Shen Yinning retrieved the bronze key from the depths of her jewelry box.
She couldn't figure out what this key might unlock—had Lu Ying guessed it?
He had figured it out but hadn't told her…
Gripping the key tightly, a foreboding intuition grew more intense within her, as if whatever lay behind this key would pull her into a perilous abyss.
"Forget it."
After a moment of contemplation, she placed the key back where it was.
Dealing with Shen Yunxi and Shen Xinghan, along with Huo Mingyan and Lu Ying, was already tiring her out.
For now, she didn't want to bring herself additional troubles.
She would address the matter of the key later.
Wei Yu attended to her hair, smiling as she asked, "Does the Commandery Princess have plans for today? I heard from Haitang that during yesterday's Spring Banquet, you made Consort Rong lose a full fifty thousand taels of silver coins! How impressive!"
