Lin Xueyao walked forward and knocked on the door gently. The eunuch watching the night asked inside the door: "Who is it?"
"It's me" Lin Xueyao responded
When the eunuch heard that it was her, he quickly opened the door and said, "Oh, Miss Xueyao, why are you here so late? Come in quickly."
Lin Xueyao nodded and walked in, "Has Concubine Wan gone to bed?"
The eunuch looked back at Concubine Wan's bedroom, sighed and said, "I've been working hard most of the night, and I'm afraid I won't be able to sleep again."
Lin Xueyao lowered her eyes and said, "I'll go in first."
The eunuch stopped her and said, "Miss Xueyao, my master is soft-hearted and timid. Don't blame her..."
Lin Xueyao nodded and said, "I know."
After saying that, she turned around and walked towards the bedroom
What does she have to blame? It was all her fault in the first place. She was allowed to enter the palace and become someone else's palm just like herself, and it almost harmed her.
In the bedroom, Concubine Wan was sitting on the couch, looking at the ground with empty eyes.
Lin Xueyao opened the bead curtain and walked in. Looking at the pale-faced Concubine Wan, her steps stopped abruptly.
Concubine Wan should also know that all this was her own decision and not the intention of the Queen Mother. She was really confused. Why did she come to Chuxiu Palace? How should she face her? What should she say?
Sensing someone entering the hall, Concubine Wan raised her head and saw that it was Lin Xueyao. She quickly came to her senses and said, "Sister Xueyao, why are you here so late? Sit down quickly."
Lin Xueyao was slightly startled, nodded, walked over and sat on the couch.
"You..." Lin Xueyao said hesitantly, but she didn't know what to ask.
"I'm fine, the Queen Mother didn't pursue anything." Concubine Wan smiled bitterly.
Lin Xueyao stopped talking, just lowered her head and looked at the corner of her clothes
"Sister Xueyao..." Concubine Wan suddenly took her hand and said: "These days when I entered the palace, I was really confused. The only person I can trust in this palace is you, but you let me
I don’t know whether I should continue to believe it or not. I can’t kill someone, but why should I die even if I don’t kill someone?”
Lin Xueyao's eyes trembled slightly, "I..."
"Later, I realized that I had become a pawn in the hands of others. I had to kill whoever she asked me to kill. If she wanted me to die, I would die. I am nothing..." Concubine Wan said
, red eyes
Lin Xueyao choked up when she heard her words, "Why am I not?"
"But... we have to accept our fate. Even if we risk our lives, we will definitely be unable to defeat her. We can only become mermaids and be controlled by others..." Concubine Wan said with a bitter smile.
"No..." Lin Xueyao suddenly raised her head, looked at her, and said seriously: "If we really have to risk our lives, it's not that we have no chance of winning. It's just that none of us have thought about resisting."
Concubine Wan was startled when she heard this, and said in surprise: "Sister... what do you mean by that?"
Lin Xueyao held Concubine Wan's hand and said seriously: "Sister, it was me who brought you into such a place of right and wrong. Now, our life and death are in the hands of others. Since it is all death, why not give it a try?!
Maybe you and I, sisters, can work together and one day be able to stand out and be able to control your own destiny..."
Concubine Wan covered her mouth and said in shock: "Sister, do you know what you are talking about? If the Queen Mother listens to such words, you and I will die without a burial place!"
Lin Xueyao said coldly: "Then, we will take her life first."
