Deep fall

In the early morning, Shen Lifu woke up from the big bed in the bedroom.

She had just finished grooming when a servant knocked on the door and said that the second prince invited her to have breakfast.

After Shen Lifu was fully dressed, she followed the servant to the dining room of the main hall.

In the magnificent restaurant, the long dining table was filled with sumptuous delicacies, and the tableware was all made of gold, and the servants in charge of serving the meals stood aside.

"Miss Shen, you're here!" Jim was dressed in a dark blue prince's attire. He had already sat down, but when he saw her appear, he immediately stood up again.

Sitting next to him was a demure woman, dressed in elegant and noble clothes, and when Jim got up, she also stood up.

Shen Lifu nodded at them.

Jim immediately brought the woman over and introduced her: "This is my concubine Senna, you can be accompanied by her during the time you are in the palace! Senna's Chinese is pretty good, I believe you will be able to get along happily!"

"Miss Shen, I'll accompany you around after breakfast!" Sai Na said to her in fluent English.

"Thank you!" Shen Lifu froze for a moment, then smiled at her.

"Miss Shen, please take a seat, let's start eating!" Jim gave her a standard court salute and invited her very politely.

Shen Lifu sat down with them. For some reason, she always felt that the second prince of Country F treated her with a much more humble attitude today.

He has trapped her in the palace for several days. Apart from sending some gifts, he has not been seen in the past few days, let alone accompanied her for dinner formally like this morning, and sent his concubine Introduced to her and accompanied her.

is something happened?
Although Shen Lifu had doubts in her heart, she didn't show it on her face.

After breakfast, Senna wandered around the palace with her, talking with her in Chinese.

In fact, Shen Lifu has already wandered around the palace by herself in the past few days, but today she is not so lonely with Senna's company, and the two of them can find something to talk about.

During the chat, Lifu Shen learned that Senna had just given birth to Jim a son last year, and Jim liked it very much. Senna is now pregnant again, and she usually recuperates in her bedroom. Today, she went out to accompany Lifu Shen walk around.

"Since you are pregnant, go back and rest, I will go back for a walk alone!" Shen Lifu stared at her and persuaded her.

"It's okay, I'll stay with you for a while longer, I'm going out for a walk anyway!" Sai Na slightly hooked her lips, and suddenly smiled meaningfully: "By the way, do you know that the palace to the north is a forbidden area of ​​the imperial palace?" , is known as the land of death, and no one dares to approach it on weekdays."

"Forbidden place?" Shen Lifu was startled and exclaimed in surprise.

No wonder she would always be stopped by guards whenever she went to the north these days.

Sena squinted her eyes, her eyes were deep: "Maybe Miss Shen is an exception, after all, the palace to the north is the former palace of the First Prince and his mother, and the First Prince has been living there since he came back, but it's more evil over there, and everyone hates it." I dare not approach, it is said that all the palace people and guards who approached there are missing, so all the people in the palace are afraid of that side from the bottom of their hearts, and the king earlier ordered no one to approach."

"Aqiang, oh no, the First Prince lives in the palace to the north now?" Shen Lifu's eyes moved slightly, and she immediately asked.

"Yeah!" Senna pretended that she had made a slip of the tongue, and nodded embarrassingly.

After Shen Lifu sent the pregnant Senna back to her own dormitory, she decided to head north.

Before she was trapped in the palace, she didn't know Aqiang's whereabouts at all. Now that she had learned from Sena that Aqiang lived in the palace to the north, she naturally wanted to look for him.

This time she was extra careful to avoid the guards guarding her, but when she was approaching the north palace, she was stopped.

"Stop!" A chief guard who led the army yelled at her: "Who are you? Do you know that anyone who trespasses in the North Palace will be killed!"

"I..." Shen Lifu's pretty face froze, and she was about to explain.

"Let her in!" Suddenly a familiar voice sounded behind them.

Shen Lifu turned her head to look, and was surprised to find that it was Luo Xi who came!

"Lord Luo Xi!" The chief guard immediately greeted him.

"Let her in, I'll take care of what happens!" Luo Xi said with a solemn expression.

"This... alright!" The chief guard hesitated for a moment, and then he let it go reluctantly.

Shen Lifu walked in with Luo Xi, the closer to the North Palace, the more foggy and chilly it was inside.

"Aqiu!" Shen Lifu shuddered suddenly.

"Are you okay?" Rosie asked anxiously.

"It's okay!" Shen Lifu shook her head, looking around the icy palace, she couldn't help asking in doubt, "It's just...why is it so cold here?"

Luo Xi's eyes became deep: "Here is the palace of Aqiang's mother, but it has been abandoned for many years after she died. Aqiang didn't like other people coming to disturb his mother's rest, so he sent people to take a walk in the palace. Rumors make those people dare not approach."

Shen Lifu came to a sudden: "So that's the case, no wonder Sai Na told me that this is the forbidden area of ​​the palace!"

"Senna?" Luo Xi was stunned, as if a little surprised, why did she know Senna.

Shen Lifu explained to him: "I don't know why the second prince invited me to have breakfast this morning, and let his concubine Saina accompany me, but I saw that Saina was pregnant, so I sent her back to rest first."

"So it's like this, I mean how did you know Senna!" Luo Xi said in surprise.

"By the way, Luo Xi, why are you here?" Shen Lifu looked up at him, and couldn't help asking curiously: "I just heard that guard call you Lord Luo Xi? Are you also a member of the royal family of country F?" ?”

"To be honest, I used to be the court physician here! Later, after Ah Qiang was expelled from the palace, I also left with him, and I only came back with him recently!" Luo Xi looked back at her, a little helpless road.

"Court doctor? No wonder your medical skills are so good?" Shen Lifu couldn't help screaming when she heard this, paused for a moment, blinked again, and asked in puzzlement: "It's just why Ah Qiang was expelled from the palace back then ?”

"It's a long story!" Luo Xi's eyes turned remote in vain: "Actually, when Ah Qiang's mother was pregnant with him, he was already named the heir to the throne by the king, but he was born just at the right time. The vision, coupled with the fact that some wizards at that time were bought by the second prince's mother and concubine Kamilin, fabricated lies to the king, saying that Aqiang's killing spirit was too strong, and that he was the reincarnation of the devil king, and he would bring a big blow to the royal family of country F. A huge catastrophe, the king didn't believe it at first, until..."
