Chapter 415: The Prince Also Wants to Marry a Concubine?
Qi Yu hugged her knees, sitting under the tree for a long while, deeply lost in thought. When exactly had she slipped up?
Yin Wanning’s reaction had made it clear; she had always known that someone was following her.
Even though she couldn’t see this person at all.
Qi Yu sighed softly, resigned. So be it, being discovered was inevitable—after all, none of it was real to begin with.
After consoling herself, she lightly got to her feet and strolled around the Imperial Palace.
The afternoon offered little spectacle; the Empress had long decided on her favored candidates and had summoned so many people merely for the sake of appearances.
She chose two women with good family backgrounds and appearances as concubines for Cang Ming and secretly instructed them to closely monitor every move of Yin Wanning.
The Empress had a cunning plan; she intended to catch Yin Wanning’s mistakes and then punish her severely.
Yet, Yin Wanning spent her days in the mansion either practicing her swordplay or reading and sleeping, leading a life as bland as plain water.
After several days of surveillance, the two concubines found nothing of note to report.
