As newcomers, Shen Xingwan and Shen Ruoyan kept a low profile in Liyuan. In addition, they both had cautious personalities and avoided many accidents.
Shen Xingwan was responsible for quickly figuring out the rules of survival in the garden, while Shen Ruoyan was responsible for figuring out the terrain here, and even went out several times to explore at night when the moon was dark and the wind was high.
"It's hard to do anything. This Beirong Palace is loose on the outside and tight on the inside. It looks very spacious from the outside, but in fact it's very guarded inside." Shen Ruoyan's expression was not very good, "Even this little Liyuan is actually being watched secretly. , the closer you are to the palace where the emperor lives, the tighter the security should be."
It's impossible for the two of them to break through forcefully, they can only outsmart them, which requires the right time.
The problem now is that they can no longer afford it, and I don’t know how long the border can last.
Shen Xingwan poured a cup of herbal tea for Shen Ruoyan, "Just wait, there will be action soon. The Fourth Prince can't sit still."
Leading the troops at the border is the third prince, the legitimate son of the queen. Once he wins, relying on the prestige of this station, the third prince will become the most powerful contender for the throne. The fourth prince will not let him become bigger.
Of course, the most important thing is that she discovered some interesting things these days.
Ever since they entered the Liyuan, Qumu Ruo and Qu Muli came from the same dance studio as them, and were both sent by the fourth prince, so they were regarded as belonging to the same sect.
The living, dance practice, and daily life of the four of them were all arranged together, and they had more contact with each other.
Shen Xingwan has come into contact with all kinds of people in the world, as well as top mercenary groups such as Liuying, and has extremely accurate intuition in some aspects.
During her frequent contact with Qu Muli and Qu Muluo, she smelled an unusual smell on them.
The fourth prince sent four people in, but it turned out that all four of them were not efficient, and each had their own agenda.
The imperial city of Beirong is a bit interesting, and it seems that there are constant overt and covert struggles.
Shen Xingwan said, "Stop your night visits for the time being and have less contact with Qumuli and the others."
Sometimes people are particularly sensitive to others of the same kind, and she doesn't want them to be exposed too early.
Maybe they have been exposed.
But they have come to this point, the four of them are now one, and no one can retreat.
If anything happens to any of the four, just because they appear to be from the Fourth Prince's Mansion, the other three will be killed in a row and will no longer be reused and appear in front of the emperor.
So in this game, no matter whether it is a famous brand or a hidden card, the four of them are tied together. Until the final goal is achieved, the false superficial peace must still be maintained.
There seems to be harmony between the four of them, but they are always wary of each other.
Life in the Liyuan is also very boring. Apart from being called to perform at banquets, I spend most of my time practicing here and falling into endless intrigues.
There are so many beauties, but they are fighting fiercely for a vague and hopeless goal.
The opportunity that Shen Xingwan and the others were waiting for came soon.
In the afternoon, the garden suddenly became lively.
Shen Ruoyan opened the window and looked for a while, "It seems like someone big is coming."
"Let's go out and take a look." Shen Xingwan said.
As soon as the two opened the door, Qumuliqujuxing on the opposite side also opened the door.
The four of them smiled like plastic sisters and walked into the yard together.
The courtyard was very lively, and the dancers all came out.
The female official was receiving an extraordinary impressive young woman. Shen Xingwan took a quick glance at her and quickly figured out in her mind that she must be a powerful palace maid next to a high-ranking concubine.
Sure enough, the female official soon said, "This is Concubine Yun's eldest maid Mulan, come here to salute."
Shen Xingwan and the others stood at the back and bowed to Da Da.
Mulan's eyes swept over this group of beautiful women and said majestically, "Concubine Yun wants to rehearse a show recently, so she plans to call some dancers over."
This is a common excuse used by high-ranking concubines. These young, beautiful and low-status women are often summoned to do their best to pamper and please the king.
If you are lucky, if you are favored, you will be able to find a place in the harem, but it will be difficult to climb to a high position. If you are not lucky, you will not know how you died, and you will disappear into the deep palace.
As soon as these words came out, everyone became restless. Even though they knew there was a long road ahead, they still wanted to seize the opportunity regardless of their own safety.
"Yu Yan, Yu Ning, Qu Mu Li, Qu Mu Xing, pack your gifts and come with me." Mulan said.
Si Nu Gong glanced at them with a half-smile, "This is your fate, go ahead."
Under everyone's envious and jealous eyes, the four of them went back to their rooms to pack their things. They had nothing to pack in the first place.
Soon one person followed Mulan with a baggage.
Shen Xingwan was not surprised by this result. Concubine Yun was the biological mother of the fourth prince. She was born into one of the major tribes of Beirong and had a noble status.
The four of them followed Mulan in a winding and fast way, and finally stopped in front of Feiyun Palace.
Before entering, the luggage of the four of them and Shen Xingwan's piano were all carefully inspected.
Mulan took them directly to the remote area of Feiyun Palace, "You guys should stay here for now, and a nanny will come to teach you the rules later."
The four of them bowed their heads and responded obediently, "Yes."
Mulan went to reply to Concubine Yun and left them here.
Shen Xingwan looked up and saw a beautiful and delicate girl sitting on the swing, giggling, looking a little out of sorts.
Even so, that face is still good-looking, with a slap-shaped face, delicate facial features, and long curly hair, which is endearing.
At this time, suddenly a beautiful and fierce woman came over and looked at them a few times, "Haha, another group of beautiful birds have arrived."
Probably noticing their gaze, the woman smiled and said, "Her name is Xia Sha, and she was the most favored woman in front of the emperor last month."
"Guess why she became like this..." The woman's voice was inexplicably permeable.
Qu Muli and Qu Muxing took a step back, with pale faces as if they were frightened.
After the woman said this, she laughed and left.
Soon a palace maid took them back to their room and waited on them to freshen up.
Shen Xingwan quickly came up with something. It turned out that this place was also called Linglong Pavilion, and all the young and beautiful women were kept in captivity, all of which were used by Concubine Yun to please the emperor.
She slipped the bracelet on her hand without leaving any trace, and the palace maid was also very good at it.
He lowered his voice and said, "The girls here change very quickly. If they are not pampered or spoiled, they will disappear, and then they will be replaced with new ones."
"My slave, I would like to express my gratitude. Now that the girls are here, they must try their best to fight, otherwise they may disappear one day." The palace maid skillfully said what she had said to other girls before.
Just a few sentences reveal too much information. What does it mean to go wrong... It's hard not to think too much.
Shen Xingwan thought of the woman's words. They were indeed caged birds when they came here, unable to escape or fly out. Their wings were broken just to please the king.
