Encountering Danger

"Yu Yunxi, weren't you righteously trying to avenge my sister earlier? Now that her corpse is about to be burned, why don't you say anything?" Jian Si asked, trying to goad Yu Yunxi.

Yu Yunxi clenched her hands and asked, "Oh, you still know she's your sister? However, you won't even let her rest in peace?"

"How can Eldest Sister be more important than my own well-being? If you don't want us to burn her corpse, put down your swords!" Jian Si said as her voice grew sharper.

Yu Yunxi gripped her sword tightly. She had nowhere to vent her anger. Finally, she said hoarsely, "Fine. I'll put down my sword, but you have to put down the torch in your hand."

Jian Xin was a pure, kind, and beautiful person. Now that she was dead, how could she allow Jian Xin's corpse to be burned?

Qian Qing's eyes reddened when she saw Yu Yunxi putting down her sword. Then, she shouted, "County Princess, don't! They're lying to you!"
