Chapter 194 (1/2)
In the afternoon, Qinghui garden.
Qinghui garden, originally a royal garden, is a good place for summer vacation.
The Qinghui garden is huge, including mountains, forests and lakes. You can't go in for a day.
Mu Yi'an walks on the path outside the Qinghui garden, with dense weeds on both sides. This generation is said to be the place where the former imperial concubine lived. Because the imperial concubine was killed here, it is said that there are innocent souls who have claimed their lives and have been abandoned for a long time. On weekdays, few people come.
In summer, the cool wind blows across the lake, rippling with endless ripples.
Mu Yi'an shook his wrist, opened the folding fan and gently fanned it. A faint aroma came out from the folding fan, blowing away the dry heat and sultry air.
It's very quiet here. There's no one in sight.
The path of the bluestone slab was covered with moss. Walking on it was smooth. He almost fell down several times. Fortunately, his body shape and footwork were always good, so he could stabilize his body shape.
Turning the path, there is a vermilion door. Because it is abandoned here, the vermilion paint on it is mottled and falls off, which looks like a sense of vicissitudes.
Mu Yi'an gently pushed the door open, and the heavy wooden door made a dull squeak, which was creepy even in the daytime, and a chill took off from the bottom of his heart.
The interior is dirty and littered with things. The former bustling palace is now dilapidated. The window lattice is broken and hung on the window frame, making a creaking sound with the wind.
Walking inside, the cold wrapped around him, as if he had entered the ice cellar. There were dark winds blowing under his feet, as if something was about to break through the earth.
Mu Yi'an's face turned pale, as if frightened.
Pedal pedal pedal, there is a rapid sound of footsteps coming from behind.
Mu Yi'an suddenly turned around and saw a hurried figure squeeze in through the crack of the door. She walked quickly, a little flustered and almost hit Mu Yi'an.
She paused and looked up at him.
Her eyes were full of worry and helplessness. Worried, she asked, ”brother an, how are you? I heard you're not in good health?”
Mu Yi'an coughed and shook his head: ”it's no big deal. What's the matter with you coming to me?”
Yun Jiao looked a little strange: ”I'm looking for you, not you looking for me?”
Mu Yi'an frowned: ”I received your letter, asked me to come here to see you, and said there was something important to discuss.”
”Brother an, talk nonsense. When did I write to you? I've been busy serving the emperor these days. Where do I have time to write letters!” She has just entered the palace. It is the time of Sheng Chong. She accompanies the emperor from morning to night every day. Where does she have time to find Mu Yian.
Mu Yi'an frowned and said, ”No.”
”Emperor... Emperor, Queen... Empress?”
At the same time, Cui Huan's panic voice came from outside the door.
”Emperor, she's in there.” This is the Queen's voice.
Yunjiao immediately realized what was wrong. She turned and walked out, but before she reached the door, she heard the sound of hurried footsteps coming from outside the door. The sound of footsteps alone had made her angry.
Yun Jiao was frightened and looked back in panic: ”you go...”
Her voice stopped suddenly, looked at Mu Yi'an in front of her and widened her eyes.
Mu Yi'an in front of her changed her appearance in the moment she turned her head, not only her appearance, but also her clothes.
