Time Travelling: My Love from the Royal Family

"Didn't you know that Howard had conspired with Kevin?" The emperor couldn't believe what he'd just heard. It was Charles who raised Howard. He didn't have any idea how traitorous Howard was. And now it was all because of his carelessness. He should've been more careful, but it was all too late now.

"Your Majesty, I had no idea this was happening behind our backs. If Commander Ken hadn't found the rebellious letters in that rogue's room, maybe they would have still had me in the palms of their hands." Tears ran down Charles' cheeks and his shaking lips showed he was more than heartbroken. The betrayal felt like a knife stabbing him when he least expected it. "I'm loyal and devoted to you, Your Majesty. If I had known what Howard had done, I would have killed him. Your Majesty, I'm innocent."

The emperor's eyes were distant, and Charles received no reply from him. Instead, he turned to the commander of the palace guards, Ken Zhang, who handed him the evidence that he had been task

t the hereditary position and had since been guarding the south domain. He was a ladies' man and had a lot of concubines and daughters. But he didn't have a son. If Howard was indeed his son, would the father be willing to pay some price to save him?

"Jerry," Felix called out.

"Yes, Your Highness."

"Take this jade pendant to the south domain at once to see Harrison. Ask him if I should save its owner. I will let Howard live until you come back," Felix said slowly, a small smile forming on his lips.

"Yes, Your Highness."

As soon as Jerry left, Felix looked at the board beside him and played Go as if there was no one else there. 'There is a rebellion from Kevin in the north domain and Harrison is guarding the south domain. Father will surely take back the troops of the north domain. I wonder who'll be responsible for this then. But, my brother Hoffman is in the south domain. Who would Harrison choose then? His nephew Hoffman or his son Howard?' he thought to himself.
