A Guest in a Ghost House

Chapter 125: Ancient city obsession 5

Views:

"Queen, queen, he, he is not human."

The queen is not human, well, I agree with this point, it is impossible for a human to rub a rotten human head face to face like a lover. Not to mention the concubine Xian who lives deep in the palace, even I, who is in contact with ghosts every day, can't bear it.

But didn't Concubine Xian become a ghost? In order to get revenge, even if I endured the disgustingly, it would be over, but I didn't ask, because I didn't think it seemed appropriate to ask a woman this kind of question.

"Sir, please help our group of people who died unjustly." Concubine Xian's tone became sad, knowing that her death is a good thing, I must help Concubine Xian, I really feel disgusted by that queen. On the one hand, on the other hand, we have helped Concubine Xian, and Concubine Xian's grievances have dissipated, so only obsession is left, which is a very good thing for us.

"Concubine Xian, how do you think I can help you?" This is just an illusion, I really don't know how to help me, it probably won't be as simple as rushing over and stabbing the queen twice.

"Sir, you don't know something. There is a corpse buried under the north gate of the imperial city. As long as you can take out the corpse and bury it in a proper way, I will be very grateful. You don't have to bother you about the following matters."

This request is simple, but whose corpse is it? Concubine Xian is still the second prince, no, didn't it mean that their bones were all sealed in the well? But I didn't care, no matter whose corpse it is, as long as it can help Concubine Xian get rid of her grievances, the process is not important.

It's just the gate of the city. There should always be soldiers guarding it. Even if I can't see me, no one will turn a blind eye when they see the mud splashing on the ground.

Originally I wanted to ask Concubine Xian, but I was afraid that it would affect my image as an expert in front of Concubine Xian, so I could only agree to it first. I thought it would not attract too much attention if I dug carefully in the middle of the night. After all, soldiers They should all be on the city wall, since the city gates are closed, who would hide in the dark city gate hole

I agreed to Concubine Xian, and I left. It took three o'clock in the middle of the night to dig up the bones. Before digging up the bones, I had to find out where the North City Gate was, and before I found out where the North City Gate was, I had to find out where the North Gate was. From where to leave the palace.

Leaving the dry well, I walked around the palace for a few times. There was nothing but a house in front of me. Looking at the people around me, I guess they didn't even go out of the harem. Along the way, I followed several eunuchs and maids, but unfortunately, none of them took the path I wanted to take. After a few moments, I realized that I was back in a familiar place.

The queen's bedroom, oh my god, this is the last place I want to come, although there is no danger, but when I think of the queen's appearance, I can't help but feel sick.

The queen seems to be absent, there are very few people in the palace, and there are not many eunuchs and maids. I randomly ate some snacks in a side hall, and then followed a hurried lady, because I heard the maid and others said that I wanted to To deliver soup to the emperor.

I'm not in the mood to see what the emperor looks like now, but I know that the emperor's place is close to the gate, because when going to court, a large group of ministers can't pass through most of the palace before going to court.

The maid walked quickly, but very steadily, without spilling the soup in her hand, and she was very familiar with the palace. After a few turns, I saw a huge square. I have been here before, not long after entering the gate. It seems that I finally followed the wrong person this time.

I stopped, and instead of following the maid who was obviously walking towards the building complex, I waited in the square. A few officials in government clothes were talking softly and coming from a distance. It seemed that they were about to go out. palace.

Several officials passed me shoulder to shoulder, and I quickly followed. After walking for a long time, I saw the gate through which I came in. I hated the slowness of the officials and wanted to go out quickly, but the words of those officials slowed down my pace. It slowed down slowly.

"The queen is so pitiful."

"Isn't it? Everyone is like this, and there are still rumors outside, alas."

"Your majesty has no other choice. The general is still fighting outside, and he will be able to return within two months. Now that Concubine Xian is dead, if the truth is revealed again, the general...can only wrong the queen."

"well."

I walked out of the palace with several officials, but instead of looking for the city gate, I found a place to sit by the side of the palace gate. My head was full of mud. What's going on? The empress is so pitiful. Yes, he was wronged, what kind of plot is this

The formation of grievances must be caused by being wronged, and obviously, if what Concubine Xian said is not the truth, it is impossible for grievances to arise for a long time. To be honest, the queen's image in my mind is very bad, and I don't believe what those officials said from the bottom of my heart.

But now my judgment is too important, if I make a wrong judgment, not only me, but even Wu Jian and Sister Hua will probably die. It seems that I need to investigate this matter carefully, and I cannot make a blind decision.

