Moon frost snow

Her voice was a little lazy and puzzled, as if she was very surprised that she was still in this room.

The sound of birds singing outside the window adds a bit of vitality and energy to this early morning.

But at this moment, He Yue had no time to appreciate the beautiful scenery. She was only thinking about how much time had passed.

He Yue saw that she had changed into pajamas and hurriedly put her clothes back on.

Just as I got dressed, Xiao Hei came in and said, "It's only five o'clock. Why don't you sleep in a little longer? I made breakfast. Do you want to have some?"

He Yue said, "No, I have to go out. If they come into the house and don't see me, that would be bad."

Xiao Hei felt a little disappointed, but it was not easy for him to refuse anything. At least He Yue did not leave without saying a word like before.

Xiao Hei smiled and said, "Okay, you have to take good care of yourself. If you encounter any danger, you must come back as soon as possible."

He Yue also smiled and nodded, patted Xiao Hei's head and said, "Okay, I will."

Then he turned around and left the space. Not long after he came out, the door was opened.

This time, Nanny Chang did not come. Only two palace maids came in with delicious food, and two more came in with water and clothes.

He Yue sat up, and a palace maid came forward and said, "Miss He, please wash up first and then have breakfast. After breakfast, take a bath and change clothes before going to see the Queen Mother."

Only then did He Yue realize that it was the Queen Mother who kidnapped her, but she didn't understand why.

He Yue pondered inwardly, "Could it be that the Queen Mother is suffering from some incurable disease?"

However, despite the turmoil in her mind, she still behaved unusually well.

He neither asked questions nor made a fuss, but just quietly completed daily chores such as washing his face and eating.

After that, she sat quietly by the side waiting for the palace maids to prepare the hot water needed for bathing.

After a careful bath and careful changing of clothes, He Yue looked radiant and beautiful.

Her silky soft hair fell gently on her shoulders, exuding a faint fragrance.

Her fair and delicate skin looks even more crystal clear against the new clothes, as warm and delicate as mutton-fat jade.

At this moment, she is like a blooming flower, so beautiful and tempting.

Then, a beautiful palace maid came to He Yue with light steps, bowed slightly and said, "Miss, please follow me."

After saying that, she turned around and led the way. He Yue carefully followed the palace maid, passed through the numerous corridors and courtyards, and finally arrived at the gate of the palace where the Queen Mother lived.

This palace is magnificent, with carved beams and painted buildings, showing the majesty and luxury of the royal family.

The three majestic characters of Ningshou Palace, written in a flamboyant style, seemed to be coated with a layer of dazzling gold under the golden sunlight, emitting a dazzling glow.

Each stroke is like a nimble dragon, winding and tortuous yet strong and powerful.

Every turn and connection is just right, like a carefully crafted work of art.

From a distance, these three words seem to be suspended in mid-air, contrasting with the surrounding red walls and yellow tiles, forming a magnificent picture that makes people fall in love with it and indulge in it.

He Yue followed the graceful palace maid closely and stepped into the majestic and solemn palace gate step by step.

When she passed through the heavy threshold, the scene before her left her dumbfounded and amazed.

I saw various exotic flowers and plants neatly arranged on both sides of the roads in the palace, and the air was filled with bursts of fragrance.

There is gurgling water on the rockery in the distance and koi playing in the pond, creating a lively scene.

He Yue sighed inwardly, the scenery inside the palace was truly breathtakingly beautiful.

Led by the palace maid, He Yue came to a spacious and bright hall.

The Queen Mother sat in the main seat, with an elegant temperament and a kind smile.

He Yue hurried forward and knelt down to pay her respects, "I pay my respects to the Queen Mother. May the Queen Mother live a thousand years and a thousand thousand years."

The Queen Mother smiled and raised her hand, motioning He Yue to stand up. "Stand up, child, and come closer so I can see you."

After thanking her, He Yue stood up and slowly walked to the Queen Mother. The Queen Mother looked at He Yue carefully, with a glint of admiration in her eyes. "You are indeed a beautiful and elegant woman. No wonder King Shu values ​​you so much."

He Yue slowly lowered her eyes, those clear eyes like autumn water now shrouded in a thick mist. Countless question marks seemed to be constantly jumping in her heart, each one representing her deep doubt and confusion.

"Could it be that I was kidnapped because of Mu Nanfeng?"

This thought kept circling in her mind, like a trapped bird, desperately trying to break free from its confusing cage.

The Queen Mother sat back on the phoenix chair, staring at He Yue below with a sharp gaze. However, in response to the Queen Mother's question, He Yue lowered her head, pursed her lips, and said nothing.

As time passed, the atmosphere in the hall became more and more solemn.

The kind and gentle smile that originally hung on the Queen Mother's face gradually disappeared, replaced by a gloomy look.

Her slightly narrowed eyes revealed a hint of dissatisfaction and majesty, as if she could see through people's thoughts.

The palace maids and eunuchs serving around felt the oppressive atmosphere and were all silent, not daring to even breathe.

They knew very well that the Queen Mother was already angry at the moment, and if they accidentally angered Feng Yan, the consequences would be disastrous.

Nanny Chang beside her reminded her at the right time, "Miss He, what are you thinking about?"

He Yue lowered her head and said, "I'm wondering why the Queen Mother invited me here?"

Nanny Chang angrily asked, "How dare you?"

The Queen Mother smiled and said, "Oh, tell me, why did I ask you to come?"

He Yue raised her head slightly, her beautiful and determined eyes looking straight ahead, revealing a hint of courage and determination.

She took a deep breath and slowly said, "I've heard that the relationship between the Queen Mother and His Highness Prince Shu is quite tense, even to the point of being incompatible."

"Furthermore, there are rumors that the Queen Mother has allowed her subordinates to recklessly and illegally mine mineral resources, completely disregarding the laws of the country. Not only that, these people acted as they pleased, killing innocent people indiscriminately, causing countless families to be torn apart and countless lives to be destroyed!"

At this point, He Yue's voice trembled slightly, and it was obvious that her heart was filled with anger and injustice.

The empress dowager's well-maintained face, slightly distorted by anger, instantly turned red, and her already majestic eyes were now spewing out raging anger.

There was a loud "bang" sound, and the Queen Mother, furious, reached out and grabbed the exquisite teacup beside her and smashed it towards He Yue!
