The candle in the room was still lit, but the weak light made people feel dizzy.
Shen Yueji pushed the door open and saw the girl sitting by the tea table, concentrating on something.
Her loose white clothes were casually draped over her body. Her thin and delicate body, especially her slender waist, coupled with her pale cheeks and slightly messy hair, made people involuntarily feel pity for her and want to embrace her.
Maybe Li Yingying was so focused that when the door was pushed open, she vaguely heard the sound, but she didn't look up. Instead, she concentrated on the jade pendant in her hand.
The jade pendant was old, and the workmanship was rough. It wasn't worth much, but in her eyes, it was like a rare treasure.
Shen Yueji walked slowly towards her and stopped in front of her. Looking at the jade pendant in her hand, she casually found an empty seat and sat down. "What? Is it your sweetheart's thing? "
The girl was shocked, as if she didn't expect someone to enter the room.
She stared at Shen Yueji for a while, then hurriedly got up and bowed. "Imperial Concubine …"
Seeing her frightened look, Shen Yueji rubbed her eyebrows. "You're weak, so you don't need to bow. This is not the palace, so there aren't so many rules. "
Li Yingying obediently stood up and sat down. "Your Highness, why are you here so late?"
"I have nothing to do, so I came here to take a look. What's the matter with the jade pendant in your hand?"
"Oh, it's nothing. It's just a worthless thing."
Saying that, Li Yingying was about to put away the jade pendant.
"Is Miss Li hiding something from this consort?"
"Your Highness …"
Li Yingying looked at her in confusion.
Shen Yueji smiled slightly. "Everyone has something hidden in their heart. Miss Li is no exception, and I am no exception. If Miss Li doesn't want to tell others, I won't ask too much. However, I need to remind you that since you've promised me, you should put your mind where it belongs. I'll help you take revenge, so you should treat me wholeheartedly. Tomorrow, the Emperor will return to the capital. If it's late, he will stay in the General's Mansion for a day. "
At this point, Shen Yueji looked at her, "When the time comes, I will arrange for you to meet with His Majesty."
Perhaps Li Yingying didn't expect it to be so fast, her face paled. "This servant understands."
After staring at her for a while, Shen Yueji's line of sight fell on the jade pendant in her hand, her fingertips lightly tapping on the table: "Miss Li, ben gong doesn't force others to do things against their will, and it's not that you have to do it. If you don't want to, ben gong won't force you. This consort will give you one last chance. It's not too late to back out now. "
"Your Highness?"
Sighing, Shen Yueji looked at her and said, "I can give you a sum of money so that you and your maidservant won't have to worry for the rest of your life."
"Your Highness, are you pitying this subject's daughter?"
"Really?"
Shen Yueji smiled faintly, "You can think of it as pity. This consort suddenly feels that your future life should have been peaceful and tranquil, but I've pulled you into a dangerous situation. This empress is thinking, is this helping you, or is this helping myself? "
Looking at the longing look on the jade pendant, it was clear that she already had someone in her heart. Although she didn't know who that man was, and what they had experienced, she had never mentioned it to her.
"Your Highness."
