Chapter 311 The Dream Continues in the Qing Dynasty: Locked in the Palace

In this dream, Du Juan also figured out the pattern.Every step you take, you need to be careful.This Qingmeng is indeed different from the past, and everyone is only friendly on the surface.

When it was time to go home that day, Linger decided to accompany Du Juan back to the Du Mansion. Firstly, the two could practice with each other, and secondly, Linger could have a temporary place to stay.This all stems from Ling'er's ambition. Du Juan persuaded Ling'er to return to her home.But Ling'er didn't agree and had her own ideas, "I don't want to go home yet, and I'm still in the assessment stage. I want to go back after passing this silk sculpture. No matter whether I can make the list this time, but I think I worked hard." , it should be no problem. There is another reason for going back now. My mother has a special status and is afraid of being talked about. "

What Ling'er said made sense, so Du Juan agreed.It's just that Du Juan didn't expect that after this short rest, would she be able to return to the house smoothly?

Seeing that the day to go home was getting closer, Du Juan wanted to go back and enjoy the life of a young lady again.She knew that the Du Mansion in the dream was fake, but Du Juan had been exhausted in Prince Qing's Mansion these past few days, so it was necessary to go back to the Mansion to take a rest.

With only one day left, Du Juan was as excited as a child about to take a vacation. She and Ling'er were ready to go home. Du Juan still had some clay embryo exercises in her hand that she had not finished yet. She wanted to finish them all and go home.But who would have thought that today this clay embryo seems to be deliberately against itself, unable to stand up no matter what, even if the wooden stick is placed on it.The more anxious Du Juan was, the less shapely the clay embryo she made became.

Ling'er was different. He finished early and left Deng Ze and Du Juan aside.But Du Juan's place was not as good as she wanted. Seeing that the other ladies who came with her left one by one, Du Juan had never been so anxious.It seemed like nothing was working when we got here. When Du Juan saw Ling'er still waiting, she walked over and said to her, "Ling'er, why don't you go back first. It will take some time for me to finish. Today's mud I don’t know what’s wrong with the embryo, but it just doesn’t work in my hands. Maybe I haven’t practiced enough. This silk sculpture is my shortcoming.”

"That won't work, sister. I'd better stay with you. You'd be so scared to be alone in this empty place." Ling'er was concerned about Du Juan.

Du Juan didn't respond and said, "It's okay. There are people guarding the place inside and outside. There's nothing to be afraid of. You go back quickly. I'll go back immediately after I finish it."

"Okay, sister. I will explain it to the master and his wife when I return to the palace. Sister, you must come back early after you finish it. Once the gate of the palace is closed, it will not open again until the day after tomorrow."

"Don't worry, I will do it. Go back quickly." Du Juan said
Once Ling'er left, she would be the only one left in a short time.Mud embryo's practice continued, and she lost track of time as she continued until she was satisfied with it.Du Juan stretched her body and was about to get up to leave when she realized that the surroundings were surprisingly quiet. She became nervous and immediately packed up and planned to leave Prince Qing's Mansion.But when I walked to the door, I found that the yard had been locked for some time.

"Is there anyone? Is there anyone?" Du Juan shouted towards the door, shaking the door with her hands, but no one answered.

How could this happen, the door was closed when there were still people inside?Don't they even know how to take a look?I have been spying on everyone these past few days, but why is no one here this time?Du Juan thought.Here, even if Du Juan screams at the top of her lungs, it will be of no avail. This courtyard is located in a remote area of ​​Prince Qing's Mansion. Apart from Hua'er Zuo's people, there is probably no one here.

Du Juan was unwilling to give in and shouted a few more times. She knew it was useless, but the parents in the house must be very anxious too.The tomb figurines on display were a little scary when I first saw them. Now that it was already night after I finished practicing the clay embryos, looking at them was even more frightening.

"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, Du Juan, you can definitely do it." Du Juan encouraged herself secretly and returned to her desk angrily.Fortunately, there is the light of candle lamps here, but looking at the candles in the candlesticks, there are not many candles left, and I don't know if I can survive the night.When Du Juan didn't come back, everyone in the house became anxious.Ling'er has been waiting outside Du Mansion, looking around the streets and alleys, but there is no sign of Du Juan.Ling'er said anxiously and even more self-blamingly, "If I had known this, I would have brought you back no matter what, and I had to be so serious."

The parents in the house were even more anxious and ordered their men to search everywhere.Seeing his men rushing out of the mansion, Ling'er hurriedly went to the main hall and said to Du Juaniang, "Madam, the young lady must have been locked up in Prince Qing's Mansion. When I left, the young lady had been practicing clay embryo silk sculpture. I'm afraid she forgot. It's time and I'm locked inside. I've already informed my mother and asked her to go over and have a look, but I just don't know if the curfew is coming soon, can I still enter the palace?"

"It's summer and early autumn, and the nights are cool. The place where you practice silk sculpture is in a bamboo forest, so it's already damp and cold. If Juanjuan stays there all night, she'll probably feel cold. She must be safe tonight. Come back." Mother said eagerly
"Why don't we prepare the sedan now? Let's go to Feng Guanjia now and ask her to come forward. Let's go and take our daughter home." Du Juan's father said

Without further ado, when the Du family's parents set off, Manager Feng happened to receive the news.When he heard that there were still disciples in Prince Qing's palace who had not come out, he became anxious.Most of these disciples were daughters of noble families. If something happened, she couldn't afford it.Before the Du family's sedan arrived, they set off for Prince Qing's Mansion.Fortunately, the two carriages met on the same official road, and after meeting each other, they went straight to Prince Qing's Mansion.

The Du family's carriage was ahead and was stopped by guards as soon as it arrived in front of Prince Qing's Mansion.The Du family's father had no choice but to come down and be accommodating, but he didn't want the guard in front of him to only recognize the palace token.

"Just let me go, my beloved daughter is still inside." The Du family's father begged.
The guard shook his head, "You can't enter, but you can enter this palace at will?"

"I have the palace token, is that okay?" Manager Feng stepped forward and handed the palace token to the guard. Just then he heard that Du's sedan chair was being stopped. If she hadn't come forward tonight, she really wouldn't have been able to enter Prince Qing's palace.

The guard looked at the token and let it go.But he still stopped the Du family, "The token can only pass through you. If you have to go and do your business, just go ahead and do it. The rest of you can wait outside."

"You see, just let us in. My beloved daughter is inside, and we are worried..."

The guard replied, "Don't worry about that. The palace is heavily guarded and nothing will happen."

"I'll just go in. Don't worry, I will definitely bring Du Juan out for you."
