The palace is big, magnificent, and swallows mountains and rivers.
Under the leadership of the palace people, Mu Nuan soon came to the Agarwood Hall where Princess Chaoyang lived, and saw her greeted her enthusiastically from a distance, wearing a bright and dazzling silver-red soft smoke Luo pleated skirt, stepped forward to hold Mu Nuan's hand, and bloomed with a smile like a flower.
"Sister Nuan, I heard that you entered the palace today, I thought it was my mother who teased me, but I didn't want to really come" Princess Chaoyang jumped up and down like a flying butterfly, she was not as weak as Xu Guifei and Li Xun, but she was active since she was a child, her temperament was eccentric, and she was very lovely, and she was very favored by the emperor.
Mu Nuan saluted as usual: "I've seen Princess Chaoyang." ” "See Princess Chaoyang."
Mu Xueying also followed the well-behaved salute, and by the way, she raised her eyes and glanced at Princess Chaoyang, seeing that she was clasping Mu Nuan's hand tightly, and there was no princess shelf at all.
Yahuan and other palace people who followed Mu Nuan into the palace also saluted.
"Why be polite with me, let's go in and talk."
Princess Chaoyang and Mu Nuanqing were sisters, and they took her hand directly and pulled them into the main hall, while Mu Xueying on the side didn't take a few more looks, and didn't even bother to ask the name.
After entering the dormitory, Mu Nuan and Princess Chaoyang sat next to each other on the couch casually, and Mu Xueying stood not far away, looking down at the ground.
The more Princess Chaoyang looked at Mu Nuan, the more happy she became, and whispered in her ear: "Sister Nuan, today is really the sun hitting the west and coming out, how did I say that you didn't want to go out half a step before, but today you actually entered the palace, is it because of the words I said last time?"
In the past two years, Mu Nuan has a depressed temperament, and Princess Chaoyang often goes to comfort her, bring her some fresh gadgets, or tell some funny jokes, but she has not seen her get better, and she is also extremely worried.
Mu Nuan straightened up, pulled her and couldn't wait to ask: "I was about to ask you, you mentioned it last time, Brother Xun."
"Shhhh ” "Yes."
The palace people responded in unison, and then cautiously retreated.
At the same time, Mu Nuan also took away Mu Xueying and Shui Se, and only the two sisters were left in the palace to talk with confidence.
"You mentioned that Brother Xun may have been murdered," Mu Nuan asked.
Princess Chaoyang lowered her voice and pouted her two willow eyebrows: "I don't know very well, but recently I heard rumors among the palace maids, they said that the Antai Palace is haunted" Antai Palace is the palace where Li Xun lived from childhood to adulthood, although he had the title of Jingwangfu before his engagement with Mu Nuan, he had not had time to move away because of his inconvenience, so he also died in Antai Palace when he died, since his death, the emperor ordered to block the palace gate, and no one has been in or out since then, and it has almost been abandoned until today.
"Haunted" Mu Nuan, who heard the word, was a little unresponsive for a while.
Princess Chaoyang recounted again: "Well, it is said that a few days ago, the Antai Palace was blocked but found that someone died in the palace mysteriously, and the death was tragic, and some people saw an empty wheelchair walking back and forth in the palace in the middle of the night, which was extremely weird, they said that my imperial brother was killed at the beginning, and now the soul has come back to take revenge and ask for his life." ” Mu Nuan was a little incredulous when she heard it: "Brother Xun's ghost is back" "I was planning to let people in in these two days, but I didn't expect you to enter the palace."
In fact, the palace people heard that there were ghosts, and no one dared to go because they were scared, so they delayed.
"Wouldn't it be nice for me to see for myself."
When Princess Chaoyang heard this, she hurriedly stopped her: "Don't, I heard that ghosts are scary, it is likely that their faces are miserable, the seven orifices are bleeding, the flesh and blood are blurred, and the corpses are separated" Tsk, she felt terrible when she thought about the royal brother who looked like that, and the hairs on her body were bundled.
"Brother Xun will harm me, I'm not afraid."
Mu Nuan didn't mean to be scared at all, it seemed that even if she was a ghost, as long as she could see Li Xun, she would be willing.
Mu Nuan picked up the shoulders of Princess Chaoyang beside her, looked directly into her eyes, and pleaded, "The haunted thing is still a rumor, I don't know if it's true or not, let's go and find out together."
Princess Chaoyang was numb by her, shrunk her shoulders, and asked knowingly: "Where to go?"
"Of course, it's a night visit to Antai Palace, don't you want to meet Brother Xun?"
