Introduction

"Where is she?!?" The emperor yelled as he stood up from his throne. His eyes bloodthirsty and ready to tear anyone who dares to define his order. "TELL ME RIGHT NOW! I DEMAND TO KNOW!" He yelled. The servants body was shivering as she kneeled down in front of her master. "S....she's nowhere to be found. She left with the baby-" "SHE TOOK OUR SON!" He went insane. His heir and his queen weren't in the palace.

"She left this, on her bed" the servant said, sliding the letter towards the emperor's feet. He snatched it from her and read what his beloved wrote:

It will only be a matter of time,

I know I can not have you all to myself

But I'm selfish for your love

I yearn for your attention and I desire you all to myself

I bid goodbye, not as a queen, not as a mother, but as myself

I have known for the past 2 months, there is another

And call me selfish, but I do not want to sleep at night, knowing that I could be replaced as the one who has your heart. I took Chenglei with me, knowing that once your concubine gives birth, you won't have time for my child.

My love for you is eternal

~ Hien Lixue

The emperor stood up. "Get me my horse!" He shouted and walked out the throne room. He changed into proper clothes and went to his horse. "Alert my special force. The empress has been kidnapped" he said with no emotion in his voice.
