Chapter 5 Suddenly panicked

It was an hour after Lin Qingran learned about the sealing of the East Palace. She couldn't help but feel lucky that she had made the decision and ran quickly. There must be something wrong with Xiao Heng's coffin, otherwise there would be no need to seal it?
  Furthermore, she was inexplicably alone at that time, and the surroundings were so gloomy that the more she thought about it, the more frightened she became.

Maybe her cheap fiancé died with his eyes open, so it's not impossible for his body to turn into a rice dumpling without rotting. She has encountered such things as wearing a book, and it's not surprising to see a ghost or a rice dumpling.

Perhaps because she had spent a lot of energy today and was frightened, Lin Qingran didn't want anyone to wait on her when she returned to the house, and just stayed behind closed doors.

The servants in the Lin Mansion all felt that Lin Qingran was overly sad because of Xiao Heng's death, especially when she came back, her face was pale and distraught, and she didn't pass on the food. She was obviously so shocked that she couldn't get up, and the maids didn't dare to disturb her. she.

This was convenient for Lin Qingran. She seemed to have a sense of security when she returned to her home. She felt that she was capable again, and her beautiful little life was gradually getting closer.

The original owner loved Xiao Heng deeply, but she had no part in it. She would not embarrass herself by eating well and sleeping well.

It’s true that they didn’t pass on the meal, but it’s also true that they were full of pastries.

Although something happened in the East Palace this time, she still had to think carefully about how to perform tomorrow's play. After all, she was a love brain now, and Xiao Heng came first in everything.

After thinking about it, Lin Qingran took a shower, lay on the bed, yawned, closed her eyes, and fell asleep quickly.

The next day, Lin Qingran got up contentedly and stretched out.

"Miss, why don't you rest a little longer?"

The door was opened, and a maid came in carrying a small basin, her brows full of worry.

Lin Qingran forced a bitter smile, "Shaoyao, don't worry, I'm fine. There's no need to rest. I want to go to the palace to accompany the prince's brother. This is the last time I'll accompany him, but I don't know if I can." Enter the palace."

The person who came was Shaoyao, the original owner's personal maid, who was the same age as the original owner, loyal, but a little naive.

The first person Lin Qingran saw when she first arrived was Shaoyao, and she fooled him without showing any clues.

Of course, you only need to know about the matter of wearing books. You cannot publicize it in a big way, otherwise you will think that there is something wrong with this person's brain.

Now in order to maintain her character of being infatuated with Xiao Heng, she still has to continue acting.

"Miss, the grand master didn't say anything about the situation in the palace. He just asked the servants to inform the young lady. If the young lady wants to accompany His Highness the Crown Prince, just go." Shaoyao replied.

Lin Qingran was stunned for a moment and suddenly panicked.

If the East Palace wasn't closed, why would she still go?

Seeing that Lin Qingran was a little dazed, Shaoyao couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong, young lady? But why would you like to be able to accompany His Highness the Crown Prince again?"

"Well, you are right, I will enter the palace after I have packed up." Lin Qingran was about to cry but had no tears.

After washing up, Lin Qingran put on a haggard look on her face. Her beloved was dead, so she couldn't eat and drink enough and sleep well. She had to show that she couldn't sleep all night last night.

Not long after, Lin Qingran walked out of the yard, got on the carriage and entered the palace alone.

The servants in the Lin Mansion were talking a lot. Now everyone knew about Lin Qingran's deep love for Xiao Heng. It turned out that if someone really loved someone, they would lose their soul when the other person left. This is the case with my own lady now.

With such a look, even relatives dare not say a word, for fear that she will not be able to survive.

Since she wanted to enter the palace to accompany the prince on his last journey, she went with her.

The affectionate Lin Qingran had already arrived at the East Palace. Looking at the main hall that was completely different from last night, she seemed not to notice a hint of coldness.

But the sound of the coffin last night was still in her ears. Lin Qingran's legs seemed to have taken root, making it impossible for her to walk in. Seeing Lin Qingran coming, the palace people couldn't help but look at her.

Seeing these gazes, Lin Qingran had no choice but to bravely walk inside, biting her lower lip tightly with her teeth, holding back and suffering.

The mourning hall was still the same, and no changes could be seen. Lin Qingran only felt that every minute and every second she stayed here was torture. If she hadn't discovered the two movements last night, she would still have to stand up and down for everyone. Act out a mourning act.

But now, she really felt a little creepy.

Fortunately, it was daytime and there were many people there, so her fear was much lessened.

The incense candles in the mourning hall were still there, and Lin Qingran threw paper money into the brazier in despair. Outsiders could not see her true thoughts anyway.

I don’t know what’s wrong with the plot, the cheap fiancé died so early.

The bright firelight flickered on Lin Qingran's face, and she still maintained the motion of throwing paper money, like a walking zombie.

After a noble person dies, no one will check his coffin at will, so almost no one in the East Palace knows that the person in the coffin has already disappeared by this time.

At the same time, a pale man was sitting on the bed in the inner chamber behind the main hall. He had his eyes closed, and there was gauze wrapped around his chest, with some blood oozing faintly.

Xiao Heng's breathing was very light, his brows furrowed slightly when he coughed, his right hand touched his heart, and the veins on his forehead and back of his hands popped out.

"Xuan Ying."

With a soft call, Xuan Ying fell into the room and knelt in front of the bed.

"I have met His Highness."

Xiao Heng covered his lips with a silk handkerchief and coughed lightly, "Is there anything strange?"

Xuan Ying immediately replied, "There is nothing unusual. The border gate is very secretive about the assassination of His Highness. Our people are secretly investigating. However, according to the information obtained by my subordinates, the assassination of His Highness has nothing to do with the capital. All clues were interrupted at the border gate."

"Yeah." Xiao Heng waved his hand.

After Xuan Ying left, Lin Qingran walked out of the main hall. She used to drink some hot water first in the morning. Drinking water would cause a little trouble, so she planned to solve personal problems first.

After solving her personal problems, she found that she seemed to have lost her way, as if every road looked the same.

Just as Xiao Heng closed his eyes to rest, a familiar voice came into his ears.

[I don’t want to stay in this miserable place for a moment. I can’t leave at all. Where did I come from just now? Why would anyone make the East Palace so complicated? 】

Could the East Palace be a ruined place?
  Xiao Heng had not yet responded, and his slightly confident voice continued to sound.

[It is definitely impossible to get lost. After going round and round, I still returned to the same place. Is this the legendary ghost hitting the wall? 】

After another long while, Lin Qingran returned to the same place again, and she complained until she lost her temper.

Lin Qingran didn't have much else, but she was very road-crazy, and she firmly believed that she was not a road-crazy, so she got lost in the East Palace. She didn't think of asking for help from the palace people, and at the same time, she called it in her heart: This is To be on the safe side, no one could find anything wrong, as the original owner had been to the East Palace many times.

Yes, it would be strange if someone who had walked so many times could get lost in the East Palace and it would not arouse speculation.
