Cong Lu thought for a long time, then suddenly realized, and said disappointedly: "Brother Huang, it turns out that you are actually a disciple, and you won't even let off male mermaids."

Wen Qi couldn't help laughing, and whispered in Cong Ji's ear: "Your Majesty, the princess also thinks you are a disciple."

Cong Ji said helplessly: "Luzhuer, don't talk nonsense."

Cong Lu said aggrievedly: "I didn't talk nonsense."

"Forget it, I don't care about you." Cong Ji turned to ask, "Does the white-clothed female ghost you speak of look like the white-clothed female ghost I saw in Yong'an Palace last time?"

Cong Lu nodded and said, "That's her."

Cong Ji asked again: "When and where did you meet her?"

Cong Lu replied: "Not long ago, she was outside Bailu Hall."

Cong Ji asked three times: "Can the female ghost in white be with Concubine Zhao?"

Cong Lu shook her head and said, "I only saw the female ghost in white, but not Concubine Zhao."

Cong Ji became suspicious: the female ghost in white that Lu Zhuer said was Fang Yun, she was the personal maid of Concubine Zhao. Why is it outside Bailu Hall?If it wasn't for Cong Lu's hysteria, or a misreading, then Fang Yun must be weird.But the previous investigation on Fang Yun did not find any clues.Although disrespectful to Concubine Zhao, since Lu Zhuer believes that Fang Yun is the female ghost in white, she has to investigate again.

He called Qin Xiao and said loudly, "Go to Yu Luoxuan immediately and bring Fang Yun here."

Wen Qi was at a loss, and only felt that judging from Cong Lu's words, she seemed to be mentally impaired. Could this be related to her disfigurement?

He was thinking about it, when he heard Cong Ji say: "I will take you back to Danquan Hall."

Obviously, Cong Ji didn't want him to know about this matter, or did he simply think that this matter had nothing to do with him?

He said obediently: "Please trouble Your Majesty."

As soon as Cong Ji carried him to the Danquan Hall, he rubbed his hair and said, "I'll see you later."

It took only half a stick of incense after Cong Ji left, and the lunch was delivered.

Originally Cong Ji wanted to have lunch with him, if Cong Lu hadn't appeared.

He suddenly felt alone, and even this lunch was overshadowed.

He picked up the bamboo chopsticks, put a piece of bean curd skin yellow croaker roll into his mouth, and said in his heart: I hope everything goes well for Cong Ji, and I can find out the real body of the white-clothed female ghost.

The bean curd skin is crispy, and the yellow croaker is soft and tender, and contains delicious fish juice, which is very suitable for his taste. He ate up a plate of bean curd skin yellow croaker rolls before eating boiled shrimp.

As soon as a boiled prawn was in his mouth, he suddenly remembered that Cong Ji had called him "Little Drunken Fish". He snorted dissatisfiedly, and went to eat sea melon seeds with scallion oil.

After eating most of the sea melon seeds in scallion oil, he fixed his gaze on the bamboo chopsticks.

Cong Ji is indeed not a person who is extravagant and wasteful, otherwise he would not use bamboo chopsticks like him, instead of jade chopsticks, ivory chopsticks, gold chopsticks...

On that side, Qin Xiao did not find Fang Yun, and Cong Ji led people to send Cong Lu back to Bailu Palace, and immediately went to Yu Luoxuan in person.

Concubine Zhao had just returned to Yu Luoxuan from Yong'an Palace, lit sandalwood, and was about to chant sutras when she suddenly heard a movement, looked up and saw Cong Ji, stood up and greeted her, "May your Majesty be blessed with Jin'an."

Cong Ji helped Concubine Zhao up, and asked bluntly, "Where is Fang Yun?"

Concubine Zhao was stunned: "May I ask why Your Majesty is looking for Fang Yun?"

Cong Ji said softly: "It's not convenient for me to answer, the concubine don't need to ask too many questions, the concubine only needs to tell me where Fang Yun is."

