The princess returns strongly, and the divorced regent is busy chasing his wife

The cold palace of the Dayu Palace.

The Cold Palace is the most remote and simple palace in the imperial palace, with a gloomy and desolate environment.

The buildings here are in disrepair, with peeling walls, broken windows and filled with dust.

The courtyard was overgrown with weeds, the flowers and trees were withered, and it was a desolate place.

The palace was dimly lit and the air was filled with a damp and foul smell.

The furnishings in the room were simple, the bed was worn out, and the bedding smelled musty.

The concubines lived a hard life in the cold palace. They had no one to serve them, their diet was simple and rough, and they often even ran out of food.

The silence in the cold palace was depressing, and the occasional sound of wind and crows added a bit of desolation.

There is no longer the prosperity and bustle of the past, only endless loneliness and despair.

Ouyang Miaoyin was thrown into such an environment, suffering physically and mentally, and her life was like a year.

In the cold palace, Ouyang Miaoyin collapsed to the ground in despair, tears pouring out like a flood.

Her heart felt like it was being pierced by thousands of tiny needles at the same time, and she was enveloped by despair and helplessness.

The honor and prosperity she once had have now vanished like a bubble. She regretted going against the emperor and treating Ouyang Miaoling like that. If she could control her jealousy and not covet things that did not belong to her, she would still be the high and mighty imperial concubine and would not have fallen to this point.

She was so scared that she would have to spend the rest of her life in loneliness and desolation.

In this cold palace, there were no maids to serve her, no gorgeous clothes, only lonely stone walls and cold floors. Ouyang Miaoyin was filled with fear for the future. She didn't know how long she could hold on. Maybe she would go crazy or die in this endless despair.

However, there was still a trace of unwillingness in her heart. She was unwilling to be abandoned by fate and unwilling to see her life end so abruptly.

Ouyang Miaoyin clenched her fists tightly, trying to regain a bit of strength and courage.

She told herself that she couldn't just sink into despair, and that she had to do everything she could to leave this cold palace and get back everything she had lost.

However, her fate is so strange that she can always see a ray of light in the darkness.

That day she ate some stale food as usual and crawled under the sun to bask in the sun as usual.

At this time, the door of the cold palace slowly opened, and a man who looked like a big eunuch, followed by two young eunuchs, came to Ouyang Miaoyin with disgust, covering his mouth and nose with his hands.

"Congratulations, Your Majesty. Congratulations, Your Majesty. The Emperor invites you."

The eunuch conveyed the emperor's will in his crow-like voice.

Ouyang Miaoyin thought she had heard wrongly, so she widened her eyes, looked at the eunuch in front of her, and asked back.

"Eunuch, what did you say? Did you just say that the emperor wants to summon me?"

"Yes"

The eunuch nodded affirmatively.

Ouyang Miaoyin got the correct answer, and a complex emotion surged in her heart, including surprise, joy, and a hint of uneasiness.

Her hands clenched unconsciously, and her eyes sparkled with anticipation.

The emperor actually recalled her. Does it mean that she still has hope and is still useful to the emperor? Her heart was filled with hope.

She hurriedly tidied her appearance and excitedly followed the eunuch out of the cold palace.

Along the way, she became more and more excited and her heartbeat quickened.

She imagined how she would express her gratitude and loyalty when she saw the emperor.

When she finally came before the emperor, her eyes met his, and the excitement in her heart was indescribable.

She knelt down, lowered her head, and said in a trembling voice: "Your Highness, I pay my respects to you."

The emperor's voice was gentle and caring: "Stand up."

Ouyang Miaoyin stood up and secretly raised her head, her eyes full of gratitude and expectation.

She secretly made up her mind to seize this opportunity to regain the emperor's trust and reuse.

"I... released you this time because I have something to cooperate with you on."

"It is my honor to serve the emperor. I will obey your orders."

Ouyang Miaoyin quickly took the opportunity to show her loyalty.

"I... said that we are cooperating with you, which means mutual benefits. You can also get a lot of benefits."

The emperor's words really made Ouyang Miaoyin feel a little excited. She wondered what the emperor wanted her to do.

"For the sake of the emperor, I am willing to die, and I dare not ask for any benefits."

"It is my greatest honor to be able to leave the cold palace and accompany the emperor again. I dare not covet what does not belong to me."

"I...will not let you stay by my side any longer. I will find a better way out for you."

"Your Majesty... please don't chase me away. I have already abandoned Northern Qi and have nowhere else to go. If you chase me away, I will die."

"Please let me stay, Your Majesty. Whatever you want me to do, I am willing to do it."

Ouyang Miaoling knelt at the emperor's feet, kowtowed and begged bitterly.

"Ouyang Miaoyin, listen carefully. I will not keep you by my side any longer. If you don't want to cooperate with me, I will find someone else. Go back to your cold palace."

When Ouyang Miaoyin heard the emperor say this, she suddenly collapsed to the ground.

It turned out that the emperor did not really release her, but wanted her to help him do something.

She had no way to go, no way to retreat. She didn't want to go back to that dark place and die in depression. Even if there was only a one in ten thousand chance, she would fight for it.

After Ouyang Miaoyin made the decision, she closed her eyes in despair and lowered her head.

"I will obey your Majesty's orders."

"Okay... Don't worry, you are Ling'er's sister, I will not treat you unfairly."

So I told her about my cooperation with her.

When Ouyang Miaoyin heard the emperor's request, her heart was filled with despair and indignation.

She opened her eyes wide and looked into the distance in disbelief, as if she had lost her perception of the world.

Her heart seemed to be torn into countless pieces, with pain and humiliation intertwined.

The fantasies and honor she once had have now vanished, and she feels completely abandoned and exploited.

Anger burned in her heart like a flame, and she was resentful of the emperor's ruthlessness and cruelty.

However, she felt more helpless and sad as she realized that her fate in the palace was so fragile and she had no power of autonomy.

At this moment, she doubted her own value and meaning of existence, and felt abandoned and forgotten.

However, in despair, there may be a glimmer of hope, a chance for rebirth.

She realized that even in desperate situation, she could not give up hope of survival.

Perhaps, she should make up her mind to face this cruel reality in her own way and find a new way to survive.

Ouyang Miaoyin thought for a long time before she spoke slowly: "Your Majesty, I agree to cooperate with you, but after the matter is accomplished, you must promise me to let me take my mother away from here, find a place to hide my identity, and start a new life."
