Chapter 360: This is the Palace

Chen Yuntang looked towards the end of the path. There was the main room in the courtyard, with brightly lit inside.

She glanced at Bai Rui, but Bai Rui ignored her.

Chen Yuntang frowned and turned around and walked towards the main room in the courtyard. She walked several steps before turning around. Seeing Bai Rui still standing in place, Chen Yuntang frowned even tighter. It seemed that Bai Rui's task was probably to send her here. As for the ones next to her, he would not care about it anymore.

This unknown made Chen Yuntang feel more nervous and nervous.

But at this time when I arrived at this yard, I could only take one step at a time. For her, there was no way out here.

She looked forward, no longer looking at Bai Rui in the distance behind her, took a deep breath, and walked towards the main room.

When they arrived in front of the brightly lit main room, the door was open. Chen Yuntang carefully looked inside and saw two young maids standing on both sides of the door. When they saw her coming, they squatted to salute her, but they didn't say a word.

Chen Yuntang's frowns had never let go. After seeing these two maids, he became more vigilant.

She stood in front of them, waited before asking, "Do you know me?"

After the two maids looked up at her, they immediately lowered their heads, and the taller maid nodded.

Chen Yuntang looked at the lips of the two, "You can't speak?"

The taller maid nodded again.

An inexplicable feeling rose from the bottom of Chen Yuntang's heart.

At this moment, for some reason, this strange courtyard gave her a feeling of being even more dangerous than the Regent's Mansion.

It was like a ferocious beast with a bloody mouth, waving its sharp claws at her, as if it was about to tear her apart in the next second.

The tall maid made a gesture to Chen Yuntang. Chen Yuntang understood it and asked her to go to the flower hall in the inner room to rest.

Chen Yuntang nodded, then followed the tall maid through the main room, passed a small courtyard, and arrived at the flower hall behind.

There were two maids standing in the flower hall, dressed exactly the same as they had met in the main room. They also squatted and saluted her respectfully. It seemed that the situation was the same as the tall maid, and she should not be able to speak.

The tall maid took Chen Yuntang to the ring chair in the flower hall, and she went to make tea for Chen Yuntang.

Taking advantage of this, I took a closer look at the arrangement around Chen Yuntang.

The courtyard Bai Rui sent her to is not very large, including the front yard and the back yard, but only three entry areas, and each entry area is not large and there are not many houses.

All the maids and maids in this courtyard are dumb, and they can only listen but not talk.

The layout in the courtyard is not luxurious and grand. Many ornaments are at the level of ordinary wealthy families, but it can be seen that these things are new, such as the pottery basins and jade ornaments on the Bogu shelves. And strangely, when she came in, she faintly smelled the smell of dust.

The tall maid brought the teacup to Chen Yuntang and reached out to invite her to drink.

Chen Yuntang nodded to her, saying that he knew, but he didn't touch the teacup.

At present, when you don’t know anything, it’s better not to drink tea from this strange place. Before, Bai Rui was in the incense burner in the palace. Who knew what objects had medicinal properties when they got here.

When the tall maid saw that Chen Yuntang didn't move the teacup, she ignored it and went to greet the other maids.

She made a few gestures to the other two maids, and Chen Yuntang watched the whole process but couldn't understand it.

The two maids nodded and said that they knew about it and quickly walked out of the flower hall. In less than a quarter of an hour, eight dishes were served on the round table in the flower hall, including cold dishes, hot dishes and hard dishes. It looked quite organized, with exquisite dishes and fragrant.

It turned out that the tall maids just asked them to have a meal.

After the food was ready on the table, the tall maid came to invite Chen Yuntang to go to the table for dinner.

Now the sky was completely dark outside, and it was indeed time to have dinner.

But when she arrived at this strange place, Chen Yuntang knew nothing. She didn't dare to take a sip of the tea before, let alone the current meal.

The tall maid gave Chen Yuntang a cloth meal, gestured to her, and asked her what she wanted to eat.

Chen Yuntang shook his hand, "I have no appetite, take it down. Where is your master? I want to see him."

The tall maid immediately showed a embarrassed expression.

Chen Yuntang looked at her, "Can you invite your master? Or do you don't know who your master is?"

The tall maid raised her index finger at her, which means she could not invite her master to come.

Chen Yuntang sneered, "Since that's the case, I'll take a break first and wait for your master to come tomorrow."

After saying that, Chen Yuntang walked towards the bedroom. The tall maid hurriedly followed him, holding a bowl of bird's nest and pushed Chen Yuntang in front of her, asking her to eat some to cushion her belly.

Chen Yuntang's face became serious, "I have said I won't eat anymore, don't be confused about your face."

The tall maid then shrank her neck, put the bowl aside, and went to Chen Yuntang to serve her to wash.

When he arrived at an unknown place, Chen Yuntang didn't dare to take a shower and change clothes. In the end, he just washed his face and rinsed his mouth with salt water. Then he sent the tall maid out and said that he was going to rest.

The tall maid dared not disobey and made a few gestures to Chen Yuntang. Chen Yuntang understood. The tall maid's gesture meant to let her rest well. She stayed outside and called her if she had something to do. Then Chen Yuntang waved to her and asked her to go out.

Finally, Chen Yuntang was the only one left in the inner room. She let out a long sigh and started to investigate the inner room, not even letting go of the wardrobe.

After the examination, she lay down on the bed and lowered the curtains.

There was only a small candle left in the inner room. A slightly yellow light shone through the bed curtain, making the whole bed look even more dim.

There was a silence around him. Chen Yuntang put his hands on the back of his head, staring at the pattern on the top of the bed, and his mind was spinning rapidly.

She just discovered the inner room and found nothing.

She saw a jade ornament in the closet. This ornament was not visible anywhere, but was exclusively owned by the palace and came from the Palace Office of the Interior. She was not very familiar with the things in the Interior. Thanks to the Regent, there were few foods and uses in the entire Rui Palace, and even the clothes that the Regent made for her were from the embroiderer of the Interior Department of the Interior Department.

When you look carefully, you will find that there are more than one thing from the Interior Office here, and there are as many as seven or eight in one inner room.

In the entire Yanjing City, the only ones that can be produced by the Ministry of Internal Affairs are probably the Imperial Palace and the Prince Rui Mansion.

This is impossible to be the Rui Prince's Mansion, so there is only one possibility, this is the imperial palace!

It should not be a palace with good scenery and decoration, but it may be a deserted cold palace that has been abandoned for a long time. This can explain the cold and desolate feeling that Chen Yuntang felt just as soon as he got off the carriage.
