294: Turn the tide!

At this moment, Princess Ji Hui, the closest to the blast zone, stood on the third step of the Sacrificial Altar, a good dozen meters from the explosion.

When the explosion occurred, she felt a massive force suddenly rush towards her, knocking her to the ground.

However, she was quickly caught and lifted up by the minister behind her and did not get hurt.

She could only watch helplessly as her husband, Grand Duke Lan Shi, was blown to bits and then saw Princess Mo Ping, whom she despised, perish in the flames.

Initially, what she felt was fear, shock.

But then, a bright light flashed before her eyes, and her heart trembled; this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

She had already given up hope for her son to win the succession.

Everyone knew that the Crown Prince was sure to win this time as the Rage Wave Kingdom turned a blind eye to sending out three hundred thousand troops to subjugate Rouran.
