"Ouyang, consort condemned for colluding with outside officials and plotting rebellion. The evidence is conclusive." Xiao Lin's voice echoed over the silent execution ground. "The poisoned wine is here. Drink three cups, then be on your way. Don't expect anyone to hear your pleas in the afterlife."
Ouyang Weiwei lifted her head and looked at the emperor, renowned for his brutality and bloodlust.
[Ding! The Host's life is in critical danger. Immediate activation of the emergency protocol is recommended.]
A cold electronic voice rang out in her mind.
Ouyang Weiwei rolled her eyes inwardly.
[Ding! The Host's emotions are fluctuating. A friendly reminder: your current persona is a "delicate white lotus." Please mind your facial expressions.]
"Oh, thank you so much," Ouyang Weiwei gritted her teeth inwardly.
She really had transmigrated into an old-fashioned tragic romance novel called The Emperor's Cherished One. The original owner was the daughter of the Minister of Revenue. After her family was falsely accused of rebellion and exiled, she was banished to the Cold Palace. Now old charges had been dredged up, and she was being dragged to the execution ground.
According to the original plot, this was the day the original owner was supposed to die. She would drink the poisoned wine and breathe her last, then the heroine, Liu Ruyan, would make her dazzling entrance, become Xiao Lin's true love, and rise to the top.
A very good novel, looking forward to the sequel.
