Bai Chi instinctively turned around, but his view was blocked by the palace wall. Then he remembered with a frown that Xiao Hei was probably not talking about Fan Yunxiao seeing him now.
Pretending nothing had happened, he looked away and asked, "Did he find out about the cold palace?"
"Well, she's the only male concubine in the palace who has reached adulthood. You'll know once you ask her."
It’s almost like saying the oldest male concubine.
Although she came of age at the age of twenty, she was no match for the other male concubines, the oldest of whom was only eighteen or nineteen years old!
Bai Chi even suspected that the real reason why the original owner was sent to the cold palace was probably not because she offended a noble, but because she was old and the emperor was annoyed by her.
After all, she just accidentally bumped into a palace maid, and the tea in the maid's hand spilled on the noble lady's skirt. The emperor who happened to see it scolded her and sent her directly to the cold palace.
After trying hard to recall, the original owner was extremely terrified, but at the same time, he saw the shocked expression on the nobleman's face out of the corner of his eye.
She probably didn't expect the emperor to react so strongly.
But there was no need to tease Fan Yunxiao at this moment. Bai Chi didn't react much to the issue of age. After listening to what Xiao Hei said, he just nodded slightly.
"It would be strange if he couldn't ask, but I remember that the prince had to move out of the palace when he was fifteen, but he joined the army at the age of fifteen. Does he have a residence outside the palace now?"
"Some owners, but it's not the prince's mansion, it's the general's mansion."
Bai Chi snorted. The old emperor was a coward. He wanted to completely cut off Fan Yunxiao's possibility of succeeding to the throne.
Therefore, he was not made a king, nor was he granted a prince's or royal palace. Instead, he was directly made a general.
I almost said that I don't want this son anymore, and forget about him in the prince's palace or the royal palace. With this ability, he is only capable of being a general.
But the next second, Bai Chi chuckled again: "I'm afraid the old man has forgotten that military power is much more important than other things."
But there is no need to rush now. Bai Chi calmed down and prepared to see what is hidden in this hidden palace in front of him.
As soon as I walked out from behind the flowers, I saw several people in strange costumes walking out of the palace.
"Master, I've checked. These are wizards from a small border country. I just don't know what they're doing here. In the entire palace, it seems that only the old emperor interacts with them."
As they walked towards each other, those people couldn't see Bai Chi, and Bai Chi couldn't understand what they were saying. They just mumbled in a very strange language.
But Bai Chi didn't care and went straight into the palace.
I was just watching the video yesterday and found that there were many strange things in this palace, such as medicinal herbs, alchemy furnaces, insects, etc.
When I entered, the first thing that hit me was the smell of medicinal herbs mixed with a strange fishy odor, a bit like...
"Master, that looks like blood."
Xiao Hei stood on Bai Chi's shoulder, with his paw pointing at a large basin in front.
The washbasin was as big as the washbasin, and the strong fishy smell came from it. Bai Chi immediately held his breath and strode over.
Then he breathed a sigh of relief. The basin was very large, but there was not much blood. There was only a bowl in it, and there was half a bowl of blood in the bowl.
However, the smell of this blood is too fishy. It must be because something else was added to it. It is not just the smell of blood.
There was no one in the palace. It was covered with black cloth and all the doors and windows were closed. It was very quiet in the palace, so the rustling sound could be heard clearly.
It comes from the bugs in the jars, and most of them are poisonous.
The darkness did not block Bai Chi's vision. He slowly searched for flaws in the palace and soon found a thick stack of notes in the corner, and they were written in the language of this dynasty.
Bai Chi had just picked it up and flipped through two pages when Xiao Hei, who was standing on his shoulder, exclaimed in surprise.
"The elixir of immortality? Young men and women? The blood of lovemaking?"
Xiao Hei was shocked. He recognized these characters one by one, but why was it difficult to understand them when they were put together?
"Oh my god, Master, what the hell are they doing?"
Bai Chi also frowned. After quickly looking through the information, he took out a pen and paper to copy it again, and then threw the notes back to their place.
"As expected, my guess was correct. The old emperor's selection of concubines was simply a cover for his evil deeds. His real purpose was actually this."
He shook the copied thing in his hand and then stuffed it into his sleeve pocket.
Speaking of which, this set of clothes was the same one that Fan Yunxiao changed him into last night.
Bai Chi searched around here again and found something new.
After finding what he wanted, Bai Chi left quickly. He really didn't want to stay in this place any longer.
Going straight back to the cold palace, in the yard outside, Su Yao was still chatting with others, talking about her plans enthusiastically.
She planted vegetables here and flowers there, and also begged several sisters with connections to help her get some tools for digging the ground.
After all, vegetable seeds can be prepared in advance and hidden on the body, but hoes and other things cannot be carried.
Su Yao is much more eloquent than the original owner. Of course, the main reason is that Su Yao is also a woman, and she is more natural when interacting with others.
Coupled with her positive attitude towards life, it is indeed easy to infect others.
Bai Chi withdrew his thoughts and began to review the clues known so far.
He was banished to the cold palace. Now it seems that it had nothing to do with offending a noble. It was simply because he was over the age limit and was not within the range of choice for the dog emperor.
Su Yao was banished to the cold palace because she accidentally scratched the emperor, but Su Yao said that she secretly opened her eyes while serving the emperor in bed, and was seen by the emperor.
According to Su Yao, all those who serve in the bed must have their eyes covered with black cloth, and they cannot speak or make any small movements during the whole process.
This was something the nanny had specifically reminded me of before I went to bed with her, and she also said that those who disobeyed would have no good end.
Su Yao didn't want to sleep with the emperor, and she had heard several times before that those who were disobedient during the sleep were banished to the cold palace.
That's why she prepared seeds in advance, intending to take these vegetable seeds to the cold palace to fend for herself.
According to her, the emperor is an old man and doesn't seem to have much time left. Once the old emperor dies, the beauties in the harem who have not slept with him will be released from the palace and return home.
But she didn't expect that she would be silenced.
And looking at it again today, apart from her, the last person to arrive in this cold palace was Bai Chi two years ago.
But in the past two years, many people have indeed been banished to the cold palace. Where are those people now?
It’s terrifying when you think about it.
Not thinking is also scary.
And what did Su Yao see?
She said that she secretly loosened the black cloth a little, and then through the gap, she saw that there was more than one old emperor in the emperor's bedroom.
There was also a young man who was also blindfolded, and a person with strange totems all over his face that made people feel cold.
The old emperor, on the other hand, sat in the distance, hunched over.
It didn't seem like he wanted his concubines to sleep with him, but rather like they were watching from afar.
