Chapter 25: The Night Palace

At the beginning of the day, in a small alley in Lin'an City, two petite beggars shuttled quickly.

"Miss, where are we going, why do we have to dress so strangely?"

Maybe it's because people haven't gotten up yet, and the silence around is terrible, Qinghe subconsciously lowered his voice and asked his young lady.

"Let's go ......"

Xiao Shuihan caught a glimpse of a place in front of him, and his eyes instantly lit up.

"Here we are."

"Huh? Arrived? Where's it going? This, Miss, where is this? ”

Qing He looked east and west, but he didn't see where her young lady's destination was.

"That's it."

Xiao Shuihan pointed to the inconspicuous house not far in front of him, and stared sharply ahead.

That little house was her target this time.

"So, where?"

"Miss, that's an ordinary house, why did Miss go there?"

Qing He looked at the house in front of her, and was very puzzled why her young lady was interested in it.

"NO NO NO, THAT'S NOT AN ORDINARY HOUSE, IT'S - NIGHT PALACE"

Qing He was instantly stunned when he heard these two words, and stopped moving forward.

"Let's go, go with your young lady and I'll be brave."

Xiao Shuihan didn't look at Qinghe and walked with his legs raised, and after walking a few steps, he felt that something was wrong, so he stopped and looked back.

"Qinghe, why don't you leave, hurry up, the night palace will be closed in a quarter of an hour, why are you stunned, hurry up."

"Little, miss, what are we going to do there? It was a night palace that everyone feared, and I heard that many people were carried out after entering. ”

The more Qing He thought about it, the more terrifying he felt, and his legs shook slightly unconsciously.

"Qinghe, you shouldn't be scared!"

If you don't go there, how can you get the news she wants.

Although she also thought it was quite scary when she first learned about this place through the memories of the original owner, she had to go this time. However, it seems that it is a bit hasty to bring Qing He with her, her original intention is just to let Qing He follow her to experience, so that she can be more sure in the face of danger in the future.

But she was more curious about how the original owner knew about this place.

"Where, how can there be, I, I'm not afraid, Qinghe has already sworn that Miss will go wherever Qinghe goes in the future. Even if it is the Longtan Tiger's Den, as long as you are with Miss, there is no reason to be afraid. ”

Qinghe: Woo...... I'm still scared

"Are you sure?"

Xiao Shuihan looked at Qing He, who was obviously incorrect, and suddenly felt funny, not to mention, this kind of Qing He is quite cute.

"OK, let's go!"

In order to verify that he was not lying, Qing He took the lead and walked forward.

Xiao Shuihan shook his head and followed.

In fact, Qinghe can stay outside, there is a frightening rule in this night palace, as long as you step into the night palace within a radius of 100 miles, no matter who it is, you must not provoke and fight, let alone cause death. And there have always been people secretly watching in the night palace, as long as someone does not follow the rules, they will be killed.

As for what Qing He said about standing up and going in and lying down, she thought it was this what she should be referring to.

It's simple, she's just going to buy news, not to stir up trouble.

But there is one thing she is quite curious, who is the master of this night palace, who is so capable, and he has grown up under the emperor's nose silently. And even if he killed the dignitaries, kings and nobles, no one dared to care, and even the emperor sitting in a high position was helpless.

It is rumored that many years ago, the eldest son of the fourth prince was killed by a sword by the people in the night palace because of trouble. The fourth prince lost his beloved son, single-handedly killed the night palace, and almost lost his life to escape, but he failed to avenge his eldest son, and later died due to heavy injuries.

When the emperor heard about this, Long Yan was furious and directly ordered tens of thousands of soldiers to surround and suppress the Night Palace, but he was also repelled by the people of the Night Palace with thunder. The people of the Night Palace said that as long as they obeyed the rules of the Night Palace, they would never kill innocents indiscriminately, nor would they threaten the throne, but would give appropriate help.

