     As Yunlan wake up late in the morning he was surprised his hands is untie. But as he was about to sit up, he felt painful in his butt.

     And remember the scene on what happened to him. As he tried again he felt his body loosing energy and slumped back on the bed suddenly a cold hand caressing his back. He can't stop the shiver he felt when that hand caressing him.
As that dark almond eyes look at him capturing his cute brown eyes. When Shen Wei kiss him on the forehead, "Are okey now?" His words is so gentle that Yunlan relax on his hold even though he know he is his enemy. He can't help himself to snuggle over him, making Shen Wei laugh a little for his Yunlan is recognizing him little by little.

     Yunlan I prepared a bath for you, would you like to take a bath? As Yunlan nod at him. When Shen Wei lift him up and put him in the bathtub  and immerse his body carefully in the warm water, he was surprised Yunlan never struggle on his hold. While wiping his back with a soapy towel, Yunlan tense body suddenly relax as he took the arms of Yunlan and wipe it as well. He notice  Yunlan is gazing at him intensely. "What? Why are looking at me like that?" Shen Wei almost blushed. "I remember someone looking like that but I couldn't remember who it is?" Yunlan say. As Shen Wei gave him the towel to wipe his chest, for his getting a dry towel.

     As Shen Wei envelop him with a towel and embrace him. While they were walking toward the bed and he let Yunlan sit. "Yunlan do you remember your beloved husband's face?" As Shen Wei drying him, "No....I just remembered I gave him the pendant and he gave me that beautiful smile." But suddenly a tears drop from his eyes as his shoulder shake. "But my brother killed him, that's why the pendant is very important to me..." Suddenly the pendant hang infront of him. "Then take it! It's yours! I'm giving it back to you!" As Yunlan took it. He can't help to cry over it and thank Shen Wei. As he hugged him tightly. How can Shen Wei tell him, his husband is still alive  and that's him.

     Back in the palace minister Quincheng is trying to find his General. Find him! Search every where! Don't come back until you find and bring him back to me!" He shout. As the soldiers scattered throughout the city just to find him.

     As Da quing knock at the door. He brought bad news to Shen Wei, "Where's Yunlan?" He ask. The said person is fast asleep at their bed,
griping his pendant tightly. "There searching everywhere in the city just to find him! We must leave!" Da quing said.

     As they prepared everything and went back to the road. Suddenly at the road soldiers were inspecting every carriage the came out and in.
Shen Wei suddenly stop their carriage and horses. "What we're gonna do now?!" Yezun ask his Gege. "We would wait at night before we past through it. While they were waiting. Shen Wei saw his Yunlan waking. He let Yezun held the horses and went inside to calm Yunlan. "What's going on?" As Shen Wei embrace Yunlan, "No matter what happened I won't let them have you again. We won't be separated ever... I will kill anyone who do that!" Yunlan never knew why, but it made him smile and lean his head to Shen Wei shoulder. "Is that a promise?" He accidentally said. As Shen Wei said, "Yes!"

     Midnight came, when there's no guard insight, they slowly went to the road quietly galloping the horse but suddenly an arrow almost shot Yezun. As soldiers came from their hiding place and attack the carriage. While Shen Wei and the others were fighting one of them struck a sword on Shen Wei's arms, making him in shout in pain. Before the soldier thrust a sword again at him. Yunlan shout, "Stop! Don't hurt him! Did you hear your General!" As one of them bow, sir the minister called you back to the palace!" Shen Wei got panic, "Please Yunlan! Don't leave me again!" As he hold his wounded arms. As one of the soldier said, "Don't worry the minister wants the criminals who took him!" As they were all capture by the dark soldiers.

     In the castle, the minister have already worn the Emperor's crown while the Emperor was chain at his side and prince Guo who lost his mind because Chu was killed back then in the war. As Yunlan came, with Shen Wei and the others. The minister suddenly embrace him. "My General! I miss you so much! Without your help I won't get the entire kingdom!" He said. Shen Wei and the others were shock as they see prince Guo. "What happened to him and weres Chu?!" Said Lin Jing. As the minister explain Chu was killed by the Emperor making his son gone insane! Just like my General, he order his husband to be killed, that's why he want revenge!"
Da quing suddenly shout, "Yunlan Shen Wei is still here! His alive! Why can't you see it?! Are you blind?!" Suddenly minister Quincheng order his men to slapped Da quing. All of them want to help him. But everybody was held by the soldiers. "Yunlan!" Shen Wei shout. Minister Quincheng have an idea, "My General! Get rid of that one, his only fooling you! His not your husband! Your husband is dead remember?! Get rid of him!" Shout the minister.

     As the soldiers brought the wounded Shen Wei infront and force him to kneel to them. "Cut off his head!" Shout the minister. As he gave Yunlan the sword and gaze at Shen Wei.  Shen Wei with his doe eyes looking back at Yunlan. His friends want to stop him. But the soldiers blocking them. "Yunlan! No!!!" Shout Da quing. "Don't kill my Gege! As Yezun tried to break free. Even prince Guo look at him. As Shen Wei close his eyes and wait for the sword to hit his head.   Minister Quincheng laugh loudly. Suddenly Yunlan slashed the head of............. minister Quincheng. As the head roll. All were shock even the minister allied force and their leaders. "Who will lead them now?" Said one of them. The Emperor taught Yunlan will make him lead again. But he slice his head too. As they all shout. Even Shen Wei was surprised. As Yunlan shout, "I will lead this country for now on! Who ever disobey my law I will burned their city and cut off their head!" As the other leaders about to fight. Yunlan shout to his dark soldiers to cut off their heads. As the soldiers obey only Yunlan. All of them were cut off.

      All of his friends never seen the dark side of Yunlan. As every one bow to him. And they scream, "Hail to our new Emperor!" Hail Yunlan!"
