Chapter 806: Nan Family Trial and Result (4)
So, Concubine Mei could calm down and wait while praying within her heart.
But Nan Xin was not as patient as her mother. While clutching her mother's sleeve, Nan Xin's eyes turned red. She had visited various doctors all over the kingdom in order to cure her face, but not all of them had succeeded so far.
This was driving her crazy.
And now that the entire Nan Family crumbled, Nan Xin's heart turned cold. She really wanted to say that she hadn't done anything wrong, but would they even bother to listen to her?
Women's status was low.
It was even more so in this world where they didn't have even the right to speak when they were facing a trial like this. All she could do was sob and wait for the final result.
And now, seeing that Nan Hua was unscathed, she felt extremely uncomfortable. She wanted to pull Nan Hua so that her older sister would be treated worse than her. But the guards were watching them intently.
There was even a sword hovering near her.
How could she possibly have the courage to try anything in this case?
She was already so scared right now.
Scared and angry.
As the young miss of the Nan Family, when had Nan Xin faced such a situation when death felt so close to her?
No matter how unwilling she was within her heart, she knew it was impossible for her to do anything. She could only stay in her place, hoping that things wouldn't turn so bad for her while hating her father for everything.
If only he was not so greedy and ambitious, would things actually turn out this way?
They would be just fine!
But Nan Xin knew that no matter how many times she cursed and blamed her father, it would not change anything. She was helpless in this matter and could only watch as things unfolded in front of her.
'I have to get away.'
'I don't want to die.'
The two thoughts swirled within Nan Xin's mind, threatening to break through. She clutched her fingers and lowered her head, trying her best to stay low and avoid attracting attention.
It was because she knew that if she were to attract more attention to her direction, there was simply no hope for her to survive.
She still wanted to live.
A long life that was very far from this despicable scheme that threatened to pull the entire Nan Family down.
"Xin'er, it's fine." Concubine Mei sensed her daughter's movement and her hand clutched her daughter's palm. No matter what, she would not allow her daughter to make a mistake at this juncture.
If they made the wrong step in front of everyone, wasn't it the same as dragging themselves into the mud.
"I know, Mom."
Nan Xin looked at her mother and then lowered her eyes again.
For a moment, she felt aggrieved.
Why did she have to be born from a weak mother who had no position in the Nan Family? If only her mother was more powerful, she would have long had an engagement and possibly could get away from this trial.