Concubine Zhao said to the maid beside her, "Hong Yu, go and call Fang Yun."

A moment later, Hong Yu reported, "Sister Yun is gone."

Concubine Zhao was taken aback: "Have you searched all over this Yu Luoxuan?"

Hong Yu said anxiously: "I searched all over, but I couldn't find Sister Yun."

Zhao Taifei was full of doubts and said: "At this time in the past, Fang Yun would not have come out of Yuluoxuan. Could it be that something happened?"

Cong Ji observed Concubine Zhao carefully, and asked, "Does Fang Yun have good friends in the palace?"

Concubine Zhao replied: "Fang Yun is taciturn and only makes friends with Hong Yu."

Cong Ji looked at Hong Yu: "Where is Fang Yun's bedroom?"

Hong Yu had heard about Cong Ji's atrocities, she was still young and had never seen Tian Yan, she tremblingly said: "Your Majesty will lead the way."

As soon as he arrived at Fang Yun's bedroom, Cong Ji ordered Qin Xiao to search the bedroom, but unfortunately, nothing was found.

Cong Ji said slowly, "Do you know that Fang Yun committed a serious crime?"

——In fact, he still doesn't know why Cong Lu regards Fang Yun as a female ghost in white clothes, and why Fang Yun is outside the Bailu Hall, but Fang Yun's disappearance is too strange, obviously he must have committed a crime, so he intends to scare her Hong Yu, who is on good terms with Fang Yun, will try to get useful clues from her mouth.

Hong Yu was so frightened that she knelt down on the ground with a "plop", and cried, "I don't know."

"Qin Xiao, I will leave this rainbow rain to you." Cong Ji walked out of Yu Luo Xuan and went to Bai Lu Hall.

Cong Lu rushed to Cong Ji and asked, "Brother Huang, have you found the female ghost in white?"

Cong Ji said in relief: "I haven't found it yet, don't worry."

He has ordered to seal the gates of the four palaces, found Fang Yun's portrait from the list of maids, ordered the painter to draw a few more pictures, and distributed them to the guards, ordering them to search in the palace.

Just in case, he also sent more people out of the palace to search, and led them to Fang Yun's mother's house, and kept an eye on Yu Luoxuan.

Since Fang Yun appeared outside Bailu Palace less than half an hour ago, she is probably still hiding in the palace.

The strange thing is that Fang Yun used to work in Yuluoxuan well, so why did she go outside Bailu Hall?

Why did she disappear again?Is there a ghost in my heart, or is there something hidden?

If it's the former, as long as she doesn't go outside Bailu Hall, or is not discovered by Luzhu'er, she will have more time to plan her way out, why bother?

If the latter, what is the hidden secret?

Cong Ji couldn't figure it out, put away his thoughts, looked at Cong Lu, and asked, "When and where did you first see that white-clothed female ghost?"

Cong Lu was thinking hard, suddenly her head was about to split, and her body was on the verge of falling.

Cong Ji had sharp eyes and quick hands, and supported Cong Lu. After all, he felt sorry for Cong Lu, and hurriedly hugged Cong Lu to the bed, let Cong Lu lie down, and said softly: "Lu Zhuer, don't think about it anymore."

After saying that, he asked the maid on the side to pass on the message to Doctor Liu.

"Brother..." Cong Lu's eyes filled with tears from the pain, her complexion was pale, and she bit her lips tightly.

After a long time, she said vaguely: "That year, I should be...three or four years old, she...she accompanied me...to catch...to catch dragonflies..."

Cong Ji didn't ask, but said: "Think about it tomorrow."

Not long after, Imperial Physician Liu rushed over, examined Cong Lu's pulse, and prescribed a decoction to soothe the nerves.

Cong Ji had no time to think about other things, so he sat on the side of the bed, accompanied Cong Lu, waited for Cong Lu to drink the decoction, and put Cong Lu to sleep, before asking Imperial Physician Liu: "What's the princess's situation now?"

