The north wind was howling, and heavy rain was falling in the dark night. A figure was running outside at the speed of lightning.
Fang Jinlan ran outside as fast as she could, but just as she stepped out of the door of the Hehuan Palace, she tripped and fell. She didn't dare to hesitate for a moment, and quickly got up from the ground and ran forward.
"Sister, open the door." Fang Jinlan ran all the way to the gate of Yikun Palace before she knelt down with weak knees.
She ran for so long that she didn't even know when her shoes were gone. I stood barefoot on the ground, freezing cold all over.
Fang Jinlan held the door knocker with both hands. Seeing that the person inside didn't respond, she knocked hard several times: "Sister, it's me."
"Open the door quickly, elder sister, open the door quickly."
There were knocks on the door one after another, followed by loud banging, which finally forced the person inside to come out.
"Who is it, so late at night?" The young eunuch opened the door cursing while holding a lantern. When he saw Fang Jinlan at the door, he was so scared that he dropped the lantern in his hand.
"Second Miss?"
The lantern fell to the ground and shattered into pieces. Fang Jinlan staggered to her feet, but her knees went weak and she fainted.
Yikun Palace suddenly became lively.
Fang Jinlan was carried into the house one after another by several palace maids.
She was badly injured, and several palace maids couldn't help but scream.
The noise was so loud that even the sleeping Concubine Shu was called out of her bed.
"What happened?"
It was raining heavily outside, and Concubine Shu Guipin refused to let anyone in when she heard the noise.
Just through the door, the eunuch outside the room said intermittently: "The second young lady is here, and she is covered with wounds."
"He is unconscious now. Would you like to go and see him, madam?"
"You said Fang Jinlan is here?" Shu Guipin thought she had misheard and almost fell off the bed.
Zhou Linghai behind her reached out and comforted her in time.
Shu Guipin lowered her head and gave Zhou Linghai a warning look, and Zhou Linghai let go of her hand: "Are you sure the second young lady is here?"
The sound of rain outside was too loud, and Concubine Shu began to feel uneasy.
Why would Chen Fu let someone come?
Given Chen Fu's personality, Fang Jinlan was targeting someone close to her, so how could she let Jinlan go?
"It's the second young lady. She is in her own room now." The trembling voice of the little eunuch sounded at the door.
"Madam, would you like to go and have a look?"
Shu Guipin went after all.
She stood in Fang Jinlan's room, with a thick cloak draped behind her.
The cape was made last year, and the rolled fur on it has long lost its luster.
It's just that she has a good figure, and without the elaborate makeup on her face, her plain face is still dazzling.
Fang Jinlan lay on the bed, looking at her elder sister's delicate face.
The flickering candlelight was swaying slightly, as if a bit of charm could be seen from that face.
Thinking of this, Fang Jinlan immediately shook her head.
No way, it must be Concubine Zhao who is talking nonsense. How could her eldest sister do such a vile thing?
"Why are you staring at me like this?" Fang Jinlan has been staring at Concubine Shu since she entered the room.
His delicate eyebrows subconsciously frowned, and he looked at Fang Jinlan with a probing look in his eyes: "Empress Zhao sent someone to take you away, how did you get here?"
I subconsciously blocked out the thoughts in my head.
Fang Jinlan subconsciously wanted to open her mouth to ask, but for some reason the words she was about to say changed: "It was me, I escaped."
What she originally wanted to ask turned out to be like this.
Fang Jinlan didn't dare to think about it too much, wondering why the words she was about to ask changed when they reached her lips.
