The lid of the box "slammed" open, emitting a rich aroma of camphor wood, mixed with a strange taste of rouge powder, and a wind rushed to the snort of the silver cicada.

"There's a ghost!" the silver cicada let out a scream that stood on end, and she stared at a red-faced "female ghost" who pounced on her, her hair was scattered, and she kicked her in the chest.

After screaming "ah", the silver cicada took a few steps back and fell, the back of her head "banged" on the ground, only to feel a sharp pain in her chest, the female ghost stepped on her hard, and then flew over her head with a "whew".

The silver cicada was shocked and frightened, her head swelled, she couldn't catch her breath, and she rolled her eyelids and fainted.

The dormitory echoed with an endless scream, Princess Tong didn't know what happened to the silver cicada, she was waiting to put on a cloak, suddenly heard a strange cry of "whoop", and then the silver cicada screamed "there is a ghost", and then the cry frightened her into a daze.

Shocked and turned his head to look, a red-faced female ghost with long hair and fangs and a mouth appeared in front of him, running out of the camphor wood box. A fiery red ghostly shadow flickered, and a terrifying howl shook the empty dormitory.

The female ghost's dark eyes were wide open, jumping and jumping, a pair of "claws" were as red as blood, waving left and right indiscriminately, roaring strangely, and running towards her like lightning.

Princess Tong trembled, looking directly at the female ghost, so shocked that she couldn't even close her eyelids. She is still young, and she has been cared for by the palace people since she was a child, when has she ever seen such a scary thing.

Her eyes widened, her mouth screamed hysterically, and before the "female ghost" ran over, she felt her legs tremble like a sieve, her body fell to the ground weakly, and she fainted.

Next to her, a little gong'e with a double hammerhead, saw the female ghost running over like a whirlwind, and she was also so frightened that she cramped all over, her mouth trembled, and she knelt on the ground with a "poof".

The silver cicada and the princess fainted one after another, and Xiao Gong'e grabbed her hair with both hands, secretly hating why she didn't faint and had to endure such a terrifying scene. She "gurgled" twice in her throat and made a meaningless sound. I wanted to shout for help, but the muscles on my face twitched for a while, but my mouth didn't listen.

Zi Ning wore a big red cloak, like a witch dancing a god, waving two palms dyed with bright red rouge, and ran from the camphor wood box all the way to the door of the dormitory. Seeing that she was about to escape, she suddenly saw that Princess Tong was straight and dizzy, she was stunned for a moment, and thought: "No, the princess is so fragile, she will faint when she says she will faint?"

I only felt jubilant for a moment, and then I felt guilty. She was forced to pretend to be a ghost, just to escape for her life, but unexpectedly scared the princess and put her in a dilemma. I never imagined that there would be such an amazing effect, but I blamed her for being too realistic.

Zi Ning was deeply sorry for Princess Tong, but she didn't feel sad about the silver cicada, and thought: "That girl has a bad heart, it's not in the way to scare her, who told her to chew her tongue behind her back, she deserves to be scared by ghosts." ”

The little Gong'e knelt on the ground, her face was pale, and she trembled with fright, and saw the female ghost flying in front of her, "whew" out of the temple gate, rolling up a bright red cold wind.

The door of the hall slammed shut, the cold wind blew into the dormitory from the half-open window lattice, and the lanterns hanging on the beams and pillars swayed, revealing a terrible and gloomy feeling everywhere.

The heavy rain outside the hall was pouring down, and there was a rumbling thunder in the air, Zi Ning looked up at the dark gray sky, and felt uneasy: "Spring thunder is rare, could it be that I did something bad to scare the princess, and God is going to thunder and smash me?" Amitabha, I really didn't mean it." ”

She walked around the courtyard a few times, the pouring rain running down her face, the shadows of the green trees around her overlapping, and the rain was like a smoke-like chill, as if shrouded in a thick cool mist.

Zi Ning tightened her neck, trembled, and hurriedly threw away the ivory pick in her mouth, and then rinsed the red rouge on her face with rainwater, her hands were dripping with blood-red rouge water, and she was terrified when she looked at it. I thought to myself, "No wonder the princess fainted, it's really scary." Fortunately, the rain washed away the incriminating evidence, and as long as this rouge physical evidence is destroyed, no matter how haunted the palace of the Hair Dove is, it will not be on my head. ”

After the rain washed away, it left traces on her face, her hair was wet and scattered over her shoulders, and in a blink of an eye, she turned into a flower face.

The continuous cold rain drenched her with chills, and she suddenly heard a piercing scream erupting from the dormitory behind her, and the little palace lady desperately shouted: "Princess, princess, wake up...... Come on, people......"

