The Queen Mother handed over the power of coordinating the six palaces to Concubine Xue, and there was a call from the back of the court to stand up.
The seemingly peaceful harem was instantly surging.
Only Qin Xie went to Shou'an Palace to speak with the little prince as usual.
As soon as he entered the hall, he saw Imperial Physician Ning diagnosing the pulse of the little prince.
Qin Jie hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "What's wrong?"
Imperial Physician Ning turned his head and said, "Return to Jieyu, the weather has turned cold recently, and the little prince has been caught by the wind."
Qin Xue said, "But it's serious?"
"It's not serious, but it's not serious, but the body heat doesn't go away, I'm afraid I have to drink a few medicines." Ning Taiyi paused and said, "Xiaguan is on duty at Shou'an Palace tonight, Jieyu can rest assured. ."
Qin Wei nodded and said, "Lord Lao Ning is here."
Ning Taiyi said: "This is a matter within the rank of the lower officials."
When the sick little prince saw Qin Wei coming, Xiaolian finally saw a smile.
Qin Jie walked over, put her hand into the quilt, and touched his lotus root-like arms and legs.
is a little hot.
Xiao Yun felt a little itchy, and couldn't help but laugh out loud, then started coughing again.
Qin Jie quickly patted him on the back.
Mother Yuan blamed herself on the side: "It's all the fault of the old slave. I didn't look at the window well, which made the eldest prince cold."
Qin Xue said softly: "Mummy doesn't have to blame herself. He is already weak, and it is inevitable that the weather will suddenly turn cold."
While talking here, Xiao Yun raised his hand and rubbed his nose. He was so strong that his snot was rubbed out.
Without looking at it, his short index finger pulled the silver wire to the elder, Qin Ye couldn't help but "huh" when he saw it.
He quickly picked up the handkerchief and wiped it for him.
After a long while, Yuan mama brought the boiled concoction.
Qin Yan sat on the couch and fed him medicine. Although Xiao Yun was sensible, he was only a three-and-a-half-year-old child after all. After taking a sip, his face was so wrinkled that he could barely see his facial features.
The whole person shuddered bitterly.
Don't drink a second sip without saying anything.
Lips pressed tightly.
"Yun'er is obedient, take another sip, and the mother-in-law will bring you some plums to eat." Qin Ye looked at Mother Yuan and said, "Mummy, bring me some plums."
Yuan mama said immediately: "This servant will go."
As soon as Yuan mama left, Xiao Yun looked at Qin Xie and said, "Auntie."
Qin Xie rubbed his little face, "Is it uncomfortable?"
Xiao Yun shook his head, grabbed her arm, and said, "I have something to ask Auntie."
Qin Xie put her ear close to her.
Xiao Yun said seriously: "Why, the mother's family cooperated with the enemy and betrayed the country?"
The medicine bowl in Qin Jie's hand almost didn't hit the ground.
She said softly, "Tell the concubine, who told you this?"
Xiao Yun whispered: "I heard it by the window..."
Hearing this, Qin Yu couldn't help but sank.
Inside the high wall, how can there be so many things that can be heard by chance.
Qin Wei rolled her eyes and said, "You are still young, you don't need to think about this, Yun'er, wait for your mother-in-law for a while."
Xiao Yun looked at her eagerly and said, "Is A-Niang coming back?"
Qin Xie nodded, "Of course, I will accompany you to eat before leaving."
Qin Jie closed the door of the inner room, and her expression changed.
After a while, the mammy held the words plum in her hand and said, "Jieyu is going back?"
Qin Xue said, "I have something to say to my mother."
Mother Yuan said: "If Jieyu has something to say, just tell the servants directly."
Qin Xun repeated what Xiao Yun had just said to Mother Yuan.
As it was about Shou'an Palace, Mother Yuan's eyes changed slightly and she said, "This matter... What is Jieyu going to do?"
"Don't talk about affection, just follow the rules." Qin Xue said: "This matter not only has to be reported to Ning Shang Palace and the Si Lijian, but Eunuch Sheng also has to trouble the mother to inform him. There will be two times, and it will never be tolerated.”
