Seeing this scene, Zijin felt a blank in his heart.

Apart from fear and guilt, my body was not obedient at all.

Curling up next to Lilac and shivering.

Dingxiang held Zijin's hand tightly,

I don’t know whether it was because I was nervous or because I wanted to give Zijin courage.

The hand holding Zijin's was so strong.

Amidst the noise, Zijin seemed to hear a faint cry of a baby.

Hearing such a voice, the panicked Zijin was shocked.

My mind seemed to become much clearer all of a sudden.

"Little princess...little princess is still at Concubine Ru's place!"

"Little princess? What, what little princess?"

Ding Xiang, who was on the side, saw that Zijin was about to stand up, so she quickly stretched out her hand to hold him down and asked.

Zi Jin turned his head and looked at Ding Xiang intently,

After hesitating for a long time, he finally decided not to tell Lilac about the little princess.

No matter whose entrustment Dingxiang received,

Zi Jin felt extremely guilty for letting her get involved in such a predicament for no reason.

How can I tell her that the little princess is the illegitimate daughter of Empress Shuyi and her guard?

To know the deep palace compound, the more secrets you know, the shorter your life will be.

"It's a long story, and I don't have time to tell you in detail right now."

Zi Jin took off Ding Xiang's hand and continued:

"You stay here first, I, I'll go out for a while!"

"The murderous maniac is not far away,

Do you want to go out if you don't care about your life?"

Ding Xiang wanted to reach out and grab Zi Jin again,

But Zijin turned sideways to avoid it.

"Sister Lilac, I have to do this!

Be loyal to others when entrusted by others,

I think you must know this truth better than me,

Otherwise, you wouldn’t have come to Anle Hall tonight without telling the master.”

Zijin did not shy away from Ding Xiang's questioning eyes and said firmly:

"What's more, what happened today happened because of me.

I can't just watch..."

Before he finished speaking, Zijin tiptoed along the rows of large water tanks and walked toward Concubine Ru's house.