Zi Ning was suddenly startled, and thought to herself: "It's not good, she screamed so loudly, someone will come soon." I'm still thirty-six plans, and it's the best policy, and I can't let people catch it!"

The rain was majestic, and there was really no one in the courtyard, Zi Ning looked at the palace gate in the distance, and ran out with his legs, feeling more and more happy: "Finally escaped, hahaha......"

Rushing out of Cailan Palace in a panic, she hung her heart and ran to the edge of the pond outside in one breath, seeing the ripples of rain rippling everywhere far and near, and the direction of Cailan Palace was hazy, and no one came out to chase her.

She was relieved, and ran down all the way, only to feel pain everywhere in her body, the old wounds on her body were reopened, and the rain poured it, and the pain was even more unbearable, dyeing her white linen underwear a little red.

She gritted her teeth and endured, and looked down to see that she was wearing a red cloak embroidered with satin brocade, the material was light and soft, and the workmanship was extremely fine and elegant, thinking that it was the style worn by the goddess of the fairy clan. The pair of pale cyan embroidered shoes on the feet, the embroidery is very fine, but the soles are very thin, and they have only run such a little way, and the toes have been exposed.

Zi Ning didn't have a bun on her head, and her long hair was casually draped over her shoulders, soaked by the rain, and cemented into lumps of pimples. She was also worried about this dress, and thought: "Dress like this and escape, if you meet someone, it will be difficult not to attract attention." ”

Fortunately, the big red cloak had a wide hat, and he quickly lifted the hat, tightly covered his head, tightly covered half of his face, and tightened the brim of the hat with both hands, revealing only a pair of sparkling eyes.

She has a delicate and slender figure, about the same height as Princess Tong, and her cloak is very well-fitted, and she sways and walks, with a delicate and graceful beauty.

Zi Ning lowered her head tightly, hurried forward in the face of the rain, there are extremely quiet and elegant rockery flowing water on both sides of the cobblestone road, the trees are lush, and the spring flowers and green willows reflect the pink walls and green tiles, which is filled with a fairyland-like meaning.

She had no time to enjoy the beautiful scenery, and sighed in her heart that the scenery of the inner palace courtyard was really stronger than the outer palace gate, just looking at the palace wall of this road, there were vermilion, blue brick color and gray white, compared with those ordinary courtyard walls, there was a unique charm.

She didn't know that every palace wall of the Hair Dove Palace was personally laid out by Empress Hua Yao to distinguish the strength of the formation by color. As long as someone mistakenly broke into the formation, Empress Hua Yao could immediately detect it.

Zi Ning took a cursory look at the palace wall, no matter how beautiful the scenery was, she didn't have the heart to express her lyrical aspirations. Leisure and elegance are exclusive to coquettish literati, she stays for a moment more and is more dangerous, eager to give birth to two more legs, and quickly escape back to the second gate.

Seeing the trees and pavilions winding on top of each other, and not seeing a single person in sight, it was a good time for her to escape. I was secretly happy in my heart, and I called for good luck, and quickly took a big stride, aimed in one direction, and hurried forward.

The bleak wind and cold rain blew in her face, Zi Ning shivered for a while, and hurriedly tightened her cloak and hat, covering all her face, and trotted with her head down.

Twisting and turning along the way, around two gardens, she was so tired that she was panting, but she was stunned in place, and suddenly found that she was lost.

There are immortal forbidden formations arranged in the palace of the Hair Dove King, if you don't know the birth gate of the forbidden formation, even if you are a member of the immortal clan, you may not be able to break out for a while.

Zi Ning looked at it, and saw that there were flowers and green trees everywhere, and the overlapping pavilions and water pavilions were all exactly the same in scale, and it was impossible to distinguish between the southeast and the northwest. And she has been gone for so long that she hasn't even touched a palace door.

I couldn't help but be anxious: "This Hair Dove Palace is so strange, the design is more complicated than the Nine Heavenly Palace, there is not even a sun on a rainy day, I don't know where to run to?" ”

I was so anxious to turn around in place, I couldn't think of a good way, and I saw that there were roads in front and back, left and right, and there seemed to be countless palaces. If you find one palace room after another, you have to exhaust her.

was in a hurry to get on the fire, when he suddenly heard footsteps coming behind him, and a crisp voice shouted: "Slave maid please the princess." ”

Zi Ning's neck stiffened, slowly turned around, tightened her cloak and hat, and saw a round-faced little Gong'e with a finch bun, holding an oil-paper umbrella in her hand, bending down to salute her, and then looking up at her with a smile.

