571 Zhao Wang Lei's Thoughts

As Zhao Wang Lei walked through the dark corridors of the Imperial Palace in hurry with Eunuch Wang who held the lamp for him, he couldn't help but thank his mother silently inside his heart.

When he had killed that old physician, he had also ordered to destroy this garden but it was his mother's message sent to him that stopped him from doing so.

At that time, he had thought that he had already disappointed her enough, the only thing she was asking from him was that small garden to be kept and take care of, he could grant that small wish of hers so he let that garden stay in the Imperial Palace.

When had he thought that he would need the same garden one day to save the life of his beloved woman?  He never wondered how General Li and Xi Ying knew about the garden.

He was just thankful that they knew about the garden so that they could come here. Otherwise, he would have perhaps killed everyone in this Empire and then himself.
