Chapter 1456: The "Old Friend" in the Cold Palace
When a large group of people walked out of Yonghe Palace and headed towards Jianfu Palace, Nan Yan happened to be passing by from another road.
Listening to the noisy sound over there, she took a look.
"Wow, it's so lively."
Ran Xiaoyu followed behind her, but did not support her because she was carrying a bundle in each hand. She only glanced over there and said, "My lady, don't just look at them. Be careful of the slippery road."
"Don't worry."
Nan Yan glanced at them a few more times before turning back to walk attentively. Ran Xiaoyu followed behind her and said, "Your Majesty is right. They are indeed all going to Jianfu Palace together today. They want to see what the problem is with Concubine Ning."
Nan Yan said, "It's such a rare opportunity, I won't let it go."
"Then, Madam, how do you think today's incident will end?"
"this--"
Nan Yan thought for a moment, then shook her head and said with a smile, "This question really stumped me."
“…”
"In this harem, except for the one imprisoned in the cold palace, everyone is a shrewd person. It's really hard to tell who will win and who will lose."
“…”
"Let's wait until we get out. Once we get out, the matter should have a conclusion."
"Um."
Ran Xiaoyu nodded, but couldn't help but pause, looking back at the backs of the concubines who were gradually walking away, then looked at Nan Yan's back, and remained silent.
Although Nan Yan has never been interested in Concubine Ning's belly, she is different.
She always thought that if Concubine Ning gave birth to a daughter this time, it would clear Nan Yan's previous grievances.
No matter what Nan Yan said, it didn't matter whether she and Zhu Feng had come to this point today, whether they were innocent or not, or whether they were wronged or not. But in her opinion, the matter still needed to be resolved. Even if it was over, she had to let Zhu Feng know clearly that the imperial concubine's heart was only broken, but it had never changed.
She witnessed all the pain Nan Yan had gone through.
She wanted Zhu Feng to know too!
More importantly,
"Xiaoyu?"
Nan Yan turned around and saw her stopped there, and whispered, "Why don't you leave?"
Ran Xiaoyu immediately said, "Yes."
He followed again carrying his bag.
On the other side, there was a crowd of people, bustling about as they headed towards Jianfu Palace, while the two people on this side were walking deeper and deeper into the dark, feeling colder and colder until they arrived at that familiar place, where the door was ajar.
The cold palace became even more deserted after the snow.
As soon as the door opened, they felt a chill that made them both shiver involuntarily.
There were still people clearing the snow on the road outside, but no one was clearing the snow inside. The snow that had fallen overnight had piled up thickly, almost reaching people's ankles. Looking around, everything was white.
Nan Yan couldn't stand the cold and coughed twice.
Ran Xiaoyu immediately stepped forward: "My Lady?"
Nan Yan smiled and said, "Don't worry, I'm fine."
As he spoke, he reached out and gathered the wind cloak on his body, wrapped himself tightly, and then walked inside with Ran Xiaoyu.
They also lived in the cold palace for a long time and were very familiar with the roads here.
After a while, I saw the row of houses in front.
They lived there before.
The room next to it was also very familiar. It was where Qin Ruolan lived when she was in the cold palace.
But later, after she left the cold palace, she became deserted. But this time she was sent to the cold palace again, so naturally she returned there. From a distance, Nan Yan saw a figure swaying in the window.
However, she did not move forward.
Because she saw the room on the other side, which was where she lived before.
Just one glance, and the memories of the previous suffering seemed to come back to her mind in an instant, and the pain returned to her heart. Nan Yan stopped and couldn't help frowning.
I realized that I was not as tolerant as I thought.
She said to Ran Xiaoyu, "You can deliver the things over there."
Ran Xiaoyu looked at her: "My Lady, you're not going?"
"I—I don't want to see her."
"Hey, I've said it before, why did the queen do this? She treated you like that before, and you still gave her clothes."
Nan Yan said calmly: "Since I saved her, she naturally needs to survive well, otherwise it would be in vain. I just, I just suddenly don't want to see her."
"Then I will go over. Madam, you——"
"I'll wait here."
"Then the servant will be back soon."
"Um."
Nan Yan watched her leave and stood there for a while. The surroundings were covered with snow and the cold air was pressing. She suddenly felt a little cold and hurriedly walked around in circles in the snow to prevent herself from freezing.
After taking two steps, I saw a set of footprints on the white snow behind the houses.
And this place seems to have few people coming and going.
Who walked here?
Nan Yan was a little curious, so she followed the footprints and walked around for a long time. She could hardly tell where she was going. When she looked up, she saw a very dilapidated thatched house behind a group of dry trees in the distance.
here it is--
Nan Yan was wondering when suddenly a scream came from the front.
A figure ran over from the front.
It seemed to be a ragged woman with tangled hair, and her appearance was completely unclear. Behind her were several strong maids, shouting loudly: "Don't let her run away, catch her quickly!"
Seeing that person rushing towards her, Nan Yan subconsciously reached out and grabbed her.
"you--"
The man also raised his head and looked at Xiang Nanyan.
Suddenly, both of them were stunned.
The next moment, Nan Yan gasped, staring at the man in front of her in disbelief. Several maids behind her hurriedly ran up to grab the man, and when they saw Nan Yan, they were also startled: "Your Highness? Why are you here?"
“…”
Nan Yan was still immersed in shock and couldn't speak for a long time.
Several maids knelt down hurriedly and said, "We have offended the Empress. Please forgive us."
“…”
Nan Yan still didn't say anything, but looked at the person who had her hands handcuffed behind her back and was forced to kneel in the snow. She was looking up at her and laughing.
The originally charming face was now covered with mud and snow foam.
And those eyes.
Nan Yan still remembered that when she first saw those eyes, she had marveled at their deep features, which were full of exotic charm. But at this moment, they just seemed crazy and frantic. She looked at herself for a while and suddenly burst into laughter.
"Your Majesty! Your Majesty! Hahahaha!"
Several maids were afraid that she would say something, so they rushed forward to cover her mouth. Someone even grabbed a handful of snow and stuffed it into her mouth. The person kept struggling and growling like a beast.
“That’s enough!”
Nan Yan finally couldn't hold back anymore and spoke.
The maids suddenly didn't dare to move.
Nan Yan squatted down, looking into the disheveled face and frantic eyes, and said with difficulty: "How did you become like this?"
“…”
"Feng Shu?"
