Chapter Forty-Eight: Shuyang Palace
The queen took a few palace people to Shuyang Palace with Lu He and Mama Jiang.
After the moon sacrifice, the moon hid in the clouds again, and never poked its head out again. The night was dark, and from time to time there were bursts of bleak autumn winds blowing, which made this huge palace even more bleak and lonely.
Green Lotus was carrying the lamp in front, her hands were a little faintly trembling, she had seen a ghost before, and now she was going to Shuyang Palace again, how did she not panic.
I don't know how long it took, the dark clouds in the sky became denser and denser, and I could faintly hear the sound of thunder in the distance. The wind swept in, blowing the doors and windows of Shuyang Palace rattling, which was particularly harsh in the silent night.
The queen took a big stride into the courtyard of Shuyang Palace, and saw that the tables, chairs and benches were wiped clean, as if there were still people living here.
With a gust of wind blowing, the queen and her party were locked in Shuyang Palace, and Lu He was immediately scared and screamed, and Mama Jiang was also startled. But only the queen did not show a trace of panic, but looked around coldly with a grim look on her face.
The wind stopped, and Shuyang Palace became lonely and deserted again, because it was already a little late after the end of the moon sacrifice, and it was already midnight, the time when the yin qi was at its peak, just standing in this Shuyang Palace felt a burst of cold. Suddenly, everyone seemed to hear a woman's soft singing voice around them, although the song was soft, but mixed with a hint of ethereal nothingness.
Green Lotus's face suddenly turned pale, and she said to the queen in a trembling voice, "Niangniang..... There are really ghosts in this Shuyang Palace......"
The queen glanced at the green lotus, and then scolded angrily at the air: "Murong Shu, you couldn't fight this palace when you were alive, and now that you have become a ghost, what can you use to fight this palace?" β
The door opened suddenly, and a gust of night wind poured into the room, and the green lotus who was in a cold sweat was blowing goosebumps all over his body.
"Meow-" A black cat with green eyes pounced towards the queen, Jiang Mama was afraid that the black cat would scratch the queen, so she jumped forward, and a bloody mark was instantly scratched on her face.
The queen looked at the black cat, and a familiar feeling welled up in her heart, and she made eye contact with the black cat for a moment, and the black cat jumped out of the windowsill and hid into the darkness, lurking somewhere.
"Murong Shu, you are also capable of doing this? I can't fight as a human being, and I died at the hands of this palace, do you think you can be more powerful than this palace if you become a ghost? This palace wants you to know who you can't offend in eternity! β
After the queen finished speaking, the song stopped abruptly, and the green lotus was already scared, and the queen looked at the green lotus like this, snorted coldly and said coldly: "But someone is just pretending to be a ghost, let's go." β
The door was opened, but the queen stopped behind the door, she suddenly turned around and said coldly to a dark place: "From now on, no one is allowed to clean Shuyang Palace, if any palace person secretly comes to clean Shuyang Palace, it is forbidden to find it, and the rod will be killedββ"
The tail note dragged on for a long time, resounding in the empty Shuyang Palace.
After speaking, the queen came out of Shuyang Palace without looking back, and there was indeed a person sitting on the beam, but he looked at the direction of the queen's departure with cold eyes, and then left Shuyang Palace.
After leaving Shuyang Palace, the queen and her entourage walked in the direction of Qin Tianjian, looking at the queen's posture, I am afraid that she is going to be held accountable for today's events.
About half an hour later, the queen's sedan chair arrived in front of the door of Qin Tianjian, and Mama Jiang was scratched by an inexplicable cat, and her heart was also very unhappy, so she shouted inside: "The queen has arrived, and you don't come to bow down quickly!" β
Mama Jiang's voice was not loud, but at least everyone inside should be able to hear it, but strangely no one came to open the door.
Mama Jiang was a little impatient, but because the queen shouted at Qin Tianjian several times again. But no matter how Mama Jiang shouted, no one came out to greet her.
The queen felt strange, and the green lotus was also a little confused, obviously when she came to Qin Tianjian before, she was still all people, why didn't she see anyone now?
"Niangniang, when the slave maid came to find Lord Nangong before, there were still many people in the Qin Heavenly Prison, how could they ..... at this time" Lu He said with a white face.
The queen also frowned, not understanding what trick this Nangong Meng was playing, so she opened her mouth and ordered: "Come on, knock open the door of Qin Tianjian for me!" β
After the palace man got the order, he slammed into the door, but before he could hit the door, he plunged into the house. The door opened without warning, but unexpectedly, there were several people in light gray robes lying inside, and if you looked closely, you could find that these people who fell to the ground were all officials of Qin Tianjian, and there were five officials who did not see Nangong Meng.
The queen was also stunned, and she didn't know what was going on, but then she realized that someone was probably designing herself, so she immediately rushed to the Qingxin Palace, wanting to frame this for herself, which was too naΓ―ve.
The queen hurried to the outside of the Qingxin Palace, only to see that the hall was brightly lit, and the queen was a little unhappy in her heart.
So the queen was even more annoyed, and immediately wanted to rush in regardless of etiquette.
Andrew blocked the menacing queen at the door, and the queen stared at him arrogantly at the door.
"Father-in-law An, what does it mean to block the phoenix driving of the palace this time?" Seeing that Andrew showed no signs of loosening, the queen said coldly.
An Delu saw the queen questioning himself aggressively, but he was not timid, but said to the queen respectfully: "It's late at night, the emperor is resting, if the queen has something to do, please leave tomorrow early." β
The queen snorted coldly and said: "The lights in this palace are bright, and you told the palace that the emperor has rested?" Don't you dare to deceive this palace, do you really think that this palace is so easy to fool? β
Seeing the queen say this, An Delu also knelt down: "The queen, please go back, the emperor said that he would not see anyone." β
The queen ignored An Delu's obstruction, and reprimanded An Delu: "This palace doesn't know which fox is in the palace, but this palace must go in to see the emperor!" β
After saying that, the queen stepped over to An Delu's side, no longer looked at Andelu, and walked towards the Qingxin Palace.
The guard standing outside the door saw that the queen was about to break in, so he blocked the red tassel gun in his hand and blocked the queen who wanted to break in.
"Presumptuous, don't you know who Hongu is? Dare to stop Hongu? "The queen was also angry when she was repeatedly blocked, even if she was to be blamed by the emperor tonight, she must go in to meet the emperor.
"The queen mother is offended, the emperor has an order, and you have to obey." The two guards dressed as forbidden soldiers said expressionlessly.
"Get out of the way, the palace wants to see the emperor!" The queen rebuked coldly.
"Whoever is out is presumptuous, doesn't he say that nothing is allowed to disturb me tonight?" A majestic voice came from inside the temple.
