I sighed heavily in my heart. She could finally no longer restrain herself.
The eunuch outside, seeing no one was receiving the imperial decree, entered the room without waiting for our response.
“Which one is Ran Yan’er? Come with me!” The eunuch held the imperial decree but did not read it, only speaking softly.
Consort Yu seemed to have no suspicions, just giving me a look to go out.
I followed him, not knowing what was going to happen.
“Miss, you should leave the palace quickly! The State Master asked me to tell you that after going out, do not return here, or the consequences will be beyond what you can bear!” The eunuch said, following Shui Zixi’s instructions.
“Was it Shui Zixi who sent you?” I suddenly became confused about the situation.
“Yes, the State Master truly has foresight. If it were an hour later, you would likely be in the King’s bedchambers by now!” His words made me freeze on the spot.
I murmured, my heart trembling, wondering what Weiluo’s mother was going to do to me: “Is it Cang Lian’s bedchambers?”
Conspiracy (Part Four)
He nodded at me and continued walking towards the palace gate.
“The State Master asked this servant to tell you that if you truly have someone or something you cannot let go of, he will help you. You should leave here as soon as possible. Consort Yu is not as simple as you think, and Young Master Weiluo is not as deeply affectionate as you see.” The eunuch sighed while speaking. He had been in this palace for over forty years and had seen through many people’s hearts.
“Someone I cannot let go of? He will help me, is that right? Then why doesn’t he come and tell me himself!” My voice was calm, but my heart was aching with an inexplicable pain that invaded my entire body.
Just as I was speaking with the eunuch, my path was suddenly blocked by a group of strangely dressed palace maids.
“Eunuch, where are you going? Leaving the palace?” The palace maid spoke in a gloomy voice, with a chilling look in her eyes that was frightening. Her robust build blocked my and the eunuch’s way.