"I think I want to, but the imperial brother, he is lying in the imperial mausoleum."
Yes, the one buried in the grave is the imperial brother, and she saw the imperial brother buried with her own eyes.
"Maybe it's really Brother Xun's ghost back, in case he has some grievances and wants us to help." “” "Why, are you afraid of ghosts, I thought you were Princess Chaoyang who was not afraid of heaven and earth."
"Who said I'm scared" After Mu Nuan's words, Princess Chaoyang really didn't have a move, so she had to compromise and said, "Just go, but now there are many people, and going there is too eye-catching." ” Mu Nuan immediately said: "Of course, I heard that ghosts haunt at night, we can wait until it gets dark before we go, let Ying Ying go back and bring a letter first, just say that you are reluctant to let me go, leave me in the palace to play with you for two days, presumably my mother and aunt will not object." ” "You, you are so thoughtful" Princess Chaoyang twitched the corners of her mouth with a smile, and said, looking at Mu Nuan's appearance, should she really believe that Li Xun's ghost is back, it's been two years, it's rare to see her so interested, just give up this life and accompany her on this trip.
"The gate of Antai Palace has been locked, how can we get in" Princess Chaoyang looked at the corner of the roof with her cheeks up, thinking in a daze, and seemed to be very distressed.
Mu Nuan was careless: "There will be places in this palace that your Princess Chaoyang can't go" “” Later, Princess Chaoyang and Mu Nuan discussed the details of the night visit to Antai Palace in the palace, but after a long time, they instructed Mu Xueying to go back to deliver the letter first.
Mu Xueying had to leave the Agarwood Hall under the leadership of the palace people, walked outside the palace gate and looked back at the palace, and couldn't help but think about when she could live in such a beautiful palace, with fine clothes and food every day, and want to be luxurious and rich in the world On the way back, Mu Xueying's heart was blocked, this way, until she passed through a palace alley, she saw the golden light shining on the opposite side from a distance, and a large team of people came to meet her, the eunuchs and palace maids were surrounded before and after, it was the queen who was dressed in a bright yellow woven gold dragon and phoenix pattern wide-sleeved brocade robe, over forty years old but looked energetic, radiant, dignified and elegant, sitting high on the phoenix chariot, there was a silk canopy embroidered with a hundred birds and a phoenix, and Xu Xing came.
Mu Xueying saw the queen herself, only to feel like a spring breeze, solemn and respectful, nervously knelt down with the palace people around her, and waited for the queen to come to her before bowing and saluting: "The courtiers meet the queen." ” The queen didn't look sideways, but just glanced at Mu Xueying with her spare eyes, and seemed to be a little interested, so she moved the jade to pause, and asked lightly: "Who is this girl, why does it look a little familiar?"
Mu Xueying thought that the queen was just passing by, but unexpectedly asked herself, and hurriedly kowtowed again, and replied: "Mu Xueying, the eldest granddaughter of Mu Zichun's family, the secretary of the ministry, knocked to see the queen's mother." ” The queen pondered for a moment, and at the same time said slowly: "Mu Xueying, what is the relationship between you and Miss Mu Shinuan?"
"Mu Nuan is the sister-in-law of the courtier."
When Mu Xueying answered, she secretly pondered, she had heard that Mu Nuan was famous before, but she didn't expect to be so famous, and even the queen casually mentioned it.
"No wonder I look a little like her."
After speaking, a trace of disdain flashed in the queen's eyes, snorted coldly, and left with her sleeves in her arms.
After walking out of a section, the queen called the maid of the personal palace to give a look, and the maid retreated with understanding.
Here Mu Xueying lowered her head, and only dared to get up from the ground after seeing the queen's back go away, she knelt for a while and only felt a pain in her knees, leaned over and reached out to rub her knees.
Thinking of the queen's words, she still had a little panic in her heart, many people used to say that she looked like Mu Nuan, but now even the queen said so when she saw her, thinking that she would spend her whole life in the shadow of Mu Nuan's skin, she hated herself a little for having this good-looking face.
"Miss Mu, this is a reward from the queen mother."
Mu Xueying was slandering, and suddenly looked up when she heard the sound, and saw the palace maid who had followed the queen's side before, standing in front of her with a brocade box at the moment.

She hurriedly saluted, took the brocade box with both hands, and said with some flattery: "Thank you for the reward from the queen." ” With a gentle smile on her face, the palace maid approached Mu Xueying's side and asked, "Miss Mu, did you enter the palace alone?"
