Zhixuan and Zhao Shizhe followed Yin Bishan's carriage into the palace. They were brought to Bixiao Palace, which was Yin Bishan's luxurious bedroom.
The palace was indeed as grand as the rumors said. Helan Zhixuan and Zhao Shizhe couldn't help but look around, sighing at the luxurious life of the master of this dynasty! Yin Bishan was sitting on the golden seat at the front desk. She had changed into a similarly elegant green dress. Her face was covered with a green silk cloth, and she wore a heavy crown on her head. Her eyebrows were long and thin like the moon, and her eyes were drawn with thick lines, making her look even more noble and inviolable.
Yin Bishan gathered her spirit and looked at Helan Zhixuan and Zhao Shizhe for a long time. It was the first time Helan Zhixuan and Zhao Shizhe were stared at by such a domineering woman. They felt an indescribable pain in their hearts. "Who are you?" she finally spoke.”There was a masculine boldness in her voice, unlike the domineering air that a woman should have.
Zhao Shizhe appeared very respectful and said,"Your Highness, I am Zhao Shizhe, a swordsman who traveled from the Central Plains to Jinshuo.”
"I'm Helan Zhixuan. I wander the world and have no fixed residence." The reason why I came to the Jin Shuo Dynasty was because of this person beside me. He originally had a battle agreement with me, but not long ago, he avoided me during the Gate Battle. I heard that he hid here, so I chased him to Jin Shuo.”
Zhao Shizhe said to Helan Zhixuan," Helan Zhixuan, you're really persistent. I'm not afraid of you. I'm just tired of the meaningless sect wars in the pugilistic world. I just wanted to find a peaceful place to settle down. I didn't expect you to chase me here!”
"I won't be satisfied until the victor is decided," said Helan Zhixuan. In this life, I look down on people like you who don't believe what you say the most!”
"Alright, stop arguing!" Yin Bishan shouted impatiently.”
Zhao Shizhe and Helan Zhixuan fell silent. They didn't know if Yin Bishan would believe them so easily.
Yin Bishan's tone was stiff as she continued,""The two of you actually dare to block my carriage. Anyone who offends me should be sentenced to death!”
Seeing Helan Zhixuan and Zhao Shizhe's fear, Yin Bishan softened her tone and said,"However, you saved me at the last moment and displayed extraordinary martial arts courage. It just so happened that bengong was in a good mood today and had the heart to cherish talent. If you are willing to follow me, I can spare your lives.”
Helan Zhixuan and Zhao Shizhe looked at each other and pretended to be deep in thought. Hearing Yin Bishan's words, they were secretly happy. It seemed that sneaking into the palace was easier than they had imagined. Could it be that Yin Bishan really liked their beauty? Sigh, he couldn't let them give up their chastity just to get the Luxiang antidote.
Yin Bishan's beautiful eyes suddenly shone with a seductive light as she asked gently,""What do you think?"
Zhao Shizhe smiled elegantly and said gently to Yin Bishan,""A good bird chooses a tree to perch in. I am naturally willing to stay and work for the Empress. I only wish to stay away from the martial world.”If this smile was directed at Shen Minxi, Chen Moxie, and the others, it would definitely cause a huge incident.
It seemed like it was time for the two top handsome guys to compete in handsomeness. Helan Zhixuan's eyes were full of tenderness, heroic and valiant. This style was filled with charm. He glanced at Zhao Shizhe and said,"Hearing what you said, I'm also very willing to stay. Also, I remember our bet.”
Zhao Shizhe turned his head to look at Helan Zhixuan and shivered! How could there be such a charming man's smile in the world? Zhao Shizhe had to admit that Helan Zhixuan was a rare beauty in the world. He pretended to be very angry and said,"Helan Zhixuan, you didn't make the same choice as me just for that sect battle, right?”
The queen, who had been ignored by the two beautiful men, changed her attitude and shouted,"Shut up! There are no rules! Here, you have no right to choose! I'll make all the decisions. All of you will stay behind and work for me from now on. I need people like you right now.”
Yin Bishan really didn't know how to appreciate the romantic atmosphere. What a waste of expression! These two proud and handsome men had put down their past glory and were trying to curry favor with her, but she actually turned a blind eye to them and did not take them seriously at all! Even if she was just a vase, this was too embarrassing.
