If the prince hadn't misjudged him back then, then the ghost king was indeed a handsome man facing the wind, but why he became the blue-faced and long-toothed man later on is unknown.
Qiao Wei dealt with the scene, bid farewell to the prince, and returned to the Ganoderma lucidum hall.
Seeing her come back intact, Qiao Zheng finally let go of his heart that had been hanging for a long time, and went to the kitchen in a happy mood.
Qiao Wei told He Lanqing about the ghost king and the coffin, and by the way, she also expressed her doubts: "Is the prince wrong, or can a person really become so ugly?"
He Lanqing said: "It's not that the prince made a mistake, it's because he took poison himself."
It's not easy to be a ghost king. Many people can't break through the realm of ghost kings in their entire lives. However, there is a poison in this world that can sharply improve the power of dead men. This poison is extremely harmful to the human body. It will not only make people feel It can even completely change a person's appearance after experiencing great pain.
What's even more frightening is that this kind of poison can't be quit after taking it for a few times. It's not that it says it's addictive, but that if you don't take it, your body will weaken rapidly, until you die of weakness.
Qiao Wei sighed: "This price is not so high, just to become the king of ghosts, is it worth it? Is he crazy?"
He Lanqing told the baby girl that this is not the most terrible thing, the most terrible thing is that this kind of poison is extremely cold and poisonous. It was difficult to bear the coldness in his essence, so Concubine Rong was very difficult to conceive, and it could even be said that she was unable to conceive.
Even if you get pregnant by luck, the fetus will never survive the day of birth.
"So that's how the bones in the coffin came from..." No wonder Concubine Rong cried like that. Maybe there was a chance to get pregnant once in this life, and they were all kept until the later stage, but they still couldn't keep it.
After talking with her mother for a while, Qiao Wei went to see Prince Yin.
Qiao Zheng used the medicinal materials brought from the Yin clan for King Yin, and the medicinal effect was more than ten times better than the local medicinal materials. Today, King Yin can walk around in the field.
Qiao Wei didn't go around in circles, and straight to the point talked about Concubine Rong and the King of Ghosts.
"Joe, you just don't give up, do you?"
It is hard enough for him to accept that Concubine Rong had a sweetheart before entering the palace, but now he is required to believe that Concubine Rong not only had an affair with someone before entering the palace, but also conceived a child with her after entering the palace. possible
Qiao Wei knew that he would react in this way, and Qiao Wei didn't intend to believe him as soon as she said it. He had to check some things himself.
Qiao Wei took a pen and paper, drew a sketch of Ganlu Hall and the back mountain, pointed to the sketch and said, "The ghost king's corpse is hidden under this room, and the fetus's skeleton is buried behind this hill. I just dug it today. However, the earth color is very new and you can recognize it at a glance. If you don’t believe me, just go and see for yourself! If after reading it, you still think Concubine Rong is innocent, just pretend that I have never told you these words, I won't say it again in the future!"
…
The busy day was finally over, and Concubine Rong dragged her tired body back to her room.
Fu Ling came forward to report: "When I returned to the empress, no suspicious person was found. The maid who pretended to be a slave should have left."
Concubine Rong waved her hand impatiently: "Understood, let's go down."
Poria withdrew.
Concubine Rong took off her cloak, took off the heavy golden step on her hair, and stared blankly at herself with delicate makeup in the bronze mirror. Suddenly, she saw a silver light on the temple of her hair. She raised her hand and pulled it off. With a white hair, she smiled lonely: "Look, you're not here, I already have white hair..."
After changing into light clothes, Concubine Rong got up and went out of the room, and went to the ice cellar that she had already ordered no one to enter or leave without authorization.
In the ice cellar, she lit the lamp, took out the night pearl from the dark compartment as usual, and gently placed it on the lamp holder.
Then she walked towards the coffin, but suddenly saw a person sitting in front of the coffin, her complexion changed immediately!
"Mother and concubine."
King Yin quietly opened his mouth.
Concubine Rong's expression relaxed, but soon tightened again, looking at King Yin, and then at the coffin behind him, for a moment, her tongue was tied and she couldn't speak.
King Yin said in a low voice: "My concubine, don't be surprised why I'm here. I'm not here to question my concubine Xingshi. I just hope that my concubine will stop hiding anything from me."
