Opening her eyes again, Qing Huan realized that she had returned to the bridge of Naihe.
The man sitting by the bluestone, who seemed to be one with the stone, remained silent, as if he couldn't see her at all. Now Qing Huan has also learned to let go of unnecessary curiosity. She walked slowly onto the bridge, and the female ghost Hong Luan was looking at the Karma Stone. The youngest son is a world-renowned imperial merchant, and the two brothers were harmonious and friendly, and both of them died in bed.
Qing Huan walked to the wooden table and scooped up a bowl of clear soup. The soup became cloudy the moment he scooped it up, and then became clear again in a short while, so fast that it almost made people think he was dazzled.
"...What is this?" the female ghost Hongluan asked.
Qing Huan smiled slightly, "These are the tears of your life, your emotions and desires, great sorrow and great joy."
The female ghost Hongluan took the soup and drank it slowly, the taste was extremely weird, it was hard to tell whether it was sweet or salty. Qing Huan looked at her lightly and said, "Go ahead."
The female ghost Hongluan hesitated for a moment, then Fang asked: "Is the world over there good?"
"I don't know." Qing Huan answered her. "But when you walk across this bridge, you can be reborn."
So the female ghost Hongluan lightly kissed her: "Thank you, miss, please tell me your name?"
Qing Huan tilted her head and thought for a while, then said: "The name is not that important, even if I tell you, you won't remember it."
The female ghost Hongluan restrained her expression, and walked towards the other side of the Naihe Bridge, stepping back and forth. The ghosts in the Wangchuan River subsided slowly, and the river surface returned to calm. Qing Huan sat at the table, seeming to be talking to himself, or speaking to someone: "The past has passed, and the future is yet to come. It's useless to think too much."
At this moment, there were bursts of crying in the distance. The voice was tender and clear, but it was extremely sad. The ghosts who had just calmed down began to go crazy again. They rushed out of the water one after another, opened their festering eye sockets, opened their rotten mouths, and stretched their separated arms, staring at it. The new ghost coming across the bridge.
It was a woman whose face was already invisible. The clothes on her body were withered and ruined, and there were even cobwebs on her head. It seemed that she had suffered a lot in her lifetime. At this moment she was looking around in horror, and even though she couldn't see the ghosts on the river, she still felt extremely frightened.
Qing Huan said softly: "Who are you and why are you here?"
The soup in the pot began to boil slowly again, turbid and clear, and it was boiled with the resentment of thousands of ghosts as fire. The female ghost seems to have felt Qing Huan's kindness, but it seems that she is still full of guard against Qing Huan. All the beautiful and noble women in the world have extremely vicious hearts. She must be careful, be careful...
Seeing the female ghost's appearance, Qing Huan frowned, she was wearing a white dress, and she didn't know where it came from, anyway, she had been dressed like this since she returned to Naihe Bridge. Looking at the surface of the water, although he doesn't have a real body, he has a beautiful appearance and an elegant temperament. Even if the softness and kindness in the eyes are released, it is inevitable that people will feel uncomfortable—especially for the extraordinarily fragile new ghost.
It's too easy to be alarmed. In such a dark and gloomy place, there is a woman like her who is out of tune with the environment. No wonder this new ghost looks like she has seen a ghost, cough, isn't she just a ghost.
"Don't worry, I won't hurt you, my name is Qing Huan, what about you?"
Under Qing Huan's comfort, the female ghost finally calmed down. She glanced at Qing Huan timidly, and said slowly, "I...my name is Zhu Cai."
"Where are you from?"
"I..." the female ghost Zhu Cai showed a dazed look. "I just remember that I was so cold... Someone threw me into the dry well of the cold palace. I was so cold and it hurt so much! I begged desperately for mercy, but she just refused to let me go. I, I didn't mean it. That day At night, I didn’t mean to seduce the emperor...I’m not, I’m not! Your Majesty! Your Majesty, spare your life! Your Majesty, spare your life!” As soon as the words fell, she changed her timid appearance and became extremely cold, “I’m not going to let you go even if I’m a ghost! Over you! I want revenge! I want revenge!"
Qing Huan quietly watched her go crazy, picked up the teapot on the table and poured a cup of tea, took a sip, and sighed in her heart, "Do I want to live like this forever? That girl never came out again. Zhu Cai's woman can't tell right from wrong..."
At this moment, the Karma Stone suddenly lit up. Qing Huan looked over with a tacit understanding, and suddenly knew about the life of the female ghost Zhu Cai.
It turned out that this Zhu Cai was originally an ordinary court lady in the Great Wei Palace, although she was quite handsome, but in the palace full of beauties, she was really not good enough. Ever since Emperor Jingheng of the Great Wei ascended the throne, although there were quite a few in the Sangong and Sixth Courtyards, he never had the luck of any woman. No one knew why. The highest status in the harem is Concubine Ke Shu, whose father is the Duke of Ding, holding a tiger talisman in his hand, and is extremely powerful. Concubine Ke Shu has a world-renowned appearance. She has been known as a talented woman since she was a child. She is especially good at dancing and has several poems handed down from generation to generation. However, she is jealous by nature. Although Emperor Jingheng never visited the concubines, she was jealous However, if Emperor Jing Heng said a few more words to a certain concubine, she would try her best to make the other party suffer, and if the other party was an ordinary court lady or a low-ranking talent who agreed, she would be silenced directly.
