Nine thousand years old [rebirth]

Jingren Palace was in chaos.

The palace people ran around in panic, and the patrolling guards outside were called in, but they searched the entire Jingren Palace, tossing from midnight to broad daylight, but did not find the "ghost".

Concubine Wen Gui had recovered from her fright, and with her hair disheveled, she yelled at the guards who were searching and the panicked palace people, and finally sent the guards away temporarily.

It was already bright outside, but the sun was not out. It was a cloudy day.I didn't think it before, but after last night, Concubine Wen Gui realized that the Jingren Palace was too big and deep.The shadows of the messy branches outside cast on the window paper, like the ghost hand protruding from the ground.

She was suspicious in her heart, but she didn't want to show it because of her face. She only reprimanded the palace servants not to gossip, and ordered them to quietly go to a remote corner to burn some paper money, and finally dragged her exhausted body to rest.

It's just that the ghosts she saw in the dormitory last night were too frightening, she didn't dare to go to sleep after all, so she could only ask someone to clean up the side hall to stay temporarily.

The news had already reached Kunning Palace within one night.

Empress Yu listened to the eunuch's vivid description, the breath she had been holding in her heart finally dissipated, and she nodded in satisfaction: "It's a good job, you will go to Aunt Hua to receive the reward later."

The eunuch was short in stature, with a slightly hunchbacked back, and was as nimble as a monkey when he walked.Before entering the palace, she was raised by a juggling troupe, and she was very good at playing tricks.When I was discussing life outside, I learned the skill of sorting out the remains of the dead.Empress Yu kept him just in case, but unexpectedly it just came in handy.

After she knew that the governor of Dongchang was Yin Chengyu's person, she specially greeted Dongchang, and replaced all the guards patrolling around Jingren Palace with her own hands, and she did things without anyone noticing.

Ning Mei thought for a moment, and then ordered: "Don't stop for a few days, but you don't have to take the risk of showing up like last night. She is a smart person, and it is easy to be spotted if she shows up too often. Just make some movements Come, let her guess for herself."

Sometimes scaring yourself is often the scariest thing.

When Concubine Wen Gui couldn't bear the fright, this good show could officially begin.

After the eunuch took the order to retreat.Empress Yu ordered someone to send a message to Ciqing Palace.

The palace man who delivered the letter was the one Yin Chengyu picked out from the East Factory to be used by Empress Yu. On the way to Ciqing Palace, he met Xue Shu and was cut off from his errand.

Xue Shu returned to Beijing in the first two days after Yin Chengyu, and dismissed Emperor Longfeng under the pretense of an old fairy who went to Yunyou and didn't know when he would return. I got empty and came to Ciqing Palace.

It was still early when we came here, but Xue Shu didn't deliberately avoid people.

Now the East Factory has almost completely fallen under his control, and the West Factory has Wei Xihe in charge.There are often overlaps between the east and west factories and Jinyiwei, and many of the commanders in Jinyiwei are familiar faces from the previous life.After spending some thought, he also took part of Jinyiwei's troops into his pocket.

Now the Jinyiwei guards in important places such as Ciqing Palace and Kunning Palace are all arranged by themselves, so Xue Shu is not as sneaky as before, and entered the Hongren Palace in a fair and honest manner.

The two haven't seen each other for several days. Although there are spies delivering news, it is always different from meeting.

As soon as Xue Shu saw someone, his eyeballs could not move, and he looked at him greedily.

Yin Chengyu was crouching at his desk reviewing the invitation papers sent by officials from all over the country, and he didn't move when he saw him coming in. Instead, he pointed to a chair in front of the desk and said casually, "Sit down and wait for Gu to finish the paperwork."

Most of these invitations were sent by local officials in order to communicate with the emperor and show their presence. Most of them have no real content, are lengthy and boring.Emperor Longfeng didn't even bother to look at it, so he approved it on his behalf.After the approval is completed, it will be sent to Qianqing Palace, and Emperor Longfeng will send it to the place after going through it.

He approved for half an afternoon, and he has seen almost the same.

Xue Shu didn't sit down, walked around the desk and walked behind him, and saw that his upper body was very upright, but the feet hidden under the wide table desk had taken off their shoes and socks, and they were stepping on the belly of the cub .

This cub has been raised in the Ciqing Palace for three months, and it has been raised to be plump and firm, but it has lost the fierce prestige of its parents. Whether it is its size or its lazy temperament, it is a bit like a dog, not the slightest bit The majesty of the king of the mountain.

