Chapter 429 You Explain to Her
"I had just entered the palace and was in a bad mood, so I dismissed the palace servants and went out for a walk. I didn't expect to end up here while walking."
"It was summer, and it was so hot here, but it was unusually cold. Even the bright sunshine couldn't get in. It was like two different worlds."
"After that, I didn't dare go in anymore. I went back the same way and was picked up by a passing palace maid. I even asked the palace maid about it, but she was hesitant and just said that this place was very strange and told me not to come around here unless necessary."
"Tsk tsk, I've been keeping this in mind for so many years, I didn't expect that I can finally go in and take a look now."
"Ruo'er, you may not know this, but I've always loved new things, and I'm incredibly curious about things like this. Let's go! I just saw you gesture. Did they lose sight of us? We can walk around now, right?"
Bu Ruo sighed: "Yes, as long as you don't drop things or bump into people, they won't be able to hear you even if you speak. Only the three of us can hear and see each other."
The Queen rubbed her hands excitedly. "That's wonderful! How could there be such a magical person like you in this world? I'm so lucky. Tell me, why didn't you come to Beining earlier? If you had come a few years earlier, wouldn't I have suffered less?"
"This shabby palace, I don't want to stay here for even a single day...ah!"
The little girl covered her face, too embarrassed to look at someone walking backwards and tripping over the stairs...
"Aunt Queen, my barrier can only prevent others from seeing and hearing us, but it can't stop us from committing suicide~"
The Queen stood up and patted her skirt, a blush of embarrassment flashing across her face. "Yes, Aunt Queen knows. Aunt Queen usually has to pay attention to her manners and even follow the rules when eating. It's been a long time since she came out to play like this, and she was a little excited for a moment."
"No, I won't be in a while."
Bu Ruo shook her head and walked inside with the two of them. The queen watched herself being pulled through the wall by the other party... The excited screams almost pierced their eardrums.
"Ruo... Ruo'er, did you also pass through the wall like this when you came to Fengyi Palace to find me? This... Tell me the truth, you are a fairy, right? Passing through walls... Even wizards can't do this."
The little girl nodded seriously: "Aunt Queen, my mother can indeed be considered a fairy, but how do you know that wizards can't walk through walls?"
The Queen chuckled, "A few years ago, that wizard had some kind of illness. After a Mid-Autumn Festival banquet, he saw someone and chased after them. The person ran too fast, and he ran into the wall without stopping. I saw this when I was sobering up in the garden."
"Ruo'er, let me tell you something. Beining's harem is quite interesting. If you want to know something, just go out and have a look around in the middle of the night. If you hang around for a few days, you'll definitely run into someone and learn some unknown secrets."
The little girl was curious: "Aunt Queen, you must have known a lot of things that others don't know over the years. Come on, tell Bu Bu about it. Come on, Aunt Queen, hold Bu Bu in your arms, and let's talk while we walk."
The queen smiled and picked up the little girl, walking carefully for fear of dropping her: "Queen aunt, let me tell you, this harem is boring. We have to find something fun to do on our own."
"Aunt Queen has learned a lot of interesting things in the past few years, all from eavesdropping."
"When Concubine Wu was still a beauty, she had an affair with an imperial guard. She had miscarriages every time she got pregnant over the years because none of her children were born to Lao Deng."
"Princess Su's activities were even more extravagant. Not only did she have an affair with the guards, she also had an affair with the eunuchs in her palace. The key point was that the eunuchs also had an affair with the maids in her palace. It really opened my eyes."
"And the Third Prince back then, he slept with who knows how many of Lao Deng's women. He slept with several of them almost every time the Emperor selected a concubine. Tsk tsk."
"Also, the chief eunuch who always followed Old Deng fell in love with a maid in Concubine Rou's palace and wanted to have sex with her. The maid disagreed, and then she died inexplicably. This must have been done by the chief eunuch. It's true that the master is like the servant."
"Also, Old Deng doesn't have a prince anymore. I heard that before you came, the Emperor not only turned over Concubine Li's name, but also had Concubine Zhao and Concubine Zhang taken over... Old Deng didn't even attend the morning court the next day."
"besides……"
Bu Ruo held her forehead with her hand: "My Queen sister, are you talking about things that a child can listen to? Bu Bu is only three years old..."
The queen coughed awkwardly and said, "Yes, it's my fault. Unless the women in the harem die, they will never be able to leave the palace in their lifetime. This is the only thing left."
"No more, no more, let's talk about it in private some other day."
The little girl was unhappy when she heard this: "Aunt Queen, what Bu Bu can understand is just a fight, Bu Bu understands it."
"But...if we fight, we fight. What does it mean to eat together?"
Queen: ...
Bu Ruo: ...
"Okay, let me tell you. Now it's all right. Explain it to her."
The Queen's face flushed red. "That... Dui Shi, Dui Shi means... that is... Hey? Bu Bu, do you hear someone talking in front? It's in the room at the innermost corner, right?"
As expected, the little girl's attention was drawn away. She tilted her head and listened carefully: "Mom, it seems to be true. Aunt Queen's ears are really good, even better than Xiaobai's."
Queen: "Who is Xiaobai?"
Bu Ruo: "The little white wolf that Bu Bu raised."
Queen: ...
The three of them walked over openly, while the two adults and one child stood under the window and eavesdropped.
"The master has been in seclusion since he came back last time. It will probably take another month for him to come out. I can't do anything about what you said. I came here this time after knocking Songzhu unconscious. Concubine Rou's death was a big blow to him. As long as he is awake, he will kill people."
"Then... what should we do, Miss Luoyang? You've been following the master all the time, so you have to think of a solution. The regent princess from the Great Zhou is too evil. I can't defeat her with my skills."
The wizard paced back and forth in the room anxiously. "I also heard that the regent of the Great Zhou has ill intentions. If Beining is conquered and becomes the territory of the Great Zhou, then all our plans over the years will be ruined."
"If we want to regain control of that plane, we must rely on the people of Beining or the entire army of the Three Kingdoms. Only if they all practice our skills, can we bring them back or open the plane's barrier in the future and have the strength to fight."
