C270 frightened (1/2)

The palace's night path was always gloomy, Zhong Miao Yi did not follow the group, she was too tired to respond.

Ah Jiu had been talking to Zhong Miao Yi in a low voice the entire time. Such a voice made Zhong Miao Yi feel slightly more at ease, as she knew that there was someone beside him.

The journey back to the Eternal Nightfall Pavilion was very long. Zhong Miao Yi walked alone in the darkness, feeling somewhat scared and anxious.

There shouldn't be any cats around the palace. In the luxuriant night, Zhong Miao Yi seemed to suddenly hear a few cat meows.

”Did anyone in the palace raise a cat?” Zhong Miao Yi frowned and asked, she involuntarily pulled Ah Jiu's hand, and looked around.

The Ah Jiu was somewhat baffled. She listened carefully and said: ”I've never heard of anyone raising a cat. What did master hear?”

Zhong Miao Yi nodded her head and sped up her pace: ”I always felt that I was too cautious. I just heard a few cats meowing, it was very scary.”

”The cat has probably fallen in love. Don't be afraid, master.” Although the Ah Jiu said that, she knew that the wild cat was very ferocious. It would be bad if she was caught, so she also helped the Zhong Miao Yi move forward quickly.

She did not hear the wild cat's voice, but when Zhong Miao Yi said she did, he did not dare to let her guard down.

This path was very long, and after they passed through, they should be able to see a few palace maids and eunuchs patrolling the area.

Halfway there, Ah Jiu also heard a cat meow. It was really scary.

Where did this come from?

Or could it be that they didn't walk at night, so they didn't know?

However, all the servants in the palace could be cleaned at any time, so how could there be?

Now was not the time to think about this. Hearing the cat's cry, he seemed to be a little closer to them. Ah Jiu suddenly steadied his footsteps and pulled at Zhong Miao Yi: ”Master, from that cry, do you want to go around the corner?”

The Zhong Miao Yi was silent for a while. To return to the palace, she had to go this way, the Zhong Miao Yi had no other choice.

She stood there, hesitating for a moment.

Just as he was about to tell the Ah Jiu whether she should leave or not, a scream came from the side before she could say anything.

The voice sounded familiar, but at that moment, he could not recall who it belonged to.

Zhong Miao Yi was shocked and subconsciously took a step back. Then, the place became bustling as if something had happened.

Zhong Miao Yi struggled a bit, but in the end, she gritted her teeth and walked out to take a look.

The one who fell from the carriage was Zhou Xu. She was clutching her stomach, and all the girls beside her were panicking.

Zhong Miao Yi walked up quickly, wanting to see if she was alright. If she fell down like that, would the child still be there?!

However, Zhou Xu did not seem to bleed, only saying that she had a stomachache.

When Zhong Miao Yi appeared, it was as if the servants had found a master. She beckoned for Zhou Xu to be lifted up again and hurried back to the palace. Another eunuch was needed to go invite the imperial physician over.

Zhong Miao Yi didn't know why she had to meddle in Zhou Xu's business, but the image of Zhou Xu clutching her stomach and crying out in pain was intertwined with some of the shattered pieces from before, causing her to be unable to help but pay attention.