Mother Yuan said, "My servant understands."
Qin Xue took a deep breath and said, "The servants of Shou'an Palace have also been with the concubine for many years. Perhaps the mammy will feel that it is too impersonal to report to the supervisor, but those old things, if not for your majesty to speak in person, No one should let the First Prince know."
Mother Yuan couldn't help but smile when she heard this.
The Toffee sure did not see the wrong person.
Qin Xie accompanies the little prince to dinner, and leaves Shou'an Palace in Shen Shi.
However, on the way back, I suddenly saw a group of eunuchs surrounding the gate of Jingyang Palace.
Qin Jie walked over, frowned slightly, and said, "What's going on?"
"The slave has seen Jieyu." The little eunuch bowed and smiled awkwardly: "This, this, Jingyang Palace Shuyu Garden repaired the wall, and found two mummified corpses."
Shuyu Garden, wasn't that where she lived when she entered the palace
Qin Wei suppressed the chill in her heart and asked, "Again? Before that?"
Changge explained to Qin Jie in a low voice: "Jieyu, don't worry, these are all the corpses of the previous dynasty, and they have also been found in other palaces. Speaking of which, this is the fifth time."
The little eunuch sighed and said, "Yeah, some palace maids have always said that this place is gloomy, and you can always see ghosts. The servant didn't believe it, but it seems to be true."
Qin Jie's face was extremely bad, and she said with a breath, "Which wall?"
The little eunuch also knew that Qin Jieyu once lived in Shuyu Garden, so he shook his head and said, "Jieyu, don't ask..."
Don't ask, let Qin Xie know.
It was the wall where she slept.
When Qin Jie returned to the main hall, her hands and feet were cold.
Although she herself has walked through the underworld, she still feels horrified when she hears such a thing.
At present, all matters in the palace must be submitted to Xianfu Palace, and Concubine Xue will decide.
When Concubine Xue heard this, she could not help frowning.
How long has it been since she took over the Six Palaces, and all the bad things that happened to her...
Concubine Xue rubbed her brows and said, "How is Qin Jieyu?"
The little eunuch bowed and said, "I heard from the people in Jingyang Palace that Qin Jieyu's face turned pale with fright."
Concubine Xue said contemptuously, "I came from a small family, and I'm only in my teens. It's normal to be scared."
The little eunuch said: "Niangniang, now in the palace, everyone is saying that Jingyang Palace is haunted..."
Xue Fei threw down the cup in her hand irritably, took a deep breath, and said, "Qingyue, how did the Queen Mother do when this happened a few times before?"
Qingyue said: "Rong Numaid think about it... The first two times I encountered this incident, people in the palace were panicked, the maids were scary, and they cried at night. , but later, it seems that I only found someone to read the scriptures."
"Bengong has just taken over the Sixth Palace, so what needs to be done still has to be done." Concubine Xue said softly, "Send someone to give my brother a message and ask him to find two Taoist priests for me to exorcise ghosts, and said that the palace will exorcise them. Ghosts do things, so it can be considered to appease Qin Jieyu."
The little eunuch complimented: "My lady is really a bodhisattva."
Concubine Xue smiled and gave the little eunuch a golden leaf.
The little eunuch said immediately: "The slave goes out and knows what to say."
—
After going to court the next day, Lu Ze brought Taoist Lingyun to the Hall of Mental Cultivation.
Eunuch Sheng entered the room and announced, "Your Majesty, Master Lingyun is here."
Xiao Yu said, "Hurry up and give me a seat."
I saw an old man dressed in navy blue burlap, walking in lightly, and the white beard on his chin made him more immortal.
The two sat down around the chess table, and the others all retreated.
The incense of the incense in the hall overflowed, and the leaks were ticking.
The silver-white cold light in winter is sprinkled on the green brick floor through the pick-up window.
Xiao Yu squeezed the white child in his hand, and recounted the recent strange things without changing his face.
Ling Yun said humanely: "Your Majesty is looking for Pindao today to get rid of nightmares?"