"If the old minister's expectations are not bad..." Imperial Physician Liu paused, "The princess will recover soon."

Luzhu'er remembered that she saw the female ghost in white clothes when she was three or four years old, is this a sign of getting better?

"It should be that Liu Aiqing's treatment of the princess has taken effect in the past few years." Cong Ji glanced at Cong Lu's face, and asked nervously, "Will the princess's appearance be restored?"

Imperial Physician Liu respectfully said: "The old minister can't guarantee it, but the old minister will definitely do his best."

"Trouble Liu Aiqing, let Liu Aiqing step down first." Cong Ji didn't leave. After a while, thinking about Cong Lu's past of starving and being forced to marry a rascal with him, he whispered guiltily, "It's all my fault, I'm too incompetent, I can't even protect my only sister."

A moment later, he returned to the Ideological and Political Hall and continued to review the memorial.

After a cup of tea, Qin Xiao came to report: "Then Hong Yudao Fang Yun has a son."

Cong Ji investigated Fang Yun last time and did not find out that Fang Yun had a son. Fang Yun was only [-] years old when she entered the palace. It is absolutely impossible that she was pregnant and gave birth before entering the palace. Fornicating with others, so that the bead tire is secretly knotted.

He put down the ink brush and asked, "How old is that son, and where is he now?"

Qin Xiao reported: "Hong Yu only heard Fang Yun mention it once, and at that time Fang Yun claimed that she was talking nonsense."

Fang Yun probably slipped his tongue, not gibberish.

Cong Ji ordered: "You'd better check it out."

Qin Xiao took the order to leave, and Cong Ji suddenly remembered something: Before his mother was alive, Concubine Zhao had a good relationship with her mother, and they often communicated with each other.

Presumably, Fang Yun was treated by Luzhu'er as a white-clothed female ghost when she followed Concubine Zhao to pay her respects to her mother.

On that day, Fang Yun must have been wearing white clothes, but there were many women in white clothes in the palace, why did Lu Zhu'er only regard Fang Yun as a white-clothed female ghost?

An hour later, Qin Xiao's deputy, Du Mingda, reported to him: "Your Majesty, I have searched everywhere in the palace but have not found Fang Yun."

Cong Ji was not surprised: "Even if you dig three feet into the ground, you have to find Fang Yun, so go ahead."

Until the middle of the night, there was no progress in this matter, Fang Yun seemed to have evaporated from the world, no one was alive or dead.

Cong Ji left the Sizheng Hall and went to the Danquan Hall.

He was upset at first, but when he saw Wen Qi who was looking at him eagerly, he immediately calmed down.

Wen Qi had changed his feet, put on his clothes, and was staggering towards Cong Ji.

Cong Ji tipped her toes, came to Wen Qi, and said worriedly: "Be careful of falling."

However, Wen Qi said: "Your Majesty, am I very powerful? I couldn't even walk a step yesterday, but I can barely walk today."

Not long after lunch, he kept trying to walk, and fell down countless times. Since the ground was covered with thick woven leather, even if he fell, it didn't hurt much.

In his last life, he also tried to walk, but he felt weak and had difficulty walking, so he had to give up in the end.

For him, this life is much easier than the last one.

He met Cong Ji's eyes, and seeing Cong Ji's distressed eyes, he comforted him, "I'm fine, Your Majesty don't need to worry about me."

Even if he is staggering, he is very happy to be able to walk on his own.

Cong Ji stared at Wen Qi's curved eyes, and praised: "You are very powerful."

"I also feel that I am very powerful." Wen Qi said with concern again, "Has Your Majesty found the female ghost in white?"

"I guess I can't find her in eight out of ten, she must have committed something..." Cong Ji said this, and a flash of light flashed in his mind, "She must have sensed that Lu Zhu'er might think of her, so she did it." Deliberately standing outside the Bailu Palace to test Lu Zhuer. She was lucky and sure that Lu Zhuer really thought of her, so she had to hide."
