Reborn, seduced the prince and killed his wife to become his favorite concubine

That place is either full of ghosts or half-human, half-ghost creatures. They would never dare to go there in their entire lives, but she is not afraid at all?

"Mother, do you think I should wait at the gate of the cold palace tonight to meet Concubine Yue, so as not to miss her again? If I remain silent, she will think that I was deliberately avoiding her last night."

Before the two of them could come to their senses, Shen Zhishu continued talking to himself.

She looked sincere, as if she was saying that it was her fault that she didn't see him last night and she had to apologize tonight.

But she actually wanted to send Concubine Yue to the cold palace?

"Will it be... not good?"

Concubine Hui's mouth twitched. She didn't expect Shen Zhishu to think this way.

"If you don't go, it would be disrespectful to Concubine Yue. How about this, Queen Mother will send Nanny Du to help you invite her to the cold palace for a chat."

The Queen was pleased to see this happen.

Even Nanny Du was sent out.

It seems that the Queen is eager for her and Concubine Yue to meet again in the cold palace.

Shen Zhishu was very grateful on the surface and kept saying how good her mother was to her.

Concubine Hui on the side smiled awkwardly.

My eyes always linger on Shen Zhishu, and now I feel that I can't see through her at all. Is she really the kind of well-behaved lady who dares not make any mistakes as Zhao Rui said?

After the meal, Concubine Hui also left Jiaomu Palace.

"Your Majesty, Concubine Shen didn't see Concubine Yue last night. That's too strange. So are we going to the cold palace tonight?"

Aunt Chaoxi supported Concubine Hui as she walked towards the bedroom.

He was quick-witted. Since his attempt was unsuccessful last night, he thought that they would face off tonight and he would go and see for himself.

"Concubine Shen has remembered what happened last night. If we continue to watch the show as bystanders, I'm afraid it will be difficult to repair our relationship in the future. This is not what I want."

"But if she doesn't have any ability, it doesn't matter even if she has a falling out with you in the future."

"Is it you who dares to go to the cold palace for a tour and come back as if nothing happened?"

Even if you don't have any special skills, you're still very brave, right?

Aunt Chaoxi shuddered and shook her head.

Not to mention at night, she didn't dare go in alone during the day.

"See what the Queen does, and then we'll follow her."

She couldn't act rashly until the situation became clear.

Inside the Pepperwood Hall.

Nanny Du came back soon.

"Empress Yue said that she will be on time for the appointment tonight."

Without saying a word more, she stood behind the queen and continued in obscurity.

"Meeting in the cold palace is really not a good place, Zhishu, can I let Aunt Gui go with you tonight?"

The queen seemed very worried about her safety and spoke earnestly.

Nanny Gui is the most respectable palace maid in Jiaomu Palace. If she goes there, she will represent the Empress Dowager. No matter how excessive Concubine Yue is, she will not dare to openly slap the Empress in the face.

It seems that she really cares about Shen Zhishu.

But does she really want to help herself?

Shen Zhishu was not so sure now, so he refused.

"Mother, this is a matter between me and Concubine Yue. Please rest assured and let me handle it. If I can't handle it well, you can intervene again. If Nanny Gui goes there, Concubine Yue will think that you are using your status to bully her again."

She has found all the reasons.

After hearing this, the queen grabbed her hand, patted it gently, and praised her for being so thoughtful.

Soon, it was night.

At sunset, Shen Zhishu arrived at the gate of the cold palace a moment in advance and waited.

The door was closed, so she asked Xiaodie to climb over the wall and deliver a bag of silver to the man named Gou Wa inside.

"Just deliver the money, and you don't have to do anything else."

She was very suspicious of Gou Wa's identity, but as she currently had an unstable foothold in the palace, she did not dare to pursue the matter too much.

"Master, you are really kind-hearted. You do good things without leaving your name."

Xiaodie nodded, praised her a few words halfheartedly, then turned over and disappeared.

Not long after they left, Concubine Yue arrived.

After all, she is the most favored woman in the harem, and you can feel her flamboyance when she walks towards you.

Behind her were eight palace maids and eunuchs.

With this kind of grand display, even the Queen can’t compare to it, right?

On the other hand, Shen Zhishu was alone and sitting in a wheelchair, looking lonely and somewhat miserable.

"You're alone? You dare to come to me?"

Supported by the nanny, Concubine Yue approached step by step with a strong aura, as if she was going to force Shen Zhishu to kneel down.

The nanny beside her was Nanny Su who took her to the cold palace last night.

At least now it is certain that it was Concubine Yue who sent her to the cold palace yesterday.

"Greetings to Concubine Yue."

Shen Zhishu is now a 'cripple', sitting there and saluting with his upper body.

"Last night, I specially asked Nanny Su to send you here. The cold palace is also a feature of the imperial palace. I kindly let you visit it. Concubine Shen will not hate me because of such a small matter, right?"

Concubine Yue raised her hand proudly and exempted her from the ceremony.

Then he explained what happened last night.

From the sound of it, it seemed like he was just trying to scare her on purpose.

"How could that be? I'm unfamiliar with the palace. Concubine Yue means well and hopes that I can get familiar with the palace soon."

Shen Zhishu also smiled faintly, looking innocent and harmless, without any dissatisfaction at all.

Concubine Yue looked at her sideways, and after a cold glance, she was very disgusted.

"Tell me, what do you want to do by calling me here?"

Judging from her expression, she completely despises me, so she shouldn't bother setting a trap for me.

Scare her, it seems more like Concubine Yue's trick.

"Of course, I will invite Concubine Yue to visit the cold palace together. What we didn't accomplish last night must be continued tonight."

"You want me to go in with you?"

But after hearing this, Concubine Yue looked at Shen Zhishu with a look that seemed to be saying, "Are you sick?"

Visit the cold palace? What about playing?

"There is a joke among the people that the cold palace is a haunted place, but Concubine Yue has lived in the palace for more than 20 years. This is your home. Even if your own home is a haunted place, you are definitely not afraid. Besides, you specially invited me here, I think you must find it interesting, and I really want to broaden my horizons."

Shen Zhishu smiled.

"Your ability to talk nonsense is exactly the same as your mother's."

Concubine Yue sneered disdainfully.

He glanced at me, waved his hand, and asked someone to open the door.

"Isn't it just the cold palace? If you want to go, then let's go for a walk."

It's just a cold palace. Others might be afraid of it, but she isn't.

Then he lifted his foot and strode inside.

"Protect Concubine Shen. If she gets scared by some ghost, it will be my fault for not taking good care of her."

She had stepped forward.

So refreshing and direct?

Shen Zhishu looked at Concubine Yue's back and couldn't help wondering, wasn't it she who arranged what happened to Gou Wa?

Otherwise, how could she be so calm when she was told she was going to be sent to the cold palace?

Aren’t you worried that this trip will make Gou Wa’s existence public?

"Concubine Shen, please."
