Chương 178: Allure of the Wall

Lei Xing tiredly sat in the pavilion in her palace, she had ended up staying up for most of the night. She was not even sure how she passed the time, it was all a blur. All she remembered was that she fell asleep looking at the first rays of the sun filtering in through the windows.

And she woke up this morning to a gift box of jewelry from the Emperor. She stared at the box for a while with a frown and then she got up and went outside. The room was suffocating and she could not stand it anymore.

So now here she sat in the pavilion, staring at the flowers and the "beautiful" wall. It seems she had finally come to understand the Emperor's fascination with the wall that long-ago night of the lantern festival.

Xiao Ruo returned from her information hunt session and Lei Xing absentmindedly listened as she went on about the gossip of the day.
