Novel website. Yue Qingyin felt a sense of relief; whether she could be saved depended entirely on Cailing.
Cai Ling was helped up by a guard. Her knees were covered in blood, indicating that she was seriously injured. She bowed to Yue Qingyin and then walked away without looking back, letting the guard help her.
Her heart was filled with desolation.
She didn't follow the wrong master. Consort Jingxian was indeed intelligent, capable, shrewd, and had a clever mind.
However, no matter how shrewd and calculating Consort Jingxian was, she overlooked one thing: the human heart.
She treated her like a master, but she only saw her as a pawn, and sooner or later she would be discarded.
She won't pass on messages for Consort Jingxian; may the mistress pray for good fortune.

Gathering in front of the palace.
Su Niaoyue and Li Bai stood quietly in front of the palace, looking in the direction from which the silk music was coming.
Li Bai stood on tiptoe, very eager: "Sister Su, I heard that His Majesty is welcoming the Empress, let's go and join in the fun!"
Su Niaoyue laughed. How could they possibly join in the fun? If they went now, they would only be an eyesore!
She laughed and said, "We can't go. You think His Majesty going to welcome the Empress out of the palace is a very happy thing, but when the Empress comes out and sees us following His Majesty, the joy will be diminished."
"why is that?"
Li Bai's naivety left Su Niaoyue speechless. She could only take Li Bai's hand and say, "Let's go! The small kitchen in the palace made Eight Treasure Gourd Duck today. Come with me and try it."
"Excellent! Do you still have the smartweed candy from your palace that my younger sister ate last time?"
"Yes! I'll give you some more. If one day His Majesty asks you and me to leave the palace, would you be willing?" Su Niaoyue asked calmly.
"I don't want to!"
"Why?"
"With so much delicious food here, how can I leave? Where else can I find so much good food? I haven't had enough of the Yellow Plum Blossom, Goldfish Playing with Lotus, and Crystal Fish Belly from the Empress's palace!"
Su Niaoyue: "..." Are you really here to serve His Majesty in the palace?
...
Suning Palace.
As Jun Zhe gazed at the enormous gilded plaque, he was filled with a myriad of emotions.
The bright red lanterns outside the palace were shining brightly.
The palace gates were wide open. Everyone had already received the news and had tidied up the palace inside and out. The entire Suning Palace was brightly lit and looked very lively.
Jun Zhe strode inside and saw his empress standing at the palace gate, looking at him from afar.
Jun Zhe's heart stirred, and an indescribable joy enveloped him. He wished he could sprout wings and rush to her side immediately.
Seeing Jun Zhe's hurried steps, Linghu Lan could roughly understand that Jun Zhe had suffered a lot!
She slowly walked towards Jun Zhe, and the two drew closer and closer until finally, their hands were clasped together.
Jun Zhe's lost heart seemed to have finally found a place to rest. His gaze swept over her face inch by inch, and he felt that every part of her was beautiful and approachable; her arched eyebrows and phoenix eyes were exactly what he liked.
He held Linghu Lan's hand tightly, a feeling of preciousness, like something lost and then found, welling up inside him: "Are you... alright?"
Linghu Lan reached out and flicked his nose, then leaned down and whispered in his ear, "Sleeping with you is no problem, want to give it a try?"
Jun Zhe blushed, overjoyed by a long-lost sense of intimacy. Then his eyes reddened, filled with an unspeakable grievance that made him want to burst into tears immediately.
Linghu Lan gently stroked his back and whispered, "Let's go in and cry our hearts out."
"Aren't you going to laugh at me?"
"What a joke, I'll laugh at you after you've finished crying."
"...Then I will stop crying."
Hehe! "You have no choice but to cry!" I guarantee you'll be begging for mercy while crying!
"..."
