Under the guidance of the palace maid, Ling Qingrui gradually drifted away, but for some reason Ling Qingrui suddenly felt a little uneasy in her heart, as if something was wrong, but she couldn't think of why, she raised her eyes and looked around, the buildings in the palace were majestic and solemn, and every flower and grass around her seemed to contain a different kind of beauty, and there seemed to be nothing wrong with it.

It's just that......

Although Ling Qingrui came to the palace for the first time, the seventh princess was deeply favored by the emperor and the queen, and the princess was still young, and the leisurely palace where she lived was bound to not be too far from the queen's Yongning Palace, not to mention that the Yongning Palace was located in the center, and it did not deviate much, but at this time, the direction that the palace maid ordered her to go to was not the same, and the surrounding scenery gave Ling Qingrui a strange sense of desolation, thinking of this, Ling Qingrui's footsteps hesitated slightly.

It was just such a slight pause, and the palace maid who was leading the way in front seemed to be aware of it, glanced back at Ling Qingrui and said, "County Lord An Jin is tired of walking?" There is a gazebo not far in front of it, where the county lord can rest and then walk. ”

Seeing that this palace maid was so keen, Ling Qingrui's eyes narrowed slightly, and she said, "Does the princess still need to go to see the emperor and the queen's mother, is it too abrupt for me to go at this time?" I'd better wait and see the princess again. ”

Saying that, Ling Qingrui was about to go back, the palace maid's eyes flashed slightly, she took a few steps forward but stopped directly in front of Ling Qingrui, and persuaded: "How come, the princess has already visited the emperor and the queen's mother, and at this time she is anxious to wait in the Leisurely Palace, if the county lord doesn't go, the princess will lose her temper, the county lord should go with the slave and maid." ”

"What, you have to force this county lord?" The momentum around Ling Qingrui's body also instantly became fierce.

The palace maid said: "The slave maid doesn't dare, it's just that the princess has always taken a fancy to the county lord, and at this time she just wants to ask the county lord to accompany her, and the county lord is so pushy, doesn't it make the princess feel cold?" If the emperor and the queen mother find out, I am afraid they will also be displeased. ”

Ling Qingrui glanced at the palace maid who seemed to be respectful, but there was a threat in her words, and there was a faint dangerous aura on her body, so she became even more vigilant.

Eyes swept around, Ling Qingrui found that there was no palace person around at this time, and there was no trace of the palace guards, Ling Qingrui took a step to the side slightly, and her fingers moved lightly to pinch the silver needle hidden in her sleeve between her fingers.

At this moment, as if sensing Ling Qingrui's subtle movements, the palace maid suddenly got up and smiled at Ling Qingrui, stretched out her hand and pointed to the side and said, "County lord, look, the princess can't wait to find it." ”

Before the words fell, the palace maid's figure suddenly jumped up, and her fingers went straight to the acupoints on Ling Qingrui's body, it seemed that she was planning to stun her when Ling Qingrui turned around, but the palace maid didn't expect that Ling Qingrui was not fooled, and at the same time as her body was uplifting, Ling Qingrui also quickly stepped back, and her fingers took advantage of the situation to rise up.

The palace maid who didn't expect Ling Qingrui to have this skill was a little surprised, but she didn't care and continued to grab Ling Qingrui, but as soon as her palm touched Ling Qingrui's fingers, she retracted as if she had been struck by lightning, but it was too late, her palm was pricked by the silver needle hidden between Ling Qingrui's fingers, and there were already a few blood beads, and the look in the palace maid's eyes was even stronger.

Ling Qingrui was not greedy for merit when she succeeded in one blow, and took advantage of the moment when the palace maid retracted her hand, she turned around and ran back, but the palace maid who was obviously armed with martial arts had already caught up with her in a few steps, Ling Qingrui secretly gritted her teeth, the lancet was not there, and she was even more at a disadvantage, it seemed that she could only ......

Just when Ling Qingrui had just made the decision to use the few medicines she had brought with her today to put the palace maid down, the palace maid suddenly stopped, then turned around and burrowed into the bushes on the side, and soon disappeared!

Seeing this, Ling Qingrui was immediately taken aback, and then wanted to chase after the trace of the palace maid, she was not familiar with the palace for the first time, so she had to follow the path in her memory and hurriedly walked back.

Although Ling Qingrui didn't know what this place was, seeing that the palace maid brought her here and suddenly disappeared, it should have been an intention to delay time, and she must not stay here for a long time.

In her heart, Ling Qingrui secretly thought, although she took advantage of the fact that Old Madam Shen and the others were flustered when they heard about the destruction of the imperial gift at first glance, she beat the Shen family fiercely, and offended the old lady Shen and the others to death, but Ling Qingrui didn't think that Old Madam Shen and the Shen family would have so much energy to be able to calculate her in the palace.

The palace maid just now must not be the person next to the seventh princess, so who wants to calculate against her and can instruct the palace maid, that person's identity must not be simple!

