Ye Lingyue was anxious at heart and dared not to act rashly, so she simply hid in the Dark Pavilion to look for a suitable opportunity to escape.
But who could have known that the Empress, bolstered by the influence of alcohol, would do such a thing, utter such words? Ye Lingyue was nearly beside herself with rage.
It was clear that the Empress wanted to take advantage of Feng Xun.
Feng Xun was frail and had no martial skills.
Ye Lingyue hid below, her mind filled with wild and disordered thoughts.
Listening to the Empress's charming rebukes, laced with coquettish tones, Ye Lingyue was so frustrated she wanted to burst out and slap that old woman to death.
Fortunately, Feng Xun's reaction wasn't slow.
It didn't take long for Ye Lingyue to hear the voice of a third person.
The voice seemed to be that of King Kaijiang, Chen Tuo.