Mu Xueying was overjoyed when she received the reward, and at this moment she felt a little more kind to the palace maid in front of her, and replied truthfully: "I entered the palace with my grandmother and sister-in-law." ” "Then why don't you see them?"
Mu Xueying replied: "Grandmother is accompanying the concubine, and my sister-in-law went to find Princess Chaoyang." ” "You know, what is the important thing for Miss Nuan to find Princess Chaoyang?"
Mu Xueying frowned, pondered for a moment, and replied, "She said to thank Princess Chaoyang" Seeing that the question was almost over, the palace maid nodded with a smile, saluted, and was about to say goodbye and leave.
Mu Xueying suddenly remembered something, hurriedly pulled her, and took the initiative to add: "I heard my sister-in-law and Princess Chaoyang mention that they are going to Antai Palace at night, I don't know what it means." ” "Thank you, Miss Mu."
The palace maid stopped at the right time, didn't ask much, and left after tossing and turning, only to give everything she heard to the queen.
In the Weiyang Palace, Queen Wei sat on the phoenix couch, her eyes were full of cruelty, and she said disdainfully: "Xu Yurou, that slut, has fallen to this step and still wants to fight against the palace, she thinks that she can hum again by climbing King Zhao, and she is daydreaming." ” King Zhao is the only brother of the Emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty today, who has made great achievements in the north and south, and has military power in hand, has a prominent prestige in the court, and is deeply trusted by the emperor, but this person has a cold and arrogant personality, some unapproachable, and it is difficult for ordinary people to get along with him.
The queen has tried to win over King Zhao many times, hoping to stabilize the future of her emperor, but she is always rejected.
"Niangniang means to ruin that marriage" "Hmph, this palace has long seen that Mu Nuan is not pleasing to the eye, it is better to open the knife with her, and see what else the Xu family can do to fight with me" "Mother is very right."
As he was talking, he heard a man's voice burst out: "Haha, the queen mother wants to deal with that Mu Nuan, it's better to leave this matter to Erchen to do, how about it" The queen raised her eyes and saw that it was the crown prince Li Zhang, dressed in a yellow and black brocade robe, with a fat figure, an obscene face, and a sinister and cunning smile on his face.
"It turned out that the emperor came, but she was an unarmed girl from a family, and she didn't need the emperor to do it himself."
When the queen saw Li Zhang, her gaze softened a little.
Li Zhang said with great interest: "The queen mother doesn't know, Erchen once showed favor to Mu Nuan when she was young, but she didn't know what to do, in order to die that waste person actually rejected me, Erchen has been holding a grudge for many years, and has long wanted to teach her a lesson." ” The queen squinted, pondered for a moment, and chuckled: "It's okay, I heard the news, tonight Mu Nuan and the Chaoyang Duke are going to visit Antai Palace at night, and the emperor can find an opportunity to start, but it is best to avoid the ghost girl in Chaoyang." ” At night, in the harem with high walls and red tiles, the surroundings are pitch black, deathly silent, and the cool breeze of the autumn night sweeps the dead leaves on the ground, blowing the empty alleys and whining, looking depressed and deserted.
On the side wall of Antai Palace, there are several black shadows shaking.
"Hold steady, if the palace falls, can you afford it" Because the wooden ladder under her feet swayed, Princess Chaoyang buried her head and scolded the palace maid.
"Yes, Your Highness Princess."
The long wooden ladder was supported by the two small palace maids and Mu Nuan's personal maids, Mu Nuan and Princess Chaoyang were also wearing the clothes of the palace maids, and finally climbed over the palace wall and entered the Antai Palace.
Princess Chaoyang glanced around, only to feel that it was dark and lightless, eerie and terrifying, and she was so frightened that she hid behind Mu Nuan.
"Sister Nuan, it's so weird here, otherwise, let's go back" Mu Nuan clasped his hands and sighed: "If you are really scared, it is better to stay here and wait, and I will go in alone." ” Princess Chaoyang glared: "Then what's the matter, if I leave you alone to go in, if something happens, my imperial brother won't crawl out of the imperial tomb and strangle me."
"Then are you afraid of his ghost, or are you afraid that he will crawl out of the imperial tomb."
"I, I'll go in with you" Princess Chaoyang straightened up, swallowed her saliva, and walked ahead boldly.
Shui Se looked around and was actually scared so much that he didn't dare to go in, and looked at Mu Nuan with pleading eyes: "Girl, should we go in too?"
Mu Nuan commanded: "If you are afraid, just wait here." ” So, in the end, the only ones who dared to go in were Mu Nuan and Princess Chaoyang. gd1806102:
