Chapter 353: The buried concubine VS the ruthless and romantic emperor 1
Yu Yao slowly woke up in the chaos. When she slowly opened her eyes and saw the surrounding scene clearly, the gloomy and depressive atmosphere made her heart skip a beat. Suddenly skipped a beat.
The palace is gloomy and depressing, with complex patterns carved on the surrounding walls, casting strange shadows in the dim light.
Many beauties were kneeling around, their faces pale, and the pear blossoms were crying like broken flowers. Their sad cries echoed in this dead space.
“Woo hoo hoo… I don’t want to die, I’m still so young.”
The beauties are all dressed in plain clothes and wearing white flowers on their heads. Their expressions are hollow and they look miserable.
Yu Yao's eyebrows were beating, and she quickly scanned the surroundings. She saw at least twenty or thirty beauties present, and above each beauty's head hung a white silk ribbon symbolizing death, as if They are life-threatening ropes.
The eunuchs shuttled among them like evil ghosts, with cold and ferocious expressions, mercilessly forcing these beauties to hang themselves.
"Ah...please, let me go, I don't want to die..."
"Some beauties have their necks wrapped in white silk, and their limbs are waving wildly. He was struggling wildly and unwillingly, and his face was so terrifying that it was terrifying.
Obviously, this is a gruesome burial site.
Yu Yao was so frightened that her face turned pale, what’s going on? When this happens, do you want it to be so exciting?
She reacted quickly and shouted in her heart: "Everyone, please transfer the plot memory to me."
"Okay, I will transfer it to you now."
The system responded, and a massive amount of plots and memories flooded into her mind.
She had a splitting headache before she could process the massive amount of information in her mind.
I felt like my head was roughly inserted into the life-threatening white silk by a eunuch.
The instinct to survive caused the power in her body to explode instantly, and she kicked the eunuch with all her strength.
The eunuch was kicked in the abdomen, and the flesh on his face shook violently. He screamed in pain, and his fat body fell to the ground like a heavy sack.
Yu Yao had no time to care about the eunuch's life and death, so she hurriedly jumped down while the stool under her feet was still there.
Whether it was because she had been kneeling for too long or because she was too frightened, her legs were a little weak, but her strong desire to survive drove her to escape from this gloomy hall like crazy.
The eunuch who was kicked to the ground by her quickly struggled to get up, cursing: "You do not know how to live and die, you dare to run away. The late emperor had a decree, and the concubines who have not given birth to heirs are all You have to be buried, you can't escape, even if you go to the end of the world, we will catch you!"
She quickly ran out of the hall and ran as fast as she could in the corridor.
The pillars of the cloister are carved with exquisite dragon and phoenix patterns, and the vermilion paint shines with an eerie luster under the moonlight.
It contrasts with the plain white surroundings, adding a bit of eerie and strange atmosphere.
In the distance, Yu Yao vaguely heard the eunuch cursing and shouting.
The late emperor had a purpose?
All concubines who have not given birth to children must be buried?
As soon as her mind turned around, she understood something in her heart.
If the guess is correct, the identity of this body should be that of the late emperor's concubine, and she has not given birth to any children.
Now the old emperor passed away. Before his death, he left his last words to bury his concubines who had not given birth to any heirs.
“Damn it, you actually have a sacrificial burial system, it’s so inhumane.”
She cursed as she ran.
Understanding that she was going to be buried, the wind blew under my feet and I ran faster,
“Don’t run, stop.”
The eunuch's angry voice followed closely behind him.
Yu Yao stopped because she was stupid and ran faster.
The eunuch could not catch up with her, and his face was livid with anger. He raised his hand and pointed at the young eunuchs standing on both sides: "You all go and catch her. If she escapes, the emperor will blame you. We all have nothing to eat.”
“Yes, Eunuch Li.”
The young eunuchs responded respectfully, and then they all went to arrest people.
Yu Yao caught a glimpse of a large group of people chasing after her, and her heart trembled with fear.
She turned left and right, and bumped into a palace maid at the corner. The tray the palace maid was carrying was knocked away, and the exquisite porcelain shattered on the floor.
"You damn bitch, don't run, stop right here."
