The slaves were just transferred here and were frightened after hearing this, so they came here specially to burn some paper money for the little princess. We hope that the little princess will receive our sincerity and not come to us."
"That's total nonsense!" Concubine Yun said angrily, "How can there be such a thing as a ghost in this world? It's all alarmist talk!"
"No, I have seen several palace maids working here who were frightened and went crazy. They all said they saw the little princess."
Concubine Yun felt that all the hairs on her body were standing on end, but she still managed to calm down and scolded: "Can you believe what a madman says? Are you new to the palace? Don't you know that lighting a fire privately in the palace is against the palace rules?
"
Several little palace maids hurriedly knelt down and begged for mercy: "My Majesty, please forgive me! My Majesty, please forgive me!"
Concubine Yun Guifei was already in a state of confusion and had no intention of punishing them, so she waved her hand and said, "Clean this place and disperse them all!"
The maids quickly packed up the copper basins and paper money and left quickly.
Concubine Yun Gui was still standing there, looking towards the pond, with a layer of cold sweat on her forehead. Is today the death anniversary of the little princess?
In retrospect, the little princess did die in May. Wouldn't it be true that her ghost would come out in these days as the palace maids said?
No, it's impossible. How could such a ridiculous thing happen in this world? Those palace officials must have made up some lies to deceive those timid little girls!
Concubine Yun Gui comforted herself like this, and then left the place quickly.
Not long after she left, someone holding a lantern came out from behind the rockery not far away. It was Ye Fuxun, and there were several people standing beside her, including the few maids who were burning paper by the pond just now.
"You did a good job," Ye Fuxun said with a smile, and then told Qingyu: "Give me the reward."
"Thank you so much, Princess Six!" The little maids each took a heavy bag of gold ingots and left happily.
Qingyu smiled and said, "Princess, just now my servant turned pale with fright when she saw Concubine Yun. It seems that she believed the ghost story."
Ye Fuxun nodded and said: "As the saying goes, if you don't do anything bad at ordinary times, you won't be afraid of ghosts knocking on the door in the middle of the night. Concubine Yun has killed so many lives, how can you not be afraid?
We can't let her have a good life in the next period of time."
After Concubine Yun returned, the more she thought about it, the more frightened she became. Even though the lights in the palace were brightly lit, as bright as day, and there were palace guards guarding her, she still felt that everything was cold and cold.
It's okay if others don't talk about this kind of thing, but once someone mentions it in their ears, they can't help but pay special attention to it.
Concubine Yun Guifei didn't feel troubled before, but after that night, she had nightmares every night and had no peace every day for the next few days.
I could only sleep for a while during the day, and whenever I closed my eyes at night, I would see scenes from nightmares. I couldn't fall asleep at all, and I became increasingly haggard.
Concubine Yun did not come to Qifeng Palace to pay her respects for several days, so she asked Aunt Zhong: "Has something happened to Concubine Yun? Why haven't you seen anyone these days?"
Aunt Zhong replied: "I heard that Concubine Yun Gui has been ill these past few days and has been afraid to go out."
Aunt Zhong continued: "I heard that I was frightened. It was said that Qingyun Palace was haunted recently, which made people panic. Concubine Yun Guifei was frightened by the ghost and fell ill."
"Haunted?" The queen was surprised and felt ridiculous at the same time. "It's ridiculous. Where do ghosts come from in this world? I'm afraid it's because people have ghosts in their hearts, right?"
Aunt Zhong shook her head and said, "My slaves also think it's ridiculous, but the palace people spread it vividly.
It is said that at night, the female ghost wearing white clothes and disheveled hair will come out and rush to Concubine Yun Gui's bedroom, and many palace servants who serve Concubine Yun have seen it."
"Is there such a strange thing?" The queen squinted her eyes, feeling that something was fishy, "Then I should go take a look."
When the queen came to Qingyun Palace, Concubine Yun's residence, several concubines had just finished visiting and were about to leave.
"How is Concubine Yun's condition?" the queen asked.
Concubine Jing sighed and said, "It's not very good. I look at you and you are much more haggard than the past few days. It seems that you are really ill."
Concubine Yuan nodded and agreed: "Yes, when I just entered, I and others talked to her, but she didn't pay attention. When they touched her, she jumped away like crazy, with a look of horror on her face, and she was still chanting
What, it shocked me."
"Really? Is it so serious?" The Queen couldn't help but be curious, "Then I want to go in and see her."
"The queen must be mentally prepared. The current Concubine Yun is completely different from before. If she is accidentally irritated, she will hurt others."
Concubine Yuan reminded her kindly, and when she mentioned Concubine Yun, there was a look of horror on her face.
When the queen came to the bedroom, she immediately smelled a strong fragrance. The air was filled with white mist, like clouds. This kind of fragrance was very special and she had never smelled it before.
"Mother Zhong, can you smell what this fragrance is?"
Grandma Zhong usually likes to study all kinds of incense, so she knows a lot about this kind of thing.
She smelled it for a while before replying: "This seems to be the golden Zen incense, which was introduced from the barbarian lands in the south. It is said to have the effect of exorcising ghosts and avoiding evil spirits. But the slave seems to smell other incense mixed in it.
"
The queen frowned and walked to the inner room.
I saw a group of maids waiting in front of the bed. Concubine Yun Gui lay huddled on the bed, wrapping herself in a thick quilt. She was obviously covered in sweat, but she was still shivering.
The queen saw that she was wearing a white pajamas that was loose on her body, her hair was disheveled, her face was as pale as paper, and there were two thick dark circles hanging on her face. She was not as bright as before.
This man didn't look like a human or a ghost. Anyone who looked at him would feel panicked. It seemed that he was probably out of his mind.
"Concubine Yun, do you know who I am?"
Concubine Yun moved her hair away from her eyes and looked at the queen with wide eyes. It took her a while to recognize her.
She threw away the quilt, rushed towards the edge of the bed, and said excitedly: "Queen, you are the queen, she, she came to me, she came to me for revenge..."
The queen guessed who the "she" in her mouth was, and immediately sent all the maids away. Then she said to Concubine Yun: "You are confused. She is already dead. How can she come back to seek revenge on you?"
"It's true, I saw her, it was her, it was her, she was wearing white clothes, her hair was disheveled, her face and appearance were exactly the same as they were thirteen years ago. She said she was coming back to demand her life. She wanted to
Take me to hell..."
Concubine Yun was crying and howling, and her speech was a little unclear. The queen only heard a rough idea, but she already understood what she meant.
"Concubine Yun Gui, calm down! Listen to me," the queen straightened Concubine Yun's face, trying to calm her down.
"Song Yanshu is dead. It is impossible for a dead person to come back. It is impossible for her to come back to seek revenge on you.
