Wei Yuewu did not expect to be able to see the palace from this direction. She had already seen the name of the palace before, so when she saw it again, she immediately stopped.
From this direction, it looked even more deserted and was a little further away from the main palace path ahead. No one would notice her if she went through the small path, so Wei Yuewu was intrigued.
She was so curious to check out the palace! She wanted to go there right now!
Her childhood memories all pointed to this palace, as if there was something guiding her. She subconsciously walked forward.
"Stop right there! Sixth Miss Wei, what do you want to do?" A cold voice came from behind her, carrying a bit of imperceptible anxiety and urgency.
Jin Ling had already turned around one step ahead of her. Wei Yuewu also stopped and watched in shock as the Third Prince was walking over with his hands behind his back.
"Greetings,
"Miss, please come over and take a look at this. I-It's..." Jin Ling frowned as she pointed at a dark corner of the palace wall.It was a small but fixed hole in the wall that looked a bit like a dog door. It was fixed by piling up a few bricks negligently. The bricks were covered with moss, and they blended with the hue of the surrounding palace walls. Apparently, the walls had weathered through the years.However, it was unexpected to see such an untimely hole in such a tall and magnificent palace. Even if the wall had been broken before, the palace guards should have repaired it properly instead of fixing it in such a sloppy way. Perhaps it was the reason why Shufang Palace did not have a Master.Otherwise, why would they negligently fix the wall instead of patching up the hole decently?Looking at the sloppily patched hole on the wall, Wei Yuewu inexplicably felt as if someone was suffocating her and she couldn't breathe
Could such a thing be given away so casually?This was the first thought that flashed across Wei Yuewu's mind as soon as she saw the item inside the jewelry box. She pressed the box hard."Miss, this is a Phoenix Hairpin!" Jin Ling opened her eyes wide and exclaimed in disbelief.Phoenix hairpin. The Nine-Phoenix Hairpin. Wen Tianyao actually gave her the Nine-Phoenix Hairpin!Wei Yuewu had seen this kind of hairpin before. It was part of Wei Yan's plot back then when she tried to harm her and sent her a real Nine-Phoenix Hairpin.In the end, Wei Yuewu gave Wei Yan a dose of her own medicine using the hairpin.Although the hairpin in the box right now looked a little different from the one Wei Yan gave her, the nine phoenixes looked very distinctive. In fact, this hairpin was even more exquisite and beautiful.The gems hanging in the phoenixes' mouths were all bright and colorful, revea
"How is it? Are you ready?" Yan Huaijing, who was dressed in a snow-white fur coat, curled his thin lips into a gentle smile."Alright," Wei Yuewu nodded and sighed helplessly, pretending not to hear his gentle and refined question. Judging from his overbearing personality, she knew that he wouldn't take no for an answer.Wei Yuewu speculated that she had to be prepared immediately, regardless.Yan Huaijing supported the windowsill with his hand, and he jumped into the room lightly. His robe under the snow coat was wide and light. On the plain-colored robe were purple embroidery patterns, exhuming a sense of luxury and leisure. His tall and handsome figure made the window look narrow.He stretched his hand out of the window, and a guard instantly appeared at the window. He respectfully brought in another snow coat.Yan Huaijing took it, unfolded it, draped it over Wei Yuewu's shoulders, and tied the strap for he
"The marriage is at Your Highness' command, of course," Yan Huaijing denoted with a light smile on his face without any change in his expression. He curved his thin lips into an elegant smiley arc. Under the lights of the lanterns, he looked as handsome as a deity.Although Wei Qiufu disdained the woman in Yan Huaijing's arms, she had to react according to the Crown Prince's order. Reluctantly, she marched forward and extended her hands, wanting to take Wei Yuewu's hand, as she uttered in a soft tone, "Miss, let's go over there and talk. There is a pretty flower-shaped lantern over there."Wei Qiufu had to do as the Crown Prince said despite her disinclination. By doing so, the Crown Prince would definitely see her generous performance and think that she was magnanimous and good-mannered.However, Yan Huaijing curled his arm slightly and hugged Wei Yuewu tighter. Then, he looked at Wei Qiufu with his cold gazes. "Fourth Miss Wei, thanks
There was nothing special about the lantern. It was so ordinary that it looked similar to the other palace lanterns hanging in the corridor. The only difference was that there was a picture drawn on it. However, everyone overlooked it because the lantern next to it was too remarkable.Wei Yuewu would not have discovered this ordinary lantern easily had she not stood here to admire the lantern in front of it.However, when Wei Yuewu saw the unremarkable lantern, she was so shocked that she almost shrieked.Because there was a woman in a palace dress who was surrounded by many palace maids and eunuchs drawn on the lantern. The woman looked so familiar to Wei Yuewu.Yes! It was very familiar. It was not because she had seen the woman in her life, but the familiarity came from her memory.The gentle and friendly little elder sister with a pale face in her memory looked very alike with the imperial concubine who was
"What do you mean by that? If I can't even protect the woman I love, what else can I do?!" Another feminine voice resonated into Wei Yuewu's ears, shocking her to the point that her expression changed dramatically.The man with the feminine voice was none other than the man who had almost spotted Wei Yuewu and killed her when she fell into Wei Fengyao's trap last time.Your Highness? Now, Wei Yuewu could almost confirm the identity of this prince."I-I am useless, and I drag you into this..." The woman sobbed in a low voice."For you, I am willing to do anything. Even if I have to face Father Emperor with my incapacitated body, I will not hesitate to do so. Just you wait, I will beg Mother for you in a while." His Highness seemed to be a little worked up, and his soft voice carried a bit of uncontrollable thrill and slight panting."Y-Your Highness... T-There's no need to hurry. You don't feel well. Don't make y
"Jin Ling, go and find out what's going on," Wei Yuewu instructed as she sat up."Yes!" Jin Ling put down the lamp in her hand and walked out. When she opened the door, she saw a frightened Ming Yan."Ming Yan, what's going on?""I-Is Sixth Young Lady asleep? Our miss... our miss... has something to say to her!" Ming Yan's face was pale. At first glance, Jin Ling could tell that something was off.Jin Ling looked outside and saw Wei Qiufu standing in the corridor. Under the dim light, she looked horrid with her ghastly gloomy expression mixed with a hint of ferociousness."Jin Ling, let Fourth Elder Sister in!" Wei Yuewu casually put on a robe and sat up."Yes. Fourth Young Lady, our Miss invites you in." Jin Ling retreated to the side and made way.Wei Qiufu walked in with a cold expression with Ming Yan in tow. Looking behind them, Jin Ling made sure that there was no one else. She cl
Speaking of which, Wei Yuewu did take the lead in this matter."Don't worry. The Empress will suppress the matter." Wei Yuewu closed her eyes and shook her head. Judging from Wei Qiufu's expression and what she had just said, Wei Yuewu knew the Empress had reprimanded Wei Qiufu directly without giving her a chance to explain herself.If the matter, as well as the past incidents, were exposed, Empress Tu would definitely be implicated, and the Grand Perceptor Tu Mansion might be dragged into it too.A woman who had a broken betrothal had actually become the Empress. It was a great humiliation for the Emperor. Therefore, the matter should end here. Not only would no one investigate this, but the Empress would even stop other people from investigating. Furthermore, there must be a reasonably "happy ending" to this matter.Wei Yuewu believed there would be such a happy ending to justify the Empress' reactions.Of co