Concubine Rong regained her composure, walked over, squeezed the handkerchief in her hand, and said nervously: "Listen to Mother explaining to you, this matter is not what you think..."
"What do I think?" Prince Yin looked at her and asked.
Concubine Rong's heart pounded when she saw such sharp eyes, her lips moved, and she said softly: "Ghost King..."
What is he, but he really can't get it out.
King Yin said for her: "The King of Ghosts is Ye Luo's assassin, the one who robbed and killed me and Qiao Shi that day, mother and concubine might as well tell me, why is his body here with you?"
It's impossible for Concubine Rong to say that she has nothing to do with this corpse. After all, if she really didn't know about it, how could she come here? Could it be that she wants to go to the ice cellar to get things by herself? Are all the servants around her dead? Is it a master's turn to do rough work
She is so familiar with Ye Mingzhu here, she has been here many times, who would believe it
King Yin looked at her fixedly and said: "Actually, what does it matter if you are from Yeluo? You are my mother. Do I deny you because of this?"
Concubine Rong looked at him suddenly: "Yin'er..."
King Yin asked disappointedly: "Are you still unwilling to tell me the truth?"
Concubine Rong closed her eyes, and the hand holding the handkerchief trembled slightly. She seemed to hesitate for a while before finally making up her mind, and said with a choked voice: "Yes, mother is indeed from Yeluo. The story about Miss Rong and Mr. Jiaoxi is not all false. Miss Rong and Mr. Jiaoxi were indeed destined to die for life, and she was indeed forced to replace her distant cousin into the palace. The only difference is that she didn't listen to her father. If not, she eloped with Mr. Jiao Xi. Mother appeared at this time, the Rong family needed a beautiful girl, and mother needed to enter the palace, and mother quickly entered the palace as the young lady of the Rong family smoothly. "
Another thunderbolt struck from the blue sky, and King Yin's hand was tightly clenched into a fist: "What's the matter with Ghost King?"
"He's... he's mother's friend." Concubine Rong said.
"A friend who can have children?!" King Yin slammed the half jade pendant and a piece of red cloth out of the coffin at Concubine Rong's feet.
Concubine Rong's face immediately turned pale!
Kneeling on the ground with a plop, he hugged the red cloth and jade pendant tightly into his arms.
King Yin looked at her almost involuntary reaction, his eyes gradually turned red: "Am I your own?"
Concubine Rong's body froze, she looked at King Yin, wanted to say something, but couldn't say a word.
King Yin already had the answer in his heart, and the tears he had endured for a long time finally rolled down, he hugged his head dejectedly, and his shoulders shook slightly.
Concubine Rong walked over on her knees, tried to break his hand away, looked at his face, and sobbed, "Mother's heart for you is true...you will always be mother's son... mother did this...not only for herself...but also For you... Mother wants to hand over the country to you... Mother wants you to sit on the throne... "
"you go."
"Yin'er..."
King Yin endured and said: "Before I change my mind, leave the palace, leave Daliang, and never come back!"
"Yin'er!"
King Yin roared with red eyes: "You go—"
Qiao Wei already knew it, and Ji Mingxiu was not far away from knowing it. If she didn't leave, she really couldn't leave.
Concubine Rong hugged his hand, tears streaming from her eyes: "Yin'er..."
King Yin took her hand away, stood up, and turned his back: "I will let you go! If you don't leave, I will report you to Emperor Father!"
Concubine Rong stood up crying, walked to the coffin, and hugged the ghost king in the coffin.
King Yin pushed her away: "Since when are you still caring about him?! Is life important, or him?!"
Concubine Rong looked at King Yin firmly and said, "He is important."
King Yin wiped the hot liquid from his face, and picked up the ghost king.
"What are you doing?" Concubine Rong turned pale.
King Yin kept a cold face and said nothing, he found a piece of hemp cloth to wrap him up, and put it on his back.
Concubine Rong's heart relaxed, she wiped her tears with her sleeve, and went out of the cellar with King Yin, and walked towards the door, but when she pushed it open, she was blocked by Ji Mingxiu.
The eyebrows of Prince Yin and Concubine Rong jumped suddenly.
Ji Mingxiu hooked the corners of his lips, and stepped aside with his hands behind his back.
"Your Majesty?" Concubine Rong was dumbfounded.
