C9 Difficulties

An hour later, Shangguan Lianniang arrived at the so-called Imperial Palace.

The night was getting darker. Tonight, the moon had hidden in the clouds, refusing to reveal its splendor. The road was pitch black. Shangguan Lianniang didn't know if the eunuch who was leading them had done it on purpose. She only lit a lantern beside Zhang Xuan, but Shangguan Lianniang couldn't see the way clearly.

There was a stone path that led to the palace. The road was uneven, and it was good for the health of the body. As such, the Queen intentionally left him here.

Now, this road had become the place that tortured Shangguan Lianniang.

Without any light and guidance, Shangguan Lianniang's body was not in a good condition. The wound on her back was still bleeding. The waves of pain made her consciousness blur, and her vigilance had also decreased significantly.

As she walked, she would occasionally stumble over the stones beneath her feet. If it weren't for the fact that she still had her subconscious behavior from her previous life, Shangguan Lianniang would have long since fallen to the ground and made a fool of herself!

She hadn't even seen Adept Empress, yet she was already under such pressure. It looked like the Empress really didn't like her at all!

Shangguan Lianniang laughed coldly in her heart. Her cold face became even colder and more frightening under the dim light of the candle flame.

She would remember the humiliation she had suffered today. She would wait for the next day and see who would have the last laugh! The empress's trouble, Zhang Xuan's framing, one day, she would take them back bit by bit!

Shangguan Lianniang tightly clenched her delicate hand, which was covered by her sleeve. Step by step, she walked with determination. However, she'd underestimated the empress's degree of disgust towards her. All sorts of tricks and tricks had emerged as she walked!

If a black cat didn't jump out and reach Shangguan Lianniang's feet, it would either drop a rock or graze Shangguan Lianniang's shoulder and fall down.

The empress was also a persistent person. Seeing that these "accidents" had all been dodged by Shangguan Lianniang's "good luck", and that she only gave Zhang Xuanzhao a road, she then saw the evening breeze blow gently with a slight chill. Another palace maid hurriedly ran over from the front, holding a cloak in her hand. "Behind her, there was a palace maid carrying a washbasin. As she approached, she discovered that the bowl was filled with ice cubes!

The palace maid ran in a hurry and panted a little. However, when she saw Zhang Xuan, she restrained herself.

"Empress ordered, Miss Zhang's body is delicate and weak, and now it's getting cold. Let me grab a cloak to block Miss's cool breeze for you tonight."

Just like that, the group of people stopped in their tracks. Zhang Xuan's delicate face, under the moonlight and candlelight, looked even more charming and charming. He gently received the cloak. The current Zhang Xuan no longer had the slightest posture of knocking someone out while he was in the red building!

Shangguan Lianniang laughed coldly when she saw this, ridiculing Duan Ling Tian endlessly in her heart. She was already outside the palace, but the empress had still done so. It was a little too deliberate. Perhaps the empress was doing this on purpose, but no matter what, Shangguan Lianniang didn't place any importance on these little tricks of hers.

When she had been shot at in her previous life, these people probably hadn't been born in her mother's womb!

"In that case, I'll thank Empress." Zhang Xuan pursed her lips and unfurled the cloak, as if she was going to put it on her.

Suddenly, Zhang Xuan stopped moving, looked at the thin clothes on Shangguan Lianniang's body, and then gave the cloak to her, "Look at my brain, I know Lianniang that your clothes are thin, so you must have caught a cold. You should wear this cape instead of catching the cold. "

Zhang Xuan purposefully bit down on the words' thin 'on her clothes. There were only brothel girls to wear in the red building. Shangguan Lianniang's own clothes could no longer be worn. Even if Shangguan Lianniang had changed clothes, she had only worn two layers of thin clothes.

As Zhang Xuan's voice faded, the palace maids and eunuchs also cast their gazes onto Shangguan Lianniang. There wasn't the slightest hint of respect in their eyes, only ridicule.

"You can't afford to blame me for this. Empress gave this cloak to you on purpose. If you give it to me, I won't accept the blame!"

With these words, Shangguan Lianniang hurriedly shook her head, looking frightened and flustered. Under Zhang Xuan's deliberate action, Shangguan Lianniang's words became that she would rather be cold so that her good sister wouldn't be accused of anything. In comparison, Zhang Xuan was much narrower.

Those who could survive in the palace were not human beings? Naturally, they were able to understand Zhang Xuan's intentions. In this way, the mockery in everyone's eyes towards Shangguan Lianniang lessened a little, but it still persisted.

Not giving Zhang Xuan another chance to speak, Shangguan Lianniang gently looked at the palace maid leading the way and said, "I didn't know that the palace was so large, yet I still haven't reached Empress's palace!"

When she spoke, Shangguan Lianniang's voice was very gentle, not much different from the original owner's. However, no one could hear the chilliness in her words.

The palace maid who was leading the way took a glance at Zhang Xuan, and when she saw Zhang Xuan nodding her head, she immediately changed directions without a sound.

After circling around for so long, Empress was afraid that she was going to lose her patience. She decided to let Shangguan Lianniang go first.

At the same time, the palace maid holding the ice cube walked to Shangguan Lianniang's side. The ice block emitted a cold aura as it flew towards Shangguan Lianniang's face. Shangguan Lianniang's face, which was flushed red from the wound on her back, instantly turned pale.

There was a saying that was very well said. Shangguan Lianniang had endured it all the way. She was a brash person, but now she could not hold it in any longer.

With one hand, he knocked over the washbowl in the palace maid's hands, and all of the ice cubes fell onto the palace maid's body. The melted water directly soaked the palace maid's clothes.

Zhang Xuan, who was walking in the front, was also not spared. A few of the ice cubes seemed to have grown eyes as they viciously smashed into her back, causing her to lose her balance and almost fall to the ground.

This time, it was in accordance with her delicate body.

Before anyone could react, Shangguan Lianniang covered her trembling hands and took the initiative.

With a slap on the face of the palace maid, Shangguan Lianniang shouted loudly, "Bastard slave! I am the dignified Second State Councilor Mansion's direct daughter. Tonight, Empress invited me to the palace to reminisce about old times, yet you dare to act so boldly and boldly, wanting to make me sick! I might be sick, but I still need to meet Empress. If I were to pass this illness on to the Empress, what punishment would you have?! "

As she said this, Shangguan Lianniang's body slightly swayed. She was originally injured, and after not being treated for such a long time, her wounds had already become inflamed. Moreover, after making such a large movement just now, some of her wounds had already been torn open. She was still able to stand here because of her strong willpower.
