C275 homocentric (1/2)

This oath was said with seriousness, making both the Ah Jiu and the bell laugh.

”Empress, you must not die without a complete corpse, please don't say that.” With a chuckle, the Zhong Miao Yi smiled.

Ah Jiu helped Imperial Consort Chen up, making her look a lot lighter. She did not look like she was in her right mind, and after Zhong Miao Yi told her this, her eyes lit up.

Before Zhong Miao Yi came, Chen Xi Meng had already thought that if she wanted to live this life of hers forever, then she might as well die.

But to truly die, that required courage.

She did not have the courage to die, but neither did she have the confidence to survive.

Under the dual mental torture, Chen Xi Meng's entire being was practically collapsing.

She had thought of all sorts of things in this dark room. She was always the only one there.

No one spoke to her, and she didn't know what to say.

She could hear voices outside, a door, as far away as if it were the whole world.

Zhong Miao Yi was the light at the end of her life. She reached out his hand to her and pulled her hand.

Chen Xi knew that if she still didn't know how to be grateful, then she would truly be bringing harm upon herself.

Even if he wanted to beg for mercy, perhaps God would not agree.

”Although I can't tell you that, the reality is that you can leave this room, but neither of us can leave this palace.” There was a tinge of regret in Zhong Miao Yi's tone. She did not want to hide anything, because it was originally like this. She wasn't here to save Chen Xi's dream.

She only allowed Chen Xi Meng to enter a new, larger cage from a smaller cage.

Chen Xi Meng was startled, seeing that Zhong Miao Yi did not look like she was joking, she did not care about the matter of whether or not they could go out, she was only a little surprised at the matter of Zhong Miao Yi being grounded: ”Yes. The emperor's decree? ”

Zhong Miao Yi nodded his head, ”Yes, we are currently working together. I don't know when we will be able to leave, are you still willing to follow me?”

Chen Xi didn't think too much into it and nodded seriously: ”Only the Empress remembers me. From then on, I'll only follow her, no matter if I'm wealthy or poor.”

Chen Xi Meng no longer thought about anything that was favoured, she didn't want to silently endure loneliness again. This kind of feeling was too hard to accept, she didn't want to think about it for the rest of her life.

Zhong Miao Yi nodded, she did not completely trust Chen Xi Meng's words, because she had accumulated this trust bit by bit. If Chen Xi wanted Zhong Miao Yi to completely believe her, then she could only use time and action to prove it.

Zhong Miao Yi had wanted to have her own faction for a long time.

She didn't need someone who had ill intentions on the surface, Chen Xi Meng was a good candidate, Zhong Miao Yi had long since seen through her.

Only, Chen Xi Meng was still impatient and needed to be polished. The current Chen Xi Meng was very different from the past.

Now that Zhong Miao Yi looked at Chen Xi Meng, she felt that she was of the same heart as him.

Chen Xi Meng had not walked out of this door for a long time, her palace maid was waiting for her at the door. When she saw Chen Xi Meng's face, she couldn't help but cry: ”Noble man.”

She really was much thinner. It was as if her entire body was covered by a layer of skin.
