Entering the Red Chamber: Qingwen, rush forward!

Mo Xiaomei talked nonsense, which scared the little palace maid Cherry almost to death.

She hasn't dared to tell Cherry that Liu promised to possess her, otherwise she would be even more afraid.

After talking nonsense for a long time, in the end, Mo Xiaomei herself felt a little scared, so she shut up and stopped talking.

"Cherry, what does it mean when there is a shift?" Mo Xiaomei asked.

"Ah... one long and three short?" Cherry was pondering while tapping on the Kang table with her slender fingers.

One long and three short, fluffy... fluffy.

Mo Xiaomei heard it and nodded quickly: "Yes, yes, that's the movement."

Cherry laughed and said: "This is the fourth watch, one long and three short is the fourth watch."

"Oh, so it turns out that Jia Yuanchun asked me to meet him in the cold palace on the fourth watch!" Mo Xiaomei suddenly realized.

"Okay, I got it!" Mo Xiaomei said with a smile: "By the way, have you ever known the Xiande concubine in the palace?"

"Concubine Xiande? Isn't she in the cold palace? Let's go to the cold palace in the morning, she is the one basking in the sun in the corner!" Cherry replied.

"Really? That's actually the Xiande concubine? Why did she go to the Leng Palace?" Mo Xiaomei asked pretendingly.

"I heard that it was all because of Li Guiren. She first said that the fetus in the womb of the concubine Xiande had conflicted with her twins. Then she said that the concubine Xiande's mother's family bullied others... The emperor beat the empress into the palace in a fit of anger. Leng Gong."

"Oh, this Li Guiren is really powerful, why did he harm so many people? Didn't Liu promise to be thrown into limbo by her? As a result, she hanged herself..." Mo Xiaomei said coldly.

"Isn't it because of the dragon and phoenix twins in her womb? The empress dowager said that this is auspiciousness from heaven, and the emperor also values ​​it very much, so everything is up to her."

"Sigh, she is really spoiled and proud, sooner or later she will have unlucky day." Mo Xiaomei said coldly.

"However, concubine precious has said that in the palace, one must learn to leave a way out for oneself. If the emperor likes to get too excited, the day of falling out of favor is often the day of death! These masters in the palace always One is soft-hearted, if you do something, you will definitely kill him!" Cherry whispered.

The two had a free afternoon, chatting and laughing, time slipped by quickly.The sun was slanting westward outside the window, the sky was dark, and the cold wind was blowing.

"Ah! How did the time go so fast?" Cherry exclaimed in surprise when she heard the wind outside and looked up.

"This time flies so fast!" Mo Xiaomei was also surprised.

"I'm going to make dinner." Cherry yelled and jumped off the kang, kicking her shoes and running outside.

"Why are you in a hurry?" Mo Xiaomei also got up and packed her clothes, and said, "It's still early, I've been sitting all afternoon, and I'm not hungry..."

"Let's eat early, pack up and go to bed early!" Cherry said with fear in her eyes.

It was only then that Mo Xiaomei suddenly remembered that he himself had frightened the little maid.

It seems that this little girl is serious!She smiled secretly in her heart, quickly waved her hands and said: "You are right, go quickly! Save those resentful souls from coming out when it gets dark!"

Cherry trembled even more when she heard the words, and ran to the kitchen to do some work.

Although she is timid, her cooking skills are not small!After a short while, Cherry cooked a small pot of meat floss porridge, which smelled fragrant, and there was also a small plate of pickles.

Although the dinner was simple, it was warm and comfortable in the stomach.To have such a dinner in this imperial palace can be said to be extremely warm.

The cherry "huluhulu" finished eating quickly, and then lay down on the table and looked at Mo Xiaomei without saying a word.

Although she didn't urge her, her eyes were full of anxiety.

Mo Xiaomei knew that she wanted to pack up early and go to bed, fearing that there might be ghosts looking for her.

The little girl was amused, and quickly comforted her: "Cherry, don't be afraid, you haven't harmed anyone, what are the ghosts looking for you for?"

The more she said this, the more scared Cherry became in her heart. She was trembling with nervousness, and her teeth were chattering when she spoke.

"Don't just sit around and wait, go and light a brazier and put it in the house. The wind is so strong, it must be cold at night. Boil some water for us to wash, and then fill it with Tang Pozi. It will be warmer at night."

"Oh, okay, I see!" Cherry hurriedly got up to work.

The little girl smiled and asked, "Cherry, when are you going to start putting makeup on dead bodies with me?"

"Ah... makeup for the dead?" Cherry trembled when she heard this, and almost threw away the charcoal basin in her hand.

She cried and asked: "Sister, what are you talking about? You want me to put makeup on the dead body? Can I not go? I beg you, isn't it good for me to serve my sister like this every day? Don't ask me to see the dead OK? I beg you..."

Cherry's words were extremely miserable, two big teardrops dangled on the eyelashes, and they were about to fall.

"If you're really scared, forget it! Every time you go with me, forget it for me!" Mo Xiaomei said helplessly.

"Really? Thank you sister, thank you sister, I will be a cow and a horse in my next life to repay my sister's great kindness!" Cherry cried with joy.

Mo Xiaomei smiled and said nothing, in fact, she really didn't want to bring such a burden by her side, it was better this way.

When the two of them finally finished their mess and packed up, it was already dark, the wind was blowing, and the temperature plummeted.

There was a charcoal basin in the small room of the two of them, and the new quilt was thick and warm, and Tang Pozi was stuffed in the quilt, and the two of them blushed slightly, and they didn't feel the bitterness of the severe cold at all.

The two blew out the oil lamp, lay on the kang in the dark and listened to the cold wind howling outside.The cold wind kept blowing on the door and windows, and the doors and windows slammed and rattled, making Cherry sweat all over from fright.She simply covered her head under the blanket and shivered.

But the quilt was too stuffy after all, Cherry got out after a while, pushed Xiaomei Mo lightly, and asked: "Sister, you heard the noise of the door and window, is there a ghost coming out?"

Seeing that she was so terribly frightened, Mo Xiaomei regretted that she shouldn't have frightened her, and hurriedly comforted her for a long time.

However, how could Cherry believe it at this time?Coincidentally at this time, someone in the cold palace not far away screamed again.

The cry was blown by the cold wind, and it was even more horrific and painful. Even Xiaomei Mo was shocked to hear it, let alone Cherry.

She immediately retracted into the bed again, her body trembling like chaff.

Mo Xiaomei listened carefully for a long time, only to hear the screams coming and going, probably some woman in the cold palace was being tortured.

This is a common thing in the cold palace.A certain concubine was too arrogant when she was in power, offending people to death.

Only one day when she was down and out and thrown into the cold palace, someone would come to torture her day and night and make her life worse than death.

Mo Xiaomei's heart gradually became cold when she heard the increasingly miserable screams.

The palace is fine during the day, like a fairyland.But at night, it will become a hell on earth again.

While she was in a trance, there was a clear knock on the door...
