"Nothing is for free."

Unable to heed the advice of the wise, Yunning yelled after Jolie asking her what she meant. After Jolie left Boran followed without comforting Yunning or saying anything to her.

This made Yunning very upset. Desperate to have anyone on her side she called after him. "Boran, was I wrong? He deserves to die," she said but Boran seemed quite defeated. He knew she was right. Who here didn't know what Eling had done but like he had mentioned before, he was loyal to King Luo and no one else. He didn't understand why King Luo's attitude towards Eling had changed but he didn't question it.

"Your highness you should remember that he is his majesty. He is not a child. He knows what he is doing."

That he was right. King Luo knew exactly what he was doing. With the moon hanging high in the sky, King Luo walked into the small dining room Boran and Yunning had gathered in. They were in the middle of eating dinner. Neither Jolie nor Qie Xieling was there.
