After writing for a bit, it was already noon.
Du Jiu Sheng looked at the sky outside and slightly knitted his brows, âWhy isnât Ya Nu back yet?â
Without knowing why, Luo Qing Chenâs heart skipped a beat. She knitted her brows and said, âI havenât seen Ya Nu all morning since waking up. I thought that he was on an errand in the palace, was that not the case?â
âNo.â Du Jiu Sheng shook his head, âWorking in the palace is just for extra monthly salary and Ya Nu is a servant of the cold palace. He only works in the palace once a month and that was yesterday.â
Du Jiu Sheng knitted his brows even more as a slightly unsettled feeling filled his heart.
âYa Nu doesnât seem like someone who would make a mistake.â Luo Qing Chen bit her lip, âI feel that he might be in some kind of trouble.â
The word âtroubleâ was considered light. Ya Nu had been bullied by those maids at the door the other day, so this time he might really be in some kind of danger and couldnât come back.
âIâll go look.â Du Jiu Sheng put on his coat, âWait in the Cold North Palace for me.â
âIâll go with you.â Luo Qing Chen said, âPerhaps I can help.â
âNo need.â
âBig brother Jiu Sheng!â
Du Jiu Sheng looked at her anxious appearance and finally gave a nod, âThen donât talk too much and follow me.â
âAlright!â Luo Qing Chen gave a serious nod.
When they came out of the Cold North Palace, there was a long hallway.
The thick snow gave a deep feeling when you stepped on it. They could see the footprints of Ya Nu along the way.
It was still snowing, but the footprints werenât light, so Ya Nu hadnât been gone for long.
It should have been when she woke up.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
But the footprints kept getting lighter and when they reached the fork, they couldnât see it anymore.
When they came to the end of the hallway, there were paths to the left and right. The left led to the palaces of the concubines and the right led to the imperial doctors and the crown princeâs palace.
âBig brother Jiu Sheng, you go left, Iâll go right.â Luo Qing Chen thought about it and said, âTo save time, come find me if you donât find anything and Iâll come find you if I donât find anything.â
Although Luo Qing Chenâs idea was very good, Du Jiu Sheng was still hesitant.
She wasnât dressed as a palace maid and if she met some troublesome masters, then she would be in trouble.
âBig brother Jiu Sheng, this matter canât be delayed.â
âAlright.â Du Jiu Sheng said with a sigh, âTake care of yourself.â
âNo matter what, the empress brought me into the palace and no one would be willing to cause me trouble normally.â Luo Qing Chen thought about it and said, âBig brother Jiu Sheng, you havenât left the Cold North Palace for a long time, so you should be careful.â
âRelax.â
At the end of the corridor, one went left and one went right.
Luo Qing Chen took two steps and couldnât help turning back to look at Du Jiu Sheng.
In the white snow, he was walking alone. With a cold breeze, he looked very lonely.
âBig brother Jiu Sheng, I hope that nothing happens to Ya Nu, I hope that we will all be wellâ¦â¦â
She muttered to herself before turning back to head to the right.
There were some palace maids along the way and they were whispering something. Luo Qing Chen glared at them with cold eyes and they quickly left.
After walking for a quarter of an hour, she heard the sharp voices of several maids.
âMute, your foot massage technique really isnât bad. Itâs quite comfortable.â
âZe, ze, ze! He was just getting some medicine and got beaten up like thisâ¦â¦But I donât feel distressed at all, rather I feel very disgusted!â
âA mute is a mute, heâs so disgusting that people want to vomit!â
