Rebirth: Ruyi goes crazy in the harem

Chapter 79: Haunted Xianfu Palace

Su Lujun glanced at Gao Xiyue, who had an unnatural expression, and turned to continue, "But fortunately, the imperial concubine arranged for a shaman to perform a ritual, which was able to suppress the evil spirit.

I am discussing with my sister, Concubine Hui, whether we should take time out to visit them in Yonghe Palace."

Gao Xiyue swallowed her saliva and said with a slight tremor in her voice, "Empress Xian, do you also believe that there are ghosts in this world... and ghost lights?"

Ruyi's face was solemn, with deep worry in her eyes, "I didn't believe it at first.

But a few days ago, I met Lady Mei. She described the appearance and figures of the two female ghosts, one red and one white, in great detail.

Besides, everyone in Yonghe Palace said they saw it, except for Concubine Mei and Concubine Liu. This makes me feel a little suspicious."

Su Lujun lowered her voice, as if she was afraid of startling something unknown, and said cautiously, "I heard that the pipa piece played by Concubine Mei was very weird.

It seems that it can really summon the souls of the deceased and let them cross the Forgotten River to be reincarnated as soon as possible.

However, Lady Mei's skill was not enough and she played the wrong tune. What she summoned was not an ordinary soul, but a vengeful soul, a fierce ghost.

If there is someone who is proficient in pipa playing, maybe they can really ferry away those ghosts."

Ruyi frowned, as if she had thought of something. A flash of horror flashed across her eyes, "Empress Chun, be careful with your words.

The so-called ghosts, gods and spirits are just words used by people to scare people. Don't believe them completely.

How could the resentful spirits in the palace be easily disturbed by a piece of pipa music? You should stop thinking about these unnecessary things."

Su Lujun felt a little aggrieved, "But, everyone in Yonghe Palace said they saw it, it can't be fake..."

"Precisely because only the Yonghe Palace has seen it, it is not credible." Ruyi pretended to be calm, but her hands were shaking slightly as she twisted the handkerchief.

“I know that you are all spreading rumors that the so-called female ghost in white with a broken head and blood is Ah Ruo, and the female ghost in red with her heart gouged out is Su Lian.

But have you ever thought about why they had to go to Yonghe Palace? Was it because Concubine Mei and Concubine Liu harmed them?

Concubine Mei had only been favored for a short time before she closed herself off to recuperate. Concubine Liu had never fought with anyone except for sleeping with the emperor, and was the best-tempered of all.

Why would the ghost go after these two honest people instead of looking for the person who killed them? Isn't that ridiculous?"

Su Lujun's tone became even lower, "Your Highness, you are right.

But precisely because Yonghe Palace was not the one that killed them, the female ghosts did not do anything out of line to Yonghe Palace.

I think these two female ghosts might be very grateful to Lady Mei. After all, it was she who led the ghosts out so that the female ghosts could take revenge..."

"Stop talking nonsense!" Gao Xiyue, who was dazed, seemed to finally come to her senses. She shouted loudly, scaring both Ruyi and Su Lujun.

Gao Xiyue realized her own gaffe and quickly covered it up, "Your Highness, I am tired and will take my leave first."

After saying this, he squatted down and saluted perfunctorily, then left quickly with disordered and staggering steps as if he was escaping.

After Gao Xiyue left, Ruyi's expression returned to normal, without any trace of panic.

Su Lujun looked at her, and their eyes were filled with unspeakable depths.

After returning to Yikun Palace, Ruyi sat at the table and looked at the half-copied "The Universal Door of Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva", with a cold look on her face.

"惢心, go tell Concubine Mei that she was frightened. I will send Doctor Qi to prescribe some tranquilizing soup for her and Concubine Liu.

My dear lady, don’t forget to drink.”

惢心 responded and retreated.

Ruyi picked up the pen and continued to copy a few more words, but she still couldn't calm down.

Looking at the scripture in front of her, the coldness in Ruyi's eyes gradually deepened, and then was tinged with a sharp evil spirit.

"A Ruo, you and I are master and servant after all, and I can't bear to see you being schemed against and used by others.

Let me kill someone with a borrowed knife, so that I can avenge you and save you from dying in vain.

This way, we have fulfilled our years of relationship as master and servant."

Inside the Xianfu Palace, a group of young palace maids were surrounding Gao Xiyue, giving her a bath with mugwort petals.

Gao Xiyue closed her eyes and enjoyed it, and asked, "Moxin, how has Yonghe Palace been these days?"

Mo Xin wiped Gao Xiyue's arm with a handkerchief and replied, "It is said that ever since the shaman performed the dance for the great god in Yonghe Palace, the ghost fire and female ghosts have not appeared again.

But Concubine Mei and Concubine Liu are both timid, saying that they were frightened and have not gone out in the past few days."

Gao Xiyue sighed softly and looked relaxed, "I have been taking mugwort baths, drinking mugwort wine, and using mugwort sachets and pillows recently, and I don't feel as cold anymore.

After you finish soaking, help me go back to sleep for a while."

Just as he finished speaking, there were bursts of crows' cries outside the window, hoarse and shrill, which made people feel cold in their hearts.

I don’t know what’s wrong with these crows tonight, but they are cawing very loudly.

Xing Xuan saw that Gao Xiyue's body was trembling slightly, and thought that the water was not hot enough, so she picked up the kettle and added hot water into the basin.

The water in the basin was already slightly hot, but Gao Xiyue's body was still shaking.

Xing Xuan had no choice but to persuade him, “Master, we still have some tranquilizers prescribed by Doctor Qi.

If you are not feeling well, I will make you some calming soup later so you can drink it and go to bed early."

Gao Xiyue nodded as if she had grasped a life-saving straw and said, "Xingxuan, go and make it now. Make it thicker. I...I need to go to bed early tonight."

That night, Gao Xiyue fell asleep early as she wished, but her sleep was not sound.

In a daze, she seemed to hear A Ruo's voice.

"Gao Xiyue...give me your life..."

"It's all your fault... you instigated me... I was tortured... and lost my life..."

"You liar... Why was the carriage you arranged for me intercepted... You are simply lying to me... You bitch... Give me back my life..."

"Why did you ask someone to give me a mute drug... Gao Xiyue... I am taking the blame for you... I will not let you go..."

"Gao Xiyue... I'm back... I've been in hell for so long... You have to go to hell with me..."

"Do you know how terrible the punishment of the Ministry of Punishment is... Gao Xiyue... I want you to accompany me in hell to suffer it again..."

"You are the one who deserves to die...give me your life...give me your life..."

Ever since Gao Xiyue stepped onto the ground barefoot that night and ran around like a madman, her body suddenly collapsed.

I was in a trance and suspicious all day long.

Her already pale face looked even uglier and her once bright red lips no longer had any color.
