Qingyin glanced at the white lantern hanging on the door. Apart from the palace, there were only barren mountains and forests around.
Also a little... not so calm.
She thought it was shabby, old, and deserted.
I never thought it would be eerie.
At this moment, the gate of Yonghe Palace suddenly opened slowly. The heavy and slow sound made people's hair stand on end.
Qingshuang moved lightly and quickly came to Qingyin's side.
When the door was fully opened, they saw several eunuchs and palace maids filing out. They breathed a sigh of relief. The head maid hurried forward and saluted, "The Empress Dowager has arrived. I am sorry for not coming to greet you. Knowing you were coming, I have cleaned the mansion. I will take you to rest now."
Qingyin nodded.
After entering the Lama Temple, Qingshuang was even more frightened. The whole palace was filled with lanterns.
This one is nothing special, but it's all white.
The evening breeze blew, and the lanterns swayed gently in the wind, which was creepy no matter how you looked at it.
When the two finally arrived at the rest room, the furnishings inside were all white.
Thinking about this, the imperial tomb is not far behind.
Qingshuang's goose bumps never went away.
"This must be Madam Qing, I have already prepared your room. Please follow me."
Qingshuang didn't have time to think about it and subconsciously refused, "No, no hurry, I'll sit here with the Queen Mother first, you go down first."
After the others left, the palace maids that Qingyin brought with her started to clean up on their own.
Qingshuang took Qingyin's arm and said, "Little sister, I know you must be scared. Let me sleep with you tonight."
Qingyin smiled and said, "No, I'm not afraid."
"No, you are afraid." Qingshuang replied.
Just as Qingyin was about to speak, Qingshuang interrupted her, "It's decided. Xiaoying, go get my pillow."
Qingyin shook her head and laughed, wondering who was scared.
This night.
Qingshuang didn't dare to go anywhere and stayed close to Qingyin.
But in the middle of the night, she was still awakened by the howling wind and some strange noises. Although she was awake, she didn't dare to open her eyes.
I’m afraid that once I open my eyes, I’ll see something I shouldn’t see.
The second day.
Qingyin looked at the dark circles around Qingshuang's eyes and wanted to laugh but held it back.
"Are you so scared?" Qingyin took the soup from the side and handed it to Qiu Shuang.
Qiu Shuang took the soup, her temples aching slightly. She could only quickly drink a mouthful of soup and then put the bowl down. "I slept well last night, but suddenly the wind started to blow in the middle of the night. The sound of the wind was like someone crying. How could I sleep anymore?"
Qingyin finished the soup in her hand and put down the bowl. "It's a desolate mountain and forest here, with no shelter. The wind is naturally loud. After listening to it for a couple of days, you'll get used to it and it will be fine."
"But, there's not only the sound of the wind, I also heard the howling of wolves." Thinking of this, Qiu Shuang shrank back in fear.
"Madam Qing, don't worry. This wolf is afraid of people and won't come near here. As long as you don't go out alone at night, you will be fine."
A servant in the Lama Temple replied.
She was also afraid when she first came here.
But after a few days, you'll get used to it.
The two of them stayed in the Yonghe Palace for five or six days without leaving the house, and Qingshuang felt a little bored.
"Little sister, do you want to go out and take a look?" Qingshuang suddenly became interested and invited.
"Are you not afraid anymore?"
"Tsk! When was I scared? I was just having trouble acclimatizing during those first two days."
Qingyin laughed and said, "Okay! If you're not afraid, I won't go. You shouldn't go too far either. Come back early."
She found that she didn't know whether it was because she was too far away from Nangong Yuan, as the attacks of the poisonous insects had become more and more frequent in the past two days.
Except for the first night I came here, I slept through the whole night.
These days, I wake up in the middle of the night every time.
Sure enough, just as my sister said, the howling wind and the howling wolves made it really difficult to fall asleep.
Qingshuang wanted to persuade her, but when she saw the dark color under Qingyin's eyes, she decided to give up.
As soon as Qingshuang left, Qingyin went to bed to catch up on her sleep.
But he tossed and turned and was always on the verge of falling asleep. Qingyin felt a little irritated and sat up suddenly.
Nangong Yi paused. He didn't expect Qingyin to suddenly sit up at this time.
Qingyin was also confused.
"Xiao Qi, did you notice there's another person in my room?"
[Is there? Let me see...] In less than a second, Qingyin heard a groundhog scream, [Yinyin, why is Nangong Yi here?]
What’s even more terrifying is that it has no idea.
Looking at the garbled characters on the screen, Xiao Qi didn't know whether he should say anything at this time.
「Um, Yinyin……」
Qingyin knew something was wrong when she heard the pause. The corners of her mouth couldn't help but twitch, "You said I can bear it."
Nangong Yi saw Qingyin had discovered him, so he simply said, "Qingniang, long time no see."
Qingyin supported herself on the edge of the bed and stood up, "Prince Su, you barged into my bedroom like this, do you not take me seriously or do you not take the emperor seriously?"
Nangong Yi was just stunned for a moment, and then he suddenly burst into laughter. When he stopped laughing, he said, "Qingniang, you are still so naive, but it's not your fault. I think about it, if I had decisively taken you away that day, the first person you saw would be me."
Qingyin glanced at Nangong Yi and couldn't help but sneered sarcastically, "Nangong Yi, why did you drag my sister into this matter between you and me? If one day she found out that the jade pendant she gave me was filled with poisonous insects, how would you let her deal with it?"
Qingshuang trembled all over.
As soon as she went out, she felt a little panic in her heart for some reason. Thinking of her younger sister's depressed look, she had to quickly walk back.
She didn't expect to hear Nangong Yi's voice as soon as she arrived. She was a little dazed, wondering if she missed him too much and heard it wrong.
But, is the jade pendant that my younger sister is talking about now that jade pendant?
Just as Nangong Yi was about to speak, footsteps were heard outside the door. The two turned their heads and saw a man in black holding Qingshuang's hands and leading her in. "Your Highness, I caught a sneaky person outside."
Qingshuang struggled hard, "Let me go!"
"Let her go." Nangong Yi frowned slightly, "Why are you here?"
Qingshuang lowered her head sadly, "What about you? Why are you here?"
The two people here are confronting each other.
Qingyin was not idle either. She wanted to catch Xiaoqi and give him a beating.
"You kept such an important thing a secret, and kept it a secret for so long. You're jealous of my long life, aren't you?"
Xiao Qi smiled guiltily, "Yinyin, don't worry. I've already reported it for repairs. It will be done very quickly..."
If Qingyin listens carefully, she can tell that the last few words lack confidence at all.
Repair it was reported.
But no one paid any attention to it.
It wasn't that it was hiding it from Yinyin on purpose, the problem was that it couldn't contact the headquarters now, and telling Yinyin would only add to her troubles.
and.
It really thought it would be fine soon...
Woohoo X﹏X