After thinking about it for a while, I plan to enter the palace and then go to the emperor. I should be able to know part of the truth by his side. At least they can tell whether those officials are lying.

I stood up, went back to the palace, and then walked along the widest road. This should be the road that all officials take when they go to court, and there is only one road, so there is no danger of going wrong.

Not daring to go too far, I searched slowly around the main hall of the upper court, and found the emperor's place in a short while. There was no way, the eunuch's voice persuading the emperor to eat was too loud, and I didn't want to pay attention.

Walking over, this is a side hall, it looks like it should be a temporary resting place for the emperor, the security is very strict, of course, it is of no use to me.

The door of the side hall was open, and when I walked to the door, I saw a haggard middle-aged man in a yellow robe reclined on a bench, and a eunuch in brocade clothes was kneeling in front of him, holding his hands high. Holding a bowl, he persuaded the emperor to have a meal.

I went in and found a corner and stood there. These people couldn't hear me, so I couldn't ask, and I probably couldn't ask, or some guards, experts, etc. came to surround me. If I wanted to find out the truth, I could only ask. Wait for the emperor to speak.

Obviously, the emperor didn't mean to speak. He waved his hand to signal that he would not eat, so he picked up a stack of memorials and looked at it. I was standing on the side of the emperor, and I could clearly see the emperor's sight from my angle. He didn't put it on the memorial, but looked at the top of the memorial, his eyes were empty, and he was probably distracted.

The eunuch did not leave after receiving the emperor's signal, but still knelt there holding the bowl motionless, not looking at the emperor with worried eyes.

This is a loyal eunuch.

After standing for a while, I couldn't stand it any longer, so I sat down on a chair on one side. There were so many delicious foods on the table next to it, which made my mouth water. Can stay foolishly.

Just imitating the emperor's appearance, my mind was wandering, just when I didn't know what I was thinking, the emperor suddenly spoke, which made me feel refreshed.

"How long will the general return to court?"

The eunuch didn't know why, he was startled for a moment, then bowed and said: "The general will return to court in two months."

The emperor nodded, but did not speak again. Seeing that my heart was like a cat's paw, I almost lifted the chair under my buttocks and threw it at him. Isn't this a tantalizing thing? Unfortunately, I can't lift the chair. I have already studied it when I was bored. It is true. The mahogany one is probably heavy by me.

The side hall was silent again, I don't know how long I waited, the emperor took the memorial in the hand just now, sighed and said to the eunuch: "Get up, I really don't have any appetite."

The eunuch said sharply: "Your Majesty, the empress made this herself."

Here I am, I sat up straight involuntarily, queen, if the queen is really like what Concubine Xian said, then the emperor probably won't eat it, but if it's just because of the general, then the emperor will definitely eat it, even if it is I can't eat it, but because of guilt, I should eat it all.

It's a pity that the emperor is not an ordinary person after all, and his performance was completely beyond my expectation.

The emperor shook his head slightly, smiled, then walked to the eunuch, just looked at the soup, didn't refuse, but didn't eat it, just looked at it.

Damn, what does this mean? Well, I guessed wrong, no wonder I can be the emperor.

"Your Majesty," the eunuch lifted the bowl up and said, "Is this servant ordering someone to heat it up?"

The emperor shook his head, still looking at the soup, it seemed that there was something very interesting in it, looking at the concentration, he just had to pick it up with his hands.

The eunuch didn't speak any more, but lifted Tang up high, so that the emperor could see it more clearly.

The emperor looked at it for a while, but didn't speak, and went back to the bench to lie down again, and then continued to wander, this time without using the memorial to cover it.

The eunuch still didn't move, I was so admired in my heart, I almost couldn't sit still, he knelt for so long, he didn't even move, it was really professional.

The emperor was in a daze for longer this time than last time, and there was no interlude, only a little maid sneaked a look inside, then sighed silently and shook her head and left.

I know this maid, she is the maid who served soup from the Queen's bedroom. Could it be to see if the emperor eats or not? If so, it means that the queen is really good to the emperor, but this doesn't mean anything. After all, if she doesn't get the emperor's support, she won't kill Concubine Xian in the queen's bedroom.

But speaking of it, just like the queen's sharp-mouthed monkey cheeks, the emperor's taste is really a bit heavy.

The emperor didn't know how long he was in a daze, and finally got up slowly, and then signaled the eunuch to come over. The eunuch must have knelt for too long, and when he got up, he staggered and poured the soup on the ground.

The eunuch knelt down again to plead guilty, and I was also very depressed. I originally planned to use this bowl of soup to see what the emperor thought of the queen, but I didn't expect this to be the result.

Wait, the emperor didn't do it on purpose.
