Chapter 94: Back to the Cold Palace
Lin Guifei also heard Mama's words, and also said loudly, "Sister, I'm just looking for someone, why did I make such a big noise, I don't know, I thought something big happened in the Middle Palace." ”
She has always been used to being flamboyant, and she didn't feel that she offended the queen at all.
The queen's face sank, she turned her head to look at Concubine Lin, and her voice was displeased, "Sister, is this wishing that something would happen to the palace?"
"The concubine doesn't mean that," Lin Guifei replied with ease, "The middle palace is related to the country, once something happens, the entire harem will definitely be implicated, and the concubines will not be spared when the time comes, how dare you look forward to an accident?"
"Don't dare to be the best, although you are favored, but after all, you are in a high position, and you must weigh what you say in the future, don't lose your royal dignity. ”
The queen counted down Concubine Lin in front of all the nobles.
Although Concubine Lin was annoyed in her heart, she still responded respectfully on her face, "The concubine has written it down." ”
Only then did the queen retract her gaze and sweep her gaze to everyone in the audience.
"Today's Chinese New Year's Eve, the banquet will end here, and you should go back to observe the New Year earlier." ”
Everyone stood up and answered in unison, "Yes." ”
Because the guards of the middle palace are now looking for Nan Chuyu, they can't spare too many people to send everyone out of the palace, so they are assigned by Mama Lin, and the palace maid will send people to the palace gate.
Yunluo also followed everyone out of the main hall.
Jin Shu and Zhinian followed.
The Northern Jiang Kingdom did not move the capital, and it still used the palace of the previous dynasty, which was only renovated, but there was no big move.
Every road in the harem, Yunluo is extremely familiar.
Especially the road from the Middle Palace to the Palace of Nourishing Hearts.
As she was walking, she paused in her footsteps, stopped, and her eyes fell on a certain place on the ground.
Jin Shu also stopped, "What is the princess looking at?"
Yunluo turned around and walked towards the palace road next to her, and after only two steps, she bent down and picked up a sachet on the ground.
Jin Shu also saw it, frowned and said, "This sachet ...... It's familiar. ”
She must have seen it, but she couldn't remember where she had seen it.
Yunluo's gaze looked over to this palace road, and said in a deep voice, "This is Nan Chuyu's sachet, I saw it when I treated her broken leg before." ”
The point is that this road leads to the cold palace.
Jin Shu's eyes lit up, "Yes, yes, the slave maid saw the South girl wearing it when she was in the horse farm before, this sachet is ordinary in style, but the fragrance is peculiar, at that time, the slave and maid also asked the South girl's maid, which is the ......"
She couldn't remember the name of the spice.
Zhinian took over, "Deer antlers, there are some sandalwood and angelica mixed in it." ”
Yunluo was surprised and turned to look at Zhinian.
"You smell it?"
Zhinian nodded, "The slave father and maid have sold spices before, so they know a little bit." ”
Yunluo did not doubt him, and his gaze continued to look in the direction of the cold palace.
"We'll stop by and look for it. ”
I hope that Nan Chuyu hasn't had an accident yet.
When he was about to walk to the cold palace, an old palace maid who was old at a glance walked over.
The old palace maid didn't recognize Yunluo, and directly stretched out her hand to block their way, "Don't go forward, the noble person has to go forward, there is a cold palace in front, and idle people are not allowed to approach." ”
Seeing that the old palace maid did not salute, the brocade book spoke out in the back.
"You're stopping Princess Yingchuan. ”
When the old palace maid heard that it was a princess, she hurriedly put down her arm and knelt down to salute, "The slave maid has eyes and doesn't know Mount Tai, and she doesn't recognize the princess, so I hope the princess will forgive me." ”
"Excuse me," Yunluo finished speaking, looking at the pitch black ahead, "You just came out of the cold palace?"
"Yes. The old palace maid echoed.
"You see a beautiful girl in a long blue dress?" Yunluo asked again.
The old palace maid frowned and looked back, "How could a beautiful girl come to this cold palace? The slave and maid just walked all the way, but they didn't see anyone. ”
Jinshu raised his eyes and looked at Yunluo, "Princess, since she didn't see anyone coming, she wants to come to Nan and the girl is not here, otherwise we will go back, right?"
"Nan Chuyu's sachet won't appear here for no reason," Yunluo looked back at Zhinian.
Knowing his mind, he took out the silver from the silver bag and handed it to the old palace maid, "Our master wants to go over and have a look, and I hope that my sister will be accommodating and won't trouble you, just take a look and leave." ”
The old palace maid took the silver in her hand, "The slave and maid will retreat, the cold palace is very unlucky, and the princess should not stay longer." ”
With that, she took the silver and left.
Yunluo's face has been ugly since just now.
The closer she got to the cold palace, the more suffocated she became.
The place where the palace maid had bad luck in her mouth, she had lived for two years.
This is where her nightmare begins.
Suddenly, her eyes regained her composure and she stepped forward.
Jinshu and Zhinian glanced at each other, and they both felt that something was wrong with Yunluo, but they didn't dare to forget it.
You can only keep up.
After walking a few steps, in the darkness, the cold palace appeared in front of him.
There are palace walls on the left and right sides of the place, and there is not even a stream of heat.
It was pitch black and silent, as if all movement was swallowed up by darkness.
Even the air was cold.
Jin Shu couldn't help but hug his arm, his teeth chattering from the cold, "King, princess, or let's go back, it's too cold here." ”
Zhinian wore a thick head, and when he saw this, he took off the outermost shoulder and gave it to the brocade book.
There was still her body temperature on her shoulder, and after taking it, the brocade book was put on herself.
Yunluo didn't seem to hear Jinshu speak, and only looked at the road to the cold palace seriously.
Looking at it like this, she seemed to see the scene of herself being dragged into the cold palace in her previous life.
Hands clenched.
"Ahh
Her exclamation startled Zhinian as well.
Only Yunluo was indifferent.
Jin Shu raised his eyes and looked around, and said, "Princess, why don't we go to the guards of the Middle Palace and ask them to take someone to the cold palace to look for it, it's too terrible here." ”
"Terrible?" Yunluo finally spoke, but there was depression and pain in his voice, "The place you think is terrible is the place where people live, and how afraid those people must be when they live in it." ”
"That being said, if they hadn't made a mistake, they wouldn't have been locked up here. Jin Shu pursed his lips.
Zhinian sensed that Yunluo was wrong, and hurriedly turned his head over, made a "shhh
"Sister Jinshu, don't say it. ”
While they were talking, Yunluo had already walked to the door of the cold palace,
The vermilion gate of the cold palace looked even more terrifying in the darkness and gloom, and the doors were all locked with iron chains, leaving only a hole to deliver food.
Zhinian also saw the hole and couldn't help but ask, "Why is there a hole here?"
"It's used to deliver food, and the people inside can't get out, and if they don't have anything to eat, they will starve to death. Yunluo's voice was deep.
Jin Shu looked over, "How does the princess know?"
