The eldest sister was reborn and the younger sister traveled through time. I just want to survive.

Yan Yongchen seemed not to notice the surprise in Yan Muxi's eyes. He half-closed his eyes, fastened the belt of his cloak, and carefully put the hood on her.

"Your body is delicate, don't let it get cold."

The cloak was still warm, and Yan Muxi was wrapped in it. Her body was warm, but her heart was still cold. She couldn't guess what Yan Yongchen would do next, or whether he would spare her life.

"Thanks, father!" She tried to stop her voice from trembling so much that her nails almost pierced her palms.

"I am your father. There is no need to be polite between father and daughter." Yan Yongchen looked at her with gentle eyes.

Even at this moment, she would still be deceived by the eyes in front of her and believe that the so-called father cared about her a little.

Yan Yongchen's eyes are really beautiful, his pupils are black and translucent, and he is very gentle when looking at people, especially when he is looking at someone quietly, his eyes always seem to reveal affection, which makes people indulge in it unconsciously.

In order to save his life, Yan Muxi chose to indulge temporarily and responded with full dependence.

I don’t know if it was an illusion, but Yan Yongchen’s gaze seemed softer, and his voice was also softer.

"Go out from here, walk half a mile north and you will reach the cold palace of the Dafeng royal family. There is a maid named Lin in the cold palace. Many years ago, this maid Lin once raised a civet cat from the Western Regions. She spoiled the cat so much that it even dared to scratch the prince. Later, the civet cat was skinned alive, and Maid Lin lost her tongue and one of her eyes. She was banished to the cold palace and had to clean the toilets in the cold palace every day... It can be said that it is difficult to live, and difficult to die."

Yan Muxi's eyes were timid, and her mind was quickly calculating the intention of Yan Yongchen's words.

The civet cats from the Western Regions were tributes to the royal family. Only favored concubines or princesses were qualified to raise them. It was impossible for a maid to raise a civet cat.

She suddenly remembered that the late emperor had a concubine named Shu Guifei who was the most favored concubine in the harem. Her mother's family name was Lin. Not long after the late emperor passed away, this concubine who had enjoyed great honors for many years also passed away.

Concubine Shu once raised a Western civet cat with long snow-white fur. The reason why she remembered this was because of the rumor that "a thousand-mile flying rider was a civet cat slave."

It was rumored that when the late emperor was alive, he doted on Concubine Shu. Concubine Shu's pet civet cat fell ill and couldn't eat, so the late emperor sent people and horses to find a veterinarian for the civet cat. Several good horses died in the rush. When the story spread, Concubine Shu was branded as a demon concubine who brought disaster to the country.

Yan Yongchen would not mention irrelevant people and things for no reason, and deliberately mentioned Nanny Lin in the cold palace. Could it be that Concubine Shu was not dead, but was sent to the cold palace to be a maid?

The concubine of the previous emperor was still a noble concubine even after the previous emperor passed away. Who has the right to decide the fate of the concubines of the previous emperor? The answer is self-evident: only the new emperor.

Could it be that her misfortune today is also related to Emperor Yuan Jing?

Knowing that she understood, Yan Yongchen pointed to the wooden door on the left and said, "Let's go. Go out through that door, turn right after leaving the yard, and walk south along the plum forest. Remember not to look back."

Go, can she go? Yan Muxi subconsciously looked into the room, where two Dafeng princes were lying, one was poisoned and injured, and the other was already dead. If today's calculation was really done by Emperor Yuanjing, she would have no way to escape.

There are wolves in front and tigers behind. Unless you have the ability to burn the sky and escape the earth, you can't escape from this matter.

While hesitating, Yan Yongchen urged, "If you don't want to be the next Nanny Lin, leave here immediately... You can't control or stop me from doing what I want to do."

Yan Muxi suddenly raised her eyes, and the warmth in the phoenix eyes disappeared, leaving only coldness. At this moment, Yan Yongchen was like a ferocious and ruthless lone wolf, who would pounce on his prey and bite off its neck in the next moment.

