"Have you guys completed a thorough investigation of this person? Are you sure it's that crazy, idiotic person?"
"Yes, we have already checked this person out. We have confirmed that he escaped from the cold palace. According to the deadline, he should have arrived. He must have found that no one was there to pick him up, so he sneaked out on his own."
“Why is no one answering?”
"Well... think about it, the master is dead, and this servant has to stay in this cold palace. Besides, the things he was given were not enough, so how could he expect to get out?"
He twisted his fingers while saying this. It was obvious that he was here to ask for money. Besides, in this palace, even having food was a problem, not to mention money. How could he come up with money if he couldn't even eat?
"Go to the cold palace and check. As for this person, I will send him away first."
Bai Qi raised the stick in his hand and went straight down. The maid fell to the ground in a daze, and there was something stuck on her body, which made people feel disgusted.
Bai Qi simply picked up the man's clothes and started walking towards the compartment next to the Imperial Hospital. In order to find out the cause of the disease, he had to see what disease the man had.
So the two men split up, one went to the cold palace and the other went to the Imperial Hospital.
But when the group of people who were going to the cold palace entered the cold palace, a eunuch suddenly rushed out. The eunuch looked no different from others, but as soon as he opened his mouth, they realized something was wrong.
The group of guards took two steps back, and cold sweats broke out on their backs. They had to wonder what was wrong with this guy. He looked so scary.
But when the eunuch opened his mouth, he found that most of his teeth were gone. After that, he simply grabbed their sleeves and knelt down and kowtowed.
The voice on the bluestone slab sounded extremely heartbreaking.
"Stop knocking."
“Let…let me out.”
Because the eunuch had no teeth, it was very difficult for him to speak, and he could only finish this sentence haltingly.
"You...how did you do this?"
This was the first time the guard had seen such a thing, and he was shocked to find that the cold palace was indeed so terrifying.
They were just recent graduates who came to the imperial city to serve as guards, and most of them came because they admired Bai Qi. It must be said that he was a legendary figure, and naturally no one could afford to offend him.
They were actually getting further and further away while guarding the gate.
"These...the women in the cold palace are like demons. They said I couldn't speak, so they pulled out my teeth bit by bit, telling me not to speak anymore."
?
What a strange punishment. I have to say that there are so many women in the cold palace... They walked deeper into their destination, but they were stunned and looked at the big brother who was leading them.
"Brother, are you serious?"
"Yes, it's right here. What's wrong?"
"...Is this where those women live? I wonder what's so different about this place besides looking like a doghouse. Besides, look at this sticky stuff on the ground, I don't know what it is... Where are the people in this palace?"
The guard was a newcomer and started to follow the procedures with his senior brothers. Unexpectedly, he was beaten up as soon as he said this.
"Do you know where this is? How dare you say that? Believe it or not, I'll tear your mouth apart."
The guard suddenly shut up. Although this was the cold palace, it was still within the imperial palace. Besides, the palace was full of the emperor's spies. If the secret was really leaked, they would be dead.
"Wrong, wrong, thanks for the reminder, seniors."
As soon as this eunuch spoke, his toothless mouth had an inexplicably hollow quality to it. It gave people goosebumps.
"Um... this should be the servant you are looking for."
"A maid ran away from you?"
"Yes, she ran away two days ago. I heard that she was very skilled in martial arts. Two years ago, for some unknown reason, she went crazy. As a result, not only her, but everyone in the palace went crazy. They all jumped into the well and committed suicide."
This is no small matter.
Before the new guard could say anything, the group of senior brothers covered the man's mouth with one hand and pushed him behind his back. Then an old hand appeared with his usual expression.
"Are you sure? That person has been found out, but there's something wrong. If you blindly admit it, you'll be involved in the consequences."
"Why...why did the official say that? Besides, this book is just on this table. Even after he became stupid, he still liked to draw. Look at what's on this book..."
But this book has indeed been discontinued since a few days ago.
There is no trace of drawing further down.
"This maidservant personally killed the Queen's beloved cat. I heard that if she's caught, she'll be sentenced to death. Besides, anyone involved in this will be killed. Are you sure she's connected?"
Everyone was stunned when this was said.
However, I have to say that I don’t know whether this eunuch is not afraid of being framed by you because he has a strong psychological quality or because there is really no connection between the two.
He just smiled no matter what happened.
And this toothless mouth and these empty nostrils look really... creepy.
"Well, in that case, you just wait here. We'll just go in and search as a matter of routine. After all, you know, we're afraid something might happen."
"I understand, I understand. Please continue your investigation, sir."
Otherwise, it is rare for an official to emerge from the cold palace. Not long after, some people began to look at him, and there was a hint of scrutiny in the excited eyes of these people.
The group of guards felt like they were monkeys in a zoo being watched by this group of people.
"What are you looking at?"
As soon as the old man spoke, the group of people all retreated. Perhaps it was because the news was too serious, so some people still began to peek, but...
It wasn't until the group of people realized that the man was not planning to execute the eunuch but to take him away that things were no longer as simple as they seemed.
"You... Sir, what are you planning to do?!"
"Send it out. Didn't you see it? Besides, our boss wants it. What are you doing?"
If it weren't for the fact that he knew this concubine and she wasn't someone he disliked back then, he would probably have just slapped her twice.
I have to say that the cold palace is really harmful. Look at this dirty face. Who would believe that this person came from this palace and was sent to the cold palace only two or three years ago?
"Send it out... Then can you help us send it out... He has seen His Majesty before."
