Chapter 123 Gentle and crazy criticizing exotic protons (6)
On the other side is the cold palace.
In the empty dormitory, only the dim light was still burning.
There was deathly silence in the cold palace, and the occasional chirping of birds seemed so desolate.
Lying on the bed was a young man, his face was pale and bloodless, his lips were chapped, and his white undershirt was already stained red by the blood seeping from the wound.
Xiao Jingzhan slowly opened his eyes, and his consciousness gradually returned. Looking at the sky above the dilapidated dormitory, he suddenly smiled.
He is not dead, he is still alive.
There is a chance when you are alive...
After returning to the palace that day, Emperor Zhao An seemed to be very sorry to see that he was not dead. He threw him to the cold palace with a wave of his hand, and the servants treated him harshly.
The environment in the cold palace was harsh, and the wounds on his body worsened immediately, and his whole body was burning hot. At that moment, Xiao Jingzhan really wanted to die as he wished.
But there is always a voice in my heart asking.
Is there anyone or anything in this world that I miss?
He licked his dry lips, and it seemed that he could still taste the sweetness of the candied haws, and he thought of the man with a smile as bright as the sun.
I really want to see you again.
He is not dead, he is still alive.
There is a chance when you are alive...
A trace of desire and warmth suddenly emerged in his cold heart. He never knew he had such a strong desire.
Every three months, the imperial court would recruit girls of suitable age from every household in the capital to enter the palace, allowing them to learn the rules and take the exam for female officials.
If you can find an official position in the harem, you will also become famous in the capital.
There is another kind of palace maid who receives "special care" and will be sent to the cold palace to take care of those useless concubines and crazy concubines. They will never come back.
None of the women in the cold palace are easy to mess with. They will become extremely cruel whenever they get sick. Most of the maids who come close to them never come back.
The data given to Zhu Yu by the system mentioned that the villain, as a hostage of the enemy, often stayed in the cold palace. Emperor Zhao An had a volatile temper, and how he treated Xiao Jingzhan depended on his mood.
According to the resentment those in the Su family have towards Zhu Yu, she will definitely be sent to the cold palace.
"go in."
An old woman's voice came from behind.
Zhu Yu looked up when he heard the sound, and saw an old woman about fifty years old standing not far away, looking at him sharply.
This old woman was one of the mothers in charge of the cold palace, and she was also a ruthless character. She was usually unsmiling and kept a straight face all day long, like a wooden sculpture.
Zhu Yu saluted her from a distance, then opened the door openly and went in.
The mother in charge looked at her back, a trace of disgust flashed in her eyes, and the corners of her mouth drew a sinister arc.
Finally someone came.
The walls of the cold palace are dilapidated and desolate everywhere.
Zhu Yu carried his small cloth bag and entered the assigned place. He heard that he was once a favored concubine.
——Concubine Ling.
As soon as he entered the palace, a tea cup fell at his feet. The crackling sound frightened Zhu Yu to avoid it and almost fell to the ground.
"Who let you in?"
Concubine Ling was wearing a thin purple gauze shirt, with no makeup on her cheeks, and the ends of her eyes were slightly drooped. She looked like she should have a good temper, but now her tone was cold, and the frost in her eyes could not be concealed.
However, although Zhu Yu is only fifteen years old and her small stature makes it difficult for her to cross the threshold, she is actually an independent adult woman who has met countless people.
Therefore, it is not difficult to see that Concubine Ling is pretending.
Weak beasts expose their spikes to protect themselves against external threats.
Who can't pretend?
Zhu Yu: "Xiaoba, activate the tearful skill."
888:【Great~】
"...Beautiful lady...my name is Su Xingran, I'm sorry..."
The little man in the palace suddenly started crying. His pear blossoms and raindrops looked so endearing that even Concubine Ling couldn't help but be startled.
