C11 Enter the Palace

Jiang Xinman sat in the twin hall and waited idly. Jiang Xinci was still pregnant. Actually, she didn't need to come out. Jiang Xinman could just go in by herself, but the person leading the way and the palace maid in the hall only told her to wait and not go in.

Jiang Xinman shook the empty teapot in her hand and stood up. Ignoring the palace maid's obstruction, she tried to force her way into the inner hall again.

Coincidentally, Jiang Xinci came out at this time. Her appearance was still as beautiful as ever, but the usual carefree look between her eyebrows seemed to be covered by clouds of worry. Looking at her smiling expression, Jiang Xinman understood that she had met a good person from the Magic Pen Pavilion. However, the identities of both parties were really awkward.

When Jiang Xinci saw Jiang Xinman's teasing expression, she didn't know why, but she felt that it wasn't towards her and His Majesty, but... But how could her little sister know about him...

Jiang Xinci said to the palace maids in the hall, "All of you can leave. Little sister and I have some small matters that are inconvenient for you to be present."

After saying that, without waiting for the palace maids to react, he pulled Jiang Xinman into the inner hall. Without Jiang Xinci's permission, no one could enter the inner hall. Even if they were pregnant, they still couldn't enter.

Jiang Xinci looked weak, but she was a person who kept her word. As her elder sister, her strength was already engraved in her every move.

Jiang Xinman entered the inner hall and helped Jiang Xinci sit on the soft couch.

Jiang Xinci had a smile on her face, but it was a little bitter. "Am I that weak? I'm still just pregnant..."

Jiang Xinman curled her lips: "It's the easiest for accidents to happen when you're just pregnant. Take a good rest, I can do it myself, there's no need to greet me!"

Jiang Xinman waited for Jiang Xinci to say something to her, but she opened her mouth several times without saying a word. Jiang Xinman suddenly realized that the person from the Magic Pen Pavilion was not a good person. He had turned such a rational and talented girl into a little woman from his boudoir. She could not remain silent anymore!

"How are you and that one?" Ah! It's over, she asked the wrong question! What if the other side of the wall had ears! If she was caught, Jiang Xinci's harem might end...

Jiang Xinci lowered her head and adjusted her sleeves. She said absent-mindedly, "He treats me very well. He is blessed with good fortune and loves me very much. At the moment, he is not tired of me. He has not been coming here often recently."

Jiang Xinman thought for a while and realized that the two of them were really different people! She felt that His Majesty was always fickle and that the public opinion was not good at all.

Jiang Xinman moved the small stool to Jiang Xinci's side and got quite close to her. She asked in a strange voice, "Is he handsome?"

Jiang Xinman's words made Jiang Xinci's mood suddenly change. Little sister, could it be that you're interested in His Majesty? Maybe it's just that you're interested in handsome men...

"Eyebrows and eyes, red lips and white teeth, resolute but not lacking in beauty... The beauty of a celestial being..."

Jiang Xinman listened to Jiang Xinci's answer and nodded her head as if she did not understand. She muttered, "The answer is straight and proper. It seems that he is just a familiar stranger."

Jiang Xinci's heart skipped a beat. She always felt that her little sister knew something that she shouldn't know, but no one should know about him.

Jiang Xinman looked straight at Jiang Xinci and whispered in her ear, "If you don't like His Majesty, then don't pretend to like him. Your acting is terrible. There should be someone else on the other side of your red string, right?"

Jiang Xinci avoided his gaze and silently agreed to this matter. She and His Majesty were both putting on a show, and the fake performance made her very tired, not to mention that some of the harem girls who did not know what was going on insisted on being jealous. No matter how unwilling they were before entering, after entering, they all became the same person. Would she be like that one day? Would she accept her fate?

Would he still wait for her? Would the day when the two of them went out hand in hand come?

Jiang Xinman held her hand. "You're so smart, you should know what you want. Don't miss it."

Jiang Xinci closed her eyes. Yes, what will come will come. She had decided.

When she opened her eyes, the determination in her eyes had disappeared. Actually, she had already made up her mind... It was just that she was always timid...

"I know, I always knew." Jiang Xinci looked at Jiang Xinman's expectant expression and knew that she wanted to hear about what happened between her and that person. Since she was young, she had always liked to join in on the fun, forget it...

Jiang Xinci wrote stroke by stroke in Jiang Xinman's palm. She asked about the family's situation, and Jiang Xinman understood.

There were too many people in the palace. They might have said something that they shouldn't have said. The two of them had done this kind of thing many times, so they answered each other skillfully.

Jiang Xinci and the good man from the Magic Pen Pavilion hit it off at first sight. They introduced each other as confidants and chatted happily. However, she did not reveal her identity and claimed that she was just a passerby in the Magic Pen Pavilion...

Although Jiang Xinman knew that Jiang Xinci's final outcome would be to end up with the other party, the probability was too small. She couldn't use luck as a bet. Her luck had always been very bad.

Jiang Xinci saw Jiang Xinman in a daze and thought about something. She sighed in her heart that she was actually the one who lived the most incomprehensible life. She had schemed to enter the Magic Pen Pavilion to become famous all over the world, but now that she had obtained it, she felt very uncomfortable.

She had achieved what she had always wanted, and it had made her lose the meaning of her life. She was unwilling to live like this for the rest of her life, but no one had ever left the Imperial City alive.

Jiang Xinci placed her hand on the back of Jiang Xinman's hand and said with a smile, "Can you help me deliver a letter to him?"

Jiang Xinman looked at Jiang Xinci mockingly. Was this a private meeting? Then she would definitely go to the show. If they could leave, it would be the best ending for them.

Although Jiang Xinci could also become the queen in the end, how much she lost in the process was something Jiang Xinman could not imagine...

"Alright."

Jiang Xinman took Jiang Xinci's letter to the pavilion around the Magic Pen Pavilion to deliver it. Curiosity made Jiang Xinman wonder what she was writing.

In the pavilion, Jiang Xinman saw a person. He was dressed in a green robe, and his appearance could only be considered handsome, but the elegant and otherworldly aura around him was very eye-catching.

The other party glanced at Jiang Xinman indifferently, then stood up and made a gesture of invitation.

Jiang Xinman entered the pavilion and wanted to explain her purpose for coming, but the other party beat her to it.

"I am Su Xiujie. Greetings, you should be the younger sister of Imperial Concubine Jiang. This letter..."

Jiang Xinman gave the letter to the other party. When Su Xiujie opened it and read it, his face turned pale and the smile on his face disappeared. He just held the letter without moving.

Jiang Xinman saw that the other party's reaction was clearly different from what she had expected. Her heart turned cold, and she pulled the letter out of the other party's hand.

"This!"

What should she say to Jiang Xinci?! Jiang Xinci had always been very independent. She had always known what she wanted and had always been weighing the pros and cons.

However, she did not expect that this time, she would make a clean cut!

There was only one word in the letter, cut!

Cut off all ties with each other!
