On this day and night is the Chinese New Year's Eve feast.

The Yuxi Palace is prosperous as usual, with the lights on and the singing and dancing.

As soon as Chang Anfu entered the hall, he saw the emperor sitting on top of the main hall, and the person sitting beside him was Song Yanji as expected. At this moment, Chu Luo's gaze met with Chang'an, but for a moment, he moved his gaze elsewhere. Chang'an's eyes sank, and a smile as cool as rain suddenly appeared on his face.

During the banquet, Chang'an sat at the bottom of the queen, coldly looking at the scene of this group of warblers singing and dancing, and suddenly, she caught a glimpse of a beam of eyes looking at her, she turned her head and saw Chu Ying.

Chang'an glanced up at Song Yanji, who was sitting on the upper side, she was dressed in gorgeous clothes, bright and elegant. She looked around again, and when she saw that Zhong Yuxiu was not at the banquet, she suddenly felt a little bit of kinship in her heart. This was the first feast in four years, she Shen Changan did not sit by Chu Luo's side, and it was the only time, everyone's disdainful and jealous eyes did not come to her, and vaguely, she actually felt a little calm and at ease.

Finally unable to sit still, Chang'an got up to say goodbye to the queen and withdrew from the banquet. The moment she walked out of the palace gate, she suddenly saw the eyes of the Queen Mother, and suddenly, she remembered what the Queen Mother said to her yesterday.

"If you have time, let's go to the Cold Magpie Palace."

Leng Magpie Palace? What's that?

Chang An pressed the doubts in his heart, turned his head to Wanxiang and said, "Have you heard of Leng Que Palace?" ”

Wanxiang Muran shook her head, "The slave doesn't know. ”

Chang An sighed softly. She looked up at the sky, and a large field of fireworks burst out above her head, and she felt a sense of loneliness and desolation, and I don't know what thought suddenly came to her, and said, "Go there and see." ”

Chang'an saw a sedan chair parked at the door of the Yuxi Palace, two little eunuchs were leaning on the sedan chair to nap, Chang'an stepped forward, the two were suddenly awakened by the sound of footsteps, saw Chang'an, and knelt down and said, "Gui...... Concubine Niangniang Wan'an. ”

Chang'an bowed slightly, and said indifferently, "Go to Lengque Palace." ”

As soon as they heard the words "Leng Que Palace", the eyes of the two little eunuchs widened, and they said in disbelief, "Niang Niang is just ...... Where are you going......"

"Leng Magpie Palace." Wan Xiang stood beside Chang'an and repeated again, and said impatiently, "What's wrong with you?" ”

"...... ......The two little eunuchs looked at each other, but they didn't dare to make a sound, Chang'an frowned and looked at them, which aggravated his doubts a little.

"Mother." One of the little eunuchs knelt in front of him and said with a worried brow, "On this Chinese New Year's Eve night, I'm afraid it's not very lucky to go to a place like Leng Que Palace......

Speaking of this, Chang'an's heart was also gloomy. She has fallen out of favor now, what are she afraid of auspicious and unlucky? So he said, "Just go." ”

On the way to Leng Que Palace, Chang'an was also full of doubts, she vaguely felt that the Queen Mother deliberately designed this, but she really couldn't understand what this meant.

After walking for about a quarter of an hour, the sedan chair took Chang'an and Wanxiang and turned into a very quiet alley. Seeing this, Chang'an suddenly felt a chill rushing up.

When he walked to the front, he was guarded by guards, and when he saw that it was the sedan chair of the Chonghua Palace, he was immediately released.

As soon as Chang'an got off the sedan chair, he heard a terrible cry not far away, one more sharp than the other.

The two little eunuchs next to him were so frightened that they hurriedly said, "Don't go, Niangniang, I heard that ...... I heard that this palace is haunted......"

"Nonsense." Chang An immediately turned his head and glanced at the two of them, "There are no ghosts and gods in this world, it's just to scare yourself." ”

Although she said this, Chang'an was still a little afraid in her heart, but she really wanted to know why the Queen Mother insisted on calling her here, thinking of this, Chang'an had to walk forward boldly. She had just walked a few steps before she noticed that the two little eunuchs behind her had not followed, so she sighed and said, "Since you are afraid, just wait there." With that, she turned to Wanxiang and asked, "Do you want to go with you?" ”

Although Wanxiang was afraid, she still forced a smile and said, "The slave maid is still with the mother." ”

In the end, it is the ignorant who is fearless, Chang'an walked in front and knocked on the door of Leng Que Palace first. It seemed to be quiet all of a sudden, and the crying was silent, and for a moment it was terrifyingly quiet.

There is such a place in this palace, such a place that is incompatible with the prosperity of the Great Chu Palace.

Thinking so, Chang An resolutely pushed open the door and walked in. There was silence all around, not even a single candle was lit, the corners of the walls were densely covered with cobwebs, and as soon as Chang'an entered the door, the smell of rot and mildew immediately filled the entire nasal cavity. Chang'an Lian moved lightly, carefully avoiding the filth and mildew all over the ground, and forcibly endured nausea and walked into the inner side of the main hall.

"Who is it?!" A woman's voice suddenly sounded in the hall, sharp and piercing.

"It's the emperor's Shen Guifei, who are you?" Wan Xiang boldly responded for Chang'an.

The woman in the room laughed dryly, the voice was cold and terrifying, and Chang An involuntarily tightened her shoulders.

