Hua Qingrao and the others hurried to the cold palace. At this time, the cold palace was even more bleak under the cover of the night, and the crows on the branches cried from time to time with the cries of the resentful woman.

They all slowed their pace, and the sound of the soles of their shoes stepping on the leaves on the ground was particularly harsh in the silence of the night.

Mao Ziyi stepped forward to open the door of the cold palace for them, and with a "creak", dust also fell from the door, as if no one had been here for many years.

The structure of this cold palace is no different from the palace where they live, but it is a little bleaker.

Hua Qingrao stepped forward slowly, her eyes fixed on the closed door in front of her. Just as she was about to raise her hand to open it, a figure suddenly appeared from the corner of the side and rushed towards her.

She was startled, and it was too late to dodge, and she was knocked to the ground by the figure.

The figure also fell to the ground, she turned her head and saw that Hua Qingrao had fallen to the ground, as if she was still angry in her heart, and she got up and had to go forward to fight again.

As soon as Mao Ziyi entered the cold palace, she cautiously followed behind Hui Xiuyuan, now that she is pregnant, she shouldn't have come to this kind of place, what if something happens again.

When he reacted and wanted to step forward to help Hua Qingrao, the figure had already pounced quickly.

"Get out of the way!" Hui Xiuyuan exclaimed.

Hua Qingrao's brain was buzzing, and when she heard this exclamation, as soon as she raised her head, she saw a man with a disheveled hair rushing towards her. If you want to dodge at this time, you can't dodge at all.

At this moment, a figure fell from the sky, and a flying kick kicked the person more than a meter away. "Niangniang, the little one is late, please punish it."

Hua Qingrao looked at the person who came is Si Luo, her body seemed to be unloaded in an instant, she lay on the ground and gasped and said, "It's okay, help the basic position." ”

Hui Xiuyuan was relieved to see that Hua Qingrao was helped up safely by Si Luo. She looked up at the man again, and saw her hair curled up on the ground as if she were afraid, and it was vaguely clear from the clothes she was wearing that it was a woman.

Hua Qingrao also noticed her and stepped forward slowly. Who knew that the woman actually stepped back in a panic, and shouted: "Don't kill me!" Don't kill me! ”

Hua Qingrao looked in the direction of her gaze, and Si Luo stood there expressionlessly. Her heart tightened, and she said in a deep voice: "I'm afraid that Concubine Zhang Xian's people have already come here." ”

"What?" Hui Xiuyuan turned her head and walked briskly towards the closed door of the hall, and she pushed it with her hand. As the door of the temple opened, a woman hanging in the air slowly appeared in front of her eyes.

As if sensing her arrival, the rope turned around and exposed the woman's face.

It was indeed Yi Xiuyi's face, I am afraid that she was wronged by her death, and she stared at Hui Xiuyuan with a pair of frightened eyes.

"Ahh Hui Xiuyuan was so frightened by this sight that she exclaimed, turned around and was about to run out. Unexpectedly, due to panic, she tripped over her own foot, and the whole person threw herself to the ground. She subconsciously covered her stomach with her hands, and her mind was full of what to do with children.

Instead of feeling the expected pain and coldness of the ground, she fell into a warm embrace.

A clear voice sounded in her ears: "Are you okay?" There was obvious concern in his voice.

Hui Xiuyuan raised her head and met Mao Ziyi's anxious eyes, she paused for a moment and said slowly: "I'm fine." ”

"That's good." Mao Ziyi breathed a sigh of relief, slowly helped her up, and only after she stood firm did he let go of his hand holding her.

Hui Xiuyuan turned to Hua Qingrao and said, "She's dead." The voice was always cold, but with a distinctly audible tremor.

Hua Qingrao glanced around, "Let's go back first." ”

Hui Xiuyuan nodded in agreement, she couldn't stay in this kind of place for a second. Just thinking about Yi Xiuyi's face, she had goosebumps all over her body.

