Chapter 163: Li Xin Kneeling in the Rain; Yan Wan Laments
Lian Ye: "Is that so? Come in and help, don't just stand there."
When Concubine Yi saw Lian Ye coming in, she gasped and endured the pain and asked, "Where is the emperor? Has the emperor arrived?"
Lian Ye shook her head: "Master, it's all Li Xin's fault. Even the emperor can't be invited!"
Concubine Yi clenched her fists and said, "Get her out! Go outside and kneel down!"
Lian Ye gloated and said, "Good master, I'll go right away."
"Master... no, master, listen to me..." Li Xin wanted to defend herself, but Lian Ye immediately called a few eunuchs to cover her mouth.
Two young eunuchs threw Li Xin into the rain, one on each side. Lian Ye said, "The master told you to kneel, so kneel well."
"Eunuch Jinzhong, thank you for your hard work. Just stay here and watch over her." After saying that, she turned around and went back to the inner hall.
Jinzhong (Ling Yunche) looked at Li Xin kneeling in the rain and shook his head repeatedly: "Why are you doing this? There's nothing shameful about giving in."
Li Xin: "Even if I give in to her, she won't let me go."
At this time, Lan'er came over and saw Li Xin's pitiful appearance, and immediately went into the inner hall to ask Concubine Yi for mercy.
"Master, please spare Li Xin. It's raining heavily, so it's understandable that the emperor didn't come."
Lian Ye pointed at Lan Er and said, "It's hard enough for you to leave, and you're still here making sarcastic remarks!"
Lan'er had no choice but to retreat.
"I'm sorry, I can't help you." She stood in the corridor and looked at Li Xin with pity in her eyes.
"Eunuch Jinzhong, why don't you go back first? I think it will take some time for the baby to be born, and I don't know when the rain will stop."
Jinzhong nodded: "Okay, I'll go back first then."
In Yongshou Palace, Wei Yanwan sat on the couch and looked at the heavy rain outside the window. Ever since she saw Ling Yunche, whose soul had traveled through time and space, she felt that life had hope.
Chunchan brought a bowl of hot porridge and said, "Master, this mung bean and lily porridge is good for clearing away heat and moistening the lungs. Please try it."
"It's been raining all day and it's not letting up."
"Yes, Master, I just came back and heard that Concubine Yi had launched the movement. The Emperor should not have gone."
"Yeah." Wei Yanwan lowered her head and drank the porridge with a cold expression.
At this moment, the palace maid outside came to report that Eunuch Jinzhong had arrived.
Wei Yanwan handed the bowl of porridge to Chunchan: "I don't want to eat anymore. Go to the kitchen and make me some snacks."
Chunchan: "I understand, Master. I'll go right away."
Jinzhong (Ling Yunche) walked in, his clothes were a little wet from the rain, and Wei Yanwan picked up a handkerchief and wiped him.
"Where have you been?"
Jinzhong (Ling Yunche): "The Emperor asked me to go to Qixiang Palace to watch. Concubine Yi is in labor, but she hasn't given birth yet."
"You know Li Xin, right?"
Wei Yanwan nodded: "She used to be the head maid of the Jin family, what's wrong with that?"
"Well, I just feel sorry for her. She used to be a very glorious maid, but now anyone can bully her. When I came back, she was still kneeling in the rain."
Wei Yanwan smiled and said, "You're still the same as before, worrying about everything."
Jinzhong (Ling Yunche) scratched his head and smirked, "Actually, I'm quite grateful to God for letting me use Jinzhong's body to stay by your side."
Wei Yanwan leaned on his shoulder: "Sometimes I really feel that this is a dream. When we wake up, everything will be the same as before."
"I'm sorry, Yanwan, I can only accompany you like this."
Wei Yanwan said, "He is the emperor, the most powerful man in the world. How can we defeat him?"