Xu is the emperor saw that the other party had no malicious intentions, but he still got some benefits. He never took care of the Night Palace again, but warned everyone who went to the Night Palace not to stir up trouble at will, so that outsiders would see that the Night Palace was under the jurisdiction of the emperor.

In fact, anyone with a discerning eye knows that the emperor is only temporarily lurking, waiting to seize the handle of the night palace and break it in one fell swoop.

"Who's coming? Do you know the rules for coming to my night palace? ”

Before Xiao Shuihan arrived, he instinctively felt that there were several eyes watching him secretly. The voice in the night palace also came out, which showed that the strength of this person in the night palace was so strong, and she was inexplicably interested in the person behind it.

She didn't believe that the outside world said that this night palace was subordinate to the emperor.

"I know the rules in the night palace, as for who it is, I don't think I need to say it."

There is an unwritten rule in this night palace, that is, no matter who you are, as long as you want to get what you want from here, you must take off your fancy clothes, pretend to be a beggar, and get the approval of the people in the door before you can enter the house.

"Huh...... Children are rampant...... Aren't you afraid that your chances will be ruined by your words? ”

"Huh...... What the predecessors said is not kind, since everyone who comes here must take off their fancy clothes and pretend to be a beggar before they can come. Doesn't this mean that you can't show up in your own identity, so why is it wrong for the younger generation to say this? ”

Xiao Shuihan replied calmly without fear, which made the people inside have a little affirmation.

"Little, miss, that's the Night Palace, you ......"

How dare the young lady talk to that person like this, if this trouble is not good, she will lose her life, is the young lady not afraid?

"It's okay, this girl is here to buy news with money, and she is not here to beg them to do something."

That's right, although this night palace is quite admirable in the front, as long as they are willing to take orders and enter this door, they still have to take out something of the same value to be considered successful. As for these things, such as gold and silver, treasures and curiosities are all possible.

In her opinion, this night palace is just eating salted fish and dipping it in soy sauce - more than that

directly said that you can't buy it with money, and it is so noble, it is really grandstanding.

Don't ask her how she knew it so clearly, if you ask her, she can only say that she doesn't know either, because this memory seems to appear out of thin air, without a trace.

The people inside were quiet for a long time, and there was a faint trace of depression in the air, and the people were a little out of breath.

Xiao Shuihan was still standing straight, without the slightest nervousness, waiting indifferently for the person inside the door to speak.

Relative...... It's old-fashioned, you must know that she couldn't hand in the manuscript before, and when she couldn't practice her movements well, she was often "treated" so "favorably" by the boss and coach, and she would be afraid of these.

Just when Qing He was about to lose it anymore and was almost crazy, the person inside the door finally spoke.

"Hahaha...... But you have the courage to leave the little girl next to you, and you come in! ”

As the words fell, the door opened.

Insider: This little girl is getting more and more interesting, but I don't know what her ability is now.

"Little, Miss......"

Qing He was about to follow in, although her legs trembled with fear.

"It's okay...... You can wait here with peace of mind, and I will come when I go. ”

Xiao Shuihan calmly walked into the door, and the door closed at this moment.

As soon as she stepped on the ground, she felt a strong wind coming, and because of her instinctive reaction, she immediately turned sideways and punched, knocking the incoming person back a few steps.

"What do you mean, senior?"

mmp! Dare to sneak attack her.

The person who came found that his move was blocked, and a moment of surprise flashed in his eyes, and then he stood aside with an indifferent face.

"Haha, little girl, yes, I don't know if you can take the old man's palm."

said that it was too late, and before Xiao Shuihan could see the person's appearance clearly, the senior instantly bounced up, turned his palm outward, and swooped away in front of Xiao Shuihan.

She just wanted to scold her mother, but she saw someone move.

hurriedly accumulated his strength to take this palm, but he was also forced to spit out a mouthful of red liquid by the man's palm.
