Chapter 24: Entering the Palace

When the pain is extreme, it will be numb.

Yun He had forgotten when Yi Wen had left this dungeon, the ground was covered in blood, but the ten shaved nails were gone.

The priest stood outside and waited.

It was a garden, beautiful and peach-green, and the air was much fresher than that disgusting cell.

The fresh air wafted with a sweet fish, the smell of blood.

Yi Wen held the ten bloody nails with a piece of silk cloth and respectfully presented them to the priest.

The priest glanced at it and said with satisfaction, "Yiwen, you have done a good job. I believe that His Highness's expression will definitely be more painful than killing him!"

Being hurt by someone you respect the most is naturally painful.

An inn in the imperial capital.

That night, Tang Zixi had a terrible dream. She dreamed that Yunhe was covered in blood and fell to the ground, calling her name in pain.

"Yunhe!"

Tang Zixi was so frightened that she woke up from her dream and sat up, her whole body soaked with cold sweat.

She burst into tears.

She was glad it was just a dream, but she was a person with a divine book, and her instincts were always more accurate than ordinary people. Such a dream is probably not as simple as thinking about it every day. Yunhe's current situation may be worse than in the dream.

"I'll enter the palace tomorrow! I'll come to save you tomorrow! Wait for me!"

Tang Zixi's heart roared with grief and indignation.

I couldn't sleep for a long night, guarding the flickering light and lonely lamp. In the quiet of the night, only Tang Zixi was heard crying softly.

In a moment, there was a knock on the door.

Tang Zixi suppressed her crying and asked, "Who?"

"It's me, Xiaoyan. A young man's voice came from outside.

It's Cho Young-yan!

Tang Zixi hurriedly went to open the door.

Zhao Yingyan stood outside the door with a sad face, and behind him stood Yi Wu and Yan Shaoqin. And the lion tiger beast has turned into a little white cat, standing at the feet of Zhao Yingyan with its head down.

"Come in and talk about it!" Tang Zixi asked them to come in.

"Xiaoyan, is there any news from Yunhe?" Tang Zixi asked anxiously.

Zhao Yingyan shook his face sadly.

"We all inquired and no one saw the host. The liger said that at that time, the priest appeared on an eagle, and it is estimated that after he succeeded, he also went back on the eagle. It was also normal for people on the ground not to see his whereabouts. Zhao Yingyan said in a calm voice.

"These days, we have searched all corners of the imperial capital. The most suspicious place is the Royal Palace. Yan Shaoqin added.

"I have a soul connection with my master, but I can't sense where he is at all now, I just feel that he is still alive, and there is only one possibility, he is trapped in the barrier. Zhao Yingyan said again: "Among mortals, I am afraid that the only thing that can cut off my induction is the enchantment of the priests." And in the entire imperial capital, the only place where that kind of enchantment will appear is the imperial palace. ”

"Let's go to the palace together tomorrow!" Yi Wu said firmly.

"Okay!" Tang Zixi nodded.

Subsequently, the three of them were taken into the divine book space by Tang Zixi along with the liontooth beast.

The next day, Tang Zixi entered the palace.

Since Emperor Lie was only going to summon Tang Zixi, Tang Zhongli and Tang Ziyu couldn't enter until they escorted her to the main gate of the palace, so they had to go back to the inn and wait for Tang Zixi's news.

The moment he stepped into the palace gate, Tang Zixi sensed a force scanning over him.

This is the power of enchantment!

There is indeed an enchantment in the palace, and the strength level is still in the Nine Realms of the Sky Realm.

If they weren't allowed to enter, I'm afraid they wouldn't even be able to enter even the monks who had returned to the Nine Realms of the Skyclave.

Zhao Yingyan They were hiding in Tang Zixi's divine book space, so they could naturally come in unharmed.

In Tang Zixi's eyes, the splendid and majestic palace was nothing more than a prison for her beloved.

Respectful and eloquent, majestic guards with weapons, gorgeously dressed and beautiful palace maids, these people are just black and white backs in Tang Zixi's eyes.

In her mind, what she searched for was that slender shadow. However, Emperor Lie and the priests had the intention to imprison Yunhe, so how could they be seen by themselves so easily?

The official meeting with Emperor Lie is scheduled for tomorrow morning. Today, the guards of the palace just arranged Tang Zixi to live in a side hall, which is located on the right side of the main entrance, and this side hall is called the Vermilion Bird Palace.

When they arrived in a corner where no one was around, Tang Zixi released Zhao Yingyan and them.

"You all put safety first, be careful in everything!" Tang Zixi advised.

Everyone exchanged glances with each other and then went their separate ways.

Among Zhao Yingyan, Yan Shaoqin and Yi Wu, even Yi Wu is the most familiar with the palace. After all, Yi Wu is the brother of Yi Wen Taifu, who had taken refuge in the Yan family more than 20 years ago, and usually had many opportunities to enter and leave the palace.

There is one more day, you let Tang Zixi wait here obediently, where can she wait, maybe her beloved little husband is suffering at this moment.

Zhao Yingyan and the others have already gone to find it, and Tang Zixi has also tried to find a way. So, she quietly walked out of the side hall. It's a big deal to be recognized, and say that you are lost.

Whenever I am confused, the divine book in my mind will always guide me.

