Chapter Twenty-Seven: The Cold Palace

In an instant, there was another fog in front of the barrier.

When the fog cleared, the six paintings in front of the barrier had disappeared.

Gao Yuncheng and Xiao Muyang looked at each other, as if what they had just seen was just a dream.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty." The shouts came from afar, through the ancient hall, and heard the sound, as if the man was outside the temple.

The two of them were really surprised, tacitly, this is Xiao Xizi's voice, he woke up, did he also come in? Thinking of this, the two looked at each other, not knowing why.

Hearing that there was movement, the phoenix transported spiritual power, and in a flash, four spirit beasts and Gao Yuncheng, Xiao Muyang arrived outside the palace gate.

This time it was the turn of the four spirit beasts to be surprised, they looked at each other, there was no one outside the temple gate, that is to say, this voice came from outside the spirit ring? But how could his voice penetrate the Ring?

The phoenix muttered to himself: How could his voice penetrate the Spirit Ring and reach here?

Gao Yuncheng was curious. "You mean, you can't hear anything outside?"

"That's not it, we naturally know what we want to hear, and we can hear it if we are fated, if we have to hear all the noise in the world, won't we be going to die?" The phoenix replied.

"Fate? Was it because he took the ring from the fire? Xiao Muyang asked.

"Quite possibly." Gao Yuncheng was thoughtful.

The four spirit beasts said in their hearts: It turned out that he was the one who helped them lift the seal.

"Your Majesty, strange. Your Majesty, where did they go? Kiko's voice came again.

"Yuncheng, let's go out first, seeing that he is in such a hurry to call us, nothing will happen, right?"

"Good. Let's go out first. Then he said helplessly: "How are we going to get out?" ”

The two of them looked at the four spirit beasts with their eyes asking for help.

Phoenix snapped: "As long as you two close your eyes and think about where you want to go." ”

The two closed their eyes and disappeared in an instant.

At this time, there was a white expanse in front of the ancient hall, it turned out that the miraculous effect of the spirit fruit had appeared, and the four spirit beasts had evolved into transparent, and only the voice came slowly.

In the Heart Cultivation Palace, Xiao Xizi has long been gone.

"Wait here, maybe he'll be back later." The figures of Gao Yuncheng and Xiao Muyang walked out from behind the screen with chic steps.

After hearing this, Xiao Muyang nodded quietly. "By the way, Yuncheng, what are your plans for Su Luoan and the funeral?"

Gao Yuncheng was not sure before, but now that he has the help of the four spirit beasts, he is still afraid that those courtiers will not succeed?

"Of course I am." The confidence that can't be hidden in the confident tone.

Xiao Muyang said with a smile: "Tomorrow is early, and there will be no arguments." But I don't think they dare say more. ”

The two smiled slyly, self-evident.

Under the window lattice, Xiao Xizi listened in horror and didn't dare to make any sound.

Then, he quietly moved his footsteps, slowly, slowly, and finally, moved through the Heart Cultivation Palace.

Xiao Xizi was very happy at the moment, looking at the palace people passing by, trying to calm down as much as possible, so as not to let people see anything.

Despite this, those palace people still looked at him strangely, but in fact, they were just smiling, trying to please Xiao Xizi, but Xiao Xizi was in a hurry and passed by him.

When he heard Xiao Shizi mention Su Gongzi and the martyrdom of the harem, his frightened heart was about to jump out, when it was Xiao Muyang, because of Su Gongzi, he was angry with Su Gongzi, and now that he thinks about it, he is also a villain's heart.

Xiao Xizi finally walked to the harem with the contradiction of anxiety and ecstasy all the way.

Bypassing the wall of the cold palace, a cool air came from the surroundings, and Xiao Xizi was also accustomed to it.

Walking into the main gate, it was as quiet as death, and even the palace people guarding the door were a little weird.

In the past, Xiao Xizi came here to visit Ning Shang Niangniang, those palace people who guarded the cold palace did not see a trace of benefit and never let go, but now it is good, the two of them saw that it was Xiao Xizi next to the emperor, and repeatedly flattered and invited him in.

The cold palace was full of gloom, and the concubines who should have been buried before they ascended the throne were driven here by the new emperor. According to Xiaoxizi, at the beginning, the new emperor was not kind-hearted, but because the imperial power was in hand, he had no time to take care of anything else. But now, the new emperor's various actions are also incomprehensible.

The concubines in the cold palace were as surprised as usual when they saw Xiao Xizi, and when Xiao Xizi thought about whether to tell them that the new emperor intended to release them, he hesitated.

If what the emperor and Xiao Shizi said is true, then it is not impossible for him to tell them. If tomorrow's pedantic ministers disagree with the new emperor's decision, it will be a bolt from the blue for them. Although it gave hope for one day, in the end, it still had to fall into despair.

Xiao Xizi walked with heavy steps, walked to the direction of the door of Concubine Ning Niangniang in the main courtyard, and saw those concubines and palace maids through the courtyard, lifeless faces, Xiao Xizi had a feeling of compassion in his heart, sadness spread in his heart, he was entangled, and he didn't know his way back tomorrow.

After a few steps, he finally swallowed what he was about to say, walked to the door of the room, and was about to knock on the door, when suddenly there was a sound of a chair falling to the ground in the room.

This sound alarmed the people in the courtyard, and everyone's stunned eyes turned to the door, which also made the scene inside particularly terrifying.

Outside the courtyard, a palace maid was carrying a pot of water, and when she heard the movement in the room, she was shocked, her frightened hands trembled, and the kettle also spilled on the ground, and she ran quickly.

Xiao Xizi didn't think twice, slammed into the door, and all the palace maids also followed behind to bang on the door, and as soon as they entered the door, everyone saw the scene of Concubine Ning hanging herself, as if she was in deep despair of this world, so she didn't have a trace of struggle, and quietly waited for death.

It is important to save people, and they are not afraid, they picked up Concubine Ning and rescued her, everyone also stepped forward to help, and those who came in were all palace maids, and those concubines standing in the courtyard were accustomed to seeing the hot and cold state of the palace, and they were expressionless and indifferent, they knew very well in their hearts that even if they were rescued today, they would not escape the catastrophe of martyrdom tomorrow.

Those concubines were immediately melancholy and confused, and felt compassion for Ning Niangniang's attempt to hang herself, as if the pure heart of the first person who entered the palace had been awakened.

The palace maid burst into tears and cried out in grief: "Sister Ning Shang, don't be like this, don't be like this." ”

The palace maid is Xiao Xizi's old acquaintance, surnamed Yan, and named Chan'er. Although she is a palace maid, she is as her name suggests, and she also has a delicate face and graceful posture. One year younger than Ning Shang, when the emperor asked her to choose a personal palace maid from fifty palace maids, she didn't take a fancy to it, it happened that Chan'er was framed, and when she was about to be punished, Ning Sheng saved her.

Ning Shang tried to squeeze out a wry smile and patted Chan'er's hands, as if to comfort her, but in the end, she didn't say a word, and looked away with a lonely look.

Everyone understands, what if not? Tomorrow, no one in the cold palace will be able to escape the catastrophe of martyrdom. Thinking of this, Chan'er burst into tears, and the palace maids present were infected by the atmosphere and sobbed one after another.
