At night, all the rooms of the Star Moon Tower are lit up, except for the passageway on the top floor, which is shrouded in shadows and remains dark.
At this moment, Yu Qianqian was locked in a guest room. The room was spacious and clean, with everything she needed for food and clothing. It was clear that the thief who had kidnapped her meant her no harm, so she did not feel any sense of danger.
Yu Qianqian sat comfortably on the edge of the bed, leaning against the brocade quilt, a small piece of phoenix tail pastry dangling from her mouth. As she ate, her bright eyes darted around, looking out the window through a light gauze curtain. Facing the window, she saw a crescent moon hanging in the sky. The night looked particularly desolate, and a biting wind howled in through the tiny gaps in the windowpane.
This made her feel that the night was even more frigid than a snowy day, with a chill rarely seen in the room.
Yu Qianqian, who was enjoying herself in bed, was suddenly chilled by a gust of cold wind. She shivered and quickly turned around to hide under the quilt, leaving only her face exposed. She stared wide-eyed at the other world outside the window.
Since learning of the attack, she has been unable to understand why. If she left the palace and gave up her title as empress, she would be at her wit's end. Now she is basically no different from an ordinary citizen. Who is it that hates her so much that they will not let her go even after she has fallen to this state?
Su Yu never expected that she was also in the top-floor pavilion, but this room was located in the most secluded corner of the passageway. The room next door was originally a place to store valuables, so it was extremely difficult to be discovered.
Just as she was huddled timidly under the quilt to avoid the cold, she suddenly heard a loud clap of thunder outside. A cracking sound came from the dark clouds and resounded across the entire sky. Large flakes of snow, like willow catkins, drifted down from the sky with an unstoppable chill.
Yu Qianqian simply covered her head with the blanket, curling up into a small ball like a snail, but at this moment she felt the whole room was getting colder and colder.
At this moment, snow is falling heavily outside the window, accompanied by a biting wind that sweeps across the room. At the same time, the chill inside the room is just as intense, and an inescapable, eerie coldness assails you like a nightmare, reaching every corner.
Yu Qianqian wrapped herself tightly in the brocade quilt, got out of bed timidly, and slowly moved to the window, lifting the corner of the quilt with each step. She inexplicably felt that being in this room was even colder than being outside.
Immediately afterwards, Yu Qianqian peeked outside and, before she could look away, she was shocked to see several hands of different sizes pressed against the window!
Faced with this sudden situation, her first reaction was not to avoid it, but to boldly lean closer to the window. Gradually, as several hands kept grabbing and reaching out at the window frame, several men in gray uniforms silently entered her field of vision like dark clouds looming overhead!
The matter was urgent, and she didn't have time to think about who the other person was or what their purpose was in sneaking up here at night. Seeing that she was completely exposed to the other person, Yu Qianqian's heart suddenly tightened. She quickly pulled the quilt and threw it towards the window, and then ran towards the exit.