Tang Zixi's heart suddenly ignited a glimmer of hope!

That's right, the divine book gave her a hint again, as long as she keeps looking for one aspect, maybe she can find Yunhe.

Before he knew it, Tang Zixi walked into the depths of the palace. It is more luxurious than the side hall, and even the pool is set with gold and diamonds. The diamonds on the ground are carved from jade. Even if you throw a small stone here and go back, it will be a priceless treasure......

Yulou Yuyu can only be described by these four words.

Tang Zixi is not the first time he has been back to such a place. In the palace of the Fire Wolf Country before, Tang Zixi once lived in a palace very similar to here. She almost became Xiao Dan's canary.

The same splendid palace, the same Yunhe is also missing.

The tragedy repeated, which made Tang Zixi feel inexplicably sad. I have a disgust for such a place.

It's strange that there isn't even a single guard.

Tang Zixi's heart was beating hard, and she felt that the induction was getting stronger and stronger, and she was getting closer and closer to Yunhe.

At this moment, a voice suddenly said behind her, "Miss Tang, why are you here?"

Tang Zixi was startled and turned her head sharply.

It was a young man with a heroic face and an extraordinary appearance. This person turned out to be Ah Che whom Tang Zixi met at the inn.

At this moment, Ache had already changed into that dirty set of clothes. The clothes he wore were still simple, still fine fabrics. It's just that in this palace with strict hierarchies and many rules, a young man wearing "civilian clothes" suddenly appeared, which seemed a little out of place.

"Acher, I'm lost. However, why are you here?" Tang Zixi also asked in surprise.

Ah Che smiled, "Have you forgotten? I told you that I work in the Imperial Study! Of course I will be here." ”

Tang Zixi was stunned for a moment: "You mean, this is the imperial study?" She couldn't figure out why the divine book wanted to bring her here. It stands to reason that if you confine a person, you should be in a prison cell or something, and the imperial study is the emperor's study!

Ah Che said again: "Miss Tang, it seems that we are destined! But I'm really ashamed to say that I haven't raised enough funds to redeem that jade pendant yet." Tired Miss Tang to be more accommodating for a while. ”

Tang Zixi hurriedly said: "Ah Che, you are serious, it has only been many days." Besides, your jade pendant is worth far more than 100,000. If it's put on me, I'm taking advantage of it. ”

Ah Che smiled: "Hehe, it seems that Tang Zixi is a person who cherishes jade, and may know how to cherish this jade pendant more than me, the true owner of the jade pendant." It's better to do this, I will buy this jade pendant as if you paid 100,000 Chiyan coins. From today onwards, you are the owner of the jade pendant. ”

"Ah Che, don't be joking!" Tang Zixi felt that Ah Che was very strange.

A priceless treasure, he was willing to sell it for 100,000 yuan. How does it sound, as if he deliberately gave jade to himself.

"I'm not kidding. Miss Tang, I am grateful for your kindness and help in times of crisis. It's just a piece of jade, can't it compare to our friendship? Ah Che said indifferently: "People in the world use money to measure value, I believe that Miss Tang is not such a person, right?"

Well, Tang Zixi is not stupid. If you can't see this, this Ah Che is deliberately pleasing herself, she is in the water in her brain. However, he has no clue about looking for Yunhe now, and this Ah Che is very likely to be the person next to Emperor Lie, if he maintains a good relationship with him, he may be able to help him find Yunhe.

Thinking of this, Tang Zixi said, "Okay! Ah Che, I'll take this jade pendant." ”

Ah Che smiled with satisfaction.

He smiled, his eyebrows and eyes like weeping willows in spring. At such an instant, Tang Zixi suddenly saw the shadow of Yunhe from his smile.

Obviously two people with opposite appearances and identities, why do the images overlap?

Tang Zixi reminded herself that it must be because she missed Yunhe too much that she hallucinated.

"Miss Tang, where are you going? Why don't I send you back? I am very familiar with the terrain of the palace. Ah Che asked.

"Okay. Tang Zixi estimated that nothing could be found in this exploration, and now it would be good for Ah Che to take him back, at least Ah Che was a person in the palace, so it would not make people suspicious.

"Ah Che, please take me to the Vermilion Bird Palace. I'll be staying there for the next few days. Tang Zixi said.

"Vermilion Bird Palace, could it be that Miss Tang is the new alchemy master Tang Zixi?" Ah Che said with a smile: "Miss Tang is really young and promising!"

"Ache, you've won the prize. Tang Zixi smiled embarrassedly.

"Tang Zixi of Qingtong County, who became an alchemy master at the age of nineteen, is the youngest alchemy master in the history of the entire Danshen Sect, His Majesty is very favored, and specially summoned Tang Zixi into the palace to serve as the chief of the alchemy room. This incident has been rumored to be a good story, and everyone knows it, but I am late, and I am only now reacting. Ah Che said:

"Miss Tang, in fact, as soon as you come to the imperial capital, as long as you inform the people in the embassy, the palace will naturally send someone out to receive you, why bother to live in that kind of small inn?"

"I just don't want to be too noticeable. I'm not familiar with life here, so it's better to keep a low profile. Tang Zixi replied.

The two walked and chatted, and they were about to walk out of the imperial study.
