A Concubine’s Odyssey

“Do you want to take me?”

waste with them, afraid I wouldn’t be able to stop Night Lock, who was injured. With so many people around Liu Yu, how could he be her match?

The two soldiers still looked at me in disbelief, as if they had unexpectedly found what they’d been searching for. After a while, they respectfully said, “The King of Chen is at the government office. Please, miss, we’ll prepare a car to take you right away.”
