If it weren't for me, my sister and Prince Lian wouldn't have ended up like this. But then I thought, if I hadn't stopped them, Thirteen would still have been imprisoned for ten years. After Yongzheng ascended the throne, Thirteen died from overwork.
Heyue often dreams that her sister is laughing and crying in a sea of fire, gradually being swallowed by the fire. Heyue wakes up screaming, feeling dazed and disoriented, as if she has lost her soul.
Thirteen was extremely worried. Seeing that Heyue had become so thin that she was unrecognizable, he invited the imperial physician to come and see her, but there was nothing they could do.

"No! She won't! She won't hurt me, Fourth Brother, please, just let me see her, I don't want to regret it!" He Yue kowtowed repeatedly, pleading incessantly.
