Extreme alert

Chapter 1604
At the beginning, Qiaoyun just thought that Shen Yue could help, and she was somewhat willing to take advantage of it. It can be seen that Shen Yue was so moved in her heart.

Touched germination in the "sympathy".Many people are no longer moved, probably because they don't want to put themselves in the perspective of others.

Qiao Yun secretly thought that Shen Yue and herself were not related, and Shen Yue didn't seem to want to be a son-in-law, so waiting like this is really rare.

She could see that Eunuch Zheng's people were flattering them now, but she had also seen the indifference of Eunuch Zheng's people in the past.

Some people's actions are very purposeful.

Shen Yue is always the same as when he first met, not particularly close, but also not as cold as the common world.

Hearing Qiaoyun's suggestion, Shen Yue shook his head and said, "I'm not sleepy."

He seems to have worked hard all the way, but in fact he has long realized the method of practicing everything from walking, sitting and lying down.

As long as he is practicing, the effect is more effective than sleep, so he seems not to blink for a moment, but he is resting at ease all the time.

If you are at peace, how can you be tired?

Qiao Yun walked aside, took off the lampshade, and trimmed the wick.

The wick explodes slightly, just like the restless heart, the dazzling light that bursts slightly, finally scattered in the surrounding space without leaving a trace.

After a while, Zhao Qiaoyun said in a low voice, "Mr. Shen, I have been unable to understand a question these past few years."

Shen Yue murmured, "What's the problem?"

When he was sitting quietly, his consciousness traversed the entire palace, and at the same time, he repeatedly shuttled through the events narrated by Qiao Yun, and finally got a picture of Qiao Cai standing in front of the lotus pond.

This shows what?
Is the lotus pond weird?
He got up and went to the table next to him, and slowly studied the ink.

Zhao Qiaoyun was secretly surprised, all the people in Xindao Palace have studied calligraphy and painting because of the emperor's preference, and they only hope that one day they will be appreciated by the emperor, as long as the emperor gives orders, they can become prosperous.

Mr. Shen is also good at calligraphy and painting?

But a person like Mr. Shen naturally doesn't need to rely on calligraphy and painting to win the appreciation of others.

Approaching Shen Yue, Zhao Qiaoyun said in a low voice, "It is said that good people are rewarded with good rewards. A few years ago, my mother was already a talented person. Because of the old friendship, she stayed by Lu Cairen's house when Lu Cairen had a difficult delivery. around."

Shen Yue didn't wait for Qiao Yun to finish speaking, and understood what she was going to say, "You think that even if Lingtang is not rewarded, he shouldn't suffer because of it, don't you?"

This is not just Qiao Yun's problem, in fact, everyone in the world has this kind of doubt.

Being a good person is harder than you think.

I don't harm others, but people harm me, why is it like this?

Qiaoyun said "Yes", and said respectfully: "Please enlighten me, Mr. Shen." Because of Qi Zheng, she knew that Shen Yue was absolutely extraordinary, but because of Shen Yue's calmness, she even felt admiration for Shen Yue.

Shen Yue has an invisible power that makes people feel at ease.

This comes from his inner strength.

Shen Yue said lightly, "If there is a lotus pond..."

While speaking, he dipped the ink with a brush, outlined the shape of a pool on the rice paper with a few strokes, and then drew the lotus leaves in it with a few more strokes.

Seeing this, Qiaoyun thought to himself that Mr. Shen's brushwork seems to be casual, but the scene of the pool gives people an immersive feeling. This is really not an ordinary painting method, and it can even be said that he has never seen anyone paint like this.

She didn't know that Shen Yue only used immersive modern perspective brushwork to realistically draw the lotus pond seen from Qiao Cairen's perspective.

It may not have artistic conception, but it is extremely accurate.

Shen Yue stopped the pen in his hand, and continued: "An ant climbed onto the lotus leaf by mistake, but there was a sudden strong wind, and it was about to fall into the water at any time."

Zhao Qiaoyun didn't know what Shen Yue was going to say for a moment.

