The moonlight slanted in through the half-hidden window, and the room without a palm light was small and dark, and the musty smell of the room could be clearly smelled from all sides of the room between breaths.

Of course, all kinds of noisy sounds are indispensable to embellished this silent night, making it even more difficult for Ye Hongzhao, who was originally a light sleeper, to sleep peacefully.

Just now, Ye Hongzhao was awakened by a nightmare.

Her forehead was dripping with beads of sweat, and most of her clothes were wet, sticky to her body, making her very uncomfortable.

She woke up, but instead of getting up immediately, she opened her eyes wide, looked at the dark couch, and felt the panicked beating of her heart in the middle of the night.

Where is this?

Why am I still alive?

Ye Hongzhao's amber eyes rolled uneasily, and the scene before she died was clearly imprinted in her mind.

In the cold palace of Yongxiang, the queen was wearing a phoenix dress as red as blood, holding a white silk, circling around her neck, saying words of sisterhood in her mouth, but the strength in her hand increased little by little, until she stopped breathing and had no strength to struggle, the queen let go of her hands with a smile.

At that time, her soul was floating in the air, and when she heard the queen instruct Chang Jingzhong, her body was gouged out of her eyes, her arms were cut off, and she was thrown into a mass grave hundreds of miles away from Daming Palace, and let the beasts eat it.

Why did the queen hate her so much?

Ye Hongzhao didn't understand, obviously she was already the queen of one person and above ten thousand people, and she was just a waste concubine who was struggling in the cold palace, why did the queen still try her best to kill herself at the last moment?

Is it just because her son is the crown prince?

But so what? Even if Sui'er really ascends the throne as the emperor in the future, she is the queen, the prince's mother-in-law, and the well-deserved queen mother, even if she can get out of this cold palace, she may not be able to become a concubine, why should she be like this......

Countless thoughts crossed Ye Hongzhao's mind.

One is the queen's hideous face.

Suddenly, I saw Xue'er stretching out her immature fingertips.

It was Murong Shu's resolute eyes.

It was the last touch of reluctance before the grandmother's parting.

The wind of the long night, through the window, carried a cold breath, blowing through everything around her.

It seemed that the past was in front of her, but she couldn't catch it anymore, and she couldn't touch it.

She didn't know whether she was alive or dead now, and everything around her was so familiar, and she could really hold it when she reached out to touch it.

Is he alive again?

But she obviously heard the queen's instructions, if she really came back to life, she shouldn't be like this......

At least it won't still be in the Daming Palace

Everything here was all too familiar to her

This is the ear room of Yongxiang, which is a place for concubines who make mistakes to live, and during the years when Murong Shu ascended the throne, the harem has always been peaceful, so this room has been vacant for a long time.

If it weren't for the fire in the cold palace the year before last, she wouldn't have known where she had lived here for a while.

Why did I wake up here?

"Hongzhao." A figure suddenly appeared outside the house, bowing down, and talking cautiously, "Are you asleep?" ”

Red Zhao?

Ye Hongzhao was a little flustered, she heard it right, that person was calling her name, but whether she should answer her or not made Ye Hongzhao very embarrassed.

"I've got you something to eat." Seeing that no one in the room answered, the man lowered his voice and continued: "You hold on for another day, and tomorrow will be fine." ”

Ye Hongzhao listened to her tone, as if she was very concerned about herself, although she was a little nervous, but in the end she still spoke: "I haven't slept yet, do you want to come in?" ”

When the man heard Ye Hongzhao say this, he immediately stood up straight, and said very happily: "Hongzhao, great, I'm going to come in." ”

Ye Hongzhao lifted the quilt, took the coat from the small rock at the head of the bed and draped it over her shoulders, she stepped forward to open the door, there was a handsome girl, Mo about fifteen or sixteen years old standing at the door, still holding a vermilion lacquer tray in her hand, there were two plates of delicate snacks on the plate, one is jujube paste cake, the other is osmanthus cake, these are not Ye Hongzhao's favorite food, but most of the concubines in the palace like it, especially the osmanthus cake, the fragrance is strong, and the tongue is fragrant after eating, which is very popular with everyone.

When the girl saw Ye Hongzhao, she smiled and was full of joy, and her big watery eyes glanced outside as she walked into the room.

"Hongzhao, let me tell you, this is what I have worked so hard to get to Aunt Fanzhi, you are not allowed to have any left, you have to eat it all for me." The girl lay the tray on the only round table in the room, took a piece and put it in her mouth, and muttered something delicious.

"I'm not hungry." Ye Hongzhao's least favorite thing to smell is the aroma of osmanthus, she always feels that the fragrance is too domineering and very nasal rushing, although it will be slightly better to make pastries, but Ye Hongzhao still doesn't like it.

"You're not hungry? You haven't eaten in three days? The girl's eyes widened, looking at Ye Hongzhao like a monster, she felt that there was something wrong with Ye Hongzhao, but she couldn't say what was wrong, was it her eyes, or the tone of her voice? It seems to be a little bit.

Ye Hongzhao was silent, and he didn't know how to answer her for a while.

Three days? Have I eaten every three days? Why don't I feel it at all?

"What's my name?" Ye Hongzhao suddenly asked the girl.

The girl casually pinched another piece of jujube paste and stuffed it into her mouth, "Hongzhao." ”

"Full name."

"Nie Hongzhao." The girl clapped her hands, put her hand on Ye Hongzhao's forehead, and put her other hand on her forehead, she didn't have a fever, why did she suddenly start talking nonsense, and she didn't even know what her name was.

Ye Hongzhao sensed that something was wrong, especially the content and tone of what this girl said to her.

She is alive, but she is no longer alive as Ye Hongzhao.

She remembered that when she was still in the cold palace, there was a show girl, because of jealousy, she pushed the best of the show girls of the same class into the Taiye pool and almost died, and the aunt in charge Fan Zhi told the queen about it as soon as possible, and the queen saw that the family background of the show girls was the dragon and phoenix among the people, and the show girl who fell into the water was not a big problem, but she choked a few mouthfuls of water, so she was not heavily punished, but was just imprisoned in Yongxiang as a warning.

That incident happened two days before she died.

At that time, she also heard the palace maids and eunuchs ridicule, saying that the beautiful girl's name was the same as herself, and she was also called Hongzhao.

Ye Hongzhao looked at the girl and continued to ask her, "What am I locked up here for?" What time is it now? What about Concubine Chen? ”

The girl's eyes widened, she retreated dozens of steps in a row, her teeth kept chattering, and she looked at Ye Hongzhao in horror: "Hongzhao, you won't be ghosted, how can you talk nonsense......"

I've heard that Yongxiang is haunted for a long time, but I didn't expect it to be true. Hong Zhao, why have you only been in for three days, and you have become so vicious.

Ye Hongzhao didn't give up, stepped forward and grabbed the girl's arm, and shouted, "Tell me quickly!" ”

"Hongzhao, don't scare me!" The girl was so frightened by Ye Hongzhao's sudden scolding that she screamed, even so, she still told her the answers Ye Hongzhao wanted one by one: "You were punished for pushing Zhang Yan into the water, it's early in the morning, Concubine Chen Niangniang died of illness yesterday!" ”
