The moon was dark and the wind was high, and after midnight, there was only the sound of the cold wind whistling on the palace road. The gate of the Hall of Mental Cultivation was closed, and a few black figures flashed under the palace wall, passed the guards outside, and quietly entered the courtyard.
"Your Majesty, is this too risky?" the palace maid asked tremblingly as she leaned beside her.
The quilt in the cold palace was thin, Meng Guipin snorted coldly, looked out the window and said, "What's our business? This is father's arrangement, and you and I don't need to do anything, what are you afraid of?"
"But..." The maid pursed her lips: "If you get caught, the consequences should be very serious, right?"
"No matter how serious it is, how can it be worse than now?" Looking around, Meng Guifei's eyes were full of despair: "Women in the harem, if they come here, their lives will be over. Now that it's over, what are we afraid of? "
Thinking about it, it seems to be the same, the maid relaxed a lot, and whispered: "Then I hope they can succeed."
Concubine Meng Gui pursed her lips, her expression was in a daze for a while, and then she said in a low voice: "There is nothing that can't be done, women are timid, and besides, who in this palace has never done anything wrong? She is pregnant, she will definitely be frightened, If it's mild, it can cause fetal gas, and if it's severe, it's a miscarriage, no matter what the result is, it's enough for her to calm down for a while."
As long as De Concubine calms down, the harem will be stable, and father and the others will be able to find an opportunity to proceed with their next plan. However, Concubine Meng smiled lightly. There was no saving her in the plan. Her final value to the family was to provide the guard duty list and topographic map of the Hall of Mental Cultivation.
"Ah!"
A gust of wind blew, and the maid who was watching the night outside the Hall of Mental Cultivation suddenly sneezed, and the palace lantern in her hand suddenly went out.
She glanced at the lamp suspiciously, took out the torch, and was about to light it, when suddenly a hand stretched out behind her, covering her mouth and nose tightly.
The palace lady was shocked, she raised her foot and wanted to kick back, but when she turned her head, she didn't see the face, but saw clumps of black hair, with green eyes shining behind the hair, and suddenly she could see the bloody man. tusks.
Ghost!
The exclamation was completely muffled, and the maid's eyes were wide open. After a few moments, she rolled her eyes and passed out.
The two "ghosts" parted their hair and smiled at each other, but they were startled by each other, pushed each other, opened the door and went into the main hall.
As Concubine Meng Gui said, there are too many people who do bad things in this palace, and no one is not afraid of being killed by wronged souls, and Concubine De is certainly no exception. They don't need to do any real harm, as long as they cause her a certain amount of mental pressure. up.
The door opened, and the wind blew in from the outside, blowing the gauze curtains flying, making it impossible to see clearly what was going on in the inner hall.
"Ah woo—" the ghost in front called out tentatively.
There was no response from the inner hall.
"Maybe he is fast asleep?" The ghost behind muttered softly, kicked the ghost in front, and the ghost in front staggered and rushed into the inner hall.
The bed was bulging, obviously because someone had slept there. The two "ghosts" were professional players. After choosing the position, they began to arrange it calmly. One hung himself on the beam with a hemp rope, and the other saw that he was ready. It's time to wake up the person on the bed.
The one hanging from the beam was ready to leave the ground, and was about to cry when he heard a scream!
It's normal to scream at this time, after all, the "ghost" below is quite scary, and it's only worthy of people putting on makeup for so long. But what the hanged man couldn't understand was, why did the voice sound so manly
Looking down, no one sat up on the bed, but his disappointing companion sat on the ground in shock, his legs trembling.
"What?" He stretched out his hand and pulled the rope under his neck, and asked with difficulty.
The ghost on the ground pointed at the bed tremblingly. He glanced over and saw that the quilt was lifted, revealing a face like a mummy with a spell stuck on it. After falling, the mummy on the bed slowly started to get up.
"No... no way?" The people on the ground opened their eyes wide in horror, brushed away the hair in front of them, and saw the mummy sat up completely with a "chuckle"!
"Ah!" The "ghost" below turned pale from fright. Crawl out like shit. The person hanging from the beam was also terrified. With a slip of his hand, he slipped his neck into the noose and was almost hanged to death.
"Help... help..." The other person had already run out madly, and there was no time to take care of him. The hanging ghost stretched his hands over his head and grabbed the rope above it with difficulty, and it took him a while to get himself out. He fell to the ground and looked at the mummy on the bed in horror, for fear that it would suddenly jump down.
However, after sitting on the ground and looking at it for a while, the mummy didn't respond at all.
While his legs were weak, this "ghost" took a bold look, only to find that the mummy was actually supported by a wooden frame
"What the hell?!" He quickly stood up, boldly approached and kicked the mummy. There was only a "crash", and the weakly assembled "mummy" instantly fell apart.
Fake! Patting himself on the chest, he hurriedly turned his head to call his companions back. How could this little trick scare them away
But when he turned his head, he saw a grimace in the corner, reflected by the green palace lanterns, that face was slowly revealed from behind the long hair, and the shadows on the face were all shadows caused by the lights, it looked terribly scary .
