Chapter 389: The Fourth Prince, Imprisoned

Murong Jiu hadn't had a nightmare for a very long time.

Sometimes, she was unwilling to recall the tragic past life seen in her dreams.

She knew what The Fourth Prince was trying to do; he wanted her to repeat her past mistakes, to watch helplessly as the people she cared about died in the most humiliating way.

Treason was the gravest crime in any dynasty, one that implicated the entire family for generations and brought eternal infamy.

After Yu Yan entered the palace, Murong Jiu became restless.

She knew that even if she followed him into the palace, she wouldn't be of any help; the Emperor wouldn't allow a woman to meddle in court affairs.

Unable to calm down, she went to Zhijin and Zhiyu's room.

The wet nurse was awakened, but Hong Yi waved to them to rest outside while Chun Tao quietly brought Murong Jiu a chair to sit and watch over the two young masters.
