Chapter 37 Happy cooperation

In the dark night, Shen Nianshu looked at Bai Nanyi. Shen Nianshu's eyes were firm, and her voice sounded particularly clear in the silent night, "Okay, I promise to cooperate with you, and I will achieve whatever I want."

Then he continued, "But it's up to you to get both of us out safely."

The night was deep, and the lights of the palace flickered in the night, as if the stars in the sky had fallen into the mortal world.

Bai Nanyu was wearing a dragon robe and had a serious face. He stood in front of the palace gate, followed by a group of palace ladies, eunuchs, and three concubines: Concubine Yun, Concubine Huang, and Concubine Shun. They were each dressed in luxurious palace attire, with different faces, but they all carried a sense of solemnity and expectation.

The imperial doctors wore uniform robes, held medicine boxes, and walked hurriedly. Their faces were full of tension and concentration. The team set off slowly, the sound of horse hooves and wheels intertwined, breaking the tranquility of the night.

The palace lanterns swayed in the night, illuminating the way forward and everyone's faces.

Shen Nianwan was about to board the carriage and ride in the same carriage as Bai Nanyu . Suddenly, a gust of wind came and Concubine Yun walked over.

Concubine Yun was dressed in splendid clothes, and the hem of her skirt swayed gently with her steps, like a blooming peony. Her face was delicate, and there was a sense of coldness and nobility between her eyebrows, but there was also a vague smile hanging on the corner of her lips, which was unpredictable.

She walked up to Shen Nianwan, raised her eyebrows slightly, and said in a soft but dignified voice, "Does my sister also want to go together?"

Shen Nianwan was slightly startled.

Concubine Yun smiled faintly, with an imperceptible meaning flashing in her eyes. She nodded slightly, turned around and walked towards the carriage.

In the night, the carriage drove slowly, and the lantern in front of the carriage swayed in the breeze, emitting a faint and warm light. Shen Nianwan looked at the carriage and couldn't help but hesitate. At this time, Concubine Yun's voice brushed against her ears like a cold wind, "The carriage can't accommodate three people, and I am pregnant. My sister, why don't you squeeze into one with me?"

Shen Nianwan turned her head to look at Concubine Yun, and saw the corners of her mouth raised slightly, and her eyes shining with pride. Shun Guiren stood aside, with a bit of embarrassment and helplessness on his face. Shen Nianwan knew in her heart that this was Concubine Yun's deliberate attempt to make things difficult, but she could not refute it.

"Your Majesty..." Shen Nianwan said looking at Bai Nanyu .

"I think what Concubine Yun said is reasonable."

After saying that, he and Concubine Yun got into the carriage.

Shen Nianwan took a deep breath, nodded, and walked to the other carriage silently. She boarded the carriage and sat opposite Shungui.

The carriage was dark and narrow, and the two of them were squeezed together, which seemed a little cramped. Shen Nianwan looked out at the palace in the night through the car window, feeling an inexplicable sadness in her heart.

Shen Nianwan was sitting in the bumpy carriage, feeling uneasy. She looked through the gap in the car window at the brightly lit palace that was gradually getting further away, and a complex emotion surged in her heart.

"I haven't become a queen yet, why are you dragging me?" She murmured to herself, with a bit of disdain and ridicule in her voice.

Thinking of Concubine Yun's triumphant look, Shen Nianwan felt upset. She held the handkerchief tightly , as if she wanted to crush the anger and unwillingness.

The carriage moved forward slowly in the night, and the sound of rolling wheels was particularly clear in the silent street.

Shen Nianwan closed her eyes and tried to calm down the emotions in her heart. She knew that she couldn't be defeated by Concubine Yun like this , she had more important things to do.

The night became darker and darker, and Shen Nianshu stood in the shadow of a side hall. Her figure looked firm and lonely in the moonlight. Bai Nanyi approached quietly, his footsteps light, as if he was afraid of disturbing the tranquility of the night.

"Have you finished cleaning up? Let's go." His voice was low and magnetic, which seemed particularly clear in the night.

Shen Nianshu turned around. There was not much expression on her face, but there was a firm light in her eyes. She nodded and said softly, "Everything is ready."

"But I'm still a little worried," Shen Nianshu said softly, "What if someone comes here after leaving?"

"Don't worry, I have already made arrangements." He whispered, his tone revealing an unquestionable confidence.

"Come in." Bai Nanyi said to the door .

The door slowly opened and two people walked in side by side.

Shen Nianshu's eyes fell on the visitor and she was instantly stunned.

I saw the two of them standing side by side. Their faces were exactly the same as hers and Caiwei's, and their heights were also almost the same.

The moonlight shines on their faces, as if they have been covered with a mysterious veil.

Shen Nianshu stood stunned on the spot, her eyes full of disbelief.

She had imagined various possible substitutes, but never imagined that there would be someone so similar.

This was simply God's arrangement, allowing them to escape from the shackles of the palace.

She took a deep breath and tried to calm down her excitement, with a determined light flashing in her eyes.

She turned to look at Bai Nanyi.

Shen Nianshu's eyes widened, as if she had seen something incredible.

She stretched out her hand and rubbed her eyes, and looked carefully again. It was really almost exactly the same as her and Caiwei .

"What...what's going on?" she asked stammering.

Bai Nanyi smiled slightly, with a wise light shining in his eyes. He gently patted Shen Nianshu's shoulder, signaling her to calm down.

"This is the stand-in I specially prepared for you," he explained in a low voice. "This way, even if someone notices that you are missing, they will not easily become suspicious."

"You know the Zhongyuan face-changing technique? The two of them just put on the same human skin masks as you two."

As soon as Bai Nanyi finished speaking, an astonishing picture appeared in Shen Nianshu's mind.

Shen Nianshu looked at Bai Nanyi in shock, her eyes full of disbelief.

"The Zhongyuan face-changing technique... is really magical." She murmured to herself, full of curiosity and awe about this mysterious technique.

At this time, the stand-in women had already changed into the clothes of Shen Nianshu and Cai Wei , and their movements and expressions tried their best to imitate the two of them, as if they were really themselves.

The night was dark, and the moonlight fell like water on the corners of the palace. Shen Nianshu stood in the shadow of the side hall, her eyes fixed on the two substitute women in front of her. Their faces looked extremely clear under the moonlight , almost identical to hers and Caiwei's.

Bai Nanyi's voice sounded in her ears, low and mysterious, "But it can only last for three hours at a time. Logically speaking, that's enough."

Shen Nianshu nodded, feeling an inexplicable excitement in her heart. She knew that this was a crucial step for them to escape from the palace. As long as the stand-in woman can hide it from everyone during this period , they will have a chance to get out.
