Chapter 51: Then Look
"Auntie...... Girl. One of them suddenly said, "You...... You want us to follow...... What are we going to do together......"
"I don't need you to do anything." Bai Ling said without looking back.
The two mothers-in-law looked at each other again, with a flattering look in their eyes, "We...... We can't do anything, we can't help anything......"
"Then watch."
The two mothers-in-law looked at Bai Ling's back, and they really hated itchy. Where the hell did this little brute come out of nowhere! It's going to be a toss-up!
But after all, he has already left the door of Chengqian Palace, and there is a sinister follower behind him, and he has to endure his big temper first.
Cining Palace was soon in sight.
Before entering the palace gate, the two mothers-in-law already felt some plausible depression.
Unlike other places, there are often three or two palace people passing by on the road, and since they passed the Longzong Gate, there is no palace person on the road.
The two mothers-in-law said no more.
The cool breeze made their hearts cold, and they had to follow closely behind Bai Ling, almost sticking to Bai Ling's back, and they didn't dare to go far for half a step.
In this Cining Palace, everyone has that terrifying steel mask on their faces.
The palace people here seem to have been carefully selected. All of them look the same on the outside. As soon as the mask was covered, everyone had the same body shape, the same size, and the same clothes, and it was impossible to tell who was who for a while.
There was no talk between people, and no one looked up to salute when they saw Bai Ling and their group come in.
They treat each other as if they were air, and there was silence everywhere......
This place is so weird!
Bai Ling suddenly stopped, and the two mothers-in-law panicked for a moment and almost bumped into them.
"Two aunts are waiting for me right here." Bai Ling said.
"Huh?" The two mothers-in-law were stunned, they looked around at the masked man who was moving around, their feet were a little unsteady for a while, and they instinctively pulled Bai Ling's sleeve, "What are you going to do, girl?" ”
Bai Ling then pulled his sleeve back and glanced at the two mothers-in-law meaningfully.
"Don't ask what you shouldn't, understand."
The two mothers-in-law's hands froze there, and their faces turned white.
There was disgust clearly written in Bai Ling's eyes - both mothers-in-law had a chill in their hearts, in that case, why did she have to let them do things with her?
Or is it ...... Just because of that little quarrel in the morning, this girl bit back in return?
The two mothers-in-law only felt that their intestines were repentant, and they knew that this was the case, so why bother to fight for this! The old lady is far away outside the palace, even if they scold Bai Ling worthless in front of her, the old lady can't listen to it......
What a loss.
"Fourteen," Bai Ling said softly, "take them down and lock them up first, and I'll come out later, and then bring them over." ”
"Girl, girl...... It's not our fault in the morning," a woman knelt down, "I'm not going to make amends to the girl, ah, I'm not going to pay you any." ”
The other person also knelt down immediately, but he was speechless for fear and just kept kowtowing.
Bai Ling glanced at them, "That's not interesting, two aunts. ”
The two mothers-in-law didn't understand, so they both looked up.
Bai Ling continued, "I just came to Chengqian Palace, and I have never met with the two aunts before, so you know that I am a person who has a father but no mother, so it can be seen that although the two aunts are in the deep palace, they are very well-informed. ”
The two mothers-in-law nodded instinctively as they listened to the last sentence, and then shook their heads quickly.
Bai Ling smiled, "Aunts are so capable, it can be seen that in the future, when I am in the palace, I will have to rely on the two of them more, or do you think that I am soft-spoken and unwilling to contribute?" ”
Bai Ling's words were like a slap in the face to the two mothers-in-law, until this moment, they really tasted Bai Ling's power.
"Okay, if you delay it any longer, I'm afraid that the two of you won't be able to get out of the palace gate of Cining Palace today." Bai Ling said softly, "Go, there is good tea in Cining Palace, let the palace people here make a pot for the two of you." ”
The two mothers-in-law were like ashes, raised their eyes and saw Bai Ling walking into the dark and gray palace gate alone, then they got up, supported each other, and staggered a little to follow Wei Shishi, who was speechless, to the side hall.
Counting it in earnest, Bai Ling's stay with the Queen Mother was less than an hour.
But for these two mothers-in-law who have just arrived in Cining Palace, it is really like a year.
They sat in the porter at the left door, and there were two new teas on the table, and the tea fragrance was clear and long, and it was really good tea.
But the two mothers-in-law were in no mood to taste it at all.
Their eyes were nervously fixed on the outer door, just waiting for Bai Ling to come out and take them out of this ghost place.
After looking at it like this for a while, I really saw a little bit of the doorway.
Although the eunuchs here all look the same, they still have something different on their bodies - the collar.
The two little eunuchs who led the way were silver-gray, the same as the eunuchs who were working outside.
A few stood by and watched but didn't do it themselves, with black collars, like overseers.
In addition, there are two colors, one is light red and the other is dark red.
They just come and go separately, and they can't see the difference in identity.
Suddenly, a little eunuch with a light red collar came in with a copper kettle to change the water for the two mothers-in-law. The tall and thin woman had the courage to speak, "Little brother, what are you particular about this collar?" ”
The eunuch did not hear, but bowed his head and poured water.
"Hey, it's been a long time since our girl went in...... How long will it take for her to come out? ”
The eunuch remained silent.
At this time, the water was also poured, and he turned around to leave, when the tall and thin woman was in a hurry, and grabbed the little eunuch's arm with a "hey, wait".
"Uh-uh-uhh
The mother-in-law was startled, and immediately let go, and saw the little eunuch run out.
- How did that...... Is it a mute!?
How can a dumb man be an errand in the palace?
The tall and thin woman was wondering, and when she turned around, she saw the short and fat woman shrinking into her seat with a frightened expression.
"What's wrong with you, no bones, a dumb man scared you like this."
The pumpty and dumpty woman shook her head again and again, almost squeezing a few words out of between her teeth, "That...... The mask ......"
"What's wrong with the mask?"
"That mask wasn't put on...... Like ...... It's like ......" Humpty Dumpty finally bit out the last few words, "like a branded ......"
The two mothers-in-law looked at each other, and they couldn't help but shiver for a while, as if they had been whipped out of thin air.
“…… Do you see clearly? ”
"No...... I don't know. Humpty Dumpty was already frightened, "Anyway, it's all fire marks when I get closer......"
The two held hands with each other, and at noon in March, it was like falling into an ice cave.
This Cining Palace is really weird, everyone in the palace wears a mask and can't look at their faces, and if they catch a eunuch casually, they are dumb......
Wrong...... Since entering Cining Palace, they have felt that everywhere is quiet, there is no sound anywhere, no one reports, no one salutes, and no one greets......
A terrible thought flashed through the minds of the two mothers-in-law at the same time-
I'm afraid not...... All the people here have their tongues cut out!
