Hua Manman finally managed to calm Madam He down. Then, she pulled Qing Huan and Si Yun aside and gave them quiet instructions.
"If I'm not back before dark, take the family letter hidden under my pillow and deliver it to Bian Ziming."
"Tell Bian Ziming to have someone deliver that letter to Prince Zhao."
"Also, he must send men here to escort my parents and family, and Princess Rouwan, to the Tiger Roar Camp."
"You must remind Bian Ziming that if anything happens to my family or Prince Zhao's, he won't just lose his future—he'll lose his life."
"Got it?"
Si Yun wiped her tears and nodded. "I understand."
Qing Huan said, "Let me... accompany... the Princess Consort... to... the palace."
Hearing this, Si Yun quickly added, "I want to go with the Princess Consort to the palace too!"
Hua Manman said, "If you both go to the palace with me, who will deliver my message? You're the only ones I can trust right now."
