Huaqing Palace.
"Consort, Consort, something terrible has happened, it's all gone wrong..." Cai Xia stumbled and crawled, bursting into the inner chamber in a panic. When she saw the appearance of the Noble Consort, she froze completely: "Consort, what are you..."
Xue Wanjun lifted her almond-shaped eyes towards her, with a flowing gaze, and smiled brightly: "Doesn't this appearance look beautiful on me?"
"Beautiful...beautiful..." Cai Xia muttered, stupefied, unable to make sense of the situation despite her cleverness, but the urgency outside didn't allow her time to think.
She said anxiously: "Consort, things are bad outside. Those who were supposed to rescue us, they misunderstood the signals, and have now caused a huge problem. I'm afraid it will implicate us..."
"Heh, rescue? Implicate?" Xue Wanjun looked at her with deep significance, as if she had heard a joke, and laughed to herself joyfully.