She panicked, covered her face tightly, waved her hand, twisted her throat and said, "Excuse me!" This little Gong'e looked at the red cloak she was wearing, and mistakenly thought she was Princess Tong. Zi Ning's heart was pounding, and the crime of pretending to be a princess must also be beheaded after the autumn!

But she could only pretend to be stubborn, calmed down slightly, and thought: "Maybe this little Gong'e can't recognize it, so I'll fool it." If she is nervous and trembling, and her speech is not neat, it will make her suspicious. ”

Fortunately, it is not difficult to imitate the tone of Princess Tong's voice, seeing that Xiao Gong'e stood still, looking at her with a pair of eyes, she stood firmly at the moment, learned Princess Tong's tone, and asked, "Where are you going?"

Xiao Gong'e is not the maid of Cailan Palace, Zi Ning asked her to be exempt, and she did not doubt it, and decided that Zi Ning was Princess Tong. Seeing the princess asking, she raised her head and said, "The emperor is injured, and the stewards and instructors are all rushing to the Zunhua Palace, and the slaves and maids are also going to serve." The princess went to see the emperor, didn't her sisters follow her to hold the umbrella?" said and hurriedly held the oil-paper umbrella high and blocked it above Zi Ning's head.

On a rainy day, the princess went out, with at least two maids holding umbrellas and carrying things. Seeing that Princess Tong was alone and drenched, Xiao Gong'e couldn't help but be a little surprised.

But it is no secret that the princess has been in a strange temper lately, and often stands alone by the willow tree at night, and weeps with long sighs. Today, the emperor was accidentally injured, and the princess may be in a hurry to go to the Zunhua Palace, and it is very likely that the maids around her can't keep up with her.

Xiao Gong'e was suddenly relieved in her heart, and felt some pity for Princess Tong, but she didn't know that the princess in front of her in front of her in a red cloak was a fake. The real Princess Tong fainted in the palace at this time, and a group of maids had already become a mess.

After listening to Xiao Gong'e, Zi Ning said a faint "um", then covered her face tightly, turned her eyes to the side, and wondered how to get rid of this Gong'e.

If she knew some spells, she would immediately stun Xiao Gong'e. glanced at her, and saw that this little girl was fourteen or fifteen years old, with a dexterous body, very lively and active, and thought: "I haven't eaten for two or three days, even if I want to stun her, it is estimated that it will be difficult to do it." My small body is not necessarily her opponent. ”

Immediately giving up this unwise idea, Xiao Gong'e saw that she was silent, and she didn't understand what she meant, thinking that the princess was sad and sad, and hurriedly persuaded: "Don't be sad, the princess must be safe." Let the slave hold an umbrella and send the princess to Zunhua Palace. As he spoke, he raised a hand, grabbed Zi Ning's arm, and slowly walked forward in the rain.

Zi Ning secretly complained in her heart, but she couldn't refuse, so she had to bite the bullet, put her arm all the way, and walked slowly towards Zunhua Palace.

Zunhua Palace and the outer palace gate are in the opposite direction, Zi Ning walked farther and farther, unconsciously stepping into the forbidden formation of Zunhua Palace, the scenery behind him slowly changed, and the path of the grass and trees in the future tense was tightly covered. If she turned back at this time, she would not be able to find the direction of the road.

The closer she got to Zunhua Palace, the more chill she felt in Zi Ning's heart, and she thought: "At this time, Zunhua Palace is full of people, I broke in like this, and I didn't have to pretend to be a princess when I saw Fang Yan, just kneel down and let her whip her to death." ”

Thinking of the whip stained with dove wine and water, there was a creep on her back, and her fingers trembled slightly, and the little palace thought that she was worried about the emperor, so she hurriedly said: "Don't be anxious, princess, this is the Zunhua Palace." ”

Zining's scalp was numb, and she hurriedly raised her gaze and looked forward. Through the dense and continuous rain curtain, I saw a hazy red-walled palace in front of me, which seemed to float in a cloud of white mist, like a heavenly palace, which made people feel unreal and psychedelic.

It is the Zunhua Palace.

Q version extra:

Silver Cicada: Princess Qiyu, they are all useless slaves and maids, and they are not good at protecting the princess. But the female ghost blew on the slave's face, and the slave was attacked by the yin wind, so she couldn't help but faint.

Princess: The female ghost is really terrifying, and the princess also felt a dark wind coming, and it was dark in front of her, and the female ghost was no longer visible.

Zi Ning: Your eyes are dark because you fainted, okay! I pretended to be a female ghost to scare you, I was wrong, but you said that I had my own Yin Wind special effects, I was not happy. At that time, I was in a hurry, I just ran a little faster, and it had something to do with Yin Feng?
