   Yulong Empire, Fire Break Commandery City

The Yulong Empire was divided into five hundred commanderies each with a governor ruling almost autonomously from the capital.

Fire Break Commandery was one of the smallest and least powerful.

In a large luxurious mansion of one of the powers that ruled over this commandery city, a pretty woman lay on a chubby bed in a broken-down pavillion. Her legs were spread wide open. She was screaming her lungs out. Whatever was happening, she did not want it to happen, not now.

"Just one more month. A month is all I need," she screamed as tears rolled down her pretty face.

She was giving birth to her first child.

The only problem was that it was still within five years since the empress had ordered all newborn babies to be killed without exception. She had heard that even princes and princesses born during these five years had been put to death.