The eunuchs chasing her were getting closer and closer, and they were still cursing.
Her heart jumped into her throat. She hurriedly apologized to the palace maid, then quickly got up and rushed forward.
She didn't know where she ran, she was just running around.
In panic, she rushed into a garden and quickly shuttled among the flowers.
She saw a door ahead, and there seemed to be a faint light inside, and her steps paused slightly. But then, when he turned around and saw a group of eunuchs chasing after him, he gritted his teeth and quickly rushed into the door.
She had no idea that this was the Palace of Supreme Harmony, the palace of the new emperor Jingdi Rongyuan.
The group of eunuchs who were catching up behind them stopped instantly and looked at the Hall of Supreme Harmony in front of them with horror on their faces.
A young eunuch said in panic: "Eunuch Li, what should we do? Concubine Yu ran into the emperor's palace."
Other young eunuchs also looked at each other, with beads of sweat appearing on their foreheads. beads.
No one dares to break into the new emperor's palace unless his life is at stake.
Eunuch Li’s face looked ugly, and he didn’t know what to do at this moment.
After thinking about it for a while, he said: "Let's wait here first. That cheap servant can't hide there all the time. The late emperor ordered that he be buried, and not even the emperor can disobey it."
"Yes, father-in-law." . ”
These eunuchs were waiting outside the Hall of Supreme Harmony.
The gate of Taihe Hall was ajar, but Yu Yao rushed in easily.
When you see the tall and majestic building, the vermilion pillars exude a solemn atmosphere.
Although the furnishings in the palace are luxurious, it looks particularly cold and lonely due to the night and plain white decoration.
Under the moonlight, the exquisite porcelain and carved screens reflected mottled shadows, adding to the sense of unreality.
With her many years of palace career, Yu Yao instantly judged that this was the emperor's palace.
Oops, why are you here?
She wanted to exit, but thought of the group of eunuchs waiting outside, she hesitated again.
Forget it, let's find a place to hide first.
She was about to find a place to hide when a slight sound of footsteps came from a distance, accompanied by a faint smell of ambergris, which made her heart jump into her throat instantly.
She hurriedly scanned the hall and caught a glimpse of the large dragon bed not far away. Her eyes were slightly bright, and she quickly hid under the bed to block her breathing.
The footsteps are getting closer.
“Who’s there?”
A low and magnetic voice sounded, carrying a majesty that could not be ignored.
It was Rong Yuan, the newly enthroned Emperor Jing.
Yu Yao hid under the dragon bed, not daring to breathe out. She covered her mouth tightly for fear of making any sound, and of course she couldn't see the emperor's face.
Seeing that there was no movement, Rong Yuan snorted coldly, "Come here, hold the lamp."
Soon, several palace ladies filed in and lit the candles in the palace one by one.
As the candles in the hall were lit one by one, the soft and dim light dispelled the original coldness and loneliness, illuminating the Hall of Supreme Harmony into a solemn and inexplicable sense of warmth.
She hid under the dragon bed, her heart beating like a drum. She curled up as much as possible to reduce her presence, praying secretly not to be discovered.
Rong Yuan stood in the center of the hall, scanning the surroundings, trying to capture the unusual aura.
Smelling the faint scent of rouge remaining in the air, you knew it was a woman.
A playful smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. He was both surprised and amused by this sudden "visitor".
He is a romantic man, and all the women in the palace are attracted to him.
Now there is a woman who does not know the heights of heaven and earth. She dares to break into his palace when he takes the throne. She is really bold.
But it also piqued his interest.
"Your Majesty, do you want to search?"
A palace maid asked softly, with a bit of caution in her voice.
Rong Yuan raised his eyebrows slightly, with a playful smile on his lips.
He did not answer directly, but walked slowly to the dragon bed, his eyes scanning the shadows under the bed intentionally or unintentionally, as if he had already seen everything.
"No need, maybe it's a lost kitten."
His voice is low, slightly hoarse, and inexplicably sexy. With unquestionable majesty.
Hearing this, the palace maids looked at each other in disbelief, and then respectfully withdrew, and the palace regained its tranquility.
Rong Yuan walked to the bed slowly.
