"Miss, please be careful."
Li Qi reminded her lady to keep away from the harm's way probably for the hundredth time.
"I will. Now, you two should stop worrying about me and focus on tidying up the fourth courtyard. Heat the leftover food that we brought yesterday night and eat it. I'll bring rations when I'll return." Ying Yue reminded the two girls before she fixed the veil on her face.
The girls looked worried and definitely not happy about letting their Miss step out of the Cold Palace all alone.
However, even after begging for hours to get the permission of following her, they received nothing but strict instructions from their Miss to stay in the Cold Palace and help her in cleaning the fourth courtyard.
What else they could do other than following her order and praying for her safety?
The two girls watched with worried eyes as their Miss disappeared through the trapdoor which led to the underground tunnel.
