All day long, Zijin just curled up quietly in her room, no matter how day and darkness alternated, no matter how time passed between her fingers, she just curled up on the bed as if she were dead.
But things about the third prince and the princess came to mind over and over again.
I heard she was beautiful and he was handsome when they met,
I heard that they had such a pleasant time together, pouring tea, reading and writing.
I heard that they had already promised each other,
I heard they really, really love each other...
I just heard that in the end, no one of them could hold anyone else's hand.
She left, and finally he left too...
Being born into an emperor's family would only end up like this.
If you are just a maid, what will your future be like?
Can your destiny really be in your own hands?
"My destiny is up to me and not God", ridiculous, ridiculous...
"Sister Zijin...are you there?" Ding Xiang's voice came from outside the door.
"kindness!"
Zijin opened his mouth, only to realize that his voice had become hoarse at some point, and his throat hurt terribly even when he said a word.
With a "squeak" sound, Ding Xiang pushed open the door and walked in. Seeing Zijin getting up from the bed, Ding Xiang hurriedly came to support him.
"Sister Dingxiang, why do you have so much free time today?" Zi Jin looked at Dingxiang and asked.
Ding Xiang hesitated for a while and said: "I came here on the order of my master."
"What was supposed to come finally came!" Zijin smiled bitterly and sat up from the bed, blessing his body to receive the order.
Seeing this, Ding Xiang straightened up and said loudly:
"According to the decree of the Third Lady Yang Guibi,
The rumor that Hu Zijin, a second-rank maid, composed the poem "The Peacock Flies Southeast" seduce the third prince,
The third prince was distraught, so I ordered him to die as atonement.
But because the fourth prince Yuque and the second prince Yuchen interceded for him,
Someone else, Mr. Lan, came to intercede and he was given a lighter sentence.
Although the death penalty is exempted, the living crime is unforgivable, so I have specially sent it to the Anle Palace until now!"
Anle Palace?
It is nothing more than a place to house those old, sick, and crazy palace maids and empresses...
