"I know you hate me."
Consort Jing looked up at Master Mei, her tone sorrowful, "If heaven had given me another chance, I would never betray you again, but life has no remedy for regret. Seeing you now, all I hope for is your forgiveness."
"The forgiveness of a commoner?"
Mei Yuzong forced a bitter smile, "If it would put Your Majesty at ease, this commoner would never let Your Majesty be disappointed. Besides, too much time has passed, and I have long since let it go."
Consort Jing thought to herself that he was lying. If he had truly let go, why would he still keep that handkerchief? If he had truly let go, why would he specifically come here to see her?
But since he said so, Consort Jing felt relieved.
She indeed felt guilty towards Mei Yuzong, but after so many years had passed, even the deepest hatred would have been eroded by time.
After so many years, to meet in the depths of the palace, doesn't it also show that their destinies were intertwined and unbroken?
