Chapter Seventy-Seven: The Secret Path

Lin looked at Zhen Pingle coldly, put his hands in his sleeves, and said, "Go in." ”

Zhen Pingle turned his head to face the Lin family suspiciously.

Lin turned his head away from her, and said mockingly: "Didn't you say that you wanted to see Mrs. Tai, why don't you dare to see it now?" ”

Zhen Pingle lowered his head and said in a muffled voice, "I just want to see her, but in fact, I ......"

"Let's go in and talk about it, what's the matter with blocking here?" Lin saw that Zhen Pingle just didn't take a step forward, stretched out his hand to push her into the secret passage, before the secret door closed, Zhen Pingle heard Lin's voice come vaguely, "Whether it's good or bad, it's all your own making, the way out, even if you regret it, you can only keep going......"

Zhen Pingle couldn't hear the latter words.

She closed her eyes and adjusted to the darkness, barely making out a glimmer of light when she opened them.

In fact, the dark passage does not look so gloomy from the outside, but it is not a matter of ventilation or design, and looking at it from the outside always gives people a deep feeling, and standing in the dark passage at this time, Zhen Pingle seemed to ask a light fragrance.

It seems to be ......

Tea scent!

Zhen Pingle was taken aback.

She took two steps back abruptly, startled by her sudden thoughts.

Standing quietly for a while, and with all her courage, she still walked forward firmly.

But after a dozen or so steps, there was a corner, and after turning the corner, I walked another ten steps, and another corner...... Zhen Pingle groped for the stone wall, and slowly walked deeper into it with the help of the oil lamp at each corner.

She didn't know how much time had passed, but it seemed like time had slowed down a lot.

After walking for a few more breaths, an empty inner room gradually appeared in front of Zhen Pingle's eyes.

She only slowed down in her steps, didn't pause, and continued to move forward.

The inner room is different from the dimness of the dark passage, just the inner room is full of oil lamps around it, and there are several more candles at the entrance, but Zhen Pingle knows very well that even more oil lamps and candles can't make the inner room look so bright.

So what exactly illuminates the inner chamber?

Zhen Pingle walked another seven or eight steps in confusion, and soon approached the center of the inner room.

She stared at the front, and involuntarily looked up at the bright convergence of eyes.

What a big night pearl!

Zhen Pingle's eyes stared at the bright and flickering Night Pearl, and her feet sped up, because the bottom of the dark passage was not very smooth, her attention was on the Night Pearl, and she accidentally tripped over a raised place, and the whole person rushed straight forward.

No one suddenly appeared to hug her, and Zhen Pingle hissed and got up.

"Hmm......"

When I lifted my knee pants, there was a bruise on my calf, but fortunately there was no bleeding, but it was going to hurt for a few days.

Zhen Pingle looked around the wound and saw that the injury was not very strict, so he didn't take it to heart, and sat on the ground and didn't get up for a while.

At this time, the surroundings fell silent, and she looked ahead, and she heard a sneer in horror.

"Hehe......"

The man's ridicule was very short, and Zhen Pingle was sure that there must be someone else in it.

She immediately got up and stood at the entrance of the inner room, looked around, and said with some uncertainty, "Who is it?" Be...... Mrs. Too? ”

The slight voice before suddenly calmed down, I don't know if it was Zhen Pingle's illusion, it felt like that person had left, and the faint stranger's breath disappeared.

Her heart was beating faster, and she was a little scared at this point.

Just as he spoke, a gentle voice sounded, "It's Miss, come in." ”

Zhen Pingle followed the voice and looked directly over, and then she saw the old woman who had appeared in the Grange was sitting at the top of the inner room, looking at herself with a smile.

Zhen Pingle's heart jumped a few times inexplicably, and he soon regained his calm.

The old woman stood up, left the throne inlaid with gold and silver, and slowly walked towards Zhen Pingle.

Zhen Pingle seemed to be choked by someone's throat, and it was very difficult to breathe and speak.

The old woman's eyes fell on Zhen Pingle, and seemed to fall behind her, the pearl earrings on her ears moved slightly, the hosta on her head was white and flawless, she stroked the jade bracelet on her wrist, a simple cyan cotton robe, and a pair of monk shoes on her feet, which was not a very normal outfit, but she wore a kind of wealth.

This is the first time that Zhen Pingle feels that he has difficulty breathing after being reborn, which comes from the coercion released by people who have been in high positions for a long time.

Last time, the old woman restrained this momentum, so Zhen Pingle didn't feel that the old woman was unusual, and this time I don't know if Zhen Pingle was hiding awe of the old woman in his heart, or just the old woman revealing her true face, she already felt that she had no shame to face this old man.

From her own humility, the far-reaching gap in her identity.

The old woman smiled slightly, in this dazzling time, she had already walked to Zhen Pingle's side, took her hand and walked to the inner room.

Seeing that Zhen Pingle was very cramped, the old woman patted Zhen Pingle's hand, like a wordless comfort and comfort, which made Zhen Pingle breathe a sigh of relief at the same time, shame also welled up in his heart.

What if the old woman misunderstood that she was a vexatious person?

Zhen Pingle couldn't stop thinking, she had a lonely courage to support her to ask the Lin family, but she didn't dare to be careless in front of the old woman, she was so noisy and noisy to see people before, and after seeing it, she felt that it didn't matter, her mind fluctuated too much, and she was a little afraid at this time.

This old man, but a person with absolute power of life and death, is not something that a small person like them can stick to, if she shows her timidity in front of the nobles and makes the nobles feel uncomfortable, she will have no hope in the future.

"What do you think?" The old woman looked at Zhen Pingle's unpredictable face and asked faintly.

Zhen Pingle bowed slightly, showed absolute respect, and said frankly to the old woman: "I'm just a little scared." ”

Who is the old woman, she was in a high position back then, and everyone in the world had to find ways to please her, but she just liked people who came and went straight, and she didn't want to hear people tell lies, everyone liked to listen to it, and the old woman was no exception.

But she is Mrs. Tai, the mother of the eldest princess of the former dynasty, in her old age, what she likes is the immature simplicity of children, and she has seen a lot of intrigues and tricks, and she wants to be innocent and lively at this time, Zhen Pingle stumbled into it by mistake, but it fell into the eyes of the old woman.

The old man took Zhen Pingle's hand and said with a sigh: "Child, you are a good one, and you will be better in the future." ”

Zhen Pingle couldn't figure out if this sentence had a deeper meaning, but listening to the old woman's tone, it didn't look like he was angry, Zhen Pingle exhaled slightly.