As soon as they left, Lai Shun at the corner of the cold palace slowly walked out. He stared at Hua Qingrao's backs gloomily, then looked at the cold palace shrouded in the night, and said in a deep voice: "Go!" Go back and report to my mother! ”

As soon as Hui Xiuyuan returned to the Linhua Palace, she picked up the tea on the table and poured it down. Under the light of the candle flame, the cold sweat on her forehead was visible.

Xue Kite glanced at Hui Xiuyuan, stepped forward with a solemn face and asked Hua Qingrao: "Niangniang, Yi Xiuyi is dead?" ”

Hua Qingrao didn't speak, just nodded.

There was silence in the hall for a long time before she slowly spoke: "Yi Xiuyi is dead, I'm afraid those guards have also been killed." ”

Hui Xiuyuan was startled, and subconsciously turned her head to look at Mao Ziyi, and it happened that he was also looking at her, and the eyes of the two collided unexpectedly. She quietly looked away and said in a clear voice, "That Mao guard is the last one to live." ”

"It should be." Hua Qingrao replied.

Mao Ziyi's face suddenly became solemn, if he hadn't been called by Hui Xiuyuan tonight, he would have become one of the souls under the knife. He spoke: "Why don't you report this to everyone quickly?" Could it be that Concubine Zhang Xian is allowed to cover the sky with one hand in this palace? ”

Hui Xiuyuan sighed lightly and slowly explained: "Now that Yi Xiuyi is dead, the group of guards who know the truth have also been wiped out. The three of us have no evidence, and Concubine Zhang Xian is pregnant, so this matter can't set off any big waves. ”

Mao Ziyi lowered his head and thought: "Then we can only be alive as fish to be slaughtered on her chopping board." ”

"Whether she can kill it or not, she doesn't count what she said now." Hua Qingrao sneered

She pondered for a while, then looked up and said to Hui Xiuyuan: "Niangniang, you have a dragon fetus in your body, and with the blessing of the Queen Mother, she doesn't dare to touch you." Although I don't have anything to rely on, she still needs some effort to harm me with her tricks. Now she can only move the Mao guards, so it is imperative to keep the Mao guards first, and then think about it in the long run. ”

Hui Xiuyuan frowned slightly, "But after all, he is a guard, not an internal servant." No matter how long you and I are, it will be difficult to keep everything. ”

Mao Ziyi lowered his head and thought carefully, this guard and the concubine could not contact each other in the palace, if they interfered in everything to maintain, I am afraid that it would only make Concubine Zhang Xian grab a bigger handle. This would only put her in danger.

Thinking of this, he arched his hand and said: "Humble duty is just a cheap life, and I can't afford two mothers to take risks for lowly duties, so don't interfere in this matter anymore." ”

Hua Qingrao looked at the worry in his eyes, and deliberately joked: "You care so much about our safety, but you are curious, are you more worried about the accident in your position, or are you more worried about the accident of your mother?" ”

Mao Ziyi's face suddenly turned crimson, and he bowed his head and said nothing.

Hui Xiuyuan glared at Hua Qingrao angrily, and said coldly: "It's all this time, you are still talking nonsense here!" ”

Hua Qingrao was originally playful because of Mao Ziyi's reaction, but because of Hui Xiuyuan's glance, she immediately returned to her proper appearance. "I don't have the power to keep him, but I do."

"I have?" Hui Xiuyuan said suspiciously.

Hua Qingrao glanced at her still flat lower abdomen meaningfully, "Niangniang only needs to go to the Empress Dowager's palace tonight and say, you can't sleep when you hear a strange sound in the Linhua Palace every night, and I want to ask the Empress Dowager to send a few guards to patrol your palace." With the Queen Mother's attitude towards you, this matter will definitely be allowed to you. ”

"After that, you only need to do a little bit from it, and the Mao guards will be transferred to your palace. At that time, even if Concubine Zhang Xian wants to start, she will have to worry about Niangniang, you are not. ”