Shen Yue then said again, "There are other ants who want to save them, but they can't save the ant that fell into the water. They also fell on the water, so they can't do it by themselves."

Zhao Qiaoyun finally came to her senses, "Young Master Shen, you mean that Lu Cairen and my mother are those two ants?" She felt a sense of sadness in her heart, thinking to herself, if this is the case, how many people are there who are not ants?
Shen Yue stopped using metaphors and continued to paint.

Zhao Qiaoyun bit her lip, no longer entangled in the fact that good people get no rewards, and asked, "What is that violent wind?"

Shen Yue murmured, "I'm also looking for that gust of wind."

A few more strokes, Shen Yue put down the brush and said, "Do you recognize this place?"

Zhao Qiaoyun looked at the painting, showing surprise, "This is... the haunted lotus pond in Yanfu Palace."

Unsurprisingly, Shen Yue said calmly, "That palace man rescued by Zhang Tianshi back then jumped into this pool before he was bewitched by the evil spirit?"

Zhao Qiaoyun nodded affirmatively, and then asked in confusion, "Isn't Mr. Shen just coming to the palace, how do you know about this pond?"

Shen Yue didn't explain, "It's rare for Lingtang to sleep well, and most of them won't wake up until early in the morning. Qiaoyun, if it's convenient for you, take me to the lotus pond."

Zhao Qiaoyun hesitated and said, "After Zhang Tianshi exorcised the ghost, he sealed it with a talisman. It is the forbidden area of ​​Yanfu Palace."

Shen Yue frowned slightly, and said for a while, "If I'm not mistaken, the lotus pond was blocked about five or six years ago?"

Zhao Qiaoyun nodded slightly, wondering how Shen Yue calculated it?

Shen Yue made calculations based on Sai Yue's timeline.

Five or six years ago, it was the time when Sai Yue was born.

The image of Qiao Cairen flashed in his mind. At that time, Qiao Cairen was much younger than the woman on the bed. If the lotus pond was sealed off five or six years ago, then Qiao Cairen should have died six years ago. Standing in front of the lotus pond.

In the middle of the night, what is Qiao Cairen doing in front of the pool?
Shen Yue didn't draw Qiao Cairen's figure in the painting, but he didn't want Zhao Qiaoyun to worry too much, but recalling Qiao Cairen's actions, he came to an obvious conclusion.

Qiao Cairen is making a wish!

Make a wish... a contract... an exchange...

These words echoed in Shen Yue's mind, allowing him to draw certain conclusions.

"Take me to this lotus pond."

Shen Yue finally said, "The emperor will not blame, even if I blame, I will take it."

Zhao Qiaoyun lowered his head and said, "Mr. Shen, why did you say such a thing? Qiaoyun is afraid that someone will stop him and ruin what you are going to do. If there is a punishment, Qiaoyun... is not afraid."

Before she finished speaking, Zhao Qiaoyun turned around and went out, tears flickering in her eyes.

Shen Yue caught a glimpse of the clear light, hesitated a little, and finally followed.

It's already three o'clock, but the inner palace is not too dark.

Zhao Qiaoyun had just left the gate, when a palace official came forward and said, "Emperor Xianfu...where are you going?"

Qiaoyun didn't wait for an excuse, Shen Yue said, "I'm going to a place in the palace, and I need Emperor Xianfu to lead the way."

The palace man immediately said, "You are not allowed to walk around in the forbidden area of ​​the palace. If Mr. Shen wants to walk in the inner palace, there may be many obstacles. Mr. Shen, please allow the villain to go with you and explain the situation."

Shen Yue nodded.

The palace man let out a sigh of relief, and after asking about the location, he showed surprise, but he didn't say anything after all.

Qiaoyun saw that all the way, although there were inquiries from the palace, but they were allowed to go without exception, and she was secretly shocked by Shen Yue's position in Zhao Ji's heart.

The inner palace also has inner palace rules!
Even if she is Di Ji, after nightfall, she can't walk around like Shen Yue.

Finally, when they reached a courtyard wall, the fellow palace servants stopped, showing fear on their faces.
