Tan Xiu clenched her dress in nervousness while thinking about the situation. If they took over the palace, then it would be difficult for her to save this situation. However, she can't accept defeat without doing anything.
She took a deep breath and looked at the guard with courage, and said, " Gather all the remaining soldiers and stationed them at elevated places to attack the enemies. Also, close the doors of the palace, and assign someone guards to escort His Majesty and Her Majesty out of the palace through the secret route. And send someone to ask for help from King Liu."
The guard looked at her in confusion and asked, " Your Highness, you are not leaving? The palace will be attacked soon and you should leave with His Majesty. We will try our best to save this palace but our first priority is to save you and his majesty." the guard said.
She smiled palely and replied, " Your responsibility is to protect me and mine is to protect everyone. No matter how much I deny, I am still the princess. When my people are in such a dangerous situation and that too because of me, it's my duty to be with them and fight until my last breath. I don't want to be remembered as a coward princess."
She knows that everything is happening because of her then how can she run away from this situation shamelessly leaving everyone to die.
The guard looked at her with his eyes watered and nodded and went to execute her orders.

The gates of the palace were closed and locked from inside while secured with wooden planks to prevent it from opening while Tan Jiahao and his wife were escorted out of the palace to the safe area through the secret route. Even though Tan Xiu's mother protested a lot, since Tan Jiahao was bedridden and can't do anything, she had no choice but to follow her husband, leaving her daughter in this fiery pit.
Soon the soldiers of the enemy came in front of the palace, killing all the soldiers in their way. The summer air had a bloody smell in it which can make anyone nauseated. Tan Xiu who was looking down at the soldiers fighting with each other, through a window from the palace frowned. They had broken into the palace and the enemy soldiers were fighting with theirs and were trying to reach her.
She looked at the garden where she had planted beautiful flowers, were now covered with blood and dead bloody bodies were on the ground everywhere. The heads and other body parts were cut on the ground. The blood was splattered everywhere and the smell of blood was making her complexion pale.
She took a deep breath and turned around. She looked at herself in front of the mirror for the last time before taking her father's sword which was placed on the table, in a silver case. She looked at her family's treasured sword which was supposed to be the successor of the Tan Dynasty if her father had a son.
She finally took the sword and looked at it and said, " I might not be a boy, but unlike people, this sword doesn't differentiate between girls and boys. So, please help me. Help me to eliminate all the enemies." she said while looking at the precious sword in her hand while asking for her help for the lifeless thing to do some miracle which can turn around this moment.
Her gaze changed as she raised her head and looked towards the door. The eyes which were watering due to emotions became dark and bloody revenge took its place.

Downstairs, the soldiers were fighting when suddenly a petite figure walked with her strong steps to them and started slashing the soldiers one by one, without giving them a chance to attack. Since they were fighting with each other, they noticed her presence later and by the time, she had already killed many soldiers to death.
Her face was wrapped with a dark blue cloth while she was wearing Yuan Song's clothes which he wears before going on war. Before he left for the border, she had asked for a pair of his clothes that she wanted to keep as a souvenir but she never thought that she would get to use this here.
Although she is not good at martial arts, she has received training and she knows how to use swords and archery as well. Since her father was preparing her to take over the reign if she did not get married by then, he made her learn everything as a successor.
She never thought that the training she used to hate a lot, will come helpful in this dangerous time.
They fought for a few hours but the fight doesn't seem to be ending soon and the consequences seem to be now dire. Tan Xiu slashed one's throat while stabbing a soldier on his abdomen, someone on the back, and cut someone's head. The scenario was bloody and she was like a bloodthirsty woman, trying to save her country from this revengeful attack.
She was attacking like crazy but she didn't realize that someone was behind her and when she sensed someone's shadow over her before she could react, the person attacked her and the sword slashed through her skin, leaving a deep cut on her arm. The force caused her to turn around, resulting in her sword falling on the ground.
Her mask also falls off, causing her silky hair to be unveiled to everyone. They were shocked because they didn't realize that they were fighting with a girl all this while. '
" Your Highness!" her guard who was fighting with the other soldier, saw this scene and was shocked seeing her fallen on the ground, while her sword was far from her. He tried to help her but the other soldier attacked him, keeping him busy in this hustle.
" So she is the Princess huh? Let me finish this war for once and all." the soldier who attacked her snickered and raised his sword to slash her neck when out of nowhere the soldier was stabbed in the back.
" AHH," he cried out before his bloody body slumped on the ground and closed his eyes forever.
Tan Xiu who had her eyes closed in fear and shock, afraid of the coming pain but to her surprise, the sword didn't come and she didn't felt the pain. When she opened her eyes hesitantly, she squealed in shock when the soldier's body fell beside her.
She hesitantly and expectantly raised her head to look at the person, " Commander Yua…."
