Shen Nianshu was stunned. She was about to ask the woman, but she didn't expect that the other woman had already turned around and left.

The woman's steps were light, like a floating white cloud, looming in the morning mist. Her back revealed an indescribable elegance and loneliness, and she seemed to be only in her thirties.

Shen Nianshu came back to her senses and followed the woman's back with her eyes, feeling an inexplicable melancholy in her heart.

She sighed softly, turned to Pearl and Caiwei beside her and said, "Let's go see if there is anything to eat in the back."

The two walked through a quiet bamboo forest, and the bamboo leaves swayed gently in the morning breeze, making a rustling sound.

Sunlight shines on the ground through the gaps in the bamboo leaves, forming mottled light and shadow.

Seeing this, Pearl reminded softly, "Mother, we'd better leave quickly. This place is remote and it won't be good if we encounter any danger."

Shen Nianshu smiled slightly and shook her head, "It's broad daylight and it's so peaceful here. How could there be any danger? Let's go, let's go find some food."

This is the back of Leng Palace. Because there is no one to manage it, it is overgrown with weeds and wild fruits everywhere.

Caiwei's eyes lit up and she pointed to a bush of wild fruits not far away, "My dear, look, there are wild fruits there!"

She ran over excitedly, picked off a red wild fruit, and handed it to Shen Nianshu, "Mother, I have eaten this wild fruit before. It should taste good."

Shen Nianshu took the wild fruit and took a bite. It was indeed sweet and delicious, with juice overflowing . She nodded with satisfaction and said to Caiwei, "Yes, this wild fruit is indeed delicious."

The three of them continued walking forward, and after a while, they discovered a field of wild vegetables. The green wild vegetables look particularly fresh and tender in the sun, making people want to pick them.

Shen Nianshu knelt down and carefully selected wild vegetables. Pearl and Caiwei were also very busy. They chatted while picking, and their laughter echoed in the bamboo forest.

After a while, they picked a basket full of wild vegetables and fruits. Although the food was not rich, for Shen Nianshu, it was enough to satisfy her appetite.

At least no matter what, it was much better than the leftovers they gave me, and it could at least fill my stomach.

Shen Nianshu stood up, patted the soil on her hands, and said to Pearl and Caiwei beside her, "Okay, we have picked so many wild vegetables and fruits, and now we have to find a way to make a pot."

Caiwei heard this, her eyes lit up and she said, "My queen, don't worry, I'll take care of it."

Shen Nianshu said, "I still have some money here, take it."

Caiwei took the broken silver handed over by Shen Nianshu with a determined look on her face. She patted her chest and vowed, "It's okay, empress, leave it to me."

In the next few days, Shen Nianshu's life was quite comfortable.

Every morning, she, Pearl and Caiwei would go behind the cold palace to pick fresh wild vegetables and fruits. The sunlight shines on them through the gaps in the bamboo leaves, making them warm and peaceful.

They would wash the food they picked back with water and cook it in the copper pot that Shen Nianshu brought from the palace.

Although the ingredients are simple , the three of them always find fun, and the sound of laughter and conversation fills the entire cold palace.

Suddenly I heard a melodious flute sound coming from the distance.

The melodious sound of the flute seemed to take her back to the distant past, and those beautiful memories and youthful dreams appeared before her eyes.

She closed her eyes and was deeply immersed in this beautiful music.

By the way, how could this voice be so familiar?

Shen Nianshu slowly opened her eyes, the intoxication on her face had not completely dissipated.

She looked up at Caiwei , who was running out of breath , and asked softly, "What's wrong, Caiwei ? What happened?"

Caiwei stopped in front of Shen Nianshu, panting, "My dear, my dear, I heard something!"

Caiwei 's good friend came in with news from outside the cold palace.

She took a deep breath, as if to calm down her excitement, "Do you know why you were suddenly thrown into the cold palace?"

Shen Nianshu was stunned for a moment and shook her head, "I don't know, I never thought about it."

