Eternal Love: A Love Story - Chapter 758

Ji Dynasty.

On the full-moon night, when the country was in chaos due to the sudden attack on the borders, the imperial court was in turmoil due to the absence of the Empire’s sovereign. The security was tightened, the guards were ordered to patrol around the palace at night.

” Oh, Did you hear that sound?” A guard who was patrolling at night asked his fellow guard when he heard the sound of some groaning.

The other guard shook his head and waved his hand, ” I think your ears are ringing. I didn’t hear anything. Let’s go to the other side.” He persuaded him.

The guard was confused and wondered if he was thinking too much. Since the day, the borders were attacked, the palace security was tightened and was on high alert. However, due to this reason, they have seen many false alarms, causing disturbance in the palace.

In the end, he agreed to his friend’s suggestion and went to check the backside of the palace, ignoring the sound coming from the pond-side area.

” Hah!!” Ji Cheng’s eyes snapped open when he regained his consciousness. He panted as he tried to register the things that happened. He was doing the ritual with everyone at the abandoned palace when the clear weather suddenly turned windy and loud thunder could be heard.

He remembered seeing a white light emerging from the hairpins that were burning together in the fire, but after that, he doesn’t remember anything. He sat up while using his hands for support, his body was feeling weak as if all of his energy had been drained from doing farming all day long at the farm.

He frowned when he realized that he was not lying on the barren, cracked soil ground of the abandoned palace but the moist-green grass. He looked around but when he saw the grandiose palace and the large trees covering the garden area, his mouth parted in shock, ” We’re back!” he exclaimed in surprise.

A relieved smile appeared on his lips as he couldn’t believe that they were back at the palace.

” Ah, Zhao Ming!” His pupils widened in shock when he remembered Zhao Ming. He looked around and saw Zhao Ming lying unconscious near the edge of the pond. Her body was near the edge of the pond and if she turned around, she would fall into the pond.

His eyes widened seeing her body moving around, squirming in pain. ” Zhao Ming!!” He shouted when he saw her turning to her side, almost falling into the pond.

Before she could turn around, he caught up to her and pulled her back from the edge of the pond. He sits beside her and places her head on his lap.

” Zha…Zhao Ming..” His voice quivers when he calls out, her pale complexion and unconscious state for scaring him. Her lips turned white, her hands were cold and other than groaning in pain, she was not responding in any way.

His eyes unconsciously went to her abdomen, her hands were holding onto her stomach as if she was in pain. She was in a half-unconscious state, she was feeling the pain but she couldn’t seem to hear his voice.

” Zhao Ming…does your stomach hurt?” He asked worriedly. When he woke up, he felt a sharp pain as if someone had stabbed him with three different swords at the same time. He has fought numerous battles and has gotten injured and stabbed uncountable times, despite that he couldn’t bear that pain.

It must be much more painful for her since she is painful, it’s much more dangerous for her and the baby.

He stood up and tried to pick her up. His legs were wobbly and there is barely any energy in his body. However, he still picked her in a princess style and started to walk towards the palace, ” IS SOMEONE THERE? GUARDS?” He shouted, trying to gather help for her.

Wen Ru was in an emergency meeting with the war affairs minister in the study room as they were going through the strategies to be followed to deal with the situation at the border. Ji Zhelan and L country’s troops were pressuring their men on the border with their large number of soldiers and weapons, which was putting the Empire in a dangerous and insecure situation.

” MASTER WEN RU!!” The door of the room was flung open, as Feng Ju barged into the room, disturbing the meeting.

Wen Ru frowned and was startled to see his worried expressions. Seeing his expressions, his heart started to sink. He hurriedly stood up and walked up to him, ” Is there any news regarding His or Her Majesty?”

Feng Ju bit his lower lips and nodded hesitantly. He glanced at the minister with hesitance and leaned closer to whisper the news in Wen Ru’s ears. Although the ministers have already found out about Ji Cheng and Zhao Ming’s disappearance, he wanted to keep this news a secret for now, until it has been announced by His Majesty himself. Find authorized novels in , faster updates, better experience, Please click #’re-back!!_51978390621715425 for visiting.

Wen Ru’s eyes widened in shock when he heard his words. He glanced at him in trouble, but seeing him nodding, he clenched his fits and dashed out of the room leaving the minister standing there in confusion. Feng Ju also followed him out, asking the guard standing outside to escort the minister out of the room.

Ji Cheng stared at Zhao Ming who was lying on the bed, with her black hair spread on the soft pillow. Her face pale, and she still hasn’t regained her consciousness fully. She groans in pain sometimes but hasn’t opened her eyes properly, to meet his gaze.

He was sitting on the bed beside her while holding her one hand worriedly and glanced at the Imperial Physician who was checking her pulse while holding her hand in his.

As the imperial physician was checking her pulse, Wen Ru barged into the room, with Feng Ju following behind him. He paused in his steps when he saw Ji Cheng holding onto Zhao Ming’s hand while looking at her worriedly.

When Feng Ju told him that Ji Cheng and Zhao Ming had returned to the palace and went to the Main palace, he couldn’t believe it. That’s why he came here without wasting a minute to check if the news was correct or not.

He sighed in relief and walked towards the bed where Zhao Ming was lying, ” Brother, where have you been all this while? Do you know how much we were worried about you when we couldn’t find out about your whereabouts?” He asked worriedly.

Feng Ju standing behind him nodded, as he was also worried about their whereabouts and couldn’t help but think of the worst-case scenario. Since the ministers have found out about the disappearance of His and Her Majesty at the imperial court two days ago, it has caused everyone’s trust to waver.

The absence of a king during the time of war can make the people disappointed and feel insecure and can affect their loyalty to the crown. That’s what makes the situation even worse.

Wen Ru’s words passed through Ji Cheng’s ears like wind, not affecting his expressions at all. He didn’t even turn to look at him and just waited for the imperial physician to announce his diagnosis.

” How is she? Why isn’t she waking up?” Ji Cheng asked worriedly. He remembers seeing Zhao Ming’s face while doing the ritual, and she looked like she was suffering and going through immense pain while doing so, but she didn’t stop the ritual for the sake of everyone.
