141 Plans She Made for the Ran Family

The next morning the palace brightened up with a clear winter sky and for Xing the warm sun rays were like a mirage in a desert and gave her no warmth. Xing woke up as usual and made a list of things she must do that day. She had hopes that she might meet Shengli tonight and that lightened up her heavy heart but she had this deep uneasy feeling in her heart that something big will happen today and never in her wildest dreams did she imagine that tonight she's going to face a trial and lose something she values a lot, wishes for a lot...

Xing went to meet her father after the morning court and tried to convince him to take in Ran Weici but he refused as she expected. Xing could feel her father getting too heated up and so she just let him be and went to find her uncle who's been hiding from her.