Caiwei nodded, and the mysterious look on her face became more intense, "It's Divine Doctor Xia. He is now a popular person around the emperor. He told the emperor your birth date [expression]️emperor, which is not conducive to the emperor's recovery. I have to go to a place with strong yin energy to help you suppress it."

Shen Nianshu smiled, she should have thought it was hers.

A chill filled Shen Nianshu's heart.

She looked up at the sky in Leng Palace, which was filled with endless oppression and restraint at this moment.

"This place is really easy to get in but hard to get out." She murmured in a low voice, with a trace of determination flashing in her eyes.

She won't give up just like this. She wants to find a way out and regain her freedom. The great revenge has not yet been avenged .

Shen Nianshu felt an inexplicable melancholy in her heart. That woman, the woman who was at the door last time, her figure always appeared in her mind. who is she? Why does it give her such a familiar feeling?

Shen Nianshu sat quietly in the corner of the cold palace, playing with the worn bead chain in her hand. The sunlight filtered through the cracks in the window and shone on her face, reflecting the contemplation in her eyes.

Shen Nianshu thought for a long time , and it seemed that she was the only one.

Shen Nianshu closed her eyes, and that dusty memory came to mind again.

Not long after she entered the palace, news suddenly came out in the palace: the emperor brought back a beautiful woman named Liu Ruyan during a private visit incognito.

Liu Ruyan's beauty caused an uproar in the palace, and all the concubines paid attention to her.

However, on the third day, Liu Ruyan was suddenly thrown into the cold palace, charged with assassinating the emperor. This news shocked the entire harem, but no one knew the real reason.

Whether it is her or not, there is no way of knowing now.

Outside the cold palace, the breeze blew gently and the willow branches swayed. The towering palace walls seem to cut off the hustle and bustle of the world, leaving only silence.

Shen Nianshu stood at the door of Leng Palace, looking far away, and felt an indescribable emotion in her heart.

The palace doors are closed, and life in the cold palace seems to be isolated from the world.

It seemed as if Shen Nianshu had been forgotten in this huge palace, and no one remembered her existence.

Outside the cold palace, it was not Shen Nianwan who received the favor now, but Concubine Yun.

The sun shines diagonally on the glazed tiles of the palace, reflecting dazzling light.

Amidst this splendor, Concubine Yun’s bedroom seemed particularly lively.

Bai Nanyu was personally selecting hair accessories for Concubine Yun at this moment . His hands gently stroked those exquisite jewels, and finally he chose an emerald hairpin inlaid with pearls, and gently inserted it into Concubine Yun's cascading black hair.

Concubine Yun lowered her head and smiled, with happiness sparkling in her eyes.

"Your Majesty, you are so kind to me." Concubine Yun's voice was as gentle as water, with a hint of shyness.

Bai Nanyu looked at her with eyes full of pampering , "You deserve the best in the world."

The two figures intertwined in the sunlight, as if forming a beautiful picture.

"What do you mean? I'm still here!"

As soon as the emperor left, Doctor Xia said gloomily.

"Ah, why are you out now? Be careful, he may not be far away!"

"Do you still have me in your heart now?"

Doctor Xia looked at Concubine Yun, a hint of dissatisfaction flashed in his eyes, but then he regained his composure.

He knew his position very well, and also understood the overall situation in Yun Fei's mind. He sighed softly, stepped forward and held Yun Fei's hand.

"Of course, you have always been the only one in my heart." Yun Fei's eyes became gentle and firm, as if she could see through all the doubts and anxieties in his heart.

She gently stroked Divine Doctor Xia's cheek, her tone full of endearment and tenderness, "It's just a temporary measure with the Emperor, for our future and our plan."

She held Divine Doctor Xia's hand tightly and nodded.

The maid at the door closed the door with a wink, and the atmosphere in the room instantly became ambiguous and warm.

Doctor Xia held Concubine Yun tightly in his arms, and their breaths intertwined as if they were one body.
