"What the hell? I don't believe that there are ghosts and gods in this world. If there are indeed ghosts and gods in charge of the laws of the world, and if there are grudges and vengeances, what else do the court officials do?"

"Your Majesty, there is a lot of commotion in the concubine's courtyard. Everyone has seen it. You can't completely disbelieve it."

After listening to Gu Changting's words, Liao became even more worried. Gu Changting looked at Xin Nian: "What did you say?"

Xin Nian glanced at Concubine Liao and said softly: "I feel that I should ask Concubine Liao for her opinion on this matter to see if it is a ritual..."

"What kind of religious ceremony are you doing? When word of it spreads, it makes the city full of trouble. Tell me, it doesn't matter whether there is a ghost or not? I have never done anything wrong, why am I still afraid of her? You don't need to be alarmist here, and the prince doesn't need to care either.

, everyone goes back and does whatever they have to do. After a few days, no matter what kind of monster it is, it will stop after seeing that there is no more trouble."

Xin Nian's face hardened, and he lowered his head and said, "The concubine is right."

Gu Changting looked at Concubine Liao and suddenly smiled and said: "It's my mother after all. She has experienced many things and she can remain calm and not be threatened by these monsters. Speaking of which, I haven't seen ghosts yet, so I can't say that I have touched my mother this time."

The light has also given my son a lot of experience. I will stay here tonight to see what this kid looks like."

Concubine Liao's heart skipped a beat. Before anyone else could speak, she pretended to be angry and said: "You haven't been at home for the past few days and you just came back today. What are you doing here in vain? Go back to your wife's room. That's tomorrow.

On the first day of March, ethnic studies will also start, so you should also take a look at the homework of some children. I don't need you to worry about it."

Gu Changting refused, but still said with a smile: "Mom, just let your son broaden his horizons. As for clan studies, except for Liu Zai who is new, their brothers are all familiar with it. What's more, Liu Zai is also led by Brother Feng, so there is no need

worry."

Xin Nian also spoke up and said: "How can the prince be so relieved when something like this happens? For the sake of his filial piety, the concubine will let him watch here tonight. Sure enough, there is something evil, maybe

It's because the prince's yang energy is strong, and since he was scared away, peace may be restored in the courtyard."

Ms. Liao wanted to go against her, but after thinking about it, she couldn't find fault with her words, so she could only huff and said: "It may not be that easy to scare her away, but my cousin is well-informed and has many friends in the world.

, maybe you can see through the mystery and break this evil way, wouldn't it be good?"

At this point, Mrs. Liao had no choice. If she refused blindly again, she would really arouse her son's suspicion. She had no choice but to agree, and secretly said angrily in her heart: It's been this evil for nearly twenty years, and you suddenly think of causing trouble. You're just trying to be mysterious.

Forget it, if you dare to say bad things in front of Changting, I will find a Taoist monk and make your soul fly away, and you will never be reincarnated.

The matter was settled. Concubine Liao felt unhappy, so she leaned back on the couch and said calmly: "If the weather is bad, I won't keep you here anymore. Let's all go back. It's nothing serious, so you don't need to be so surprised."

, which made Changting worried about me and disturbed my peace."

Xin Nian hurriedly stood up and said, "It's my fault, please forgive me."

After her initiative, Mrs. Liao and Aunt Qiu, Aunt Gu and others also stood up to apologize. The corner of Mrs. Liao's mouth twitched, and she felt as if her fist was hitting cotton. It was light and uncomfortable, so she waved her hand, and Mrs. Liao understood, so she took her with her.

Then the three aunts turned and left.

As soon as I went out, I felt a bright light flash before my eyes, and then there was a rumble of thunder from the sky. Aunt Gu hurriedly said: "It has been cloudy for two days, and finally the rain is going to start, Amitabha."

Xin Nian smiled and said: "Yes, it's raining now. I really agree with what I said. Spring rain is as precious as oil. Farmers just took advantage of this opportunity to plant the seeds."

Aunt Gu nodded and said, "I hope the weather will be smooth this year and it will be a good harvest year."

As soon as she finished speaking, Aunt Qiu laughed and said, "Hey! Aunt Xin knows so much. Is it possible that you have also dealt with Mud Legs?"

"What are you talking about? This just shows that Sister Xin is well-informed, so you have to arrange for her to have interacted with Mudleg..."

Aunt Gu was angry. Before she could finish speaking, Xin Nian held her hand to stop her. She smiled sweetly and said: "Sister Qiu is right. When I was a child, I actually saw farmers farming in the countryside. In fact, this is nothing.

, when it comes to dealing with mud-legged people, there are more princes. In which year are you not allowed to go up to Zhuangzi to see the harvest? Even the emperor has a piece of land in the palace, and he has to work in the fields himself every year. Sister Qiu, you call him mud...

…“

"What nonsense are you talking about? You...you don't want to slander me and slander me."

Aunt Qiu interrupted Xin Nian with a scream, but she sneered: "Who asked you to rush over and bring the excuse? Sister Qiu, listen to my advice, you need to be careful in your words and deeds in the future..."

"That's enough." Mrs. Liao frowned: "Sister Xin, there is no need to be so unreasonable, otherwise I would have said that you compared the emperor to those farmers, which is even more disrespectful."

"Farming is the foundation of the country, why am I disrespectful?"

Xin Nian refused to give in, and Ms. Liao was left speechless by her rebuke. She was racking her brains to figure out how to get down the steps when she suddenly saw her servants setting up a pavilion under the big tree in the courtyard. She immediately changed the topic and asked with a smile.

He said: "It looks like spring is coming, so we have to put up the tent again?"

"Yes, grandma, the weather is getting warmer now, and the scenery in the yard is beautiful. The princess likes to drink tea under the pergola, look at the flowers or listen to the rain, and enjoy the moon at night."

Mrs. Liao hurriedly said: "Even so, you must be careful of catching a cold. The concubine is old. If she gets cold, it is not for fun."

The servants agreed repeatedly, and while they were busy, they suddenly heard an exclamation, and then saw that a corner of the half-built pergola suddenly collapsed.

Mrs. Liao hurriedly asked what happened. After a while, a woman came over and reported: "It's because the two pieces of wood used to build the pergola were broken. They have been left in the warehouse for a few months. They look good from the outside, but who would have thought that there were insects inside?"

The ants are gone."

"It is common for insects and ants to eat hollow wood. Fortunately, it was broken now. Otherwise, the pergola was erected and it was standing on its own. Once the dowager queen came in to enjoy the cool air, it would be extremely dangerous if it was broken just then.

"

Xin Nian suddenly interrupted, and the mother-in-law nodded repeatedly: "Who says it's not the case? That's why everyone is really afraid."

Xin Nian smiled and said: "Is there anything special about this thing? I am not very knowledgeable, so I don't know. I just thought, if the wood is useless, why not replace it with an iron rod? Let alone insects and ants, it is like a tiger and a wolf.

When I got into the warehouse, I bit it hard. Not only did I keep biting it, but I also broke my teeth."

What he said made everyone laugh. Aunt Gu stood beside her and joked: "Don't say this is the Prince's Mansion in Beijing. Tiger and wolf can't get in, so they just come in. How can tiger and wolf be so stupid? They don't pick food but bite iron rods."

?”

As he finished speaking, someone behind him laughed and said, "If you haven't seen it, don't think it doesn't exist in the world. There is a kind of black and white bear in the middle of Sichuan. The locals call them iron-eating beasts."
