After the door was closed, Wanyun looked at the maids by her side and said, "If a single word of what you just heard gets out, I will not spare your lives."
Qing Feng, Xi Yu, Ningshuang, and the other maids quickly knelt and said in unison, "We will never reveal a single word of what we just heard."
Wanyun breathed a sigh of relief. "Tie up that mother and daughter and sell them off to Yangzhou City."
In the end, Wanyun couldn't bring herself to kill them to keep them quiet. By selling the mother and daughter to Yangzhou, she figured they would never have a chance to return to Chang'an.
And she wouldn't have to worry about her husband finding out she had taken the sterilization medicine.
The maids assented.
Xi Yu helped Wanyun back to Chaohua Courtyard.
Back in Chaohua Courtyard, Wanyun's face was deathly pale. Xi Yu touched her hand. "My lady, why are your hands so cold?"
