Hearing this, Gu Yu was stunned for a moment, and then the corners of his lips gradually rose:
"Can this be taken seriously?"
The little eunuch quickly leaned down and said:
"I am willing to guarantee with my life that I have witnessed everything with my own eyes. If any of the sentences are not true, I am willing to be punished by being quartered on five horses and linked to the nine clans."
Gu Yu suddenly frowned, looking very different from just now:
"What are you talking about? You are a slave of Shuilian Palace. You will only follow me to rise step by step. How can you be quartered by five horses?"
As he spoke, a strange smile flashed across Gu Yu's face:
"Come, comb my hair, and choose the suit of clothes at the bottom of the wooden cabinet. I want to meet His Majesty."
In the empty dormitory, He Muyan looked coldly at the flickering bright lights outside the hall, and raised the hand holding the wine glass again.
The cold wine slowly poured into the lips, with a faint peach blossom aroma and a dizzying wine taste.
A drop of wine spilled accidentally and landed on his collar, like an ink stain, slowly spreading.
He Muyan went like this, drinking glass after glass of wine until the lights in front of his eyes gradually blurred and turned into star points one after another.
He Muyan smiled mockingly.
He didn't like the taste of wine, not only because he was an accidental product of drinking, but also because when he was young, his father would abuse him and his mother in every way he could think of when they were drunk.
He vented, roared, and acted wantonly, like an irrational beast, tearing apart his gentleman's human mask.
And when he wakes up, looking at the mother and son with bruises and swollen faces, he will start a new round of disgust and cold eyes.
Because their existence seemed to remind him at any time that he was not a wise king, but a person with perverted animal desires, unable to control himself, and relying on alcohol and venting to maintain his pathetic life.
He Muyan stroked the white lion king beside him. So he liked to tame all kinds of beasts and watch them transform from animalistic individuals who could only dominate themselves with desire, to well-behaved cats attached to him.
And their loyalty is undoubtedly more real, far simpler and purer than that of humans.
It's a pity that a little fox appeared. He couldn't be tamed no matter what. He was led by her by the nose, but he still couldn't calm down.
But in fact, as long as she surrenders...
He Muyan looked at the wine glass shaking in his hand and smiled bitterly.
Su Lian is so proud, so how can he give in?
Standing up unsteadily, He Muyan looked at the dark and empty hall, feeling extremely lonely around him.
"His Majesty......"
A soft voice came from outside the hall, and He Muyan was startled.
To Su Lian's surprise, the sedan kept moving forward after entering the palace gate without any sign of stopping.
Su Lian opened the curtain of the sedan chair and saw the sedan driving further and further sideways until it stopped at an extremely remote corner of the palace.
Opening the curtain, Su Lian stretched out his head:
"Eunuch Zhou, where are you?"
Zhou Ninghai was silent, bowed his head and stepped aside.
Seeing his appearance, Su Lian made a good guess and simply walked out of the sedan chair and stood still in front of the palace gate.
Seeing her like this, Zhou Ninghai felt uncomfortable and could only whisper:
"Don't be upset, Your Majesty. Your Majesty is thinking about your Majesty in your heart. It's just that you've been sulking recently, so you've neglected your Majesty."
Sighing, Su Lian resignedly took the little pom-pom by its collar and threw it in.
After being stunned for a few seconds, the little fluffy ball jumped up from the dusty ground and hugged Su Lian's thigh:
"Master, master, master! Do we really want to live here? Woohoo!"
The little pom-pom was deeply disgusted.
Only then did Su Lian realize that maybe it was because the Cold Palace had not been inhabited for many years, and because of the heavy rain recently, the entire palace exuded a rotten smell.
The walls and corners were covered with gray-green moss, and there was only a broken table, chairs and a worn-out bamboo mat inside.
Su Lian frowned and picked up the little pompon again.
"This environment is indeed too harsh."
Seeing the two maids guarding the door, Su Lian waved:
"Come here and clean it up."
But one of the maids rolled her eyes:
"My Lady, please don't think that you are still the Concubine Su before. You have to do your own work. We are sent by His Majesty to guard you."
As he said that, he threw a broom inside.
Sweeper just hit the little pom-pom's tail. Although it couldn't feel it, it still held its own tail and bounced it aside with an "ouch".
Su Lian's eyes turned cold and she said loudly:
"Why, do you think I've fallen out of favor?"
Hearing this, the two maids covered their mouths and laughed secretly, as if they had heard something ridiculous.
Su Lian gave a sarcastic smile:
"The fallen phoenix is not as good as a chicken, but you must also know that I, Su Lian, can be favored once, and I can be favored again. Now what you offend is just an abandoned concubine in the cold palace, but at that time, what you offended was the imperial concubine.
.Or...maybe... the imperial concubine."
The two of them turned pale after hearing Su Lian's words. After briefly analyzing the pros and cons, one of the tall and thin maids quickly came over, picked up the broom, and went into the room to clean.
Su Lian then nodded with satisfaction.
Because there was still some time left for cleaning, Su Lian sat outside the door for a while holding the little pom-pom.
But as soon as he sat down, Su Lian heard the sound of footsteps coming from the distance, as well as the sound of gongs and drums.
Frowning her eyebrows slightly, Su Lian turned her head and asked the other round-faced maid:
"What happened over there?"
The round-faced maid seemed hesitant, but after thinking about it she said:
"Your Majesty has recently adopted a new concubine, and I'm afraid the ceremony is going on at this time."
Su Lian's eyebrows twitched and she almost rushed over to show him how good she was in front of him.
Her feelings hurt so much that she was dying, and his concubines over there were sealed.
Seeing her ugly expression, the round-faced maid added again:
"Your Majesty, it is said that the doctor brought by this concubine cured your majesty's serious illness, so he was made a concubine."
Physician?
Recalling the original plot, Su Lian's face darkened.
There was such a section in the original plot, but it was later, but this time it coincided with the time when she removed the poison for He Muyan. Now He Muyan can do something to send her to the cold palace, I am afraid it is also related to this
.
Su Lian really didn't expect such a coincidence, and Gu Yu's unintentional involvement escalated the matter to a new level.
But she remembered that not long after this incident happened, she was thrown into jail.
Su Lian sighed and walked into the room holding the little pom-pom in his arms.
She was already weak after the mother's poison was removed, and she didn't have much time to live. Now that she was in such an environment, she might not be able to open her eyes one day.
Su Lian thought sarcastically.
Not far away, He Muyan stood under an umbrella, his eyes following the girl holding a snow-white fox in a dilapidated courtyard not far away.