Zhao Shizhe was curious. She didn't seem to have recruited them for people. What was she trying to do? He couldn't help but ask,"Your Highness, you already have supreme power. What else do you need?"”
Yin Bishan's crisp laughter echoed in the luxurious palace. She said,""You'll find out soon enough.”His tone was filled with mystery and dominance.
Helan Zhixuan felt that Yin Bishan was not an ordinary woman. She was a woman with intelligence and ambition. In front of ordinary women, he could feel the admiration in their eyes. Moreover, Zhao Shizhe was also a handsome man who could win the hearts of young girls. However, Yin Bishan did not. She was calm and composed. She liked them not because of their outstanding appearance, but because they made her feel that they were of value.
At the same time, Lu Xiao and Ping Yuxiao had already disguised themselves as servants to deliver water and sneaked into the palace. They lowered their heads and wiped some cigarette ash on their faces. They followed the other person who delivered water and a few guards to the reservoir. Using the name of the toilet, they left the guards 'line of sight and went to the toilet. They changed out of the eunuch's clothes and cleaned their faces.
The water had been poured into the reservoir, and the person who delivered the water was ready to leave.
"Strange, why are there two people missing?" A guard asked in surprise.”
"Didn't two people go to the outhouse just now?" Another guard replied. Why isn't he back yet?"
"I'll go take a look…"
Lu Xiao and Ping Yuxiao had already escaped from this area of the palace and walked to a more remote place. This place looked like a barren garden. Only when there were very few people passing by did they feel slightly relieved and temporarily stopped in their tracks. They seemed to hear the faint wailing of a woman.
Ping Yuxiao scanned the surroundings with an uneasy gaze and said,""Where is this place? Did you hear something? There's such a place in the palace!"
Lu Xiao hid behind Ping Yuxiao and wrapped his arms around his waist.""It can't be a haunted house, right? I'm afraid of ghosts the most.”
Ping Yuxiao felt that Lu Xiao was hugging him tightly and was not used to it. He tried to shake him off as he said,""Where did the ghost come from? Can you not be so clingy?”At this moment, Ping Yuxiao began to sympathize with Helan Zhixuan. She was constantly pestered by Lu Xiao.
Lu Xiao was forcefully flung away by Ping Yuxiao. This guy's strength seemed to be much stronger than Helan Zhixuan's. "Where is this place? It doesn't look like a palace."”
Ping Yuxiao took out the map hidden in his clothes and said,""It's useless to ask me if I have it. Just look at the map.”
They carefully studied the map, and Ping Yuxiao said,""According to the map, this abandoned garden is near the Cold Palace. In front of it is the Cold Palace where the King's concubines are imprisoned. Behind the Cold Palace is the place where Yin Xianyin told us to meet at midnight.”
"So it's the Cold Palace. No wonder it's so desolate."”
Ping Yuxiao said," I think it's quite safe to stay here. Let's stay here tonight. It's close to the agreed place."”
"What bad luck!" Lu Xiao complained. I'm a person who doesn't have long to live, but I still have to suffer this kind of fatigue. It's really better to stay in Kunlun Mountain and enjoy it.”
" Why didn't you think about it properly back then?" Ping Yuxiao said." It's useless to go back on your word now."”
"Why are you as heartless as Helan Zhixuan! Isn't this for your own good?"
"What do you mean by this? For me?”
"If I hadn't come, you would have been standing here alone without even a companion to talk to. I can't bear to see you alone, so I sacrificed myself to accompany you. Not only are you not touched, but you can't mock me, right?”
"In that case, I really have to thank you.”Ping Yuxiao looked at this expert who was talking glibly and smiled bitterly.
Lu Xiao smiled and looked at the blockhead in front of him.""We all know each other, so there's no need to be so polite! Do you always like to keep a straight face? I've been with you for so long, but it's rare to see you smile?”
Ping Yuxiao was still expressionless and had no interest in chatting with Lu Xiao. He said,""Let's take a look at the surroundings first and be prepared to find the antidote.”
Lu Xiao nodded in boredom.
They came to the side of the Cold Palace and heard the miserable cries of a woman in a room. It made people shudder. They couldn't help but go to the door and poke their fingers through the paper window to find out.
