When Wanrou woke up, it was already nightfall the next day. As soon as she opened her eyes, she found herself lying on a carved sandalwood bed. Layers of pink curtains fluttered and swayed in the room, and the curtains were vaguely visible.
There was a long-haired woman sitting on the table outside.
"Are you awake? Did you know that you slept for a whole day, twelve hours?" A pleasant voice sounded in Wanrou's ears, and the woman opened the curtains and walked slowly towards Wanrou.
As she walked closer, Wanrou's awareness of self-protection gradually increased, and her body slightly retreated into the bed.
"It's you! Why did you arrest me here? Where is this place?" Wanrou felt extremely nervous when she saw the woman in red who had lifted the last layer of curtains and came to stand in front of her.
Gradually she relaxed. Her intuition told herself that this woman named Zuo Shang would not hurt her.
"Why? Just because you are Huangfu Jin's woman. Mo Chubai is really capable. He actually deceived me and said you were his woman, haha. It's really ridiculous!" Shang raised his head and smiled. She really felt that she was so funny.
, actually subconsciously believed Mo Chubai's words. Or did she not want this beautiful woman to be Huangfu Jin's sweetheart from the bottom of her heart?
Shang walked to the bed and slowly sat down next to Wanrou. He poured a glass of wine and handed it to Wanrou. He smiled faintly and asked, "Would you like a glass? Wine is a good thing."
Wanrou was stunned for a moment, a little confused about her behavior. Then she looked at the woman next to her who had a beautiful face but a trace of scars. Without saying a word, she took the wine glass she placed in front of her and prepared to
He raised his head and drank it all in one gulp.
At this moment, Shang held Wanrou's wrist and asked in confusion: "Aren't you afraid that the wine is poisonous and I want to harm you?"
"You won't hurt me, otherwise you won't put me in your boudoir and tuck me into bed when I fall asleep." Wanrou remembered that when she just woke up, the quilt was covering her body.
It must be done well, someone must have helped her tuck it in so it could be covered so neatly on her body.
Wanrou smiled faintly at her. She felt that this woman named Shang had a sad memory.
"You are a smart woman, no wonder he will fall in love with you without hesitation." Shang took the wine glass from Wanrou's hand, raised his head and drank it down.
"What do you want to do when you capture me?" Wanrou saw that the woman's eyes were clearly full of sadness, but she was surrounded by a strong hatred.
"Don't worry, I will never hurt you. After all, you have nothing to do with this. Come here and see the ruins?" Shang pulled Wanrou to the window. Wanrou saw a place burned by fire.
As a result of the dilapidated ruins, the plaque consisting of four solemn characters of Mingyue Villa is now hanging crookedly in front of the gate.
Shang's hand grabbed Wanrou's wrist with increased strength out of anger, which made Wanrou's wrist hurt. However, Wanrou did not show any discomfort, and just stood aside and listened quietly to Shang's explanation.
He complained: "Three years ago, as a spy of an enemy country, I entered the palace to accompany the king. Huangfu Jin loved me very much. Although I was moved, but due to my identity, he still revealed some important information to me.
The master. Later, Huangfu Jin found out that I was Xizuo, and Long Yan was furious. In order to make me suffer a hundred times more pain than him, he ruined my beautiful appearance and killed my mentor." Shang became more and more excited as he spoke.
Rou's wrist was so painful that she could only bite her lips to relieve the pain.
Then she finally let go of Wanrou's hand and continued: "Although my master also has some relations with the enemy country, he was not involved in this matter at all. The master came with me to the snow simply because he couldn't worry about me alone.
Rongguo, he is innocent! But Huangfu Jin, he actually killed my master with his own hands. He just wanted me to suffer so much that he even ordered the villa to be set on fire. There were hundreds of lives in Mingyue Villa! They were all destroyed.
I fell into the hands of Huangfu Jin. But in order to humiliate me, he even saved me. He wanted me to live alone. So I survived with hatred for him. I vowed to do it for him.
If the master takes revenge, I will definitely go to hell with Huangfu Jin!" Shang was extremely excited as he spoke, with a murderous aura emanating from his body, which made Wanrou feel a little scared. Shang waved his hand and swept away the vase decorations on the bookshelf next to him.
Afterwards, there was a sound of pieces falling to the ground, and the tears that Shang had been holding back fell.
"Why should you let hatred surround you? It was precisely because Huangfu Jin loved you that he couldn't bear your betrayal to him and chose to take revenge on you. He saved you because he simply didn't want you to die." Wanrou suddenly felt distressed in front of her.
This woman, who was burdened with hatred, was forced by her status to not choose her own love, and she had to bear the pain of losing her loved ones at the same time. But she overestimated herself. Huangfu Jin was an emperor of the generation, and he was connected to the entire country, so what?
Maybe risking your life alone for a concubine?
"He will definitely not come." Wanrou hoped in her heart that Huangfu Jin would not appear, but she also expected that he would really take risks for her own sake, which meant that she was really important to him.
Wanrou was very conflicted in her heart. No matter what, she did not want the people around her to be harmed because of her own reasons.
