People who came in through the courtyard gate stopped in their tracks.
I saw a stunningly beautiful young woman, holding a delicate flower petal in her hand and chewing on it.
The scene was pleasing to the eye, but the maid's pained gaze inexplicably evoked a sense of desolation.
Especially considering how dilapidated the surrounding environment is.
She was once second only to the emperor in terms of food, clothing, and daily necessities.
Now it has fallen to this state.
It truly evokes a sense of sorrow and pity.
A hint of reluctance also appeared in Grandpa Gao's eyes.
Before the group arrived at the Cold Palace.
I had heard that someone had instructed the eunuchs to take good care of Consort Liu.
Consort Liu must have suffered a lot in the Cold Palace.
A feeling of suffocation welled up in the emperor's heart.
"emperor?!!"
The flower-wielding man thought he was seeing things.
The sound seemed to startle the girl.
The girl, whose beauty was still undeniable despite her tattered clothes, turned around, her bright, watery eyes looking towards the courtyard entrance.
Their eyes met in mid-air.
Puyang Tang's exceptionally handsome face was expressionless, his expression unreadable, and he exuded an innate nobility and majesty.
A handsome and dashing young man, he should be the beloved of a young lady in her boudoir.
Unfortunately, his reputation as a tyrant made women keep their distance.
Everyone who saw the boy was terrified, fearing that the emperor might kill him at the slightest provocation.
He was drenched in cold sweat from handling the flowers.
Why would the emperor end up in the Cold Palace?
Could it be that they discovered that the Imperial Concubine had left the Cold Palace without permission?
Nonghua knelt down with a thud, her body trembling.
"Greetings, Your Majesty."
Aside from kneeling during acting, Fu Sang had never knelt before anyone else.
I felt a little nervous when I saw Puyang Tang again.
As a concubine in the cold palace, she met the emperor.
Should one project an image of aloofness or appear pitiful and helpless?
"Your Majesty," she called softly.
The girl's voice was naturally soft and charming, like a small brush teasing one's chest, bringing a slightly ticklish sensation.
Puyang Tang gazed at the stunningly beautiful girl.
The boy's dark eyes revealed no emotion, as if he were examining a small object.
The air became stagnant.
No one dared to breathe loudly.
Even Eunuch Gao couldn't fathom the emperor's thoughts.
Consort Liu's use of witchcraft is a serious crime. If the Consort is to be released from the Cold Palace, a reason must be found to silence public opinion.
but.
No one in the world dares to disobey the emperor.
The emperor can release it whenever he wants.
So, what was the Emperor really thinking?
A short while later.
Puyang Tang strode towards the girl under the peach tree.
The maid kneeling beside the girl trembled like a leaf.
"Your Majesty..."
When she spoke, she stuttered and her voice trembled.
"Please... investigate thoroughly... Her Highness the Imperial Concubine truly did not curse you..."
Puyang Tang stopped and looked at the palace maid.
The flower-handling man was so scared that he was covered in sweat.
"Your Majesty...please release the Imperial Concubine from the Cold Palace...the eunuchs here are bullying her..."
The maidservant cried and complained.
"Waaaaah... Her Majesty is sick..."
The poor empress was so hungry she ate flowers.
Puyang Tang frowned slightly and turned his handsome face to the side.
Is what she said true?
Grandpa Gao quickly stepped forward.
"Your Majesty, what the palace maid said is indeed true."
The Cold Palace was originally a place of abandonment, and throughout history, very few concubines had ever escaped from it.
Those despicable people love to bully the abandoned concubines in the cold palace.
That's why Consort Liu became such a sickly beauty, as if a gust of wind could blow her away.
The young emperor gave the order in a cold tone.
"Kill him!"
