Chapter 23 The warmth of the cold palace
I picked up the bowl of iced bird's nest, sniffed it, and then put it down with a thud.

Sure enough, the palace is full of traps.

"What kind of poison is it?" Qin Changge came over and smelled it, but he couldn't smell it.

Hua Jianli pursed her lips, "It's a medicine that makes people dull, but it won't hurt their lives."

"Where is the person who just sent something?" Qin Changge asked.

"Already gone!" Qing Feng replied.

Seeing that Hua Jianli was still deep in thought, Qin Changge wondered, "What did you think of?"

Hua Jianli said nothing, but picked up the bowl again and smelled it. The smell...

Why give her the feeling that she has eaten and smelled it.

She was sure that she had never eaten it. It was the sense left by the original owner. Could it be that the original owner had eaten it?
Queen...

Prime Minister's Mansion...

It seems that there is really a queen behind this matter.

Now that the entire palace is under the control of the queen, it is indeed difficult to deal with her.

"I wonder if this bowl of bird's nest was originally given to the imperial concubine by the empress, but someone down there made a mistake and sent it to me?"

Qin Changge smiled jokingly, his beautiful facial features would drown a person to death, "It's possible!"

"Hey, it's a pity that a little girl can't enjoy such a delicious thing..." She looked regretful.

"If you can't bear it, then don't bear it, Qinglin, send this bowl of bird's nest to the cold palace, and give it to the noble concubine in the name of the fourth prince..." Qin Changge said.

"Subordinate, go now!" Qinglin said nothing, picked up the bowl and disappeared in a flash.

……

noon.

It is the hottest time of the day, and the cicadas are hiding in the big trees, chirping loudly, making the already irritable people even more irritable.

Therefore, Sunshine will not treat anyone differently, whether you are a commoner or a royal family member.

The palace maid occasionally moves around, but she always comes and goes in a hurry, staying as long as she can, for fear that the next moment, she will become a roast pig.

Leng Gong.

It is the most shabby, remote and smelly place in the entire palace.

In Jiang Lan's eyes, the Cold Palace is a place where countless women's grievances, curses, and deaths accumulate. It is like a bottomless abyss or a hell, with rancid, humid air and silence.

Suddenly, something ran past her feet, and she subconsciously stamped her feet. It turned out to be a mouse.

"Ah..." she exclaimed, "Someone, come quickly!"

In the past, the palace maids would have appeared quickly to help her drive away these disgusting things, but now, no matter how loudly she screamed, no one showed up.

The mouse was so frightened by her scream that it couldn't find its own burrow. It squawked around and finally ran out the door.

call!Pat your chest.

Sitting down on the wooden bed, the wooden board creaked. She jumped up again and looked around to see how many terrifying things there were.

After looking at it for a long time, there was no other living thing except the mouse just now. The air was full of fine dust, flying freely around her.

How is this different from a dungeon?

Will she never get out?
From now on, she will be alone and cold, just like all the women who have been here, waiting for death or going crazy...

No, no!
"I don't want to live here, no! Ah Jin, save me, save me, is there anyone? Come here..."

As if God heard her prayer, an old woman in gray clothes with a wrinkled face and no apparent age appeared at the door.

"Stop being so whiny, behave yourself when you come here, and don't cause any trouble!"

"How presumptuous, this is your attitude when talking to me, you have to say it yourself!" Her face turned cold, and the noble concubine put on her airs.

"Who are you being so arrogant with?" the old grandma yelled loudly, her old bark-like face was not kind at all... her voice was louder and younger than hers.

Jiang Lan was scolded so much that she didn't dare to say a word. The old woman opened her mouth wide, revealing jagged yellow teeth, like a man-eating demon.

"I'm telling you, when you come to Leng Palace, you should be at peace with me. This is not your place. What you eat and drink in the future depends on my mood. Don't offend me. I will starve you for three days and three nights." Let’s see what you do!”

"Take it!" The old nanny raised the bowl in her hand. Someone just sent this to you, saying that the fourth prince ordered it to be given to you..."

The mother-in-law placed the bowl of iced bird's nest on the old table.

The fourth prince was kind-hearted and even brought him food.

It tastes pretty good!

If the man hadn't ordered it to be handed over to the imperial concubine, this bowl of top-quality bird's nest would have ended up in his stomach.

"You said this was sent by the fourth prince?" Jiang Lan felt joy in her heart.

"That's what the person who brought it here said... Just be at peace after eating. The old lady doesn't have time to stare at you..." Grandma yawned, then turned and left.

Wiping the stool, he sat at the table with a look of disgust on his face, picked up the iced bird's nest, took two sips and put it down.

no appetite.

In the stuffy room, she faced the sky with her bare face. The palace maid's hair was loose and loose. A few strands of disobedient hair fell to her ears because of her tiny movements, adding a touch of sexy temptation to her already beautiful face...

Her clothes were half-uncovered, and the mountain peaks were looming. Even though the cold palace was shady, the sweat flowed from her forehead down her cheeks and into the mountains.

This scene was fully visible to the man who had just pushed the door open. He swallowed inadvertently, turned around and closed the door.

The woman ran over happily. She was a mature woman, but she smiled brightly like a little girl. Then she pursed her lips and said, "Why are you here!"

The man stared at her quietly, affectionately, and reached out to touch her delicate cheek, "You have suffered."

As soon as he left, he found that he was being followed by his mother's people. In order to get rid of that person, he deliberately left towards the palace gate. When the person returned, he took a shortcut to see her, which wasted time.

He explained to Jiang Lan and she was relieved.

"Ajin, I don't want to stay here, please take me away, okay?" She only had him.

Looking closely, the left side of the woman's face is still a little red and swollen, her right wrist is still wrapped in silk cloth, and her face is slightly pale. This morbid beauty is the most distressing.

"Don't worry, I won't let you suffer. I will take you away after I arrange the matters at hand!" Xuanyuan Jin promised.

"What else do you have?" What else is more important than her.

"Lan'er, listen to me. My father ordered me to handle Ah Bi's affairs for up to three days. When I bury Ah Bi, I will come, okay?"

"There are three more days?" She couldn't stay even one day. There were rats here and the ferocious old woman, and she was extremely afraid.

"Don't worry, Abi's death is regarded as a shame by my father, and there will be no grand burial. Three days is already the shortest time, just three days. Can you bear with it?"

"I...okay." She finally agreed.

The man smiled softly, lifted her smooth chin, and kissed her gently on the lips.

The woman did not refuse his intimacy, she even smiled seductively at him and moved closer to him...

There is a faint heady smell on the woman's body.

She didn't refuse and tried her best to cooperate with him.

Then, the man pushed the unfinished bowl of bird's nest aside, making room for her to lay down...

On the other side, Hua Jianli got on Qin Changge's carriage and set off from the palace.

She proved her innocence and was acquitted.

She is going home.

Thinking of that home that had no human touch at all, Hua Jianli had no expectations.
