After the accident of the previous queen, this place was turned into a cold palace, and the emperor ordered that no one was allowed to destroy any grass or tree here, nor was anyone allowed to clean it.

It seems as if this place will be forever immersed in sadness and memories.

It seems that only in this way can people all over the world see his deep affection.

As if he loved her very much! As if it was real!

But in Jiang Tangxi's opinion, it was indeed ridiculous!

The palace gate was closed, and the red paint on the door had peeled off, revealing a mottled base color.

Jiang Tangxi stood at the gate of the palace and looked up. She saw that the eaves of the palace were covered with long icicles, which were flashing with cold light in the cold wind.

The trees in the yard had long since withered, leaving only bare branches shivering in the cold wind. The snow on the ground piled up like a mountain, without a single footprint, as if this place had been forgotten by the world.

Jiang Tangxi waited quietly, and finally, she saw Xiao Yunxuan being led out of the palace by He Yun.

She quickly dodged and entered the desolate Pepper Room.

Walking in, a stale and decayed smell hit her face. Jiang Tangxi vaguely heard the man's weak breathing, her heart suddenly tightened, and she walked quickly inside following the breathing sound.

In the bedroom, Xiao Yuchen was sitting cross-legged on the bed recuperating, but his face was as pale as paper and his forehead was covered with fine beads of sweat. It was obvious that the situation was not optimistic.

After a while, Xiao Yuchen noticed someone coming. He thought it was Xiao Yunxuan and said angrily: "Xiao Yunxuan, let me out!"

I waited for a while, but no one replied.

Xiao Yuchen was puzzled and slowly opened his eyes, only to see Jiang Tangxi in nightgown standing there quietly, motionless, with a look of heartache in her eyes.

Xiao Yuchen suddenly stood up like a madman and was about to rush out, but as soon as he left the bedroom, he was hit back hard as if by an invisible wall, and he fell heavily to the ground.

Jiang Tangxi ran over anxiously, helped Xiao Yuchen up, and asked with concern: "What's going on?"

Xiao Yuchen gritted his teeth and said, "It was Xiao Yunxuan who set up the barrier to prevent me from escaping."

Xiao Yuchen's eyes were immediately attracted by Jiang Tangxi's hair. The purple-white hair looked particularly eye-catching in the dim light. His heart seemed to be pulled hard and it hurt a lot.

He rushed towards Jiang Tangxi desperately, wanting to reach out and touch her hair, but the damn barrier was like an invisible wall, blocking him inside.

Xiao Yuchen stretched out his hand through the barrier that was like a water wall, as if he could touch Jiang Tangxi's hair.

His eyes were filled with pain and pity, and his fingers trembled slightly, as if he wanted to convey his warmth and comfort through the barrier.

"姌姌, why did your hair become like this? Was it done by that vicious woman Xiao Yunxuan?" There was a hint of anger and anxiety in Xiao Yuchen's voice.

Jiang Tangxi shook his head gently and said, "No, there is another reason. I will tell you in detail after you come out."

Then, Jiang Tangxi's eyes revealed concern, and she asked anxiously: "Yuchen, how are you in there? Are you cold? Are you hurt?" She asked a series of questions, and every word was filled with her deep worry for Xiao Yuchen.

Xiao Yuchen looked at Jiang Tangxi's worried expression, and his heart warmed. He smiled as if he was relaxed, and said, "I'm fine, Yuyu, you don't have to worry about me. After all, Xiao Yunxuan and I are siblings, and she won't do anything to me."

Jiang Tangxi frowned, she didn't think so, Xiao Yunxuan, that crazy woman, could do anything. She was about to say something, but was interrupted by Xiao Yuchen.

"As for you, Yuyu, I'm worried that Xiao Yunxuan will do something bad to you. Her behavior has been getting more and more crazy recently, and I'm afraid she will do something to hurt you." Xiao Yuchen's eyes were full of worry and uneasiness.

Jiang Tangxi was just about to tell Xiao Yuchen that Xiao Yunxuan wanted to discuss a deal with her, when at this moment, Xiao Yunxuan's crazy laughter was suddenly heard.

Immediately afterwards, several streams of black smoke rushed towards Jiang Tangxi like ghosts.

Jiang Tangxi reacted extremely quickly. She flashed and dodged the attack of the black smoke with a few beautiful somersaults.

Xiao Yunxuan's figure instantly appeared in front of the two of them. She looked at Jiang Tangxi, who was wearing a nightgown, a hint of sarcasm flashed in her eyes, and then she burst into laughter.

"Jiang Tangxi, you played this trick of making a feint to the east and attacking in the west really well! If I hadn't been more careful, I would have been fooled by you." Xiao Yunxuan smiled and glanced at Jiang Tangxi's hair out of the corner of his eye.

Looking at Jiang Tangxi through the lavender hair, Xiao Yunxuan's eyes suddenly flashed with a trace of confusion, as if he was looking at someone else.

But this confused look disappeared in just a moment, replaced by her usual indifference and cruelty.

"Jiang Tangxi, have you thought it through? If you have thought it through and agree to cooperate with me, then I can release Xiao Yuchen right now." Xiao Yunxuan stared at Jiang Tangxi closely, with a hint of threat in his eyes.

Jiang Tangxi just smiled and said, "I haven't made up my mind yet, Princess. I just came to see if Yuchen has been abused by you."

After hearing what Jiang Tangxi said, Xiao Yunxuan's expression changed slightly, but soon returned to normal.

She laughed and said, "Humph, no matter what, I will never do anything to my own brother. Jiang Tangxi, don't refuse my toast and drink the forfeit."

After saying this, Xiao Yunxuan flicked his sleeves and said coldly: "Since you didn't give me the answer I wanted tonight, I'm sorry I won't see you off!"

Jiang Tangxi was stunned!

Xiao Yunxuan actually let her go so easily?

Could it be that he didn't want to fight with himself in front of Xiao Yuchen? ! !

I don’t understand!!!

The villains in this costume drama don’t seem to be like this!!

Then, Xiao Yunxuan actually "escorted" Jiang Tangxi all the way out of the Pepper Palace.

"You look a lot like him!" Xiao Yunxuan said suddenly.

Jiang Tangxi was confused: "What?"

"Nothing! Let's go!"

At the palace gate, Xiao Yunxuan stopped, turned around, stared at Jiang Tangxi fiercely, and threatened: "Jiang Tangxi, if you don't get the answer you want next time you enter the palace, I won't let you go so easily. You'd better think it over!"

Jiang Tangxi was not afraid at all. The corners of her mouth slightly raised, revealing a confident smile, and an idea came to her mind!

He said, "Don't worry, Princess. I will be waiting for you at the palace in the evening of two days from now. I will give you a satisfactory answer then."

After saying that, Jiang Tangxi turned around and disappeared into the night, leaving Xiao Yunxuan standing there alone, with a terribly gloomy face.
