After finally dealing with the Queen Mother, the aunt next to the Queen Mother led Shen Shenyan out of the palace, but the route she took was different from the one she took. Shen Shenyan said that this was a nearby road, so Shen Shenyan said: Hehe! It's close here, so why didn't you take this earlier? Road? Do you want to tell her how big the palace map is?
"Hey, Miss Shen." The aunt who was leading the way suddenly covered her stomach and looked at Shen Shenyan with some embarrassment.
Shen Shenyan looked at her belly and understood: "But it hurts?"
The aunt nodded awkwardly.
Gee, Shen Shenyan was a little funny. She had seen this kind of gag countless times. Wasn't it just to guide her to a place? Then let her see something or hear something.
As for whether someone would come to kidnap her, Shen Shenyan was quite relieved. After all, the Queen Mother came to the Shen Mansion with great fanfare today to take her into the palace. If she got lost in the palace, it would definitely be difficult to recover.
Shen Shenyan also said forcefully: "Auntie, let's go to the toilet. Can you please show me the way? Ayan can go out by himself."
The man didn't expect Shen Shenyan to be so easy to talk to. It was hard for her just now to think about how to tell her tactfully to let her go by herself. Now that she had already said that, it would be much easier. She probably pointed the way to Shen Shenyan. Shen Shenyan nodded, indicating that he remembered it.
Zaocao looked in the direction the man left, much more cautiously, and wanted to say something, but was stopped by Shen Shenyan's eyes.
Since they wanted her to hear something, they would definitely send someone to watch her in the dark, and their every move would be under each other's surveillance.
See if she really follows the route she said. After walking for a while, she may find that this road is wrong, and she may "accidentally" meet a palace maid, and then ask the palace maid to point the way. When they reach a strange place, they can blame the palace maid for pointing the wrong way.
She was familiar with the plot, and it was as expected by Shen Siyan. After walking for a while, she found out that it was wrong. At this time, a palace maid carrying a fruit plate appeared. Tsk, please call her Shen Prophet Siyan.
Shen Shenyan cooperated very well and went up to ask for directions. The palace maid also followed Shen Shenyan's ideas and pointed out a way for Shen Shenyan.
Shen Shenyan walked along the path pointed by the palace maid. The further he walked, the deserted it became, and the palace walls were much more dilapidated than other places. As he walked further inside, he could hear strings of laughter. In addition to laughter, there were also cries. , shouted, Zaocao put his hand on his sword and followed Shen Siyan cautiously.
Nianhua was timid and now he had grabbed Shen Shenyan's arm: "Miss, why is it so scary here? Do you think there could be a ghost?"
Shen Shenyan: "..."
Walking further inside, suddenly a smiling face appeared on the wall, looking at Shen Shenyan with a smile. Shen Shenyan was startled by her, but the man didn't notice it at all.
After laughing for a while, his expression suddenly changed, and he began to stare at her fiercely: "Which palace are you a concubine in? Are you trying to steal the emperor's possessions from me? I will kill you."
After saying that, he was about to jump off the wall, but someone caught him inside and pulled him off the wall.
Shen Shenyan understood that this was the cold palace.
However, this cold palace was a bit different from what she thought. It was almost like a lunatic asylum.
Is it possible that the Queen Mother asked her to come here? But she couldn't get in. Someone must be guarding the Cold Palace. Otherwise, if someone inside ran out and bumped into any concubine, another life would definitely be lost.
While Shen Shenyan was thinking, he suddenly saw a palace opposite the Leng Palace. The door was not closed, and when he looked inside, he could see a man sitting outside, embroidering something.
It seemed that it was her, Shen Shenyan came to a conclusion.
She wanted to see who the Queen Mother had tried so hard to let her see. With this thought in mind, she knocked on the door. The palace was very small and there was only a small courtyard inside. The people inside heard the sound and looked outside.
"who is it?"
Hearing the sound, Shen Shenyan opened the door and walked in. She also told her name very thoughtfully: "The daughter of the common people, Shen Shenyan, has met the empress. It's just that the daughter of the common people accidentally took the wrong road and lost her direction. There was a lot of trouble." , I hope your Majesty will forgive me."
The woman was stunned for a moment when she heard the words "Si Shen Yan". She had been here for many years and could only remember a few names that she had known many years ago. Many of them had begun to become blurry, but in the past few days she had heard the same person repeatedly. name.
"Are you Shen Shenyan, the legitimate daughter of the richest Shen family?" The man asked and added one more sentence to confirm his identity.
Shen Shenyan nodded: "Do you know a common girl?"
Why did the Queen Mother let her meet a person in the cold palace? Why did this person know her? Is she an enemy or a friend of the Queen Mother?
Then he thought of something and looked at the person in front of him in surprise: "Are you... Concubine Yu?"
Concubine Yu, Jun Ce's biological mother, was a popular concubine before the fall of the country. Jun Ce briefly enjoyed his father's love for three years, but later, Concubine Yu's mother country invaded and the emperor personally ordered the destruction of the country. , Concubine Yu and Jun Ce were also implicated. Concubine Yu was relegated to the cold palace and could only waste her life here. Jun Ce no longer favored her, and her body began to weaken from then on.
Since then? Shen Shenyan was a little unwilling to face the result, but he seemed to have to admit its authenticity. Jun Ce's illness was caused by the emperor? Why would an emperor be so cruel if tiger poison does not eat its seeds?
No wonder Jun Ce has always restrained his talents, no wonder the emperor didn't know that he knew martial arts, no wonder he has been ignored for so many years.
After confirming this, Shen Shenyan found that Jun Ce's eyebrows and eyes were indeed somewhat similar to Concubine Yu's, but it seemed that Concubine Yu's was a bit sharper than Jun Ce's.
Concubine Yu's appearance is one that will last ten thousand years at first glance and another ten thousand years later. Her facial features are very delicate and stunning at first glance. She becomes more and more attractive at second glance. I didn't expect a monarch who looks so weak. Ce, to have such an aggressive-looking mother.
Yu Lian was a little excited: "Has Ce mentioned me in front of you?"
She used "I" instead of "I" when she called herself, and presumably, people who were relegated to the cold palace, no matter how magnificent they were in the past, now end up like this, even worse than some servants.
Concubine Yu should cherish those hands very much, but now they have a lot of calluses.
She has been here for many years and knows very little about the outside world. Her father, who is still alive to protect her, will bring her some news about A Ce outside every day, which is an extra comfort.
Shen Shenyan nodded. Jun Ce had never mentioned it. She had heard everything, but she probably understood a mother's heart.
Concubine Yu became interested and automatically ignored Shen Shenyan's getting lost and asked Shen Shenyan to sit on another stone bench.
"What else has Ace mentioned to you?"
Shen Shenyan didn't expect that she would be chatting with someone when she entered the palace this time, but for some reason, she just felt that chatting with Jun Ce's mother was more comfortable than chatting with the Queen Mother.
