Situ Su wore a moon white cotton skirt, covered with a cloak, and held a Momei silver silk umbrella in the wind and rain. The jade flowers splashed under the feet, and the whiskers had drifted into the distance. Yingxian immediately put down the yaoqin and chased after Bai Ying, always keeping a few feet away from Situ Su, and followed all the way to the northernmost hill. I saw Situ Su go straight to a cluster of huge rocks in the northwest, stretched out his hand to open the Manman grass blade, and pressed something. Where Yingxian's astonished gaze was cast, a stone door suddenly opened. Situ Su immediately got in, and the stone door slowly closed again, no different from before. The heavy rain poured on the hills, and the green leaves on the hills trembled in the wind, as if welcoming the female ghost of the mandrill, exuding a terrifying and treacherous atmosphere.

Ying Xian has been in Princess Wensi's mansion for nearly a month, and for the first time she found that Yunyin Yuan actually has a cave, not to mention the surprise, she can't wait to go into the cave immediately to find out. But at this moment, his legs seemed to be filled with lead, and he couldn't move a single step. Secretly: The princess probably doesn't want anyone to know about such a place. It would be bad if you rushed in now and were bumped into by the princess. It rained so hard tonight that I don't know when the princess will come out of the hole. As...... Why don't you come here early tomorrow morning and find out. Thinking so, he tried to calm down, turned around and walked quickly to Yinbipo, and ran back to his room with the qin. After bathing, I went to bed, but when I closed my eyes, my mind was full of the phantom of Situ Su hidden in the cave, how could I sleep peacefully? suddenly remembered that the meeting with Yingxue happened to be scheduled for tomorrow afternoon, so I wondered if I should tell her what I saw tonight. I couldn't sleep all night.

The sky is numb and bright, Yingxian jumps up from the bed, hastily groomed, walks into the courtyard, the sky rains and the wind breathes, the dew flows between the leaves and branches, and the dripping on the loose and wet soil, oozing wisps of fragrance, which makes Yingxian's spirit greatly invigorated. After making sure that there was no one behind him, he quickened his pace, and in a short time he came to the rock where the North Mountain was hiding. It took a lot of effort for Ying Xian to finally feel a vermilion bulge in the gap of one of the rocks, and when he pressed it, a stone door rumbled open in front of him.

Yingxian shouted "my God", her heart was pounding, she gritted her teeth, and resolutely walked in. As soon as I entered, the stone door closed automatically, and the light suddenly dimmed.

In front of me is a deep corridor, lined with blue-glazed chrysanthemum candlesticks flickering dimly lit, barely able to see the way clearly. Yingxian walked cautiously against the wall, and in the dim darkness she could even hear the sound of dripping water. The further you went, the dimmer the lights became, and the air became colder, as if a breath of death was pouring out. Yingxian's whole body trembled, and she became more and more afraid, but the matter had come to this, so she had to move slowly.

After a short walk, I turned a corner and the light suddenly brightened – and among the arched pillars with the base of the turtle, a beautiful garden came into view. The garden is surrounded by a two-storey pavilion with a high glazed ceiling. Directly north of the line of sight is a wall covered with green vines and embedded with green dragons, white tigers, vermilion birds, and basalt jade carvings. Two staircases are set up in a herringbone shape, converging on the top of the wall that connects with the railing on the second floor, and a stream of water silently falls into the octagonal pool under the wall. In the center of the garden is a large rectangular ground paved with white marble. A large coral is parked on the east and west sides, which is full of red and bright light. On the south side, a bronze tripod of wrong gold is placed. Hexagonal yarn silk palace lamp ten steps a hanging, all kinds of flowers and trees are sparsely planted in the garden, the willow is drunk, the peach is can, the pear blossom is like snow, the flower fragrance is spread layer by layer, and the smoke is like climbing for nine days.

Yingxian was stunned by this brilliant and gorgeous scene, and couldn't move her feet for a long time. The shoulder was patted, and he made an "ah" sound, and turned around in fright, but saw Situ Su looking at him with a smile, and his face suddenly turned red, and he couldn't say a word with his mouth open.

"Didn't I tell you that you can't enter this 'Phantom Time Palace' without my orders?" There was a hint of unhappiness in Situ Su's tone, but Ying Xian had never felt it.

Yingxian knew that she was wrong, and after thinking about it for a long time, she admitted: "Last night, I had a whim to practice on the Yinbi slope, and I saw ...... I saw you, the princess, so I followed you to the gate of this mountain. ”

"Then why didn't you come in last night?"

