The sky finally darkened after a long day in the Cold Palace. Although this place was called a palace, it was actually just a small courtyard house. It was the kind that looked like it was made of gold and jade on the outside, but inside, it was dilapidated. On the outside, it looked magnificent, but inside, it was desolate. There were only two bedrooms and a hall. The furniture was only tables, chairs, and beds. Speaking of which, This Queen really wanted to kill that Emperor. The beds here were actually made of stone. Hey, hey, weren't the people locked in the Cold Palace human? The difference in treatment was too great.
Xiao Tao stepped forward and said that it was already past mealtime, but there was still no sign of the palace servants bringing food. She wanted to go to the imperial kitchen to take a look, so I stopped her in time." Xiao Tao, a phoenix that has shed its feathers is not as good as a chicken. If you go to the imperial kitchen now, no one will treat you well. You might even be chased out by them. However, with these tickets, it will be easy. Take them and ask them to send over a pot, firewood, and food. I don't know how long I'll stay in the Cold Palace. It's up to you."”After saying that, he took out a stack of silver notes from his clothes and handed it to Xiao Tao.
Xiao Tao widened her eyes in disbelief." Your Majesty, where did you get so many silver notes?”
"Didn't we go to the various palaces to settle the property last time? Just sell a few of them." I shrugged my shoulders to express my innocence. As for the belongings, I returned them to them within a few days.
Xiao Tao was speechless. She took out a banknote and placed it in the bedroom. After bowing to me, she left the Cold Palace. After she left, I went to the courtyard to check. I had to find a place to cook. My eyes stared at a few clothes poles. When I closed my eyes and sensed that there was no one around, I immediately snapped my fingers. The few clothes poles automatically turned into a cooking rack, and the two iron chains on it swayed left and right.
Not long after, Xiao Tao returned with two servants from the imperial kitchen. When she saw the shelf that appeared out of thin air, she was in a state of panic again. She actually blamed me for doing it myself. What if I got injured? I was speechless. If a Cold Palace Empress didn't do it herself, would she go to the Emperor? He stopped her from talking and asked the waiter to help with the pot. The two waiters connected the iron chain to the pot and set up a fire. Xiao Tao automatically took the food and prepared it at the side.
I have to say that Xiao Tao is quite smart. She even bought the cooking spices and knives that I didn't mention. She didn't let me do anything and made a few hometown dishes by herself. They tasted pretty good. Xiao Tao said that in the future, firewood and food would be sent over regularly. As long as she asked them, they would also send the seasonings. The problem of eating was solved, but what about drying the clothes?
I smiled and told her to rest early after eating. She would be able to see the new clothes pole tomorrow morning. Xiao Tao could only shut her mouth and eat quietly, her eyes a little sad. I was helpless. Everything in this Cold Palace was not under the control of the Imperial Palace. There was a well water so water was not a problem. However, it was not a solution to stay here forever. Consort Lin, come quickly. I still need you to return to Zhonghua Hall.
After Xiao Tao finished eating, she cleaned up the dishes and made the bed. After bowing to me, she returned to her room to rest. In ancient times, people went to bed early. It was about 8:30 pm now. I didn't sleep that early. Besides, I was a night creature. Xiao Tao had probably fallen asleep and climbed over the wall to leave the palace. Speaking of which, why didn't the emperor care about such a big security loophole?
I followed the flow of people to the streets and alleys of the capital, and as usual, I became the focus of everyone. The gazes around me made me proud, and my female vanity was greatly satisfied. I sniffed and seemed to smell the smell of cloud cake. I looked at a stall not far away that sold cloud cake. I took a few steps forward and picked up a bite. En, the snacks outside were the best. The stall owner originally wanted to make trouble, but when he saw me, he immediately fell into a daze.
Picking up a plate of white snacks, he rubbed the stall owner's head and turned around to continue walking. When he heard the noise behind him, he smiled evilly. He turned around and saw the stall owner being beaten up by a group of people. He shook his head and shrugged his shoulders to express his innocence as he slowly left.
