The Crown Prince found her in the abandoned palace. Song Qingcheng clutched a short blade, pointing it at him. "Do not come any closer. My family will be here soon."

The Crown Prince sneered. The entire palace was his; what did he have to fear? "Stay by my side obediently and drop that thing in your hand, or you will be nothing more than a concubine."

Song Qingcheng felt a wave of nausea. "Get away from me. I will never be with you. Never."

Enraged, the Crown Prince stepped forward. With ruthless resolve, Song Qingcheng plunged the blade into his chest. Blood trickled from the corner of his mouth as he stared at her, then down at the wound, unable to believe she had actually dared to strike him.

"You..."

The Crown Prince collapsed. Song Qingcheng gasped for air, her hand trembling as she held it beneath his nose. There was no breath.

She stumbled backward. It was over. She had ruined everything and brought disaster upon the Shen family.

Shen Runzhi arrived with the antidote. Seeing the gruesome sight on the floor, he stepped over the body and fed the medicine from the vial into Song Qingcheng’s mouth, soothing her fever and bringing cooling relief to her body.

"What do we do? I killed him. The Emperor will never spare us."

"Do not worry. Nothing will happen." Shen Runzhi raised his hand, and a signal flare soared into the sky. "It is time for someone else to sit upon this throne."

Moments later, the Shen family’s troops swarmed the palace gates, breaking through and storming the imperial city. The Emperor was seized, a blade pressed against his throat. Shen Runzhi led Song Qingcheng through the ranks of soldiers.

"You are debauched and lawless; it is time for you to go to hell." Shen Runzhi took Song Qingcheng’s hand, guided her blade toward the Emperor’s heart, and drove it home. "This is for the vengeance of our family."

In the third year of the Deren era, Shen Runzhi and his Empress, Song Qingcheng, governed the nation together. After passing the throne to their heir, the two traveled across the land, enjoying their lives together.

The End.