I don't know how it slipped into the Hongren Hall. Right now, it is slumped under the table, sleeping soundly with its pale yellow belly turned over. Occasionally, when those snow-white feet step on its belly, it will stretch out its four claws and move. For a while, go back to sleep.

Xue Shu's eyes fixed on those snowy feet for a while, but he still couldn't hold back and said, "This little beast is playing around outside, and I don't know if it's clean, so I asked someone to take it out and wash it for a while. Wash it and send it to His Highness."

"The servants in the palace said that they just washed it yesterday, and it was very clean." Yin Chengyu gave him a light sideways glance, and his feet stepped on the soft belly again.The sleepy tiger cub was awakened by stepping on it, hugged the foot with its two front paws in a tantrum, bit it moderately, and made a low sound from its throat.

He is well aware of Xue Shu's temperament, this person probably punctured the paper of the window now, rather like smashing a can, and he doesn't hide his jealousy at all, and he has to compete with a young tiger.

Xue Shu licked his back molars unhappily, dragged the low stool beside him and sat down beside him, hugged his legs and put them on his knees: "Then give your Highness a pinch."

Yin Chengyu stepped on him with a smile: "Nonsense."

It's just that the tone doesn't mean to reprimand, and it doesn't have any deterrent effect.

Xue Shu really pinched his legs, taking care of everything from the thighs to the soles of the feet, which was very appropriate.

"Gu didn't know that you still had this skill before, but it was a waste of many years." Yin Chengyu threw the unfinished booklet back on the table, leaned back in the armchair, and stepped on him from time to time with his toe.

"I'll make it up later." Knowing that he was worthy of the previous life, Xue Shu replied while circling the soles of his feet with his fingertips.

His toes curled up timidly, and Yin Chengyu wanted to retract his feet, but he firmly grasped his ankles.The two looked at each other for a moment, and he kicked each other lightly: "Not today, let's talk about business."

Seeing what he said, Xue Shu had no choice but to stop unwillingly and talk about the Jingren Palace.

"The Empress selected that eunuch as a useful person. Concubine Wen Gui was quite frightened last night. I heard that the main hall was closed and went to the side hall."

It is said that ghosts are afraid of evil people, and people like Concubine Wen Gui can't frighten her by making small troubles.

Yin Chengyu said: "If it goes well, in a few days, she should go to the father's place. At that time, you have to communicate with Master Ziyuan to get rid of this disaster as soon as possible." Speaking of these things, he was a little bit I squeezed my heart tiredly: "There is also the third prince, you send someone to contact Wuzhu secretly."

Due to Dan Xi Dongshou's accident, Yin Chengjing got married in a hurry in February. Princess Yao and side concubine Princess Wuzhu entered the mansion on the same day, and then moved into the third prince's mansion in Xiaoyongfang.

Before Xue Shu went to Huguang, he deliberately let people spread rumors that the third prince was inhumane. Yin Chengjing was probably really driven into a hurry, and he didn't know what tricks he used. It was less than a month after they got married, and the news of Yao's pregnancy came out .

Although the fetus is not yet seated, it is not appropriate to publicize it with great fanfare, but the rewards from the concubine De in the palace were sent to the third prince's residence, and even two beauties were given later, which can be regarded as confirming the rumors that Yao is pregnant.

The previous inhumane rumors are self-defeating.

If not, I'm afraid Yin Chengjing and Concubine De would not be able to get involved in Concubine Rong's affairs.

Thinking of these dirty things, Yin Chengyu inevitably showed a little disgust.He is really tired of these intrigues and fights, but these people always don't cry when they don't see the coffin, and they will never learn to keep their own place.

Seeing the hostility in his eyebrows and eyes, Xue Shu said, "Your Highness doesn't want to care about these things, just leave it to the minister."

Thinking of Concubine Rong, who was alive and dead in Yongxi Palace, Yin Chengyu heaved a long sigh: "The queen mother at the other end of the harem will make arrangements, and you should pay more attention to it, and always give justice to the elder brother, mother and son."

Concubine Wen Gui held on for three days, but she couldn't hold it anymore.

After seeing the "ghost" on the first night, she was not allowed to turn off the lights at night, and Jingren Palace was full of candles.In the dormitory cleaned up in the side hall, four court ladies and four women took turns to watch the night, and they were not allowed to close their eyes for a moment.

But such a comprehensive defense still failed.

The palace lady was clearly guarding the couch, but Concubine Wen Gui always heard someone crying in her ear in a trance, and there were even male or female voices talking in her ear!

When she often woke up from her sleep, the lady-in-law who was watching the night did not hear anything.

