T/N: Forgive me if the details of my translation are too much...I'm under the emotional roller coaster of what Jungkook is feeling. It makes my heart feel down and terrible. They're both suffering and it really really hurts me...

After a year, winter had arrived and it snowed heavily for several days in the capital.

Sitting outside the hall, eunuch Liu watched the emperor cough and sighed heavily. He bowed slightly and opened his mouth. "Your highness, the medicine will be cold if you don't drink it."

The emperor often gets typhoid fever in winter, but he never likes to drink medicine. The medicine that was made for him was always thrown away.

Even eunuch Liu, who was waiting on the emperor's side, couldn't understand the emperor clearly and couldn't guess his thoughts.

As the beloved youngest son of the late emperor, acquiring the throne was simple. Many people knew that the emperor had been married to the princess of the previous dynasty for nearly four years.

Eunuch Liu was very clear about the old story. The emperor killed the princess of the previous dynasty with his own hands. He also never let anyone mention her name.

However, the first thing he did when he ascended the throne was to confer a posthumous title to the princess of the previous dynasty as queen and to move her remains to the imperial mausoleum.

The remains of the princess of the previous dynasty had long been gone. What laid in the imperial mausoleum was nothing but her ashes.

Everyone thought that the new emperor was pretending, for fear that he would be scolded for a hundred years by the citizens, and that he would have a bad reputation for killing his wife.

However, eunuch Liu felt that the cold-hearted emperor seemed to have some true feelings for the little princess.

In the year that the southwest king had just won the throne and the southwest prince had just become the crown prince, eunuch Liu had seen him cry with his own eyes.

However, he would keep this secret to his grave.

Eunuch Liu still remembered that day the emperor looked at the red plum tree and suddenly vomited blood.

He looked for a doctor to see the emperor's condition, but when he came back, the emperor was gone.

When the eunuch came to the princess' hall, he heard a slight sound, like a low sob, more like a cry of regret and sorrow.

The eunuch felt that he had become crazy and his ears had started to hear weird things. How could the emperor cry? To the point that he was really in pain?

He couldn't help but walk over slightly and opened a crack in the door and looked in.

He saw the noble and cold emperor half kneeling on the ground, holding a pile of books in his hand. The emperor's eyes were at a loss as if his soul had taken away from him.

It was the first time that the eunuch Liu saw the emperor's grievance face. The emperor's tears couldn't stop falling from his eyes. He seemed to be unable to stand upright then he slowly bent down, sobbing.

He was horrified and backed a few steps, not daring to look any further as he secretly left the princess' hall.

Later, eunuch Liu learned that the books were written by the emperor and the princess when they were husband and wife.

The eunuch sympathized with the little princess in his heart, but ah, the cruelest fate was the emperor.

He walked the bloody path.