Xiao Yuluozi said, "If you say these are nightmares, is it a coincidence that the first concubine said before her death?"
Ling Yun said humanely: "There is indeed a saying in this world that the dying and young children can see the souls of the dead, but it cannot be concluded that the dead are resurrected by just one sentence and a trace of residual poison. Before..."
The moment the words fell, Xiao Yu raised his head and looked at Daoist Lingyun.
"Your Majesty really thinks so." Taoist Lingyun paused.
Daoist Lingyun looked at him and suddenly thought of the autumn of the second year of Yanxi.
At that time, he also looked like this.
"I did see the Empress at Kunning Palace."
- "She spoke to me."
After a long while, Daoist Lingyun said slowly: "Since ancient times, the inner demons are hard to get rid of, this is indeed true..."
Xiao Yu said directly: "I remember that Master Lingyun knows how to draw flags."
Zhaofan refers to the art of summoning the soul.
"Returning the flag to the soul is a secret, and if you do it, you have to bear it, and if you still say that, you may not get what you want."
The emperor was silent for a while, and Daoist Lingyun saw the determination in his eyes and sighed, "Let's try it, poor Daoist."
Taoist Lingyun simply made a hexagram, inserted the flag, and closed his eyes and whispered.
The cold wind was surging, the flag moved slightly, Taoist Lingyun suddenly opened his eyes, frowned, Xiao Yu's heart tightened.
But suddenly, it was quiet again.
Next, no matter what Daoist Lingyun recited, the flag was never moved.
Daoist Lingyun put his hands together and said, "Go back to Your Majesty, the poor Daoist practice is not enough, I am afraid that this opportunity will not be able to continue for His Majesty."
The so-called chance, that is not forced to come.
After Taoist Lingyun left, Xiao Yu lowered his head and smiled in the Hall of Mental Cultivation.
He didn't believe in fate since he was a child, and he didn't believe in these sneaky things. Now, he has become like this.
He knew he was absurd, but he just didn't believe that there were so many coincidences in this world.
Xiao Yu got up and was about to go to Shou'an Palace to see the little prince, but saw Eunuch Sheng running over in a panic, and said anxiously: "Your Majesty, Concubine Xue is doing things in Jingyang Palace right now."
Xiao Yu frowned: "What did you say?"
"Yesterday, yesterday, two female corpses from the previous dynasty were dug up in Jingyang Palace..." Eunuch Sheng sweated on his temples, "Xue Fei and Niangniang specially found a Taoist priest to exorcise the ghosts..."
Xiao Yu's handsome face sank completely.
He gritted his teeth and said, "Follow me to Jingyang Palace."
After the emperor walked into Jingyang Palace, he almost didn't come up in one breath. He was recruiting banners in Yangxin Palace, and Xue Lanyi was exorcising ghosts in Jingyang Palace.
A row of Taoist priests buzzed beside him.
He even suspected that when the Xue family sent Xue Lanyi to the palace, they had bribed Qin Tianjian to change the characters.
When Concubine Xue saw that His Majesty had come down, she turned her head and smiled gracefully, and said blessedly, "My concubine, please greet His Majesty."
He took the initiative to explain: "There have been a lot of strange things in the palace recently, and the concubine was afraid of scaring Qin Jieyu, so she deliberately dragged her brother to find the most powerful Taoist priest in the capital to come here to drive away evil spirits."
The veins on the back of Xiao Yu's hands burst out, and he said sharply, "I see you as evil!"
Concubine Xue's pupils shuddered, and she immediately bowed and said, "My concubine is guilty."
"You are guilty!" Xiao Yu sneered: "Where are you in the palace? As one of the four concubines, you are doing such strange things in the palace. Who gave you the courage?"
Concubine Xue's face turned pale.
She almost forgot. His Majesty is a military commander who has killed people on the battlefield. How could he believe that there are ghosts in this world.
"Chen and concubine know it's wrong!" Concubine Xue immediately knelt on the ground and blinked with the people around her: "Hurry up and tell them to stop!"
As soon as the voice fell, Qin Jie on the side couldn't hold it any longer.
Shaking his body, he fell down.
