Miss Fortune: Is the regent ready for today?

The various strange structures in the room were old and dirty, covered with blood and dust, and there was a faint stench of rotting flesh, mixed with the cold air steaming from the ground, and the smell of rotten wood that had not been ventilated for a long time hit their nostrils.

Five steps away from Yu Ruyi, on the stone wall, hung some thin, almost transparent kite paper with some delicate patterns embroidered on it, but he couldn't understand what was recorded. He could only vaguely guess that there were deep palaces, books, writing brushes and other things on the pictures. Long arrow.

The strong unpleasant smell stopped Hedan in his tracks. He felt that the smell was familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had smelled it. In short, as soon as he entered the dark room behind the iron door, he felt tortured inside.

The dark passage leads nowhere, and there is no candlelight in the room. Standing there and looking at the passage from a distance is even more terrifying and weird.

The boy in white frowned and brought out the true energy flame, lighting it on the iron basin propped up on the wall. In an instant, the room became clear.

"Hedan, come here." Yu Ruyi was rarely serious. He approached the strange kite papers and waved to Hedan behind him, "Look, do you recognize the pattern embroidered on it? It's something unique to Northern Liao. Picture?"

He Dan covered his mouth and nose and moved quickly step by step. He frowned and looked around for a long time. He said, "That's weird. If my memory is correct, this spring should be a low waterfall in the palace courtyard." Right? But this waterfall was filled in by the new emperor eight years ago and turned into a rock formation." Curiosity drove him to get closer, and the tip of his nose almost touched the kite paper.

Yu Ruyi crossed her arms and frowned, looking around at the world behind the door again. The more she thought about it, the weirder it felt.

"Ah! Oh my god! This! This?"

He Dan's penetrating scream rang in his ears, which shocked Yu Ruyi. When he got angry, he kicked He Dan's butt and cursed: "If you keep screaming, I will I'll beat you to death! What's wrong with you? Why don't you tell me that the furnishings in this room are not scary? For some reason, you don’t want to leave this house!”

He Dan was already shivering. He swallowed instinctively and sweat rolled down his forehead.

"Yu Ruyi, this is not ordinary paper. It should be human skin that has been soaked in some special medicine."

The room fell silent for a moment, and the irritable Yu Ruyi's frown gradually became stiff.

The narrow passage echoed Hedan's words——

"This should be human skin soaked in some special medicine."

The young man in white looked up, and sure enough, the human body's skin lines were still preserved on those papers, which were delicate and white.

"Ugh..." Yu Ruyi vomited first as a sign of respect. He remembered that he had touched this piece of human skin with his fingers just now, and his stomach was filled with nausea.

He Dan looked at Yu Ruyi who was vomiting nothing, and forced himself to look calm and natural. He clenched his fists to hold back his nausea, and then looked at the human skin embroidery pattern.

"From the folding waterfall to the unknown palace, a woman is writing. What flowers are in a vase on the table? And the moon, the phoenix seal? What is this? An edict? Then he was hanged and died. Why is there still a child hiding there? Behind the door?"

Seeing this, Hedan shuddered, and thought to himself: This thing is not like anything in the world, because it makes me panic when I look at it. Yu Ruyi was attentive. He focused on the signature on the human skin picture and raised his hand, "What is it written on?"

"When a bird enters a high pavilion, it is afraid of having a concubine. When the sun is lowered, the phoenix spreads its wings." He Dan read out one word, and the fear in his eyes deepened. "Even if you win the emperor's heart, you won't be able to stay for a long time." The mud stains the pure ink, and the missing moon is no longer full.”

"What kind of story is this talking about?" Yu Ruyi keenly recalled the mottoes used by the old saints of the Yu clan to comment on people in the past.

He Dan swallowed his saliva again, with a complicated expression on his face, and said word by word: "It is rumored that the new emperor's biological mother, Li Bin, is the best at poetry. She is famous in the country as 'Sewing the Moon, Persuading the Bird to Leave', and she is also known as 'The Poet Girl who bows down'. I think this human skin embroidery is probably telling the story of how Concubine Li was killed by the late emperor. "

Yu Ruyi breathed out, "Explain."

"I heard from the elders in Kunshan that when the new emperor was just born, he was the late emperor's favorite prince, and he was even almost named the crown prince of Northern Liao at the full moon banquet. And all of this stemmed from the late emperor's love for Li Bin. , to put it bluntly, it is Aiwujiwu. The original folding waterfall was specially built for her by the late emperor and named after her poem.

Although Li Concubine's appearance is inferior to other concubines in the palace, her talent is really admirable. She once wrote a birthday greeting to the Queen Mother. It is said that it was spread to the Southern Xia Royal Court and was praised by the Queen Mother. Can you understand how powerful this harem woman is? "

He Dan paused and sighed with regret, "It's just that the beauty was ill-fated. In the sixth year after she gave birth to the new emperor, a palace maid rumored that she had an affair with someone in front of the low waterfall at night. The late emperor was furious and has not yet If found out, he will be hanged. Uncle Master said this is called deep love and deep hatred.

In the autumn of the same year, the legitimate daughter of Guo Shilang of the Northern Liao Dynasty entered the palace and was granted the phoenix seal, making her a queen. Some people speculate that Li Bin's death was caused by discord among the women in the palace, but there is no way to confirm it. All I know is that since the death of Concubine Li, the eighth prince, now the new emperor, has been living in a miserable state. There are even people in the capital openly speculating whether he is a bloodline of the late emperor..."

"Stop." Yu Ruyi raised her hand to stop He Dan from chattering away, "I probably know what's going on. But the most important thing now is not knowing the ins and outs of the story on this embroidered picture."

"What is that?" He Dan looked puzzled. Wasn't it Yu Ruyi who asked first?
"The most important thing is, we need to know who made this embroidery and why it is hung here, right? You also said that the embroidery on it is about the old story of the new emperor's biological mother," Yu Ruyi pointed up Pointing, he raised his eyebrows at Hedan: "Don't forget, this palace is now the territory of the new emperor. Who dares to dig a dark room under the cold palace and hang up pictures about his biological mother's embarrassment? It's still made of human skin. What's the point? The size must be pieced together, maybe it is the skin of the bones in the pit outside the door!"

These words first made Hedan enlightened for a moment. Then, the boy in blue asked: "There are only you and me in this room, and this dumb human skin. Don't think about your questions." You all know there’s no answer, right?”

Yu Ruyi smiled and raised his chin towards the human skin: "Put it away and take it out to check slowly."

"Should I accept it?"

Yu Ruyi glanced at him, "What else? This young master has never touched something like human skin."

"You touched me before you touched me?" He Dan questioned decisively, "Let's take it together!"

"Are you going to accept it?!" Yu Ruyi glared at him, and then said like giving out sweets: "If you accept it today, I will think that you have never slapped me, otherwise, I will not give you that slap." Leave it at that! Hurry up, fold it up so it doesn’t get damaged, and keep it in your chest!” (End of Chapter)