Ling Qingrui, who was windy at her feet, turned a corner of the Zhu Gate, the corner of her skirt was scraped by something, Ling Qingrui lifted the corner of her skirt and swept her eyes over, and saw that it was the pothos next to the door, but in the next moment, her eyes trembled slightly, before she came just now, she didn't see the words next to the Zhu Door, the words under the pothos, and at this time she was tripped by the corner of her skirt, but she clearly saw the words next to the door.

There is exactly a couplet engraved, and what is revealed at this time is the upper couplet of the couplet, "Soft intestines turn and fall snow", if Ling Qingrui is not wrong, the other side should be carved with "Xuan Ang is like breaking Qiongchen".

Stretching out her hand slightly, Ling Qingrui gently pushed aside the pothos over there, and sure enough, when she saw this couplet, Ling Qingrui's heart jumped again, and she hurriedly restored those pothos to their original state, and when she turned around, Ling Qingrui rushed out in a hurry.

Although Ling Qingrui had never been to this place, she already knew what this place was at this time.

This is the palace where Jing Mofeng's deceased mother Concubine Rou lived before her death - Dry Rain Palace!

Before Concubine Rou was alive, the plaque of the Qianyu Palace personally mentioned by the emperor today, the couplet was also from the mouth of the emperor, the Rou of the upper couplet alluded to Concubine Rou, and the word Xuan of the lower couplet was the last word in the name of the emperor today.

It can be seen how much the emperor loves Concubine Rou, but since Concubine Rou died unexpectedly, the emperor changed his attitude overnight, and this Qianyu Palace was ordered by the emperor to become a forbidden place in the palace, and no one is allowed to set foot here, including Concubine Rou's own prince Jing Mofeng.

It is reported that Jing Mofeng missed his mother when he was young, and secretly came to this dry rain palace, and after the emperor learned about it, he severely beat Jing Mofeng, and then Jing Mofeng was confined for half a year, and anyone else who set foot here is a capital crime!

Just about to run out of the palace gate of this dry rain palace, Ling Qingrui's footsteps stopped in a hurry, and she hid behind the tree next to the door as soon as her figure turned, she keenly heard the footsteps outside the palace gate, and from the footsteps she could hear more than one person walking over, if she ran out like this at this time, wouldn't she be caught by someone, and then she would inevitably be charged with trespassing on the forbidden land.

Ling Qingrui originally wanted to hide for a while and wait for those people outside to leave before coming out, but she didn't want to hear someone outside shouting: "Today's Halloween Day, there are many young ladies in the palace who are not familiar with the situation of the palace, and it is inevitable that someone will mistakenly enter the place where they should not enter. ”

With the sound of a group of people receiving orders, Ling Qingrui clearly heard those people scattering one after another, and peeked out slightly, and saw that there were four guards standing outside the gate of this palace alone, and this situation made Ling Qingrui know without thinking about it, it must be all the entrances and exits of this Dry Rain Palace, guarded by guards.

The timing of these guards was so coincidental, the queen's order was passed on so early and not too late, thinking of the palace maid's confrontation with her just now to delay time, Ling Qingrui had to suspect in an instant that this was a conspiracy planned by the queen against her, but she couldn't figure it out, how she offended the queen, and let the queen take such a big time to deal with her, she had never seen the queen, and the Shen family had no relationship with the queen......

There were many thoughts in an instant, but Ling Qingrui knew that the top priority at this time should be to get out of the Dry Rain Palace, and now there was still a period of time before the palace banquet began, but if she didn't show up for a long time, I was afraid that it would cause unnecessary trouble, and once she was delayed, the palace banquet would inevitably not be able to participate, and it would bring trouble to the Liu Mansion.

Because the four guards were standing outside the door with their backs to Ling Qingrui, they were also very close to her, Ling Qingrui didn't dare to make any big moves at all, just looked around, trying to find a place to leave, but found that the courtyard wall was too high, and it was not something she could easily climb over, and sweat gradually seeped out of her palms.

After thinking about it for a while, Ling Qingrui moved back lightly, wanting to get a little farther away from these guards before thinking of a way, but as soon as her feet were raised, she suddenly felt a sharp pain coming, her calf seemed to have been hit by something, and her body could no longer be stable and threw herself to the ground, and what was even more unfortunate was that she fell straight from behind the tree where she was hiding to the middle of the road!

Ling Qingrui's eyes narrowed slightly, between the lightning and flint, her hands quickly stretched out and took a step forward to support the ground, although there was a burst of pain in the palm, but taking this opportunity to relax, Ling Qingrui resolved the sound that this fall might make.

Ling Qingrui, who was holding her breath, quickly glanced at the guards who were facing away from her, and saw that they didn't seem to notice, so she didn't care about thinking about it and checking who hit her calf with something just now, so she quickly tiptoed up and quickly dodged to the side.

However, where was the person who attacked Ling Qingrui willing to let her go like this, maybe she was so eager to resolve the danger of being discovered, a little anxious, Ling Qingrui just got up, and in an instant she noticed two winds coming, one went straight to her legs, and the other was heading towards the ground!

wanted to dodge, but it was too late, Ling Qingrui was hit in the crook of her leg, and her body knelt down involuntarily, and at the same time, another thing wrapped in the sound of the wind hit the ground with a "snap" sound, and the guards immediately noticed it and quickly turned around......
