Chapter 1109: The Supreme Being
"Okay! If that's the case, then I'll wait until daytime to come back!"
Sure enough, the voice disappeared after finishing speaking.
She stood there and looked around her surroundings. Apart from the whistling wind blowing leaves flying all over the sky, there was only a lonely silence left in the gray night.
"Eh? Why is it so quiet tonight? Logically speaking, there is no reason for it to be so quiet! Why are there no maids? Why are there no guards patrolling the night?"
Not only that, she raised her head and looked around. Even the light of the lanterns hanging under the eaves of the palace above her head seemed unusually weak.
"What's going on? Did I go to the wrong place?"
She rubbed her forehead anxiously, the pounding feeling in her heart making it difficult for her to control it.
"It's better to get out of here first! I must be in the wrong place!"
Thinking of this, she hurriedly walked forward along the corridor of the palace while muttering to herself.
"Even so, why do I feel like I'm still walking in the same place?"
"Ah...Sister, why are you crying?!!!"
Xia Ruyan saw Yao Xianxiu smiling and crying, so she pretended to be shocked and asked her.
"Oh! I... My eyes have been blown by the cold wind for a long time. It feels uncomfortable!"
She quickly raised her hand to wipe her face, pretending to be calm to hide the knotted feeling in her heart.
"Oh...just don't get cold! I also think your whole body looks like ice sticks, maybe it's because the cold wind blows too much!"
Xia Ruyan frowned: "I wonder why my sister likes the cold wind so much?"
"Your eyes are so pretty, like moldy grapes!"
Yao Xianxiu suddenly pursed her lips and smiled, and immediately returned to her previous nonchalant look.
"Really?"
She pretended to be surprised and asked: "Uh...but why do they look like moldy grapes?"
"Hahahahahaha..."
"ah………………"
She looked around at the desolate scene around her. There were some uneven flower beds and grassland not far ahead. Looking at it, it seemed as if there were piles of white bones buried underground, smiling at her mysteriously.
"Here, what's going on?"
She tried hard to search for fragments in her memory, but she couldn't remember when there was such a place in Xiahou Mansion.
"Hehehehehehehe..."
At this time, she saw that the surrounding woods seemed to be smiling ferociously at her with their big black mouths open.
"ah………………"
She only felt waves of chills all over her body, like a tide, rushing straight to the top of her head.
Waves of strange and ferocious laughter came to her ears. The sound seemed to be nonexistent, but it was so clear.
“Ah…………No!”
She held her head and felt that her scalp was numbing, and the fear in her heart continued to make her uncomfortable.
"Let's go! Go quickly!"
At this time, a firm and powerful voice sounded in her ears, and then she felt that after being pulled up by someone, she instantly felt a soaring feeling as she climbed over the dilapidated and thick courtyard wall...
"You...who are you?"
She couldn't help but look up at the person in front of her, but found that his face was covered, so she trembled her lips and teeth and asked in confusion.
"Who do you think I am? Who I am is not important, who you are is the most important thing!"
"ah………………"
"Hey...should we go see her?"
Hongxing asked tentatively to Yingxu outside the palace door. Yingxu curled her lips and said, "The maid is indifferent! It's our turn to panic. Why don't you be here again? The emperor is not in a hurry and the eunuch is anxious to death!"
"But...but we can't just sit idly by in broad daylight, right?"
"Okay, okay! Go ahead and go!"
Yingxu was a little annoyed and sprayed Hongxing with a cat to wash her face, and Hongxing also pouted her lips at a loss.
"My child! I just want to take advantage of the convenience of my legs to go out for more walks these years. I'm really ashamed that I didn't inform you in advance!"
Xia Lingyue smiled: "Since grandma is back today, let's stay a few more days! Then how did you know that I was in the palace? Who brought you in?"
Nanny Lin smiled mysteriously: "Since I have reached this age, I must have a few old acquaintances! I have been hanging around the palaces of princes all my life. Isn't it possible that I can't go to the palace?"
"oh………………"
Seeing that what she said was so reasonable, Xia Lingyue stopped asking any more questions.
"I think so! That's why I say you are awesome, mama!"
During the conversation, she picked up the teapot and poured two more cups of tea.
"Mommy, Yue'er came back late today, so I'm neglecting you! Let's warm up with a cup of hot tea first!"
She took a few steps, handed the tea cup to Granny Lin, and returned to her original position.
"She asked me directly about the golden gourd. Hasn't the golden gourd been in her hands since she first discovered it?"
Thinking of this, the corners of her lips raised slightly, forming a cold arc.
"It seems that to find this golden gourd, you really need a miracle of destiny!"
She couldn't help but sigh slightly when she thought of this.
"I'm so excited looking for that golden gourd! I can't even open any pot! Hahaha..."
After watching the figure of Nanny Lin outside the door walking away briskly, Xia Lingyue finally felt relieved.
"Okay! Just do what you say!"
However, after a while, a shout came from outside the palace wall in the distance: "The Crown Princess has arrived..."
Such a cry seemed both cold and powerful in the clear sky and daylight.
"ah………………"
She looked around at the desolate scene around her. There were some uneven flower beds and grassland not far ahead. Looking at it, it seemed as if there were piles of white bones buried underground, smiling at her mysteriously.
"Here, what's going on?"
She tried hard to search for fragments in her memory, but she couldn't remember when there was such a place in Xiahou Mansion.
"Hehehehehehehe..."