"It was the Queen Mother who asked me to come and see you." He spoke quietly.

"The Queen Mother?" The woman raised her voice, and suddenly cried out bitterly, "Queen Mother! Dowager! It's the poisonous woman! ”

As she spoke, she suddenly rushed out of the hall, saying that it was too late, and she strode in front of Shen Changan and dragged her fiercely, "You were sent by that poisonous woman, right?" You're all trying to kill me! They all want to kill me—"

Her strength was so great that she couldn't move Shen Chang'an, Chang'an's face suddenly turned white, and she only heard Wanxiang crying loudly, "You let go of our master!" Before she could finish speaking, the woman raised her hand and pushed her to the ground.

Chang An just wanted to go to see Wanxiang, but saw a pair of inch-long nails immediately stretched out to her face, and in an instant they tightly choked her throat, Chang'an's face turned red, and he tried hard to pull her hand away, but it was in vain. At this moment, a moon-white figure suddenly flashed in front of him, Chang'an felt that he was being hugged in his arms, and when he opened his eyes again, he saw that the woman who wanted to hurt her had fallen to the ground, wailing and screaming.

Chang'an raised his head and saw Chu Ying. Her heart trembled, and in her faint sense, there was a slight disappointment. It's not Chu Luo, it's not Chu Luo.

At this moment, she seemed to feel that she was being embraced by Chu Ying, and immediately stood up in surprise and said, "Thank you, Lord Wang." ”

Wanxiang also stood up from the ground, held Chang'an tightly, and bowed her head to Chu Ying, "Thank you, Lord Wang." ”

Chu Ying wanted to say something again, but his outstretched hand suddenly froze in mid-air, he suddenly withdrew it, and asked with concern, "Are you okay?" ”

He didn't call her "Niangniang", he just did ordinary care. Chang'an's heart suddenly moved, and he bowed his head and said, "I'm fine." After finishing speaking, she raised her head and looked at Chu Ying fixedly, "Why is the prince here?" ”

Chu Ying's eyebrows sank, and a deep worry appeared in his eyes, "This king saw that you left the table halfway, so he followed." ”

Wan Xiang's face immediately changed when she heard this, and she turned around and flashed behind Chang'an.

Chang'an was about to speak, but the woman who was sitting on the ground had already stood up, and then Chang'an saw her appearance clearly, her face was covered with shocking bloodstains, her whole face was gloomy and terrifying, she was wearing a coarse rag, and she was still smiling stupidly. Her laughter was sensational, and Chang'an involuntarily leaned towards Chu Ying's side.

"It's all you! It's all you! The woman suddenly rushed in front of Chu Ying, pointed her finger at him and said, "You are the son of that poisonous woman, right?" She died of two sons, and one of them came to inherit the throne! After the palace heard that her fourth prince died, it was really happy, this is all retribution, it is all retribution-" As she spoke, she was about to come up and tear Chu Ying's clothes, Chu Ying was furious, stretched out his hand and pushed her, and shouted loudly, "Someone!" ”

The two guards who came in at the door of the square just now saw Chu Ying and bowed their hands and said, "Nine Princes." ”

"Catch this crazy woman back, save her from coming out and hurting people again!"

The two guards immediately answered, dragging the woman from the ground and into the temple. The ground was illuminated by a candle, and there were still stains of blood visible, Chang'an turned his face and couldn't bear to look at it again, Chu Ying protected her with one hand, and comforted her in a low voice, "It's okay." ”

Seeing this, Evening Fragrance immediately quietly retreated.

Chang'an raised his eyes, looked at Chu Ying, and thinking about what he had just said, Mu Ran asked, "You have been following me here?" ”

Chu Ying nodded, undeniable.

Chang'an frowned slightly, and was about to say more, but Chu Ying rushed in front of her and asked, "Who asked you to come here?" ”

Chang An looked at him with a faint look of anger, and said with slight doubts, "It's the Queen Mother." ”

"The Queen Mother asked you to come here, didn't she want this crazy man to hurt you?" Chu Ying's face gradually turned cold, and there was fire burning in his eyes.

Chang'an was naturally startled, just now the woman kept calling the Queen Mother a "poisonous woman", obviously she had a deep hatred with the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother knew this, but she still let her come, what did she mean? The woman's sharp nails were close to Chang'an's face, and if Chu Ying was one step late, the consequences would be really unimaginable. Thinking of this, she had to be afraid.

While thinking about it, the two of them heard footsteps approaching, Chang'an looked back and saw a woman in plain clothes carrying a cage walking towards this side, she hadn't recognized who this person was, but Chu Ying's voice had already sounded above her head, "Concubine Shu?" ”

The woman who was called "Concubine Shu" heard Chu Ying's voice and quickly knelt down, "Nine Princes." Instead, she caught a glimpse of Chang'an beside Chu Ying, and she also bowed her head and said, "Guifei Niangniang." ”

Chang'an was not surprised.

She knows herself, but why is this Concubine Shu, she has never heard anyone mention it.

Chu Ying could see the confusion on her face, and whispered in her ear, "This is the first emperor's concubine Shu." ”

Chang'an frowned when he heard this, "How can there be a concubine in the palace?" ”

Chu Ying groaned slightly, "Now in the palace, in addition to the queen mother, there are only two concubines, one is Concubine Shu, and the other is Concubine Li who you just met. ”

Concubine Li?!

Chang'an was shocked. Today's queen is surnamed Li, so is the queen mother, and even this concubine is ......
