Who's This?

Why?

Lady Liu didn't know how to explain herself. Actually, even if she wanted to, she couldn't. She knew if she spoke a single word about it, her husband would die a terrible death because she wasn't the only spy the king had hidden among the old servants who had taken care of His Highness since young.

If she opened her mouth, her husband would die immediately without seeing the light of the day. If she wanted to keep her man alive, she would have to kill herself.

Her entire old, wrinkled body trembled as she finally raised her hand. There was something hidden in her hand as she brought it toward her mouth and was about to stuff the thing inside when someone grabbed her hands.

"Lady Liu, you have changed a lot. I remembered you being a jolly young woman." The man had a teasing note in his tone as he said, "I didn't think you would be a suicide type."
