Revenge of the First Daughter - Chapter 98
Chapter 098 Leng Gong Qi Fei
At this time, in the lotus pond, Yun Xiao swam back and forth in the water until she reached the most secluded corner of the lotus pond. Only then did she stop. She first sized up the surroundings, erected her ears and listened for a moment. She did not see anyone passing by. Only then did she breathe a sigh of relief.
This place was close to the Cold Palace. To Yun Xiao, who had lived in the Cold Palace in her previous life, this place was extremely familiar. This time, she had used her familiarity with the Imperial Palace to successfully design all of this.
Recalling how she lived in the cold palace in her previous life, a faint hatred appeared in her eyes. In the end, she was poisoned to death by a bowl of poison from the Spring Forest in the cold palace.
In her previous life, she had clearly been beaten to a pulp. The Yun Family had died because of her, and her only son had been trampled to death by her favorite husband. She simply could not survive. However, she did not expect that Lan Shuya and Chun Lin would not be able to wait for the moment of their death and would give their lives in advance.
Thinking of this, she felt a sharp pain in her heart. In the past, everything was a mockery of her.
Suddenly, she heard a crisp voice. The pain in her eyes slowly dissipated. She drilled out of the water and looked at the shore. Sure enough, she saw the man in a moonlight white robe standing there.
The corner of her mouth curled up slightly. Perhaps no one would believe that Yun Clan’s fourth girl, Yun Xiao, could swim. Of course, she relied on her previous life to swim.
In her previous life, she had been pushed into the water twice, and her first child was lost in the water, so she learned to swim.
However, it was late November. The weather had already turned cold, and the water was even colder and bone-chilling. However, she was able to endure it. She stood up from the water and was about to climb up into the darkness. Her feet slipped, and her body, which had no temperature, began to cramp in the water.
A pair of well-knit hands stretched out, She grabbed Yun Xiao’s hand and said, Catch her ashore, Sensing that Yun Xiao’s hand was extremely cold, Without temperature, Rong Jin frowned slightly. For some reason, He was actually a little angry. This woman actually harmed his body like this. When he received the news, the moment she jumped into the lotus pond, he only felt his heart tighten, mixed with hatred. In November’s weather, the water was as cold as bone. How did this woman hold out in the lotus pond for so long, just to wait for him to come!
Who would have thought that Yun Xiao would be able to stay in the water for such a long time by relying entirely on her persistence? When she saw Rong Jin’s slightly angry eyes, she said indifferently, “What did I ask you to bring?”
Hearing this, Rong Jin’s expression turned even colder. He blurted out, “Are you going to die?” If he lost his life, how could he retaliate? However, in his eyes, he only saw a woman who completely ignored him in order to retaliate.
For some reason, looking at the strength on her face, he actually felt a little heartache?
Heartache? Rong Jin was shocked by the words that represented his feelings. How could he have such feelings?
Yun Xiao did not notice that Rong Jin’s expression was wrong. She only felt her body tremble from the cold as soon as she got ashore. Her expression was also because she had been in the water for too long. She was so cold that her teeth couldn’t help but tremble slightly. However, she wasn’t willing to show her weak side in front of Rong Jin. “I’m fine.”
As soon as she finished speaking, a gust of cold wind blew. Yun Xiao’s body trembled in the air, and a loud sneeze resounded in her ears. Yun Xiao finally felt a little embarrassed.
When Rong Jin saw this, his gaze lingered on Yun Xiao’s face for a while. He put his cloak on Yun Xiao’s body and took out a pill from his bosom and handed it to Yun Xiao’s mouth.
Yun Xiao swallowed it without thinking. She remembered that she had misunderstood Rong Jin, so she felt a little apologetic. She caged her cloak and felt that her body was warmer. “Rong Jin, I’m sorry.”
Rong Jin glanced coldly at Yun Xiao and walked towards the abandoned palace in front of him.
Yun Xiao immediately followed because she had already recognized that it was the cold palace where she had died in her previous life. At this moment, this place was just right for her to go in and change into her wet clothes.
The two of them walked into the palace one after the other. At this moment, there was no life in the large palace. Rong Jin signaled for Yun Xiao to go into the palace on the left to change clothes, but Yun Xiao ignored Rong Jin’s words and directly walked forward.
Rong Jin looked at Yun Xiao’s back with a trace of doubt in the depths of his eyes. For some reason, Rong Jin looked at Yun Xiao’s leisurely back and had a feeling that Yun Xiao was the master of this cold palace.
However, how was this possible?
Yun Xiao was just the fourth young lady of the Yun Clan. She was only fourteen years old, so how could she be related to the Imperial Palace? He followed Yun Xiao all the way to the innermost abandoned house. When he was at the door, Yun Xiao stopped slightly and his hand trembled slightly. In his previous life, he had died in this house!
She recalled everything from her previous life, It was as if he saw a small figure flipping over from the wall of the cold palace. She secretly walked to the front of the room and opened it. Then, she took out three pieces of Hibiscus cakes wrapped in oil paper and handed them to her. She raised her blushed face and looked at herself expectantly, “Mother, the osmanthus cake that I brought you is still hot. Mother, quickly eat it.”
Thinking of this, a faint tear slowly appeared in Yun Xiao’s eyes. Such a cute Nuo Nuo had finally died at the feet of her biological father and trampled him to death. How ironic was this!
