Lin Yunran glanced at the direction of her finger, it seemed to be a separate room, with a lot of weeds growing around, and it was obvious that very few people took care of it.

Who will live there, and why does the Queen Mother often let people come here to see her?

"Thank you, sister." Lin Yunran took out a silver ingot and gave it to the palace maid who spoke.

"Don't worry, I'll keep my mouth shut and won't say anything as before." The maid took the silver and went away satisfied.

Lin Yunran walked to the room.

The door is locked, but there is a small opening in the window that allows you to see inside.

However, it didn't look very real that way, so Lin Yunran took off the hairpin on his head and easily opened the rusty lock.

The door was opened with a small crack, and the unpleasant smell came to my face.

Lin Yunran was almost fainted by the smoke.

Living in such a place, you can still survive, and your vitality is really tenacious.

Lin Yunran waited at the door for a while before pushing the door open.

The people in the room were chained, huddled in the corners, their faces full of horror.

"Who are you?" Lin Yunran took two steps forward and asked softly.

can be treated like this by the Queen Mother, and there is a chance that he will offend the Queen Mother.

And the offense is not light.

The other party babbled for a long time, but he couldn't say a word.

"Your tongue ......" Lin Yunran saw her abnormality, her tongue was obviously pulled out, so there was no way to speak.

The Queen Mother's methods are really extraordinary.

"I'm here to help you, but you have to tell me your share so I can help you." Lin Yunran endured the discomfort, took a few steps forward again, and gave her the hairpin in his hand, "What's your name, write it down." ”

The other party took the hairpin she gave and wrote a few words on the ground with difficulty-

Li Changning.

The concubines lived in the courtyard of the former emperor, so Li Changning must have been a member of the harem.

And now that she is so miserable, she can't see what she used to be at all.

However, it is very easy to inquire about her.

As long as you are willing to spend money, there is no secret in this palace that cannot be discovered.

"You offended the Queen Mother before you were locked up here?" Lin Yunran asked in a low voice.

Li Changning nodded, and tears instantly appeared in his eyes.

"If you can survive in a place like this, it shows that you are tenacious. As long as you hold on for a little longer, I'll find a way to get you out. Lin Yunran took the hairpin from her hand and opened her handcuffs and anklets.

Li Changning moved his hands and feet and looked out of the door.

"With your current (身shēn) body (情qíng) condition, it will be difficult to escape. So during this time, you have to move around a lot and slowly regain your mobility. Lin Yunran said.

Li Changning nodded, looking at her with a pair of puzzled eyes, as if he didn't know why she wanted to help herself.

"You...... Do you know Princess Ruwan? Lin Yunran didn't want to ask at this time, she was afraid that she would get a disappointed answer.

But since it has been chosen

Save people, even if she doesn't know Ru Wan, as long as she is not a heinous person, she should save her.

Li Changning's eyes lit up suddenly, she stretched out her dirty hands and grabbed Lin Yunran's sleeves, and nodded desperately.

"I'm here to find out the truth. I wonder why she left in the first place. Maybe you can give me the answer. It's just that now that you have no tongue and can't speak, I have to get you out of here first. ”

Li Changning's reaction made Lin Yunran very excited.

It seems that she not only knows Mrs. Lin, but also knows Mrs. Lin very well, otherwise she would not be so excited.

"You listen to me, first slowly regain your mobility here, and don't be seen. I'll come to see you often and bring you some supplements. When you get better, I'll take you out of here. Although Li Changning's hands were dirty, Lin Yunran still held those hands and gave her a smile.

Li Changning knelt on the ground and kowtowed heavily to her.

"There's no need to be so polite, I didn't save you out of all kindness, I still want to get the news I want from you."

Lin Yunran helped her up, and then quietly left the room.

She relocked the lock on the door, and there was no sign of anything unusual from the outside.

And the small window on the window, it is impossible to see the situation inside, as long as there is the sound of chains, the person who delivers the food will think that Li Changning is still locked.

"Where did you come from? Where have you been? The palace maid walked up to Lin Yunran (身shēn) and asked strangely.

She had just passed by, and she didn't see Lin Yunran's (body shēn) shadow, but she turned back, but she was here.

"I want to see if the window in the back can see what's going on inside. Who knew that going around found that the rear window was sealed. Lin Yunran explained.

"The windows here have long been sealed, and only the people inside can be seen from there. This Concubine Ning's life is really not ordinary. If I had been replaced, I wouldn't have been able to hold out for three days. She lasted three years! ”

Three years!

Lin Yunran was shocked.

Li Changning was imprisoned in it for three years?

"At first, the Queen Mother didn't plan to do this to her. But she refused to say anything, and finally angered the Queen Mother. A year ago, her tongue had been pulled out, her hands and feet were locked, and the door was locked and never opened. ”

When the palace maid said this, she realized that she had talked too much, and quickly shut up.

"Sister, it's better to say less about some things. The Queen Mother's mind is not something you and I can speculate. Lin Yunran took the pearl hairpin from her head and put it in her hand, "I also ask my sister to keep it a lot of secrets." Don't let anyone know. ”

"Don't worry, I still have this bit of proportion." The palace maid took the pearl hairpin that Lin Yunran had given her in her hand and left with a smile.

Lin Yunran saw her walk into a room, which was supposed to be where she lived.

This palace maid must know a lot of guilt (情qíng), so instead of asking someone else, it is better to ask her.

Lin Yunran came out of the concubine's courtyard, returned to Jixiang Palace, washed his hands, changed his clothes, lit incense, and was called by the queen mother before he could drink tea.

"Slave maid

month, I saw the Queen Mother. Lin Yunran saluted, raised his eyes and looked at the Queen Mother with a smile, still looking harmless to humans and animals.

And the Queen Mother looked at her with a complicated gaze.

"Where have you been for half a day?" The Queen Mother asked.

Lin Yunran felt a pang in her heart, but she was sure that she was not followed when she went to the concubine's house, so the queen mother didn't know about it.

The reason why she asked was because she had been out for more than an hour, and the Queen Mother would inevitably be suspicious.

"Slave maid...... The slave maid went to hide from King Qi (殿 diàn). Lin Yunran said with a snort.

"Hiding from King Qi? Why are you avoiding him? The Queen Mother listened to her words and was skeptical.
