-Your Majesty!"George walked past her without a glance and entered the main chamber.No one was more delighted by the king's visit to Zen Palace than Maya. While Lily went to fetch medicine for the queen, Maya eagerly went to serve the king.She brought over tea and refreshments, her eyes brimming with joy.Steven stood by the cedarwood door to the inner chamber. Just as she was about to enter to serve them, Steven blocked her way.Maya looked at him in confusion.Steven lowered his voice and reminded her, "His Majesty is speaking with Her Majesty. No one is to disturb them."Maya's smile froze.Lily had already stopped her from attending to the queen, and now Steven was keeping her from the king as well. What kind of head maid was she if she couldn't do anything?Inside the bedchambe

With the northern borders secured, Jane had returned to Zen Palace to continue investigating the mysterious figure. But the clues stopped at those two letters—there was nothing else.It was as if she had hit a dead end, unable to move forward or back."Your Majesty, it's time for your medicine." Lily entered with the medicine in hand, only to find Jane still staring at the two letters.Jane took the bowl with one hand and drank it all in a few quick gulps.Lily stared at the empty bowl, momentarily stunned. The medicine was so bitter—how could Jane bear it?Jane suddenly lifted her gaze, looking toward the chamber's entrance.There were more secret guards in Zen Palace again. What else did George want to investigate about her?The next day, Gloria entered the palace.Seeing Jane's pale complexion, she felt a pang of heartache."Your Majesty, your health should come first."Nidora had so many soldiers—why did Jane, a woman, have to lead troops into battle? As a mother, all s

George gazed deeply at the figure slumped over the horse's back. She looked as if she were drunk, dazed and unsteady. Her hand hung limply with blood staining her palm…-Lily arrived at the royal stable, only to see the king carrying the queen out."King George, Queen Wendy!" She hurriedly curtsied. What had happened to Jane?George carried Wendy back to Zen Palace and had the physician treat her wounds.Lily knelt on the floor, trembling. George sat at the bedside like an immovable statue, his presence so imposing that she dared not look up. Fear gripped her heart.After bandaging Jane's hand, the physician bowed and reported, "Your Majesty, the queen's hand injury is not serious. However, her body has yet to recover—she must not ride again."Once the physician was dismissed, George turned to Lily, his gaze sharp and piercing."How did the queen get injured?"Lily truly did not know."Your Majesty, I was ordered to escort Madam Gloria out of the palace. I did not see…" she

Kennedy had always been mild-tempered, but even he had reached his limit. He crumpled the letter into a ball, and still unsatisfied, he burned it."Honey, just ignore it!" he said. "Jane will always be our child! Unless she refuses to acknowledge us as her parents, we will never abandon her!"Marissa chuckled at his reaction, her earlier anger dissipating. Then, she turned to another matter."Jocelyn went to the Royal City to report in Jane's place. She should be arriving soon, right?"Kennedy nodded. "Yes, it should be around now."Marissa sighed. "I was against it from the beginning. Now, I can only hope she gets through it safely."Kennedy patiently reassured her."The king has sent multiple decrees. Each time, we have cited instability at the border as a reason to delay reporting to the Royal City. But now, some have submitted petitions accusing us of holding too much power and being arrogant because of our achievements."With this recent victory over Romenia, the border ha
