Qi Xiuwei's heart pounded in her chest as she read.
She worried for Pei Yin's safety.
Reading on, she saw that Pei Yin was worried about her too.
He had written a warning—
"Please be extremely careful when you enter the palace."
Qi Xiuwei was a little surprised.
'How did Pei Yin know that Grandmother wanted Father to arrange for me to enter the palace?'
But on second thought, she understood.
The Crown Prince would never agree to have any girl other than Shen Ningning serve as his female official.
So, if the Qi Family wanted to send her into the palace successfully, her father would certainly have to pull strings and call in favors.
'That must be how Pei Yin found out.'
She picked up her brush to write a reply, urging him to take care of his health as well. At the same time, an idea came to her.
「The next day, at breakfast.」
Qi Xiuwei took the initiative to bring up the matter of the plague.