"Because there is no command from you...... And I really forgot about this place, so I came over early this morning to have a look, maybe ...... I may be able to remember the starting point. ”

Situ Su looked at Ying Xian silently, and was stunned when he saw Ying Xian, and suddenly said: "In the princess's mansion, there are only four people who know about this place. Don't come here secretly in the future, lest you arouse suspicion. ”

Four? In addition to the princess and herself, who are the other two? Ying Xian guessed and replied, "Yes, princess." ”

Situ Su sighed and said, "Since you're here, help me clean up the books upstairs." ”

*****

Yingxian followed Situ Su upstairs. The second floor of the "Phantom Time Palace" is a square corridor, and the courtyard is a wonderful view from the corridor railing. There were two huts on the east and west sides of the cloister, and Situ Su lit the lamps and candles in each room one by one. There were several oak bookshelves in each hut, and the shelves were lined up with books, and nothing else. The floors and bookshelves have accumulated a lot of dust. Without waiting for Situ Su's instructions, Yingxian had already shuttled through the houses, and found that the East House had collected the collections of hundreds of schools of thought and literati of various generations, including well-known and unknown ones, such as "Stars Record", "Exotic Travel", "Yuyu Yaochen", etc., which Yingxian had never heard of. Westinghouse stores different versions of the history books of the past dynasties, official histories and wild histories, what "The Chronicles of the Nations", "Ladies' Jian", "Spring and Autumn Jingwei", "The Secret History of the Southern Court", "The New Theory of the Republic of China" and so on, I don't know who compiled it in which dynasty. Yingxian swept the dust and checked the broken pages of the book, and wondered: where did the princess get so many strange books? Why is this place called "Phantom Time Palace"? In any case, the princess in the name of "Wen Hei" can really afford it. If she goes to the fairy one day, what a precious inheritance these houses of books will be! Bah, why am I cursing her?

After a while, Situ Su walked over and saw Yingxian staring at a copy of "Warring States Policy" in a daze, so he asked, "What are you thinking?" ”

Yingxian remembered something and asked, "Princess, I wonder if there is a history book of this dynasty for me to read?" ”

"In the history of this dynasty, the historians in the palace are compiling, hehe, but they are not necessarily credible."

Ying Xian thought about it, and said dejectedly: "I don't know anything about the history of Yu Guo now, I'm really afraid that one day when I walk on the street, I will make a joke or cause some trouble." ”

Situ Su glanced at Yingxian and said, "Don't you still remember your father's affairs?" ”

"Alas...... That's all there is to me. ”

"If you really want to see these aged millet...... Maybe I'll bring one another day. ”

Bring a copy? What do you mean? Yingxian was about to ask a question, but heard Situ Su say, "It's not early." I'm also a little tired. That's all for today. Let's go. Do you have a book you'd like to take out to read? ”

Yingxian thought about it, then pinched the "Warring States Policy" in his hand, took out another volume of "Zhenguan Political Dignitaries", extinguished the lamp and candle, and walked out of the southwest bookstore side by side with Situ Su. Situ Su asked, "Why did you choose these two books?" Yingxian said: "I heard that the wisdom of the troubled times is better than the Warring States and the Three Kingdoms, and the wisdom of the monarch is like Tang Taizong, so these two books have to be read." ”

The two walked to the cloister, passing through the north, and Yingxian noticed that there was another carved wooden door, but it was locked by a silver gilt carved lock, and a faint chill escaped. Yingxian didn't dare to make a mistake, withdrew her curious gaze, and went downstairs in three steps and two steps. Situ Su took out a palace lamp, picked up the umbrella in the corner, extinguished the other lights in the garden, and returned the same way as Yingxian. Near the exit, Situ Su pressed on a protrusion under the outermost candlestick, and the stone door opened again.

Walking out of the "Phantom Time Palace", the eyes suddenly brightened. The sky is as clear as water, and the sun is warm, so you can bake your bones. The fresh smell of plants and trees flows with the spring breeze, soothing the nerves. Yingxian couldn't help but feel a feeling of a day in the cave and a year outside the cave. Turning his head, he saw Situ Su's tired face, and asked, "Did the princess stay in the Phantom Time Palace last night?" ”

Situ Su said "um" and said, "It's really hot to come out and wear this now." ”

"These books of the princess...... Does anyone else know? ”

"I don't know in the Phantom Time Palace. The house has its own study. Some books are available on both sides. In fact, I can't finish reading those books in my life, but one day I came across it and found it and kept it, hehe, it has become a habit. ”

Yingxian thought: The princess has read so many books, and she will not be less strategic. No wonder my sister wants me to spy on her...... Not unreasonable. Suddenly, I remembered the promise to meet today. I sighed in my heart: I still have to go to the palace to find her today. Who knows how to get to that place? You'll have to ask someone.

Yingxian had just discovered Situ Su's secret, and there was a ghost in her heart, so she didn't dare to ask Situ Su, and decided to go to Xiao Ningzi to inquire. I heard Situ Su advise again: "Don't tell anyone about the existence of the Illusory Time Palace. You can't come here without my permission, you know? ”

She trusted me a lot. Yingxian was quite ashamed, and said in her mouth: "Princess, don't worry. I won't tell anyone. But he was muttering in his heart: What about the sister in the palace? Do you want to tell her? Thinking that he was going to the legendary harem forbidden place in the afternoon, Yingxian's scalp was slightly numb, and he couldn't help but shudder. A cuckoo just swept through the branches, and the sound of "Bu Gu" was as miserable as blood.
