Shangguan Minglang moved the corners of his mouth, wanting to refute something, but was unable to do so.
Didn't he know that all the sects were besieging her just because she had a rare treasure?
Before he could finish his sympathy, Gu Chunuan's contemptuous voice sounded clearly.
"A world-famous genius, but his figure is just like this."
Her disdain, her sneer and contempt all deeply hurt Shangguan Minglang.
Growing up, no one insulted him like this.
Shangguan was clearly angry.
But Gu Chunuan had already stepped away, leaving only a ghostly shadow.
The window is open.
The cold night wind blew in from the window, and Shangguan's bright upper body was already naked. This exposure made him even more ashamed.
He closed his eyes in pain, hoping that the empress would have something to do tonight and not come in, otherwise his innocence would be completely destroyed.
Gu Chunuan waited outside for a long time, but did not wait until the empress entered the room to favor Shangguan Minglang.
I haven't found out where the empress is staying tonight.
It's almost dawn.
She was unwilling to do so, but there was nothing she could do about it.
The palace is so big that it is not easy to find rooms.
Just when she was about to give up the search and return to the maid's palace, a eunuch stopped her.
"Come here. What are you doing here? I'm calling you."
"Eunuch, I don't know what your orders are." Gu Chunuan straightened his posture and bowed pretending to be weak and scared.
"Your Majesty is in a good mood tonight. Please send this to Yunlu Palace so that His Majesty can enjoy himself even more."
Gu Chunuan took the tray. Inside was a bottle of elixir and a small token. She sniffed through the bottle and could smell that it was a medicine to enhance happiness.
"Slave... I don't know how to get to Yunlu Palace."
"Go straight ahead and turn right twice and you'll be there."
"yes……"
Gu Chunuan sneered in his heart.
This dog eunuch was surrounded by a group of eunuchs and maids, but she was still asked to deliver medicine.
It wasn't because he knew that the empress was cruel and that most of the people who delivered the medicine would not come out alive, so he made her a scapegoat, so he didn't even ask which palace she was a maid of honor.
That’s all.
She was worried about not being able to find the empress, so that was good.
Gu Chunuan followed the eunuch's guidance and walked forward openly.
Finally... as she approached the Cloud Terrace, she heard a painful scream, "Ah..."
This voice was forbearing, suppressed, and full of pain.
Accompanied by the sound of a whip.
Gu Chunuan raised his eyes and saw dozens of guards protecting a palace not far away.
The guards all had sharp eyes and held sabers in their hands.
Under the night, they looked like puppets.
It seems that he has long been accustomed to the painful sounds coming from the palace.
The smell of blood blew along the evening breeze.
Listening to the sound of whips being whipped, one could not tell how the people inside were being tortured.
Gu Chunuan moved his right hand and covered the medicine in the tray with his sleeve. Suddenly, he swapped the medicine in the bottle.
She lowered her head and walked to Yunlu Palace.
The guard stopped her.
Gu Chunuan lowered her eyebrows and said submissively, "My father-in-law asked the slave to come over and deliver medicine to Your Majesty. This is the token for the father-in-law to give to the slave."
After the guard confirmed that the token was correct, his cold eyes swept into the distance.
The father-in-law under the tree in the distance nodded to the guard.
The guard then let Gu Chunuan in.
Gu Chunuan pushed the door open and entered.
As soon as she entered, she almost vomited.
The smell of blood and obscenity filled the tip of her nose.
She raised her head and vaguely saw the scene inside through the snow-white gauze.
