Gao Qingqing whispered, "The Emperor should be nearby. Sing quickly and lure him over!"

Zhu Xianyue opened her mouth and said, "Thunderbolt, this heaven-shattering and earth-sinking purple-gold hammer!

Purple lightning, Xuanzhen flame nine-day hanging sword shocking transformation! "

And the sound is quite loud.

Gao Qingqing was so angry that she almost raised her fist, but remembering that she still had to rely on Zhu Xianyue tonight, she endured it.

"Yue'er, what are you singing?

Are you crazy?

Wait, what's that in your hand... a lighter?!"

Gao Qingqing couldn't quite understand Zhu Xianyue, but she could feel a chill all over her body.

It's over.

Zhu Xianyue has changed.

Is it too late for her to run now?

Thanks to Zhu Xianyue's "blessing", Wei Yinian has become closer to the two little palace maids than in the original plot.

He saw the taller woman light a fire with a lighter, and it actually burned directly towards the side of her face -!

sky!

Doesn’t this hurt!

Then the woman said in a resounding voice, "Gao Qingqing, I'll pay you back what I owe you.

When you saved me that year, I was not blind. I knew that you didn't save me for the sake of saving me, but because you were afraid and pounced on me, and happened to save me!

I was lucky enough to survive.

Over the years, you've relied on saving me to make me do so many thankless things for you! I'm stupid, but I'm willing to do it for you. I won't say anything more!

But now, you actually asked me to wear a mask and sing to seduce the emperor, and then let you take the blame. This is a crime of deceiving the emperor!

I absolutely cannot do this.

The Emperor is a wise ruler. I deeply respect him and would never... do anything to let him down...

I am also tired of being forced to repay you for your kindness. Today, I will burn my face with fire to repay you for this empty favor!

The woman's eyes were firm, and she seemed oblivious to the pain of her burning skin.

But how could she not feel it?

Wei Yinian had seen his own mother burned to death in a blaze, and he had also watched coldly as his bound father painfully perished in the flames...

He could feel the pain...

Gao Qingqing was frightened by Zhu Xianyue's action and kept backing away.

"Crazy, you are absolutely crazy...

You might as well die here, I won’t care about you, you lunatic…”

Gao Qingqing has always treated Zhu Xianyue as a tool, so naturally she doesn't feel much pain about her self-harming behavior.

But when she turned around, she saw Wei Yinian wearing a bright yellow dragon robe...

“Your Majesty… Your Majesty…!”

She was so scared that she knelt on the ground and kowtowed continuously.

The emperor heard everything that was said just now!

"Your Majesty... Zhu Xianyue is lying... Please don't be fooled by her..."

She subconsciously gave Zhu Xianyue a look, hoping that Zhu Xianyue would admit her mistakes many times before and save her again.

This kind of look has become a habit, and Gao Qingqing can't change it in the short term.

But Zhu Xianyue didn't accept her gaze. Instead, he collapsed weakly, his eyes filled with sadness and the pain of being hurt by his best friend. His whole body seemed to be breaking...

Of course she didn't fall to the ground.

Wei Yinian took two steps forward and put his arms around the little palace maid's slender waist.

...It's so thin, she must have suffered a lot.

He knocked the lighter out of her hand.

"Your Majesty..." Zhu Xianyue looked at him "confusedly", with more tension and love in her eyes.

Wei Yinian said softly, "Don't be afraid.

From now on, as long as I am here, no one can bully you.

Are you willing to... follow me?"
