A family inclined to kindness and charity would grace the descendants.
Thanks to one small act of kindness,
by providence she comes across a grateful friend;
Fortunate that her mother,
has done an unperceived good deed….

Men should rescue the distressed and aid the poor…
Who would have guessed that kindness in this world ultimately would be the road that one must choose, that proverbial fork in the road?

Clouds of rain float on eastern winds as new vines start to blossom.
Though drums of war roar too loudly and their brilliance has been lost,
a green grass carpet greets the sun by the break of morning.
Let us wait for the yellow leaves, a few gourds are harvested.

A streak of lightning flashed in the dark clouds above Jingdou. An instant later, the muffled sound of thunder boomed out, making the entire Royal Palace shake. The heavy rain poured down and soaked everything. In a short amount of time, the water gathered above the palace and flowed down through the cracks in the glazed tile. The noise was thunderous.

It was spring. If there was thunder, it should be dry rumbling thunder. However, this stormy weather couldn't help but appear strange. No one knew if it was the heavens who were angry or the Emperor.

The Emperor walked through the great doors of Guangxin Palace and turned to slowly close the door. He took a piece of cloth from around his wrists and carefully brushed up his wet hair, without a single piece of out of place. This did not reflect his current emotion.

The Eldest Princess half leaned on the low couch. He watched him and suddenly smiled unsteadily.
