Bai Qingyan looked heavily at Tuoba Yao, her gaze deep and full of disapproval, hoping Tuoba Yao would understand... In the future, he must not treat his life so recklessly.
"Enough!" Bai Qingyan said these two words, and only then did Tuoba Yao let go of the sword hilt.
The heavy longsword fell from the bloodied hands of the Empress of Dongyi Kingdom, she collapsed to the ground and was tightly held by her maid, her fingers and palms exposed... visible bones, with clear sword marks on the bones, indicating that Tuoba Yao really wasn't afraid of death and was ready to stab himself.
Seeing their empress in a frightened state, the maid hurriedly tore off a piece of her clothing to bandage the empress's hand wound, then turned and bowed to Bai Qingyan: "Emperor of Zhou! I beg you to let the Imperial Physician in to bandage Her Majesty! If Her Majesty dies from excessive blood loss here, it would be of no benefit to Zhou either!"
