Profound Spirit Master

Chapter 118 Changes in the Imperial Palace (3)
"Tell me what promise do you want first?" the old man asked cautiously.

Ningshuang smiled slightly, "One thing is for now. If that thing is still there, please give it to the junior. Otherwise, it will be treated as if the junior never mentioned it."

"Okay, the map is fine. As for the story, what story do you want to hear?" Seeing that Ningshuang didn't make any unreasonable demands, the old man readily agreed.

The corners of Ningshuang's lips curled into a nice curve, and she said, "A story about childhood sweethearts!"

As soon as this remark came out, everyone was shocked!

In the end, the middle-aged man sighed heavily, and said in surprise: "You doubt the queen?" Then he sighed again: "With her scheming, maybe!"

So, he told Ningshuang a poignant love story. In the story, there are pure and beautiful green plums, and bamboo horses who are not married by Feiqing.

The Ice Emperor, Concubine Mei and the current empress have known each other since they were young. Because the Ice Emperor and Concubine Mei have excellent cultivation talents, they have been studying together at the Imperial Academy since they were ten years old.Classmates for several years, can be described as childhood sweethearts.After the Ice Emperor became an adult, he expressed his heart to Concubine Mei, claiming that he would marry her as his queen after he succeeded to the throne.

Just when their concubine and concubine were in love with each other, an accident happened, and Concubine Mei's mother passed away.Concubine Mei's father was originally a general of the empire, who died in battle early, and she was raised by a widowed mother since she was a child.In accordance with her mother's last wish, Concubine Mei had to send the spirit of her dead mother back to her ancestral home in the Lei Luo Empire, and keep her mourning for one year.At that time, the Ice Emperor happened to go to the Xuanyuan Empire to visit his aunt, and Concubine Mei had no choice but to leave a letter to their mutual friend—the current empress.

Unexpectedly, after reading Concubine Mei's letter, the Queen knew that Concubine Mei had made a private appointment with the Bing Emperor for life.This made the queen who had admired the ice emperor since she was a child burn with anger, and was driven by jealousy to come up with a plan.By letting the ice emperor come to pick up the letter, he poured Meixiang and Acacia in the tea.The unsuspecting Ice King drank tea and flirted with the queen, but regretted it after waking up.But facing the tears of the weak queen, the Ice Emperor had no choice but to promise her that he would give her the title of side concubine.

At that time, the queen did not raise any objections, but secretly sent someone to send a letter of death to Concubine Mei, emphasizing the fact that the ice emperor ate her up.When it was over, she said that she couldn't cultivate since she was a child, and she was just an incompetent boudoir girl. Now she has lost her innocence, and the Ice Emperor can't marry her because of someone she loves in her heart. She can only die.A letter was written so sadly and sadly.

When the young and energetic Concubine Mei saw the death letter, she felt angry and hated, and angrily replied the letter to the Ice Emperor.First they accused him of breaking their vow of love, and then asked him to marry the queen, otherwise they would never see each other again.

The ice emperor who received the reply also blamed Concubine Mei for being intolerant. At that time, the queen was generous, reasonable, gentle and considerate.After a month or two, he also developed symptoms of nausea, and happened to be bumped into by the Ice Emperor's father.

In the end, due to various reasons, the ice emperor married the current queen as the crown prince and concubine.Unfortunately, after two or three months, the pregnant princess accidentally fell and had a miscarriage.

After the one-year filial piety period, the proud Concubine Mei did not return to Bingyu Country, but stayed at her ancestral home.Later, the Ice Emperor succeeded to the throne, visited the Leiluo Empire, and met Concubine Mei again.The old people reunited, and when they talked about the past, they immediately understood that they had all been tricked by the queen.

So, the Ice Emperor brought back Concubine Mei and gave her all his love.Similarly, in order to avenge the queen, he coaxed the queen into taking Juezi Pill, and never stepped into the queen's bedroom.Later, Concubine Mei gave birth to Bingyuhe, and the Binghuang loved him so much that he was made the heir apparent upon birth.Unexpectedly, during Bingyuhe's second birthday party, Concubine Mei suddenly vomited blood and died.

The Ice Emperor repeatedly searched for the reason, but did not come to a clear result. After repeated weighing, in order to ensure the safety and growth of Bingyuhe, he forcefully asked the queen to adopt Bingyuhe, but in fact he raised it himself.

It was night, the moonlight was shining brightly, and the plum trees that were all dyed in the light of the moon were less lonely and cold the night before, but gave birth to a bit of charming brilliance.

Stepping on the moonlight, Ningshuang used Baihu's Wind Hidden Technique to enter the Qingmei Hall as if no one was watching.The map given to her by the old man marked every palace, pavilion and underground passage in the palace, except Qingmei Palace.

Ningshuang had a vague feeling that the Bingyu River might be in some unknown place in Qingmei Palace.After all, the Ice Emperor had an accident in Meilin at that time, Ruo Bingyuhe was familiar with Meilin's magic circle, and it was easy to escape into Qingmei Palace while taking advantage of the chaos.

Entering the Qingmei Palace again, Ningshuang focused on the restriction and the search of the mechanism.She had a faint feeling that there must be some secret hidden in this palace where the Ice Emperor smiled for her beauty.

Checked room by room, but found nothing.Just when Ningshuang thought that she had made a mistake in her judgment and wanted to leave Qingmei Hall, her gaze stayed on a picture of cold plums and proud snow in the main hall.This picture is exactly the same as the picture of Hanmei Aoxue in the Ice Emperor's bedroom, the difference is that this picture is not hung on the wall, but a relief.

Ningshuang reached out to touch the relief, then knocked carefully, and was surprised to find that the relief was actually empty.Could it be that the relief was not carved on the wall, but glued to the wall?
This discovery made Ningshuang couldn't help observing more carefully, touching, pressing, and touching. She tried several methods and found nothing unusual about the relief.He also sent out his spiritual sense to investigate, but it was a pity that he was like a mud cow entering the sea, and he couldn't find the slightest clue.Later, her fingers accidentally touched a plum blossom on the relief, and only then did she realize that the plum blossom can be pressed.She tried plum blossoms one by one, only to realize that the plum blossoms that could be pressed were arranged in the shape of a Big Dipper.

When the seven plum blossoms were pressed together, something amazing happened.The wall carved with reliefs actually pushed in quite a bit, revealing a passage that only allowed one person to pass through.

Ningshuang released her consciousness, sensed a faint aura coming from the passage, and immediately stepped into the passage.In the dark passage, the light emitted by Zilian Divine Fire is hot and dazzling.Through the passage, Ningshuang came to an empty underground palace.The four walls of the underground palace are built with blue bricks, and the ground is covered with bluestone slabs.

Looking at the empty underground palace, Ningshuang frowned slightly. She searched carefully on the walls and floors for a while, but found nothing.

The Bingyu River must be here!The feeling of certainty in my heart not only did not disappear but became stronger.

After walking around the underground palace for two or three times, Ningshuang suddenly found two drops of blood on a corner of the wall. The blood had already dried up and turned a dull brown.Following the bloodstains, Ningshuang found a few more bloodstains, all in the corner of this wall.

So, Ningshuang put all her attention on this wall, only then did she realize that there were some ancient characters engraved on some bricks on this wall.After some identification, Ningshuang finally recognized these words with a guess - childhood sweetheart.

She tried to apply profound strength to these four characters at the same time, and a strange scene appeared, the bricks engraved with these four characters quickly combined together.Immediately afterwards, there was a dull sound, and the wall suddenly separated towards the two sides.Ningshuang released her spiritual sense to sense it, and found that the faint breath she sensed earlier came from the space behind the wall.
