The night was as dark as water, and a faint crescent moon hung in the middle of the sky, silently reflecting the plants and trees in the palace.

Absolute silence blended into this scene, and even the crickets obediently silenced their voices and lay down on the top of the grass.

On the path in the palace, a thin palace maid was walking quickly, and the sound of her footsteps was carefully lengthened until it disappeared at the end of the road.

"Unfortunate."

The little palace maid lowered her voice and complained. On this lonely night, she was covered in cold sweat. The palace lantern she held in her hand flickered due to the movement of her hands. The light flickered, and her thin body was silhouetted against the mottled stone wall.

Thinking of the eldest palace maid in charge, she still felt a little aggrieved.

After night fell, few people moved around the palace.

But Yun Bin suddenly sent someone to Li Bin, saying that they were sisters who had a deep love for each other. They hadn't seen each other for a long time and missed her dearly, so they wanted to talk.

Not long after she first came to work in Yun Bin's palace, the palace maid in charge pointed her out and asked her to invite Li Bin.

Even though there were 1 reluctances in my heart, I didn't dare to disobey the order and just came here.

Thinking of the rumors in the palace during this period, Li Bin became confused and went crazy after knowing that the third princess was gone.

Li Bin was originally from a humble background and was not favored by the emperor. Without her children, who would take her seriously?

I don’t know what the whim of my master was.

"You're just bullying me because I'm young and asking me to do this."

Suddenly a cool breeze blew from behind. There was no one around, and the little palace maid got goosebumps all over her body.

"Amitabha, my ancestors bless you... don't bump into anything unclean."

The little palace maid muttered to herself, stopped in front of a palace, and looked up at the plaque hanging on the palace door.

It was the palace where the concubines were.

It was getting dark at this time, and there was no guard guarding the palace gate. Looking through the closed palace door, it was pitch black inside.

Only the two palace lanterns that were lit as usual in front of the door gave off a faint, faint light.

The little palace maid swallowed and reached out to push the door open.

Li Bin is a concubine and cannot live in the main hall. However, this place is more remote, so even though it is the main hall, no concubines live here. Only Li Bin lives in the side hall.

In the past, when the third princess was not married, this place was more lively, with all the palace people laughing and laughing.

The heavy door creaked, revealing the entire scene behind it.

As expected, the lamp was not lit, and the little palace maid sighed.

This palace is full of people who act according to the prevailing situation, and are accustomed to push those who are superior and support those who are inferior. I think the concubines in the palace also know that there is no hope of following their master, so they turn around and look for other ways.

Fortunately, the moonlight was bright and the palace lanterns were shining, so it was not difficult to see.

The little palace maid walked quickly towards the side hall, involuntarily speeding up her pace, as if there was a ghost chasing behind her.

The palms of my hands were already covered in sweat.

In the silent environment, only the frantic sound of her footsteps could be heard.

The door to the side hall was also tightly closed, as if outsiders were not welcome.

"Ms. Li Bin?" The little palace maid boldly called loudly: "Are you there?"

The side hall was quiet, without any light.

"Empress Li, are you asleep?" The little palace maid hesitated for a moment.

It was not long after dinner at this time and it was not yet time to fall asleep. Could it be that Li Bin went out?

If she responded to Yun Bin like this, Yun Bin would be so angry that she would have to make her take off a layer of her skin.

It's so quiet here, you can only hear your own heavy breathing.

A chill climbed up her spine, and the little palace maid took a deep breath and was about to open the door and go in.

But I found that the door had been opened at some point...
