Lan'er sighed old-fashionedly: "It's a long time to talk about it. Ziyan used to have a good relationship with the empress. Later, when the empress entered the palace, Ziyan didn't deal with the empress very much."
After bringing Rong Changan into the palace, he told the story of his struggle with Ziyan.
Of course, this is just Lan'er describing the whole thing from her own point of view, she is neither partial to Ziyan nor Rong Changan, and Zixuan is also a little confused.
"It turns out that the empress has been fighting with Ziyan for so long. This Fengwu Palace was originally where Ziyan lived and then moved out. Lan'er, what kind of person do you think Ziyan is?"
Lan'er squinted and thought for a while: "I don't know either! Anyway, I like the empress more than Ziyan noble concubine."
But because of personal preferences, can we judge a person's quality
Perhaps, the goblins and witches in people's legends are just imposed on Ziyan by people. The winner and loser, Rong Chang'an, who won the court battle, naturally tried to demonize Ziyan as much as possible, so that everyone would stay away from her . However, no one knew about Zi Yan's true character.
"Thank you, Lan'er. I just came to Dajing Kingdom and the court, so I don't know much about many things, so I need you to give me some pointers in the future."
Lan'er smiled and said: "Princess Zixuan, you are being polite. As long as the princess needs it, the slave will be by your side at any time. Otherwise, Queen Rong will scold me."
Zixuan sent Lan'er away, but her heart murmured again. What people say is just people's opinion, I have to meet this Ziyan noble concubine in person to see what kind of person she is.
After making up her mind to pay attention, taking advantage of the darkness of the night and the darkness of the stars and moon, Zixuan came to the gate of Jiao Palace with only one maidservant, which was the maidservant she brought from Tianchi Kingdom.
The old crow on the old locust tree was still screaming, the back of the tree was dark, and gusts of dark wind came out from the door, making one's hair stand on end.
"Princess, do we really want to go in?" The maid's hands and feet were trembling.
Zixuan looked at the servant girl strangely: "You think I'm talking big! I don't believe it, there is a witch living in this palace."
The maid said: "Why do we have to meet this person! Whether she is a goblin or a human, it has nothing to do with us."
Zixuan snorted: "Of course it's related! She used to be the owner of Fengwu Palace, but now she moved to the remote Jiaogong. I really want to know what happened during this period. So tonight, we must It's impossible to see her."
The maid shuddered: "But why do I feel so terrified?"
"What are you afraid of? I'm by your side!" Zixuan raised her chin, "Come with me!"
The two walked into the Pepper Palace. Jiao Palace is a deserted palace, there are no guards to guard it, and there are no other eunuchs to take care of it, and Ziyan only has Qingqing close by her side.
The lights in the Pepper Palace were very dim, and if it wasn't for the maid carrying a lantern, Zi Xuan would have fallen over the threshold. That gloomy aura became more intense as Zixuan stepped into the door.
"Princess, let's... let's leave! I can't even move my legs." The maid said in a voice almost crying.
Zixuan's gaze was very firm: "What are you afraid of? Since we have already entered the first door, we will enter the second door, and then the third door until we see Zi Yan."
When I came to the door of the sleeping hall, the hall was lit with dim candlelight. Zixuan was about to go in when she suddenly heard a weak voice from behind calling:
"I've been waiting for you for a long time, and you're finally here!"
Zixuan was taken aback, her body trembled slightly, and she looked back. I saw a woman in a feather coat standing in the corridor under the light, not much older than Zixuan, with a pink face as handsome as a peach blossom, a pointed chin, a little cinnabar mark between her eyebrows, and two arched eyebrows Curved, thin, with a shallow smile in the corners of the eyes and mouth.
Next to Ziyan was Qingqing, the servant girl she saw during the day.
Zixuan was a little dazed, and pointed to herself: "You... are you waiting for me?"
Zi Yan showed her teeth as white as shellfish: "Yes, I'm waiting for you." As she said that, she had come to Zi Xuan like a cloud.
"Wait...wait for me to do? You...you know me?" Zixuan's first impression was that Ziyan was not as evil as Rong Chang'an said, with a very kind smile on her face, and she was also beautiful and kind. Unlike Rong Chang'an's beauty, which is so extraordinary and refined that it makes people feel unreal.
Ziyan has already held Zixuan's hand, and Ziyan's hand is a little cold.
"You are the princess of Tianchi Kingdom, why don't I recognize you! Your name is Zixuan, and I'm Ziyan. We were a family five hundred years ago!" Ziyan laughed at her own joke, covering her mouth and giggling, but Zixuan was still in shock and didn't laugh.
After Qingqing brought herbal tea to Ziyan today, she told her about meeting Zixuan.
Ziyan was very angry, not long after she moved out, Zixuan occupied Fengwu Palace! You know, Fengwu Palace was specially built by Li Hai for her. Zi Yan is extremely possessive, how could she allow others to occupy her palace! Just as she was about to go to Fengwu Palace to yell at her, she heard Qingqing say that living there was a foreign princess named Zixuan, Ziyan frowned, and an evil thought took root in her heart.
She can use Zixuan to bring down Rong Changan!
"Come on, come on! Let's go inside and talk, it's windy outside at night, it's very cold!"
Zixuan didn't know how she got into the bedroom at all.
The host and guest sit down, and Qingqing pours tea for them.
Zixuan said: "I know that Fengwu Palace used to be the place where the noble concubine lived, but now I occupy it, and I feel very sorry. After a while, I will ask the emperor to let me move out and find another place."
Ziyan twitched her lips and smiled: "Princess, what are you talking about! You live and I live, don't they all live in the same way! Besides, we all start with the word purple, and we should be two sisters in the previous life. The older sister let the younger sister live. Good house, that's what it should be. Don't tell the emperor, just live in it!" Suddenly, Zi Yan's eyes sank, "It's just that I have something to say, I don't know if I should say it or not."
Zixuan hurriedly asked: "What are you talking about?"
Ziyan looked at Qingqing beside her: "Go out, I want to talk to the princess about something."
"Yes!" Qingqing walked out.
Zixuan also ordered her maid to go out.
"What does the imperial concubine have to say, can I say it now?"
Zi Yan's face was serious and a little frightened: "I don't know, princess, are you used to living in Fengwu Palace?"
Zixuan replied casually: "Are you quite used to living here?"
Zi Yan smiled slightly: "Princess, tell me the truth! Is it really a habit? Didn't you see anything you shouldn't see at night?"
Zixuan lowered her head and bit her red lips: "Is there anything that Ziyan noble concubine thinks she can see at night in Fengwu Palace?"
Zi Yan stood up: "Princess, don't lie to me! I lived in Fengwu Palace and know what's going on inside. Let me just say it, you didn't see anything unclean at night?"
"Ah..." Zixuan swallowed her saliva and stared at her starry eyes in surprise. She thought what she saw was just a dream, "Isn't it clean?"
Zi Yan's eyes suddenly turned cold: "That's right, it's just unclean things! I reluctantly moved out of Fengwu Palace just because I saw something unclean."
Zixuan was terrified: "Then... what is that unclean thing?"
Zi Yan said: "It's a ghost!"
"A ghost?!" Zixuan covered her mouth, as if she would really attract a ghost if she shouted these two words, "How could there be a ghost?"
