Chapter seven hundred and eighty sixth unbearable consequences
The moonlight spilled in from the window lattice, it was very light.
The food served to Yuan Yan can also be described as light.
The royal family of the Northern Wei Dynasty and the royal family of Dangxiang were somewhat related by blood. They originally had the same characteristics in many aspects.
Compared with the Central Plains dynasty, Dangxiang's production was naturally scarce, but its food and daily life were more luxurious.
Before the royal family of the Northern Wei Dynasty moved the capital to Luoyang, their daily expenses were even more extravagant than that of Dangxiang. However, during the process of moving the capital to Luoyang, the emperor of the Northern Wei Dynasty took advantage of the rebellion of some royal families and took the opportunity to annihilate all the royal family and powerful families.
After cleaning up everything, he and the Empress Dowager took the lead, and the entire Northern Wei Dynasty began to practice frugality. Some nobles were praised for their frugality, and many officials followed suit and tasted the benefits. Within a few years, the entire Northern Wei Dynasty became extravagant from top to bottom.
The wind disappeared into nothingness.
The food served to Yuan Yan at this time was just a bowl of millet rice, two plates of vegetables, and a bowl of minced meat soup.
Of course, this minced meat soup is not extraordinary. It is made from leopard fetus, deer sinew and other main ingredients. Several elixirs that are extremely beneficial to spiritual practice are added to the soup. However, this is the home of the Northern Wei Dynasty emperor, and such a diet has nothing to do with it.
Take into account your appetite.
Although the diet is simple, the links involved are naturally very sophisticated.
This bowl of minced meat soup is made by the palace pharmacist. When it is finally brought to Yuan Yan, it needs to be inspected by five people. After it is brought to Yuan Yan, it needs to be drunk within the tea time, so that it can perform at its best.
of medicinal power.
Yuan Yan has never had the luxury of fine clothing and food since she was a child, and she has no pursuit of food. She has too many things to think about on a daily basis. When such a soup is presented to her, she usually drinks it up in a few mouthfuls.
.
However, tonight, she was dressed in luxurious clothes, looking down at the bowl of medicine soup illuminated by the moonlight and candlelight, but she had no intention of picking up the bowl of medicine soup.
She frowned slightly, looked at the palace maid standing respectfully not far in front of her, and asked, "How could this happen?"
At this time, there were two palace maids standing on each side of her. These two palace maids were also very surprised, because even they could clearly see a hair floating in the bowl of medicine soup.
These two palace maids knew very well how attentive the palace maid who finally brought the bowl of medicine soup was. Since they could all see a hair floating in the bowl of medicine soup, it was naturally impossible for the palace maid who brought the medicine soup to
Can't see.
Regardless of whether there was such a strand of hair when the people who were inspecting it looked at it, it was very strange that there was such a strand of hair when the bowl of medicinal soup was finally served in front of Yuan Yan.
A hair in an ordinary person's soup bowl is just a small thing.
However, when such a thing appears in front of Yuan Yan at this time, it is not a trivial matter.
The palace maid took a deep breath. She seemed to have mustered up the courage to raise her head and wanted to speak.
However, the moment she raised her head, her body began to tremble violently. In the next moment, the palace maid's body expanded rapidly, and then turned into countless tiny pieces of flesh and blood.
It wasn't an explosion, but a complete smash.
Her entire body was completely destroyed from the inside out by a majestic force contained in her body, and disappeared in an instant.
This power did not spread wantonly outwards, but was confined within a range of one foot.
In the sight of Yuan Yan and the two palace maids beside Yuan Yan, the palace maid just disappeared. Where she disappeared, it was as if someone had thrown a large bucket of red paint out of thin air.
However, real flesh and blood is not paint after all. Although the majestic power that had long been hidden in the palace maid's body did not expand outwards, the pungent smell of blood instantly filled the quiet palace and dissipated outside.
The faces of the two palace maids turned extremely pale, and they subconsciously covered their mouths for the first time. However, the two screams squeezed out of their throats still came out extremely abruptly.
Continuous sirens, low shouts, and the sound of breaking the air continued to sound, and within a few breaths, dozens of practitioners gathered outside the hall.
Two spiritual practitioners entered the quiet hall first. They looked at the place where the palace maid disappeared, the extremely sticky blood on the ground, and the extremely uniform bone fragments and minced meat in the blood, and their expressions turned pale.
As pale as the two palace maids, they had seen many cruel killings. However, looking at such scenes and feeling the powerful force of killing this palace maid, they still felt a strong sense of discomfort in their stomachs.
Yuan Yan looked at the pool of blood on the ground with an expressionless face. This calmness and coldness even made the two spiritual realm practitioners fearful. However, in her sleeves, the nails of her hands were pricked with excessive force.
It pierced the palms of her hands.
It's not just fear and anger.
Being the last person to serve her soup is naturally one of the people she trusts and relies on the most in the palace.
This palace maid seems to be only responsible for her meals on weekdays. However, a lot of important information passed from the Southern Dynasty is only known to this palace maid, and only this palace maid will pass it on to her.
She could not imagine what the palace maid must have endured to be forced to carry such a soup of medicine in front of her, and then be forced to die in such a tragic way in front of her.
What made her extremely distressed at this time was that she felt that the last moment the palace maid raised her head, she wanted to say something to her, or even beg her for forgiveness. However, the palace maid didn't even say a word.
Just die right in front of her.
This palace maid was not a weakling. There were not many people in the Northern Wei Dynasty who could kill the palace maid in such a way, and there should be only one person who could let the palace maid die in front of her in such a way.
Her hands trembled slightly.
An idea flashed into her mind.
She suddenly stood up and subconsciously wanted to look in the direction of Yongning Temple in the palace. However, in the next moment, she held back forcefully. Her body seemed extremely stiff and heavy.
Her heart fell into the endless cold cave, and her whole body was extremely cold.
She knew that if the Demon Sect took action, no matter what she did now, she would not be able to save Rong Yi and others who were meditating in Yongning Temple. The Demon Sect would not give her time to recover.
She still didn't understand why the Demon Sect suddenly took action, but what she was really afraid of at this time and felt that she couldn't bear the consequences was that Lin Yi handed those people over to her, and those people died here.
How did she face Lin Yi and how did she explain to Lin Yi?
…
Yongning Temple is very quiet.
A group of sparrows were flying from the distant streets and landed on an unfinished pagoda.
The wooden beams of this pagoda have not been painted yet and exude the aroma of pine wood.
