Mua Kong was so angry, unable to contain his angers, heat wave rushed through his head causing sweats to form and drip . In a low stern voice, he commanded, "Go fetch Elder Mae to come get my son . "
Yee Len nodded, he can only comply . He rushed out the door at the speed of light and a minute later, Elder Mae came in huffing and took the Young Lord out with the bowl . It seemed Yee Len had explained the situation to Elder Mae on their way to the study chamber . She carried the Young Lord out while Yee Len closed the door .
Pao Hua wiped off his tears that does not seem to stop and continued, "With Chue Yi's last breath, he helped us escaped the fire . . . For the longest time, I hated the man named Mua Kong . If Sister did not want to go back into the Palace ever again! I would do everything in my power to make her wish come true . . . "

No one could have escape at the furious fire . Pao Hua and Hli Ja hid in the bushes until the fire subsides and there was no sight of anyone nearby . Pao Hua got out of the bush and went to get the carriage .

After a half a night and a whole day of traveling, drained and exhausted, he found a perfect spot to stop . He led the horse deep enough into a secluded wilderness . Chue Yi had bought some snacks for the brother and sister pairs to munch in the carriage . Pao Hua ate some of those snacks to gain some strength .
After Pao Hua regained some energy, he then pushed the carriage as close as possible next to a big tree trunk . With a small weapon in the carriage, he cut out a bunch of branches, leaves, bushes and covered up the carriage nicely, leaving just a small entrance . Not far from them was a cave but they chose to nestle in the camouflage carriage .
Hli Ja who now exhausted and spotting blood from the kick into her stomach doesn't move around much . In a low voice with little energy, she mumbled, "Pao Hua, untied the horses . Take them into the nearest town and trade the horses for money . Come get the paper from me and go get these ingredients from a pharmacy, buy some food, and utensils . Make sure don't get lost and come back here . "
Pao Hua went inside the carriage and took the prescriptions from Hli Ja . He nodded his head . No matter where he is in the world, he will find his way back to his sister . After he tucked the paper inside his clothes, he covered up the entrance of the carriage nicely . If one does not have keen eyes, one would missed the camouflage . Pao Hua untied the two horses and left to the nearest town .
After several hours gone by, Hli Ja heard noise outside . She waited to see who it was first . The sun was already out an hour ago . She was getting worried . Hli Ja then heard sounds of branches moving and a low whispered, "Sister, I'm back . "
Hli Ja felt relieved at the announcement . She sighed all her worries away .