In an instant, she felt her whole body was cold, even the joints between her bones were icy.

Yan Yongchen probably doesn't know what she has done, right?

If Yan Yongchen knew that she had plotted to get him dismissed from office and imprisoned, he would stab her throat with a sword just as he had killed the Sixth Prince.

Yan Muxi didn't know how she escaped. Her mind was blank and she couldn't tell the direction. She just ran forward with all her might, as if as long as she ran fast enough, she could escape the encirclement of the tigers and wolves.

She didn't want to think about why the emperor was plotting against her and why Yan Yongchen, who should have been imprisoned in the imperial prison, appeared in the harem.

She just wanted to escape and survive!

The sky was covered with dark clouds, there was no sunlight overhead, and there were identical plum trees all around. Yan Muxi ran for a long time but still could not get out of the plum forest.

Suddenly, a figure appeared in front of her. She stopped in a hurry. When she saw the person clearly, her confused mind finally became a little clearer.

——It was Yu Wantai. Yu Wantai was actually the first person to arrive except the Sixth Prince, just as Yan Yongchen said.

She didn't even dare to think about what would happen if Yan Yongchen and Yan Da didn't show up, and she and Prince Rui were caught naked in bed by Yu Wantai...

Here, Yu Wantai also saw Yan Muxi clearly and immediately ran towards her, "Xixi, where have you been? Yinxia and the others said you were missing... Are you hurt anywhere..."

Yan Muxi shook his head subconsciously, "I, I, it's fine."

When he approached her, Yu Wantai realized that her hair was disheveled and she was wearing a man's cloak. The coat underneath the cloak was torn and the cotton wool was visible.

Just as I was about to ask, I heard a sudden noise not far away.

Yan Muxi was shocked and grabbed Yu Wantai's sleeve, "Let's go, let's leave here quickly, take me away."

Seeing her face full of fear, Yu Wantai did not dare to delay. He picked her up by the waist and hid her in the plum forest nearby.

A group of people walked along the Meilin Trail in a mighty procession, led by Empress Xue and Concubine Li, followed closely by high-ranking concubines such as Concubine Chen and Concubine Shu. In addition to the empress and concubines, there were also several ladies who had made great contributions.

After everyone disappeared from sight, Yan Muxi urged again: "Let's go, let's leave quickly, go quickly."

Yu Wantai also realized the seriousness of the situation and did not dare to stay any longer. He held her and ran quickly out of Merlin.

Shortly after the two left, a group led by Queen Xue arrived at Meixiang Garden.

The gate to the courtyard was wide open, and the Sixth Prince's beloved dog was lying in the courtyard, his life or death unknown.

"My son~ my son~" The Sixth Prince's biological mother, Concubine Chen, tried to break into the courtyard, but was held back by the palace servant who served her closely. "Your Majesty, don't be rash. If the bad guys are still inside, you will be in danger if you rush in."

"Princess Chen, please be patient. The Sixth Prince is a blessed man and will be safe." Empress Xue consoled Princess Chen and ordered the Imperial Guards to scout the way forward.

There are two entrances to the yard. The door of the main house opens at the front and back, leading directly to the backyard.

The Royal Guards hurriedly checked the houses in the outer courtyard and found nothing unusual before leading everyone into the backyard.

The moment the door opened, everyone gasped, followed by bursts of shrill screams.

Prince Rui was riding naked on the Sixth Prince, holding a long sword in his hand, and stabbing the Sixth Prince like a madman.

Blood was all over the ground, and the Sixth Prince, with his eyes wide open, showed no reaction at all, as if he was already dead.

"Ah~~~My son, my son, don't kill my son..." Concubine Chen screamed and rushed forward. The royal guards tried to stop her, but the irrational Concubine Chen pulled away the sword at her waist.