Arriving at the Wanhua Building, which was said to be the largest brothel in the capital, fiery red lanterns were hung all over the building. Women dressed in rags were recruiting customers at the door. The brothel madame was busy greeting them and did not have the time to rest. There were also some young ladies who were responsible for serving the dishes. This building had three floors and it was indeed the largest in the vicinity. This Queen decided to play here tonight.
As soon as I stepped into the door, the brothel madame immediately pushed me out." Miss, this is a place for men. Please go back."”
She took out a silver note and waved it in front of the brothel madame. Her eyes lit up." This lady wants to play here today. Brothel madame, please do me a favor and give me this ten thousand silver note."
Before she could finish, the money was snatched away by the brothel madame and stuffed into her sleeve." Alright, alright. How do you want to play, Miss?”
"Don't worry about it. Go and greet the guests.”After saying that, he walked into the Ten Thousand Flower House.
The hall, which was bustling with noise just a moment ago, fell silent. I couldn't help but sneeze when I smelled the rouge powder. The smell was so strong that I was about to die. I really didn't understand why men liked to come to such places. My inhuman hearing allowed me to hear all the sounds from upstairs. I blushed slightly. As expected of someone who had undergone training. The screams were so intoxicating.
Everyone was mesmerized by the fairy maiden who had suddenly barged in. They couldn't help but swallow their saliva when they saw her blushing face. An extremely limited image appeared in their minds. A dandy young master stood up and went to the brothel madame." I say, Mother Official, you're really mean to hide such a fairy maiden and only show her now."”
"Aiyo, what are you talking about, Young Master Wang? You're an old customer of the Ten Thousand Flower House, so I won't treat you badly. However, she's not a girl of the Ten Thousand Flower House. She just gave me ten thousand taels of silver and said she wanted to play here.”The brothel keeper quickly clarified.
"Oh, I'll go meet this little lady.”After saying that, Young Master Wang walked towards Yue, who was still touring.
I turned around and almost bumped into a man. I knew he wasn't a good person at first glance. After I bumped into him, he blurted out," Yo, little lady, you can't wait to throw yourself into my arms?”
She blinked and smiled. The man in front of her had a faint nosebleed. So he treated me as a lonely young woman? Damn it, how could this queen, who was forever eighteen years old, look like she had married someone? She had no choice but to tease him. She pointed at his chest and spat softly," You're very bad. I just accidentally bumped into you. Do you want to play with me?"”The man nodded repeatedly." As long as you catch me, it's fine. Everyone. As long as anyone catches me, I'll play with them.”
As soon as I finished speaking, I ran to the stage. A group of men pushed each other and chased after me. I ran down the stage and weaved through the crowd, making it impossible for them to touch me. In addition, the men's hall from the second floor had already fallen into chaos. Four hours later, a group of people sat on the ground panting, and I returned to the stage with a frown.
"What's wrong with you guys? Are you tired so quickly? Alright, let's change the method. Since you can't catch me, you can only fight each other. Whoever wins can play with me.”He pressed his index finger against his lower lip and spat out. His black eyes were slightly electric. The men were stunned for a moment before they immediately started fighting. In addition, a few of them knew some martial arts. The rich ones called for servants.
Standing on the stage and watching the chaos below, there were the sounds of broken tables and chairs and broken porcelain from time to time. The brothel madame was anxiously pacing around to ask them to stop. In the end, she cried and shouted to her side," Miss, I beg you to stop them. My Wanhua House has been destroyed. Do I still have to do business in the future?"”
He took out ten tickets and told her to shut up." Take them. I'm in the mood. Don't disturb me."”
The brothel madame could only accept the silver notes and leave silently.
In a private room on the second floor, a jade-faced man dressed in distinguished clothes looked at the farce downstairs with a mocking smile. He looked at the stage with interest. He put down the teacup and flew downstairs to hug the fairy's slender waist. Immediately, he smelled a refreshing fragrance.
Looking at the jade-faced man who was hugging me, I was a little confused. I didn't expect to be caught at this time. I don't know who said to let go of her, but the man showed them a jade token and immediately lost his arrogance. I also knew his identity. It turned out that he was King Jing's younger brother, King Yun. I think he came to find him after his brother had not returned.
