Huang Yuanqing gave a weak smile, "Your Highness, you overpraise me. It's my duty."
"Fulfilling one's duty is not easy," Chu Liezhao snorted, "How many in this world can truly fulfill their duty!"
"Elder brother—!"
The two young ladies, Chu Zhen and Chu Qiao, were immediately overjoyed, leaping with joy.
Consort Hui said sternly, "Zhao'er, what exactly happened?"
He was sent back in a coma by two Hidden Guards, and immediately after, the two guards succumbed to their injuries and died.
Their lives were not valuable enough, unworthy to use the Great Bright Heart Protecting Pill.
At the brink of death, the two Hidden Guards said that the Ninth Prince was ambushed by a Demon Clan expert, and they were ashamed for failing in their duties to protect His Highness on time, but fought to bring him back.