The eyes were wide open, the "ghost" was startled, and he fell to the ground and backed away: "You...you..."
"Slave Lian'er, please greet my lord—" A long and resentful voice slowly came out of the female ghost's mouth word by word: "My lord is here to pick up Lian'er, right?"
The people on the ground were frightened and dumbfounded: "Who is Lian... Lian Er?"
"It seems that not many people remember me..." The female ghost's voice became more sad: "It's the one you pushed into the dry well and fell to death! Look, my leg is broken..."
As she spoke, she lifted up her long skirt, and there were really no legs underneath.
"..." The ghost couldn't pretend anymore, the people on the ground screamed, and ran out!
"Damn—"
In a panic, this person wanted to leave the Hall of Mental Cultivation through the main entrance, but when he opened the door, he was stopped by the guards outside the door: "The time has passed, people in the hall are not allowed to go out."
The man was so frightened that his face turned pale, he grabbed the guard and said: "I am not from the Hall of Mental Cultivation, please see clearly, I am a ghost!"
The guard outside the door glanced at him calmly, stretched out his hand and pushed him back into the yard, and closed and locked the door again.
The "female ghost" floated out of the room, looked at him resentfully and said, "Everyone is a ghost, what are you so afraid of me for?"
"No, no, no!" The man at the door pulled off his black robe, revealing the eunuch's clothes: "I'm not a ghost, and I don't know you, let me go!"
"In these years, I have seen people pretending to be ghosts, but I have never seen ghosts pretending to be people." The female ghost said in a sinister voice, "If you were a human, it would be even better, it must be delicious."
As he said that, he stretched out his white bone claws and slowly approached him.
"No—" There were screams in the yard, but the guards outside ignored them and watched quietly. One of the guards even brought dry food out to eat, and listened happily to the "ghost" chasing people inside.
"Come on, there's a ghost, why didn't anyone wake up with such a loud noise!" The eunuch ran around the yard in dismay, and the "female ghost" behind him followed leisurely, saying leisurely: " I have magic power, okay? A barrier has been set up here, no one can hear your voice, you are destined to be my dinner today... oh no, supper."
The eunuch was so frightened that his legs trembled, he ran three steps and fell two steps, his nose was bruised and his face was swollen, and finally he knelt down in mourning: "Great Immortal, please forgive me!"
"It's useless to beg me. I'm very hungry. I chased you just for fun. Now that you don't run away, it's no longer fun, so just eat." The female ghost stretched out her hand, as if to strangle him.
"I can't run anymore... Daxian, spare me, I'm just entrusted by others, and it's a matter of loyalty, Daxian, please let me go!" A smell of urine came over, Huachun took two steps back in disgust, Napa The son covered his mouth and nose: "Who entrusted you?"
The eunuch has lost all reason and just wants to escape from here. He has no doubts about the female ghost's interrogation, and said directly: "Eunuch Liu from the Ministry of Internal Affairs asked us to come, and gave me Three taels of silver and two jars of candy, I said that I can leave as long as I show my face, but I didn't expect to run into the Immortal, and I beg the Immortal to spare my life, please spare my life!"
From the Ministry of Internal Affairs? ! Hua Chun was a little surprised. The Ministry of Internal Affairs can be regarded as the hub of the harem, and someone inside wants to harm her
"I am guarding this Hall of Mental Cultivation. You have to meet me when it gets dark." Hua Chun said quietly, "If you tell me the full name of that Eunuch Liu, I will go find him. Don't be embarrassed." you."
"Okay, okay!" The little eunuch hurriedly said, "Liu Shoucai!"
The corners of his mouth twitched slightly, Hua Chun was no longer in the mood to complain about the name, so he waved his hand and said, "Let's go."
"Thank you, Great Immortal, thank you, Great Immortal!" The little eunuch scrambled and crawled to open the door, but when he couldn't open it, he climbed over the wall and left when his legs gained strength.
The screams spread all the way from the palace road outside the Hall of Mental Cultivation, Hua Chun pulled up her hair, and shouted to the side: "It's time for work, Qing Niao, write down the name he just said, tomorrow the eunuch Bring the Hall of Mental Cultivation."
"Yes." The door of the side hall opened, Qing Niao responded, and carried her skirt to the main hall to tidy up the things on the bed.
The next day, rumors of ghosts in the Palace of Mental Cultivation spread in the palace, and concubines from all walks of life came to greet them, Hua Chun just pretended to lie on the soft couch, looking frightened.
"Your Majesty, you need to continue to use some medicines for confinement." The imperial doctor felt her pulse, frowned and said, "Perhaps she was overly frightened, and the fetal image is a little unstable."
Glancing at him, Hua Chun thought to herself that my old lady frightened people yesterday, but she wasn't frightened, she was frightened by a ghost
"My concubine understands medicinal materials." Tang said softly, "If you don't worry about it, you can give the anti-fetal medicine to my concubine."
