Empress Dowager Marble's illness deteriorates ...

Unfortunately, Her Majesty's tumor is diagnosed to be malignant. Her condition quickly worsens. However she has a strong will to live. Everyday she has been struggling in pain but she never gives up. It has been 2 weeks. All members of the Family are very concerned about her condition. I have been monitoring her health very closely.

It is hurting to see her suffering but her strong will to live moved me. No matter how tough it is, she never thought of giving up. Her Majesty has my utmost respect. In my eyes, her spirit is equivalent to her parents, the late Emperor and 老佛爷。

Empress Dowager Pearl block all media from the Emerald Palace. It is understandable because she has to uphold her sister's reputation and image to the Kingdom. Empress Dowager Marble is very skinny and worn out now. However she insisted on doing her rounds in the Palace. She has been eating and drinking as usual. She never once complained about her pain.

I hope she recovers although chances are bleak.

2nd Birthday of Their Majesties, Empress Dowager Pearl and Empress Dowager Marble

On the 9th October, Their Majesties celebrated their 2nd 大寿 with joyous events taking place for the next one month.

However, Empress Dowager Marble has been found with a tumor shortly after her 2nd birthday. Her appearances in public is reduced so that she can have ample rest. Medical reports will be out in a couple of weeks time to show whether the tumor is malignant or benign.

Though Empress Dowager Marble is ill, she still groom herself well and attend all events.


I hope Her Majesty recover soon. She has already reach her 2nd year, her chances of living is greatly reduced. Long Live the Empress Dowagers.

The 6th prince has recovered from his injuries. He has also learnt how to be independent after leaving both his brothers. He has since become more mature. I would say his injury is a blessing in disguise.
