Originally, Chen Tong wanted to ask Madam He to tell her about the Chaoyang Palace, such as where the Empress Dowager lived and how many guards there were at night, but when she learned that Madam He was not the insider of the Xiao family, she gave up the idea.

She didn't even ask Mama He about the woman who entered the palace a few days ago.

Without further questions, she also guessed that Madam He didn't know about Yun Qi's entry into the palace.

Yun Qi also hid in the water delivery truck and sneaked into the palace, but the Xiao family just agreed to bring her into the palace, but didn't care about what she had after entering the palace. From the moment Yun Qi came out of the water delivery truck, he had nothing to do with the Xiao family.

But Chen Tong is different. The Xiao family not only brought her into the palace, but also asked Madam He to settle her.

But Chen Tong didn't have the heart to thank the Xiao family for her thoughtfulness. She just wanted to find Yun Qi as soon as possible.

By the way, in addition to Yun Qi, there is also an acquaintance in this palace.

Plum is better than snow.

I just don’t know if Mei Shengxue is still in the cold palace.

After Chen Tong came to the capital, he inquired about the matter in the palace. After Emperor Chongwen passed away, except for Empress Yang and Concubine Mao, who had a son, all other palace servants moved into the cold palace.

According to the rules, they will not be in the cold palace forever. When the new emperor officially ascends the throne, they will be divided into third-class.

First time, I received the grace of the Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager. The new emperor gave him a title and stayed in the palace to enjoy his life.

The second class was to go to Ci'en Temple to practice and pray for the last emperor. From then on, the ancient Buddha of Qinglan was born in the rest of his life.

The third place is those who are hated by the Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager on weekdays, and the parents' families outside the palace cannot help. Their ending is to live in the cold palace until they die of old age.

This also includes the lady from the Meng family in Xi'an.

Now that the new emperor has not officially ascended the throne, Meiren Meng should be in the cold palace.

Mei Shengxue is Meng Meiren's personal palace maid. When Meng Meiren entered the cold palace, she should have lived in the cold palace as well.

However, that was just a normal behavior, and Mei Shengxue has never been a normal person.

Chen Tong felt a little headache when she thought of Mei Shengxue.

Fortunately, she and Mei Shengxue are neither friends nor enemies.

Chen Tong felt that Mei Shengxue had left the cold palace in eight out of ten, and that a person like her would never let herself live in despair.

Walking out of the bamboo forest, Chen Tong finally saw the lights.

Chaoyang Palace was originally not the largest palace in the harem, but after Emperor Taizu passed away, the Empress Dowager would often summon court officials and nobles in Chaoyang Palace. Therefore, Chaoyang Palace has undergone several expansions and is now the largest in the harem.

Chen Tong looked around and didn't know where she was going.

But she knew one thing. Yun Qi entered the palace to assassinate the Empress Dowager, so she would definitely come to Chaoyang Palace. Maybe at this moment, Yun Qi was in Chaoyang Palace.

A team of palace maids holding lanterns walked by. Chen Tong hurriedly covered the tree behind the tree and saw a woman wearing plain clothes walking in the middle of the team. Chen Tong couldn't see her face clearly, so she could only estimate from her walking posture that the woman should not be young anymore.

The woman put her hand on the arm of an old eunuch, walked slowly, and took a few steps to take a break, and she coughed a few times in the middle.

After getting closer, Chen Tong saw clearly that the woman was dressed as a monk, wearing a black robes and a nun.

But she had an eunuch and a palace maid around her, and of course she wouldn’t be an ordinary nun. Chen Tong thought of the people in Ci'en Temple. Could this woman be the concubine of Emperor Taizu or the prince’s concubine?

But why did she appear in the palace, and it was at night?

At this moment, a little palace maid ran over quickly. The palace maids holding the lamp did not stop her. She ran to the nun, bowed her knees and said, "Master, the mouse in the morning has caught it. What do you think of the solution?"

Chen Tong widened her eyes. It was a coincidence. This was Mei Shengxue's voice!

Unfortunately, the little palace maid turned her back to her. Chen Tong couldn't see the little palace maid's face, but that head and height were clearly the same as when he first saw Chunque at the Tao family in Shangqiao Town six years ago.

If there is any benefit to Mei Shengxue, it is easy to recognize, it is too easy to recognize.

After six years, whether it is Chen Tong, Xiao Ren or Fangfei, her height and appearance have changed a lot. Those who have not watched them grow up may not recognize them at first sight. But Mei Shengxue is different. She has never changed. She is still the nine-year-old Xiaochunque back then.

However, she is not only Chunque, she is also Mei Shengxue, she is still Ten Girls, and she is also the current little palace maid Xiangxue.

But what happened to the mouse Mei Shengxue mentioned?

I heard the nun say, "Amitabha, who asked you to catch it, let it go quickly."

Xiangxue said, "But Master, if you put the mouse on it, it will come out again at night and make you feel restless and you will not be able to sleep well."

"The nun cannot be at peace. It is because the nun has a weak cultivation level. What does it have to do with that little creature? If you don't want to let it go, then find a cage to raise it, and take it back when the nun returns to the temple." said the nun.

Xiangxue was obviously very happy, and she said happily: "Okay, I'll go find a cage now."

After saying that, she ran away in a flash.

The old eunuch who followed the nun said, "Master, mercy."

The nun sighed and said, "It is not considered compassionate to leave the life of a mouse, alright, let's go."

A group of people walked past the big tree where Chen Tong was hiding. Chen Tong finally saw the nun's face clearly. She looked very old and wrinkled, but to Chen Tong's surprise, there were two scars on her face, both of which were on her right face, one stroke after another, crossing together, which made her face look particularly ferocious.

The scar on the old nun's face was clearly not caused by ordinary injuries. It was disfigured and injured for disfigurement.

Chen Tong had seen a disfigured woman with knife and scalds, but this was the first time she saw someone like an old nun.

Although the old nun is old, her behavior is still elegant and calm. When she was young, she thought she was also a beautiful woman with a kind attitude.

Chen Tong followed the group and walked forward.

So she returned to the green bamboo path.

The corridor is not long, and the old nun lives in a very small but exquisite courtyard.

The palace maids did not go in with them. They sent the old nun to the gate of the yard and then surrendered, leaving only the old eunuch to support the old nun into the yard.

Chen Tong waited outside the yard for a while until there was no light inside, and she climbed over the wall and entered the yard.

As soon as she entered the yard, she heard the sound of wooden fish. There were only three rooms in the yard. Chen Tong came to the main house after the sound of wooden fish. There was no light in the room. Through the moonlight, Chen Tong saw the old nun sitting at the kang table, knocking on wooden fish and chanting the scriptures in a low voice.

Chen Tong turned around and went to another room. The window of the room was open. Two little palace maids were sleeping on the kang. As soon as she approached the window, one of the little palace maids sat up and looked out the window.