Concubine Wen Gui could only try not to sleep.But in the long night, there is always something to do to pass the time.She asked someone to take an embroidery frame to embroider, and while she was embroidering, blood dripped from the beams of the house, staining the snow-white embroidered cloth red.

Not to mention that when the wind blows at night, the branches outside are reflected on the window paper, dancing in the wind, making it even more ghostly.

Concubine Wen Gui didn't sleep for three nights, and she only dared to take a nap during the day, and her whole body quickly became haggard.

Jingren Palace was even more terrified. Although the burning of paper money was clearly prohibited, the smell of paper money burning could always be smelled around the palace.

There were even a few timid palace servants who fell ill in fright and had to ask for leave.

Even though Concubine Wen Gui refused to believe in evil any more, she felt guilty. Under the persuasion of the female officer close to her, she went to Emperor Longfeng for help after freshening up.

She was originally a bright and plump beauty, but after being frightened, she became much thinner and haggard, and she deliberately changed into plain clothes and put on more powder, making her look even weaker and more pitiful.

Emperor Longfeng saw her bright and charming appearance a lot, but rarely saw her so delicate.After hearing her cry again, she immediately felt distressed and left her in the Qianqing Palace.

In the emperor's palace, there are very few concubines staying overnight.This is enough to prove the preference of Emperor Longfeng.

After Emperor Longfeng finished speaking, seeing Concubine Wen Gui huddled in his arms with pear blossoms in the rain, he felt distressed and a little annoyed.Immediately, the commander Gong Hongfei was announced, and he ordered: "You take someone to search the Jingren Palace yourself, and see if someone is pretending to be a ghost to threaten the noble concubine."

He comforted the woman in his arms, and said: "With me here, forgive those pretending Xiaoxiao who dare not disturb Mi'er again."

Concubine Wen Gui frowned, and tried delicately and weakly: "But what if there are really ghosts..."

Emperor Longfeng said casually: "If it's really evil, it's easier to deal with it, just ask Master Ziyuan to do a ritual ceremony."

Hearing him mention Master Zi Yuan with such certainty, Concubine Wen Gui's eyebrows twitched, and she felt a little uneasy.

That real Ziyuan wears a pair of pants with the crown prince!

Instead, I thought about the fact that the prince returned to the palace and stayed in Yongxi Palace for less than a quarter of an hour. The two of them will not be able to say how to tear it apart in the future. .

Only then did Concubine Wen feel relieved.

After serving Emperor Longfeng with all her heart and soul that night, she smelled the mild fragrance of Anshenxiang and fell into a peaceful dream.

This time she did not have any more nightmares, she just slept until midnight, and Emperor Longfeng beside him suddenly waved his limbs and struggled.Concubine Wen Gui was caught off guard by an arm hitting her chest, and she woke up suddenly.

She sat up in the dark, and saw Emperor Longfeng struggling with his eyes closed, as if he was fighting with someone.The old face was distorted and ferocious, and there was a ho-ho sound from his throat.

She was startled, and hurriedly called the imperial physician.

After a period of chaos, the imperial physician arrived in a hurry, but he did not dare to wake him up hastily, but the powerful eunuch held down Emperor Longfeng's limbs and gave him acupuncture.

After tossing for a quarter of an hour, Emperor Longfeng finally broke free from the nightmare, his face was very gray, and he was a little dazed: "What's wrong with me?"

In just a few words, he gasped three times.

The familiar feeling of weakness made Emperor Longfeng feel terrified, he struggled to sit up, but pressed his chest painfully.

When the imperial doctor saw his expression, his expression changed drastically, he hurriedly helped him to lie down, and after another round of acupuncture, he explained to Emperor Longfeng who was so weak that he couldn't make a sound: "Your Majesty, this is a dream." I was frightened in the middle of the day and caused a heart attack, so don't let your emotions go up and down again, you need to rest well, otherwise you may be in danger of apoplexy."

Emperor Longfeng opened his eyes wide, and said with some slurred words: "I'm fine during the daytime!"

Since the First Prince had been by his side for a month, his illness has completely recovered.Afterwards, he took the elixir improved by Immortal Ziyuan, and he regained his previous vigor, and he hadn't been so weak for a long time.

Emperor Longfeng was pondering in his mind, suddenly thought of something, and suddenly stared at Concubine Wen Gui who was squeezed to the outside.

It must be her!It's her who hurt herself!

Emperor Longfeng's mood was about to become unstable again. Under the reminder of the imperial physician's non-stop smooth words, he tried to take a few deep breaths to calm his mind, and then said weakly: "Concubine Wen Gui, go out! Then, go and tell the real Ziyuan to come! Hurry up!" !"