Suddenly, Yun Xiao’s eyes burst out with a bright light! The hatred in the depths of her eyes became even more resolute. She would definitely make Zhou Jingyan pay a painful price!
Yun Xiao stretched out her hand and pushed open the door. Looking at everything that was familiar in the room, the smile on her lips rose. Now that she was reborn, she returned to the place where she had died. She must make those who had borne her burden pay a painful price!
However, what made Yun Xiao curious was that although the room was dilapidated, it was very clean because when she first moved in, the room was dirty and messy, and there were traces of spider webs everywhere.
Rong Jin looked at Yun Xiao’s stubborn body standing at the door of the room. The dense sorrow from her body seemed to have flown into his heart with wings, causing his heart to move slightly. A trace of doubt and inquiry flashed in Rong Jin’s eyes as he saw her standing there motionlessly, as if the owner of this room really missed something.
Suddenly, he saw a wisp of sparkling light fall to the ground. His brows knitted slightly. At this moment, his interest in this woman became greater and greater, and a strange emotion flashed through the depths of his heart.
Yun Xiao’s eyes flashed, Seeing that Rong Jin hadn’t followed up, He turned around and closed the door, Only then did she walk behind a wooden board and take off all the wet clothes on her body. She changed into the clean clothes that Rong Jin gave her. Fortunately, the style and size of the clothes, as well as the design, were exactly the same as the clothes she had changed. Only then did Yun Xiao feel relieved. When she went out, she would not arouse anyone’s suspicion.
Putting on her dry clothes, Yun Xiao felt that her body was slowly warming up. Her previously frozen body was much better. She took out the snake eggs from her purse and put them in her dry purse, hanging them on her body. At this moment, Yun Xiao suddenly felt as if there was a line of sight watching her from behind.
At this moment, her heart tightly lifted, and she also ignored the heat that was surging from her lower abdomen.
Yun Xiao turned around and met a pair of sparkling eyes. Even though she screamed in fear, she retreated and touched the wooden plank behind her. The wooden plank fell to the ground with a loud “bang” sound, causing a lot of dust to splatter.
The moment the wooden board landed on the ground, the door was suddenly knocked open by someone from outside. Yun Xiao’s body had already fallen into a warm embrace.
Yun Xiao felt a faint and clean aura coming from the man’s body. Her shocked heartbeat slowly returned to normal. She could already hear the man above her sternly ask, “Who are you?”
Only then did Yun Xiao look over. In the shadow of a corner, a figure slowly moved out. Her entire body became clearer and clearer. She saw that the person’s long hair scattered all over her body. Most of her face was hidden in the shadow, and only her pair of shining eyes could be seen.
However, when the light in his eyes saw the two of them, it turned into disappointment and dissipation.
That person supported the ground with both hands and moved forward bit by bit. It was indeed moving, not walking out!
Yun Xiao’s gaze shifted downwards and her expression changed slightly. The person’s long dress was empty, and he actually did not have legs!
When that person saw Yun Xiao and Yun Xiao clearly, he also stopped moving and looked at Yun Xiao with a vigilant gaze, “Who are you? Why are you here?”
Her voice was very hoarse. Her words seemed to have been ground out of sand. However, she could clearly tell that this person’s voice was a woman’s voice.
Yun Xiao heaved a sigh of relief in her heart. Fortunately, her innocence was preserved.
However, Yun Xiao was still very annoyed and afraid that when she entered this room, she actually accidentally overlooked someone else in this room. If that person wanted to take his life, he would probably have already turned into a corpse by now.
In the future, such a thing must never happen again! She must be on high alert!
Yun Xiao frowned slightly. As soon as the woman spoke, she blew the hair on her face. Yun Xiao saw the traces on her exposed face, and the hand that supported the ground had more traces than her face.
Seeing this, Yun Xiao did not know how to describe her current mood. “Don’t worry about who we are. Just tell us who you are. Otherwise, I will send you to a world without pain later.”
When the woman heard Yun Xiao’s words, there was no ripple between her eyebrows. Instead, she said indifferently, “I’m just a palace maid who washes my master’s feet.”
When Yun Xiao heard this answer, she frowned. If it was just a palace maid, she would have been executed long ago if she had made a mistake. How could she still be in the cold palace? Moreover, she was the only one in the cold palace, but this woman did not starve to death. Apparently, people often came to deliver food.
How could a palace maid have such treatment?
Yun Xiao calmly looked at the woman and directly said, “You’re lying!”
When the woman heard these three words, she suddenly went crazy. She kept shaking her head and saying, “I’m not lying, I’m not lying. This child was really born to me, it was born to me …”
As Yun Xiao listened to the woman’s words, the doubt in her eyes deepened. At this moment, a jade pendant suddenly fell from the woman’s body. The sun shone faintly on the jade pendant. Yun Xiao clearly saw that there was only half of this jade pendant, and there was only a dragon head on this half of the jade pendant!
Dragon head? Dragon head! Yun Xiao’s eyes suddenly widened in surprise. She knew who this woman was! I didn’t expect that she wasn’t dead, but she was still alive!
Seeing the woman’s face suddenly turn frightened, she hurriedly went to pick up the jade pendant on the ground, as if she had lost her favorite treasure. She held the half of the jade pendant tightly in her hand and blew it on her lips. Her face was covered in scars and revealed a wisp of joy, “Fortunately, I haven’t lost it, it’s still there …”
