Xun'er happily came to announce that Eunuch Xu Ninghai was waiting at the door and that the young mistress should get ready and go with him.
Mi Shan paused, her almond-shaped eyes widening slightly, a cloud of doubt clouding her heart.
Didn't they say my wound hadn't healed yet?
“I did say so. But Eunuch Xu said that the Emperor has ordered that no matter what reason Your Highness may have, you must not refuse, otherwise it will be a serious crime that will cost you your head.”
