In the early morning, the sky just hinted at first light.
The earth was still shrouded in mist.
Inside the Buddhist Hall.
The little maid leaned against the wall and fell asleep.
A gust of wind blew, jolting her awake from the cold.
She opened her drowsy eyes and saw Princess Nanzhang lying on the ground.
The maid thought Princess Nanzhang, like her, couldn't bear it and fainted from exhaustion.
Quickly, she got up and took a cloak to cover Princess Nanzhang.
The little maid shrank back to the corner and went back to sleep.
Sleeping in the morning was not as sound as at night; she woke up twice to see Princess Nanzhang still in the same position.
Only then did the little maid sense something was wrong and called out a few times.
No one responded to her.
The little maid's face turned pale.
She hurriedly ran outside, breaking the morning's silence with urgency—
"Something's wrong! The Commandery Princess has fainted!"