Zhu Cai died because of this.
Envoys from neighboring countries came to pay tribute. After the banquet, Concubine Ke Shu secretly gave Emperor Jing Heng a love potion. She wanted to achieve a good deed, but in the end, not only failed, but also made Zhu Cai, a low-level court lady, cheaper! How could Concubine Ke Shu not be angry! On the second day, he ordered Zhu Cai to be poured with avoiding son soup, and then he was beaten to death with sticks, and the body was randomly thrown into the dry well of the cold palace. Zhu Cai's soul was trapped in it. Emperor Jingheng asked about this later, but Concubine Ke Shu didn't change her face, saying that the maid was unlucky and died of a sudden illness. This matter was thus revealed.
This Zhu Cai was just a little court lady in this life, but she was a monk with great merit in her previous life. Qing Huan looked at the Karma Stone and was in a trance when she saw the female ghost Zhu Cai regained her senses. Fourth Concubine Lie, so what if I spare my life? Now that I am killed in vain, I cannot let her go no matter what!"
However, people with great merit will not turn into ghosts after death. Therefore, even if Zhu Cai wanted to take revenge, he was powerless.
Qing Huan glanced at her and asked, "Do you hate Concubine Ke Shu and Emperor Jing Heng?"
"I don't blame the emperor." said the female ghost Zhu Cai. "He is the emperor. It is his freedom to favor whomever he pleases. What's more, the emperor is only cold-tempered, but he never kills innocent people indiscriminately. What I hate is the inhumane Concubine Ke Shu! All these years, those who died at her hands People don't know how many people, but she still covers the sky with one hand! When the emperor asked about this matter, she actually wanted to hide it from the sky, and she was full of absurd sentences!" Said, the female ghost Zhu Cai showed extreme hatred again. "I want her to get retribution! I want her to lose everything she owns! The emperor's favor, the world's praise, her prominent family background... I want her to lose! Lose!"
She opened her teeth and claws excitedly, and the ghosts in the Wangchuan River seemed to be stimulated too. Qing Huan was indescribably irritated, and when she turned her beautiful eyes, the ghosts in the river were so frightened that they all fell silent! Just when Qing Huan was wondering why this was the case, she changed the scene and left Naihe Bridge in a blink of an eye.
Wait a minute... She hasn't had time to read the Karma Stone, about Emperor Jingheng.
However, compared with that, the most important thing is that there seems to be something wrong with her current body? ! Qing Huan stretched out her hands in amazement and looked at them. These small hands are truly small. Look at this age, at most... five years old, right
In this case, no matter how beautiful and charming she is, she can't compete for favor!
But where is this place? It was gray, not at all like a magnificent palace.
When Qing Huan was wondering, a woman wearing a female officer's costume ran over. Seeing her here, she was relieved at first, and then said angrily: "You child! Why are you so disobedient! Is this also a place for you to come? Hurry up, hurry up, go with my aunt!"
Qing Huan was forced to be dragged away by her, not knowing why this woman had such a frightened expression. There... isn't it the entrance to a rockery? What's all the fuss about? ! Although she thought so in her heart, she still had a cute appearance on the surface.
The female officer carried her into the room, pointed at the tip of her little nose, and said: "Remember what my aunt said, you must not run around in the palace, especially in the cold palace, understand? As for the rockery, you can't get close to it." , there are evil spirits inside, they only eat a white and tender little girl like you!"
Qing Huan obediently made an expression of anxiety and fear. Seeing this, the female officer showed a satisfied expression: "Qing Huan, please wait here for my aunt, okay?"
... Qing Huan? !
Now Qing Huan was stunned, why, isn't she attached to the body of the female ghost Zhu Cai? How could it be your own name? !
Seeing that she didn't speak, the female officer thought she was frightened, and immediately coaxed her a few words lovingly, and then left in a hurry. Qing Huan sat on the bed, she still didn't quite understand what was going on, she thought that in the world of the female ghost Hongluan, it would be great if she gained the ability to manipulate people's hearts, but in the world of the female ghost Zhu Cai... , she is confused again!
However, compared with the world of the female ghost Qiqi, she is stable enough to immediately accept this fact, and find ways to make her situation more favorable.
The rockery just now... Qing Huan has very bad memories of the rockery, but in her memory, there is a dungeon under the rockery in the benefactor's mansion. Maybe, she should try her luck there? Most importantly, just like the tampered bowl of bird's nest soup, she just felt that she should go there for a while.
Qing Huan is a very active person, she immediately jumped out of the bed, but she was too small and the bed was too high, she almost fell and ate shit.
