The smell of ambergris was so thick that it soaked into the heavy robes, and the cold skin seemed to feel the silence of this hall, and it burned slightly.

Bao Jin knelt on the ground, lowered his head, and let his hair hang to cover the look in his eyes, but he looked gentle and helpless.

"Get up!"

The queen finally called her to get up, but Bao Jin did not look up, only heard the sound of the pages of the book turning on it.

After a while, the queen said: "You are with the emperor, is there anything wrong with this?" ”

Bao Jin thought for a moment and said, "The emperor hasn't eaten much these days, and the rest is fine." ”

"Hmmm......"

The queen didn't seem to mean this, she answered in a casual voice, and then asked an absolutely irrelevant question—

"When your father was here, did he talk about the affairs of the previous dynasty?"

Bao Jin didn't expect her to suddenly change the topic, and said a little vaguely: "My father deplores the destruction of the country and the ...... of the dynasty."

The queen was not angry and continued to ask, "What else?" ”

"He didn't tell me, he just sighed a lot."

After hearing this, the queen's face became more and more relaxed, she glanced at the woman below, saw that her clothes were a little embarrassed, and after asking the reason, she ordered someone to bring her a new palace dress, and a few words of comfort, so that people sent her back.

After Baojin left the palace, Lin'er stepped forward and said, "She came back with Xu Jieyu......"

"Concubine Yun Xian's niece? The girl looks okay, she is very steady and introverted, and she doesn't have the intention of competing for favor. ”

The queen thought of her cousin again, and felt bored for a while, and commanded: "If the aunt at home comes to cry, just stop her!" ”

At this time, someone outside the hall came to report, saying that Wang Meiren reluctantly got up and wanted to come to see Niangniang.

The queen's face was displeased, and she remembered that she had served for many years, and she was also loyal, so she announced her into the palace.

＊＊＊＊

Bao Jin returned to the residence, her whole body seemed to collapse, she sat on the bed, let Ji Xin change her clothes, as if she heard the sound of blood rushing in her ears, she clenched her hands, clenched the skin of her palms, and did not feel any pain.

"Miss, don't scare me!"

Ji Xin was so anxious in front of her eyes that the overlapping figures finally brought back a trace of clarity to her.

"You go out first...... I want to be quiet. ”

Bao Jin is like a gossamer.

Ji Xin was anxious and worried, but she had no choice but to push the door and retreat, leaving the silence of the room to Baojin.

Bao Jin buried his head deep in the cotton jacket, and his whole body trembled, like the spasms and choks of the beasts when they betrayed their relatives.

She wanted to cry, but she couldn't shed tears, and fire almost erupted from her eyes, but she finally fell into despair—

"Sister...... What do you want?!! ”

The heart-wrenching low drink came out of the quilt, and the hoarseness seemed to break the strings, which made people's hearts palpitate.

She didn't want to look, she didn't want to think about it, but her mind still couldn't help but go back to the night......

Withdrawing from the Mu Xuan Courtyard, which became the Shura Fire Field, the prince left a secret contact information, and hurried back to the post house, Baojin was still suspicious, she ignored Shen Hao's persuasion, took advantage of the fire to be extinguished, and returned to the courtyard to take a closer look.

From the later man in black, she couldn't find any clues, she glanced at the hilt of the sword, but saw that there were rare words on it, and when she looked closely, there was a notch number.

This is for the palace guards!

The thought popped through her mind.

In this delay, there were already frequent voices outside - the sky was about to dawn, and the official yamen also heard the wind, and the neighbors came to fight the fire together.

She didn't want to cause trouble, so she did as Shen Hao said, lifted an inconspicuous bluestone slab in the courtyard, and planned to return to the emerald building across the wall from the secret passage.

The secret passage was full of dust - no wonder the last time the prince was in a mess, Baojin walked down in a hurry, but more than ten zhang, he saw the exit.

There was a clearing in front of the exit, and it was not in a row, and there were some rocks piled up messily, and it was also covered with spider silk dust.

When Baojin saw these rocks, somehow, he touched the hidden thoughts in his heart, and a wave of sadness came from his heart-

When she was young, her sister Jin Yuan liked to play with rocks the most, she put those strange-shaped stones into various formations on the war book, but it also seemed to be the same, and once even trapped Xiao Baojin in two of them, until she cried for a long time, she was found.

Since then, Jin Yuan has been greatly restrained, even if he practices the formation, he is looking for a secluded place, and as a result, he also has a headache when he sees his sister crying.

When Bao Jin thought of this, he was sweet and sad, and in this dim secret passage, he almost shed tears.

She trembled her hands lightly, and laid out the stones one by one according to the appearance in her memory, remembering her sister's words and deeds, and her heart was sad.

After fiddling properly, she turned to leave, but she heard a soft rolling sound behind her, and suddenly looked back, only to see that at the other end of the cave wall, two black and dark portals were exposed.

In the secret passage, there is actually a secret passage?!
