Empress Ni Shang cried, "What should we do? What should we do? Husband, you must have a way to escape, right?"
"Escape? No, I won't escape," the Little Rakshasa King said. "The moment I escape, I've entirely lost. I'll stay in the Crown Prince's Manor, going nowhere."
"Then, what should we do?" Empress Ni Shang asked.
The Little Rakshasa King replied, "Now, we can only count on Lanling."
Empress Ni Shang wept, "We can't count on Lanling anymore. I secretly sent someone to write a letter to him for help, but he was completely indifferent. Besides, we can no longer send anyone to notify him, we can't seek help from him anymore."
The Little Rakshasa King said, "There's no need to ask him for help, nor to contact him. He knows what to do."
Empress Ni Shang asked, "How do you know? Did you communicate with him earlier?"
The Little Rakshasa King replied, "Not at all."
Empress Ni Shang asked, "Then how do you know he knows what to do?"
