Chapter 194 True and False (17)

Cai'er was silent for a long while after hearing the words, and then calmly replied: "Prince Concubine, please be safe and don't be impatient, I know quite a few guards in the palace, maybe I can ask them to check the whereabouts of Director Feng!"

"Then go find those guards, I'll wait for your news in the Prince's Palace alone!" Shen Qing urged without hesitation, Cai'er nodded, and sent a few confidant maids to serve Shen Qing, and she was careful walked out of the Prince's Palace.

It was getting dark, and she didn't know how Cai'er's trusteeship was going. Shen Qing felt more and more uneasy in her heart, causing the busy palace ladies and eunuchs to retreat. There were only a few palace ladies left in the huge inner hall, which seemed Very empty.

"Du Du——" An inexplicable voice came from the back window of the inner hall, and it was especially clear in the quiet hall. Shen Qing pricked up her ears, as if she heard something moving behind the Prince's Hall, as if...someone was calling Same password!
Could it be that the second senior brother came here in person?
"Du Du——" came two more sounds, Shen Qing thought for a while, and decided to go to the back to take a look, the maids tried to dissuade her, but she could only fetch the lantern, unexpectedly, Shen Qing took the lantern and quickly left the Prince's Palace alone , I was so anxious that I didn't even bring a maid or eunuch with me.

Even holding a hand warmer in her hand, she couldn't drive away the biting cold of the winter night. Shen Qing walked along the light and breathed, not knowing how far she had traveled. It stands to reason that she should have reached the back of the Prince's Hall, and she took up the lantern to shine a circle , but not a single figure could be seen.

It was definitely not an auditory hallucination just now, Shen Qing heightened her vigilance, put one hand on the dagger given to her by Princess Yi on her waist, and tentatively shouted: "Don't play tricks, who is there?"

Still no response, except for the rustling of a leaf as the cold wind blows.

"Tick tock, tick tock..." The wind stopped and the trees were still, and the sound of tiny water droplets came from nowhere, which became more and more clear in the silent night.

"Zhizhi——" Xiao Erhei in Shen Qing's arms was always at peace, but suddenly became excited, and kept calling out to the sound of the water droplets.Shen Qing patted Xiao Erhei's head soothingly, trying to calm down its restlessness, but unexpectedly, Xiao Erhei jumped out of Shen Qing's arms and ran towards a certain place with her head lowered. Shen Qing hurriedly picked up the lantern to chase after him. Looking at it, it stopped in a dark and damp place.
