C8 death

After the time it took to make a cup of tea, the two of them arrived at the imperial garden. Normally, the Imperial Gardens were filled with chirping and bustling with noise and excitement, but at this moment, it was exceptionally quiet. One couldn't even hear the sounds of birds or birds. When they arrived at the scene of the accident, they heard the empress dowager reprimand them with anger. The surrounding palace maids and eunuchs kneeled on the ground, a faint scent of blood permeating the air. The atmosphere was extremely depressing.

Ran Mei originally wanted to spread the news, but she was stopped by Huai Jin. Huai Jin waved her hand at Ran Mei, bringing Ran Mei around the group of people in front of him and arrived behind the peony flower.

Behind the Peony Blossom was a pond, separated by a fake mountain, which just happened to cover the two's figures. A gust of wind blew over, and the thick smell of blood rushed towards the two of them through the crack in the fake mountain. Ran Mei frowned, but her expression did not change as she looked at the peony through a crack in the wall.

It was almost noon, and the sun was high in the sky. The dew on the petals had already been dried by the sun. Under the sunlight, the shadows of the flowers looked even more beautiful.

Although he was already used to the smell of blood, Huai Jin still hated the sight of the flowers that were being watered by blood. He turned his head and left, intending to bring Ran Mei to take a look at the surroundings.

In order to not knock his head down, Huai Jin could only support himself on the side of the rock wall, and slowly walked out with his head tilted. An ant crawled along the rock wall and landed on Huai Jin's hand. It seemed to have felt the change in the material beneath his body, causing the ant to appear extremely anxious. It crawled all over Huai Jin's hand, and was about to crawl into his sleeves.

Huai Jin did not notice this movement, but Ran Mei, who was at the side, noticed it. With a wave of her handkerchief, she swept away the ant.

Huai Jin thought that Ran Mei had called her, and turned to look at her doubtfully.

"Princess, there are ants." Ran Mei explained in a low voice.

Huai Jin nodded, but just as sshe was about to go out, he saw a pond behind the fake mountain, and something flashed past her mind, "What did you say just now?"

Ran Mei was puzzled: "There are ants over here."

With that said, another ant climbed onto Huai Jin's hand, which Ran Mei anxiously swept across. Only then did Huai Jin look down. She realized that at the corner of the fake mountain, it was densely packed with ants!

"Is there any other way out of this fake mountain?" Huai Jin asked in a low voice.

"Yes, it leads to Zeyang Fang Yuan."

Huai Jin kicked the soil beneath her feet and ordered: "Bring me there!"

Ran Mei also understood that the princess must have discovered something, so she didn't say anymore and turned around to bring Huai Jin to the other exit. The closer they got to the exit, the more ants they saw.

Ran Mei's feet did not stop moving, after a series of twists and turns, the two of them finally arrived at Ze Fang Yuan.

Ze Fang Yuan used to be the residence of the Emperor's concubine, the Mei Fei. Six years ago, when the Mei Fei was beaten into the cold palace, the Emperor dispersed the people of Ze Fang Yuan and didn't arrange for anyone else to stay in.

After Ran Mei brought Huai Jin out from the fake mountain, she arrived at the small door behind Ze Fang Yuan Garden's Plum Forest. The chain on the door had long rusted and was hung obliquely, with a strong tug, it was released.

Huai Jin watched as the ants extended from the bottom of the door to the inside, she then kicked open the door, causing dust to fly into the air, making people cough. The door was kicked open, bringing a gust of wind and a shower of flowers.

The two looked behind the door. It was not the depression they had imagined. On the contrary, the plum blossoms were overlapping each other. Each plum flower was so beautiful that it made one's eyes turn crimson!

Another breeze blew by, filling the air with the faint plum blossom fragrance and a hint of undetectable bloody smell.

Huai Jin smelled and walked to the side of a dried up well, coming to the side of the well, the stench of blood became even stronger, and the stench of blood seemed to be mixed within. Huai Jin frowned, although she was used to this smell, it did not mean that she liked it.

The two of them stood by the well, and the situation was clear now. Inside the well, there was only a corpse, and even if it was not Ran Die's, it would at least be someone else's. Huai Jin retreated a few steps, and waited for the smell to become a little fainter before stopping. Her eyes looked at Ran Mei, and he did not say a word.

Ran Mei knew what Huai Jin meant, she held her breath and was about to jump down, but just as she was about to raise her leg, she suddenly felt a strong force pulling him to a corner, where a bunch of flower leaves blocked her figure.

"Princess?!" Before Ran Mei could even cry out in shock, her mouth was already covered by Huai Jin.

Huai Jin pressed a hand to her mouth, signalling for Ran Mei to not say a word. Seeing Ran Mei nod her head, she then put his hand down, and started to observe the situation outside with her starry eyes, carefully observing the situation through the leaves.

Ran Mei, who was at the side, was a little surprised as the princess had already dragged him away before she could even notice her, and her skills were clearly higher than his. She and Ran Mei had been training under the Xuanping Marquis since young, so their skills were naturally extraordinary.

"Mistress, this is the place."

Hearing the voice, Ran Mei immediately retracted her mind.

As he spoke, two people walked out from the depths of Merlin. The man walking in front was tall and slender. He wore a dark green robe that fluttered in the wind. The man's steps were leisurely. The jade pendant at his waist made a rhythmic sound with each step. He gently waved the fan in his hand, and the end of his phoenix eyes slightly rose, reflecting the surrounding plum blossoms. Naturally, it gave off a romantic aura.

The two got closer and closer, until they arrived at the flower bush where Huai Jin and Luo Hua City Mistress were hiding, only then did Huai Jin realize that the person who came over was the Yuwen Fei who wanted to seek justice for him last night!

In the morning, Huai Jin had also asked about Yuwen Fei's situation. After asking him about it, her experience as a Seventh Prince was definitely not that simple.

The Seventh Prince of the Da Wan Kingdom, Yuwen Fei, was originally the favorite prince of the Emperor. However, when he was fourteen years old, he ignored the objections of the Emperor and went to the Luzhoushan to acknowledge Mr. Dong Li as his master. This trip lasted for four years. When Yuwen Fei returned to the capital four years later, he had a complete change of personality, his actions were dissolute and playboy, boasting of being amorous. He had learned seventy percent of Mr. Dong Li's manners, and was thus unloved by the Emperor. However, he didn't care too much about it. He withdrew from the struggle between the princes, appearing as if he had no interest in the affairs of the world. After all, he was Mr. Dong Li's disciple. Yuwen Fei's essay was extremely good, and it had quite a reputation among the capital's literary circle.

It was just that even though the person in front of him was a playboy, when he thought about what Yuwen Fei had done last night, even though he was extremely free and unrestrained, Huai Jin still felt that something was wrong.

Yuwen Fei suddenly stopped in his tracks as both he and Ran Mei gasped for breath.

After pausing for a moment, the man's voice sounded. "These flowers are blooming pretty well, Yun Jing, pick one." His tone was lazy, but it carried a sense of unruliness.

Hearing that, Yun Jing picked one flower, the two of them continued walking, until they reached the side of the well.

Yuwen Fei stood still by the well, the thick smell of blood made his eyes darken, and he returned to normal. Waving his hands disdainfully, he stood a little further away, just like Huai Jin just now. After he stood up, he picked up a plum flower and sniffed it, then sighed: "Pride is bone, it condenses into fragrance. "I'm afraid that only Merlin would find it pleasing to the eye."
