"Brother-in-law, if you find the antidote on this trip, bring it back with you. If there is only poison, we'll go again next time. By then, we'll be familiar with the insides of the Imperial Palace and can directly take the poison.
Then, before His Majesty reaches the Imperial Tomb, rush to the Northern Underground Palace and pick all the purple blossoms.
That way, we'll achieve two goals at once."
"Baiqing is right," Lin Caisang said.

Inside the Royal Palace, the Emperor had already received news that the Imperial Tomb had been vandalized.
But that was not what angered him the most.
What made him furious was that his most trusted subordinate had run away immediately after the Imperial Tomb was destroyed, taking his entire family and disappearing without a trace.
That was a subordinate he had trusted for so many years, lavished with untold gold and treasures, yet still unable to secure a heart that could betray him at any time.
