Zhu Feng said: "Where are other people?"

Xiao Shunzi lowered his head, afraid of causing him anger, and his voice seemed cautious and said, "After returning to the palace, the imperial concubine did not return to Yikun Palace, but went to the cold palace."

"What?"

When Zhu Feng heard this, he felt angry.

"What did she do in the cold palace?!"

"this……"

Xiao Shunzi knew he was angry when he heard this. He was so scared that he took a step back and said timidly: "This, the Yikun Palace has been enfeoffed. Before the Imperial Concubine was kidnapped by King Ning, he lived in the cold palace."

“…”

Hearing him say this, Zhu Feng suddenly felt a bucket of cold water pouring on his anger and it was extinguished.

He looked at the dark gate again: "So here"

"It's been deserted for a long time."

After saying this, Xiao Shunzi looked at him carefully, afraid that he would remember something.

Actually, there is a problem with this statement.

After all, since Zhu Feng had just moved the capital and the incident at the Grand Sacred Altar, the imperial concubine did not live in the Yikun Palace here at all. It was not that it had been deserted for a long time, but that it had never been lively.

However, thinking of what happened before, Xiao Shunzi still adjusted his words slightly.

Zhu Feng did not notice this detail, but just frowned.

After a moment of silence, he turned around and walked to the other side.

Xiao Shunzi looked up and saw that the road led to the cold palace. He felt relieved and hurriedly followed. However, as soon as he walked to the door of the cold palace, Zhu Feng said, "You don't have to follow, just wait here."

"yes."

Xiao Shunzi raised his head and saw Zhu Feng's figure disappearing into the heavy night in front of him.

He sighed lightly.

Even if the cold palace in Peking is newly built, it is a cold palace.

It was almost spring, but it was still very cold here. The snow in the corner was not cleaned in time, emitting a bone-broken chill. There was no sound in the huge palace.

There is no light at all.

However, Zhu Feng didn't need lighting at all, and just walked on the dark road, without any barriers.

He is familiar with this path.

Once upon a time, I was in chaos, walked here, walked through this corridor, and then

There was a faint light ahead.

He took his breath and walked forward.

In that cold little yard, the doors and windows were closed, and only a little candlelight reflected through the window paper. Zhu Feng stood in the yard and saw the slender figure in the room at a glance, sitting next to a lonely lamp.

Although she couldn't see the expression on her face clearly, the loneliness and pain seemed to have suddenly soaked in her heart.

Zhu Feng's breathing sank a little.

Nanyan…

It turned out that at that time, even though I didn't know anything and was in chaos, I still wanted to come here because I wanted to find her.

But, it was wrong.

He couldn't help but clench his fists secretly.

At this time, another figure walked behind her. Ran Xiaoyu gently put a piece of clothing on her shoulder and said, "My lady, let's take a break early."

After a while, a cold voice sounded.

"I can't sleep."

"I know that the empress feels uncomfortable, but no matter what, I can't ignore my own body."

"I know," Nan Yan said, his voice gradually getting a hint of astringent: "I'm just"

“…”

“It’s uncomfortable.”

These two words were like a big stone, which suddenly pressed on Zhu Feng's heart.

He clenched his fists and could hardly help but rush in.

However, a gust of cold wind blew over, which helped him recover a trace of calm rationality.

Even if you go in, what can you do?

He looked at the slender shadow reflected on the window, obviously so weak, but also felt a sense of stubbornness, and he did not retreat even when facing himself.

This incident from the Jian family really hurt her.

But why don't you

At this time, Ran Xiaoyu was quiet for a long time and said softly: "Empress, I have something to say to the Empress."

"What?"

"Does the Empress really think that the Jian family is the emperor?"

The atmosphere suddenly suffocated.

Before she could finish her speech, Nan Yan said in a deep voice: "I don't want to listen."

"Empress..."

"I'm tired, you go down, I want to stay alone for a while."

Ran Xiaoyu looked at her hesitantly, and in the end she had no choice but to say anything else. She could only give her a blessed blessing and turned around and pushed the door and walked out.

A gust of cold wind blew in the yard.

Ran Xiaoyu stood under the eaves and quietly looked at the quiet little yard, but left without saying anything.

After a while, a figure slowly walked out from the side.

I looked into the room again, but before I could see the thin shadow reflected on the window, I heard a sudden sound.

The candlelight is extinguished.

Suddenly, a darkness fell into the surroundings, and silence was like a huge black hand, covering the world.

The next day, Ran Xiaoyu pushed open Nanyan's door early in the morning.

When I looked up, I was shocked.

Nan Yan sat on the head of the bed, never changing her clothes before. Her face was haggard and her eyes were red. She obviously didn't sleep all night!

She hurried over: "Empress, why are you?"

Nan Yan looked up at her and said, "You are here."

She didn't seem to be going to say anything more, so she got out of bed slowly. However, because she sat like this all night, her body had already stiffened and almost fell down when she got out of bed, so Ran Xiaoyu reached out to support her.

When I touched her hand, I found that her fingers were also cold.

Although the room was not as gorgeous and comfortable as in Yikun Palace, burning the ground dragon and incense, the people in the cold palace did not dare to neglect the "Niu Concubine" with special status. They specially prepared a stove for her, and other bedding and hot water were also available.

But still, it can't warm her.

Ran Xiaoyu thought for a while and said softly: "Empress, when I just came over, I heard the news coming from outside, saying that somehow the emperor was sick too."

“…”

"I heard that I was standing there for some night and caught a cold."

“…”

Ran Xiaoyu looked at her carefully and whispered: "Does the Empress know?"

Nanyan was still silent.

But there was a clear hint of disorder in the breathing.

How could she not know?

Last night was probably the longest night she had ever lived in her life, and even longer than the long night she was sent to prison by Zhu Feng before, compared to the long night in the Battle of Peking. Although she was not suffering, she was tortured only by listening to the faint breathing outside the door.

However, she never stood up and came out to take a look.

Looking at her somewhat depressed gaze, Ran Xiaoyu seemed to understand something and said softly: "Empress?"
