Eunuch Hong was killed, and Her Majesty the Empress was kidnapped; both parties in charge met their doom. The remaining palace maids and eunuchs were either slain by the masters of the Ten Thousand Sword Sect or knelt in surrender.
Chu Feng stormed into the Kunning Palace of the Empress, only to see a large cage in the center, where a disheveled old man was locked inside.
Ravished by hunger, he was now but skin and bones.
"Master, the person locked in that cage is the Jianyun Emperor! This servant happened to have seen him twice, so I could recognize him," Li Shishi whispered softly.
"You old dog of Jianyun, your day has come! Do you still recognize who I am?"
Chu Jianlan's expression was ferocious as he approached the cage with his sword.
This old dog was actually imprisoned by his own son and Empress in a cage, being kept like a dog and, seeing how hungry he looked, probably wasn't even properly fed.
He must have suffered a lot of abuse.
