Zhong Miao Yi nodded, she understood the principle that a royal order could not be disobeyed.
[If I don't go in, I'm afraid there will be a bigger crime waiting for me. What is there to be afraid of?]
She took a deep breath and patted the back of Xiao Yao's hand: "Don't be afraid, we're already here. The person inside is also human, just like us, what's there to be afraid of?"
Xiao Yao was trembling in fear. "But this servant heard from the elders at the side of the palace that the Cold Palace was filled with monsters that suck blood at night."
Zhong Miao Yi pushed open the broken door in front of her and let out a creaking sound. The accumulated dust assaulted her face in an instant, making her cough.
After coughing, Zhong Miao Yi walked in with Xiao Yao. "What demon is there, it's just been locked up for a long time. It's all nonsense. "
It was terrifyingly quiet, as if there was no one there.
Xiao Yao looked at it for a long time before swallowing her saliva. Where are we going now? It's like this. There's really no one here. "
Since the Emperor had asked her to come here and calm down, and to think about her own sins, it would be better if no one disturbed her.
Although the entrance to the cold palace looked old and worn out, the interior was very big. The continuous palace rooms, under the cover of the overgrown corridors, were truly eerie and terrifying.
Even the scorching sunlight seemed to have dimmed down a lot, and he could no longer feel the brightness of the heat.
Since there was no one around, Xiao Yao was a lot more relaxed. She said that she would find a slightly better house to pack up and see if there was anything that she could use.
Zhong Miao Yi casually walked around the courtyard.
Even though it was called a cold palace, Zhong Miao Yi felt that this place used to be a palace of great glory.
There were many buildings here, and even though the water was barren and full of weeds, there were also magnificent fake mountains.
At the banquet in the long corridor, the courtyard was very deep, no matter if it was the buildings or the arrangement, everything was very particular, it was most likely that only the palace in Imperial Consort De could compare.
But she was not thinking about that now, she turned for a while and did not turn back, just as she was about to turn back, just in case Xiao Yao could not find her. She was worried, when she suddenly heard a coarse laughter coming from the room beside her.
The sound of his laughter was like a fingernail scraping against a mirror, causing goosebumps to appear on everyone's skin.
Zhong Miao Yi was shocked, she stood there for a long time not daring to move, staring at the room beside him but unable to hear anything, thinking that she had heard wrongly.
She wasn't in the mood to explore and figure out if she had heard wrongly. She just wanted to leave this place as soon as possible.
Unexpectedly, just as she was about to look away, the laughter rang out again.
Zhong Miao Yi could hear everything clearly, it was definitely not her imagination. She felt her scalp go numb, and shouted: "Who is it?!"
No one answered.
If it was elsewhere, Zhong Miao Yi would probably go up to open the door, but this was the Cold Palace.
If there was anyone in this palace, it was unknown for how long they had been locked up, and it was unknown what reason they were locked up. Everyone here were people waiting to die, if they really went crazy and did something to her, it would only be death, and these people were not afraid of death!
Knowing that there was someone in the palace, Zhong Miao Yi only wanted to return quickly. Afraid that Xiao Yao would run into someone else, she prepared to leave.
"And who are you?"
He can laugh and speak, and is also an old granny. Zhong Miao Yi suddenly stopped being afraid, and stood in the courtyard saying: "My name is Zhong Miao Yi."
After that, there was a long period of silence. Zhong Miao Yi didn't know if she had heard or not, but after a long while, when no one replied, she continued, "Are you still there? Can you hear me? "
"I can hear it!"
The door that was facing Zhong Miao Yi was suddenly pulled open, and she saw an old lady with cloudy eyes standing there. Although her hair was already white, but she still tied it up properly, and although her skin was relaxed and her movements were slow, she wore very proper clothes, it was the same old style that she wore a dozen years ago.
Zhong Miao Yi looked into her eyes for a moment and was shocked by the old lady's gaze.
She staggered out, "What are you doing here? This is not a place for the living. "
After saying that, he laughed hoarsely, "Haha, but you don't need to think about leaving when you're here."
The Zhong Miao Yi didn't know what she meant by those words, and carefully went closer. "Grandma, who are you?"
"Grandma?" The old granny suddenly acted as if she had heard a great joke, "I'm not your granny, I'm just a slave servant. I've lived here for decades, and I've seen too many people enter. No one went out. "Hur hur, there's no one here."
After saying that, he seemed to have thought of something as he carefully sized up Zhong Miao Yi: "But you are the most similar one!"
Zhong Miao Yi was confused, she did not understand the meaning of those words, but she vaguely felt that those words were very familiar, "Me. "I don't quite understand."
"Of course you don't understand. The people who came in didn't understand why, but why do you need to understand so much?" The old granny shook her head, then turned and walked to another place, "You'd better not live there, it's full of madmen! They will eat you alive, eat your flesh, and drink your blood! "
Zhong Miao Yi watched as the old granny left. This old lady said that she had been guarding this place for decades? Then she must know a lot of things.
Zhong Miao Yi hardened her heart. Although she did not see anyone else, she had already decided to live with this old lady.
Since they had already decided, Zhong Miao Yi decided to return to find Xiao Yao and let her clean up the room. After all, the house here seemed to be a lot more stable.
Just as she walked to the place where the two of them were at, and was about to shout twice, she heard Xiao Yao's shriek of panic.
Zhong Miao Yi thought that she had met with some kind of danger, so she immediately ran over and bumped into Xiao Yao who was frantically running out of the house.
Xiao Yao was scared out of her wits, only when she saw Zhong Miao Yi did she regain her senses, "Princess! Madman! "Madman!"
Zhong Miao Yi frowned and looked inside, only to see a lady with dishevelled hair who was squatting beside a pillar in the room.
Xiao Yao took a deep breath and said softly, "It was she, she just now. You said just now that you were Imperial Consort Zhong. "
