"Are you teasing me?" Fang Lin sneered, totally disbelieving Dream Falling Flower's words.
It was simply ridiculous: a confidante of the Crown Prince asserting she could plot with me to kill the Crown Prince Zhou Yishui—it was a tale for fools.
Steward Shen and Dugu Nian also seemed incredulous with expressions of skepticism about Dream Falling Flower's motives.
Dream Falling Flower smiled brightly, "I am not jesting. The Crown Prince has long intended to get rid of me. Allying with you to do away with him would be a way to protect myself."
Fang Lin's brow furrowed: "Why would the Crown Prince want to get rid of you?"
Dream Falling Flower replied, "Because I am aware of numerous secrets of the Crown Prince. If I remain alive, there lies the risk of those secrets being exposed."
"I can't believe your words." Fang Lin shook his head.
