Country M.

A servant hurried in and b.u.mped into a man in black coming out. He respectfully made way. “Lord Shadow.”

“Mm.”

Shadow was about to brush past him when he saw the box he was carrying. It looked like a package. He stopped and looked. Then, he asked, “What are you holding?”

“Ah?” The servant was stunned for a moment before he presented the box with both hands. “It’s a delivery for the Empress.”

Shadow subconsciously took the box. It was not heavy, as if there was nothing inside.

He saw that the recipient was the Empress, but his eyes darkened at the sender. His knife-like gaze landed on the servant, and he asked with a suppressed tone, “Who sent it?”

“A courier delivered it. He left after putting it down.” The servant was at a loss.

He did not notice it, either.

After all, it was just a delivery.

“He left after putting it down.” He tried hard to recall, then said in a terrified tone, “Lord Shadow, is there something wrong?”

Shadow was not in the mood to care about him. He walked back with the package and said, “I’ll bring it in for you!’

The manor’s largest bedroom was lit with incense that nourished one’s Qi and focused one’s mind. The room was filled with a dull fragrance.

Shadow naturally stepped lightly as he walked in.

“Why are you back?” The Empress’s emotionless voice rang out behind the draperies.

Shadow stood firmly in front of the curtain. The delivery box in his hands was hot. He hesitated momentarily and then respectfully said, “Empress, someone sent you a package.”

“A package?” The tone of the person behind the curtain was strange as if she was surprised.

Who would send her a package?

Shadow said with difficulty, “The sender wrote your name.”

After a brief surprise, the Empress’s emotions did not fluctuate much. “Oh, who is the sender?”

She could roughly guess who it was. Her voice changed from calm to sinister. “Is it that b.a.s.t.a.r.d again?”

Shadow had been by her side for so many years. He knew very well where her thunder point was and who she was talking about. “No.”

“If it’s not her, then who is it?” The Empress was interested.

Shadow paused awkwardly for a few seconds. Then, he raised his eyes slightly and said in a low voice, “The sender is Ji Qing.”

The sound of something shattering immediately sounded from behind the curtains.

Then, there was a long silence.

Shadow knelt on one knee and did not dare to raise his head.

“Ha.” Anger could be detected in the Empress’s voice as she suppressed the prairie fire. “How dare she use this name to send me a package!’ This name was like a taboo. No one dared to mention it in front of her.

Shadow did not dare to speak.

The Empress suppressed her anger and opened the package. Inside the box was a printed     paper.

There were only a few words written on it.

A piece of paper?

She picked up the paper and looked at it. The handwriting was flamboyant, and the few words were written arrogantly.

[You want her dead because of anti-nuclear weapons?]

The Empress’s expression changed drastically. She gripped the paper tightly, and her breathing stopped for a moment. She opened her mouth, but quickly closed it again.

“Are you alright?” Shadow asked softly after seeing no movement from inside for a long time.

“Take a look at this.” The Empress pa.s.sed the piece of paper to him through a breach in the curtains.

Shadow stood up and took it silently. After taking a glance, he was as shocked as the Empress, as if he knew a huge secret.

“She—
