405 The Curse

Chenglei didn't meet with Xing for the next few days and Xing was walking around with Su Yunxi as she made rounds around the inner palace to see if all the preparations are going well. In the red phoenix robes and hairdress, she looked elegant and poised.

"I heard many women were sent to the inner palace", Xing initiated the talk that Yunxi was hesitating to bring up. Xing had noticed the stacks of scrolls of paintings of women from various families that were sent to Su Yunxi but was withheld by her supposed brother since he knew it would hurt his wife.
