It is a great honor to defy the imperial edict. Sisters should talk to each other for a long time.

How could he have known that with the sudden arrival of Yi Feifei, the rules of the palace would be hard to conceal.

”Jing`er!” The person on the bed slowly raised his head to look at his father-in-law who had just entered the room. After a long time, his two lifeless eyes suddenly lit up, ”Rong'er? Is that you? ”

Rong'er's eyes turned red as he threw himself at Zhi Zhi's side, ”It's me! It's me, it's me! It's Rong'er!” He gently held Jingzhi's hand, which was covered in bones. ”Jing`er, you've suffered so much. How come you've become so thin?”

”Rong'er, I really didn't expect to see you again.” The only difference was that he had been grounded for a long time. His face was extremely pale, and he didn't seem to be angry. This smile made Rong'er's heart ache even more.

”No, how could they do this to you? No …” Rong'er's tears slid out of his eyes. He felt a heart-wrenching pain. Right now, all of Zhi Zhi's life was gone. They were too cruel. Was this the royal family's rule? Too cruel!

”I'm fine, Rong'er. Don't cry, I don't want to cry anymore. I'm just looking forward to ending this kind of life as soon as possible. Actually, I wanted to kill myself as well, but …” I've heard from Ruo Lan that people who commit suicide will not find it extremely enjoyable, so I waited. Actually, look at how leisurely my life is right now. I only eat and sleep every day. ” Jingzhi said with a smile.

”Master …” Seeing that Zhizhi was pretending to be relaxed, Rong'er's heart was even more upset. ”Zhizhi, I'm useless. I can't save you …”

”Don't be silly. How could you possibly save me? Right, the emperor is making things difficult for you. Is the emperor treating you the same as before?” Sergei asked, thinking of how he had implicated Rong'er.

”Very good …” ”It's fine, it's fine. The emperor doesn't blame me.” She had to trick Master Zhi Zhi. She couldn't let her feel guilty.

”That's good …” Zhizhi did not notice Rong'er's expression and said gratifyingly, ”That's right, Rong'er, do you know when you will sentence me to death? I've been waiting every day, and I don't know anything about what's going on outside. ”

”Jing`er, Zhuan An and Wan Ji both died of illness, and it has been an unlucky day for the palace. In February, it was Empress Li's month of sacrifice, and a few days ago, two more concubines entered the palace. Estimate... ”It's probably at the end of the month. I'm afraid I'll have to do something to you …” Rong'er stammered.

”Ah?” ”Did Ann and Wan Ji die?” Sergei asked in surprise.

”Hmm, you know that since last year's spring, Zhuan An's body had not been in a good condition. A small chilliness had taken her life, and Wan Pai had first caught the cold before he had to close his lungs and cough out …” Rong'er murmured.

”These poor children, if the heavens pity me when I die, I will take care of them …” He spoke quietly and respectfully.

”No …” ”Jingzhi, tell me, what do I need to do to save you? I don't want you to die, I really don't want …” Rong'er cried out hoarsely. It was one thing to not be able to see it, but the more he saw, the more sad and reluctant he became. Right now, she couldn't even beg the emperor. She was so powerless, so powerless.

”Rong'er, there's no need. Really, if I live, I'll suffer. You serve the emperor well. I hope the emperor will pamper you for the rest of your life. I'll pray for you.” Tzu Chi lightly held Rong'er's hand and said in a powerful voice, ”I thought I was finally free. I'm very happy.”

Rong'er smiled wryly as he thought to himself. Had the Emperor doted on her for the rest of her life? ”I'm afraid it has already changed.” ”Jingzhi, I …”

Rong'er had not even finished speaking when he suddenly heard a sound from outside, followed by Xiaoqing's alarmed cry, then a wave of berating, followed by a wave of shouting, and then a wave of shouting. The door suddenly opened, and behind the door stood Imperial Concubine Yi, while Xiaoqing, who was guarding the door, rushed out, ”Xiaoqing …” Rong'er cried out in alarm.

”A concubine?” Imperial Concubine Yi looked at Rong'er in surprise. ”Why are you here?”
