"I have no ability to ask for your life. What you saw was a person. Someone must be pretending to be a ghost to scare you and want you to show off your flaws. Do you understand?"
Concubine Yun Gui was stunned and seemed to be confused: "Is she a human? Not a ghost? But, I clearly saw her floating in from the outside. She doesn't walk on her feet. She..."
"That's a pretender!" the queen continued to persuade, "There are no ghosts in this world. If there were, she would have been here long ago. How could she wait more than ten years before coming again?
If you think about it carefully, why did you wait until Yu Siling reopened the old case before coming out?
This was clearly caused by Yu Siling. The only witness is dead and the physical evidence is long gone. She can only pretend to be a ghost and use this method to lure you into yourself. You can't fall into her trap.
.”
After hearing the queen's words, Concubine Yun suddenly woke up from a dream and let out a big breath.
Sitting on the bed, he said feebly: "Yes, you are right, you are right, it was Yu Siling's fault. How did I fall into her trap?"
She didn't know why, but every time she subconsciously told herself that Song Yanshu would never come back for revenge, but when she saw the female ghost in white, all the nightmare scenes seemed to appear before her eyes, making her terrified and unable to control herself.
Seeing that she had regained consciousness, the queen said in a warning tone: "If you continue to be crazy, you will lure the emperor here, and if you say something you shouldn't say in front of him, you and I will both die!"
"That's right, that's right." Concubine Yun Guifei nodded repeatedly, feeling terrified in her heart. Yu Siling was indeed very capable, and he actually fooled her around!
The queen thought for a moment and said: "Since she made such a big fuss, we can't waste it. We might as well take advantage of it and cooperate with her in a play."
Concubine Yun Gui looked at her: "What do you want to do, the Queen?"
The queen said: "Yu Siling just wants to attract the emperor, so we will comply with her wishes and invite the emperor to Qingyun Palace, and then come to catch turtles in a jar, catch the ghost pretender on the spot, and wait for her to confess.
The mastermind behind it, everything is over."
Concubine Yun nodded, thinking this was a good idea.
The queen glanced at her with sharp eyes and reminded: "It's just that you have to restrain yourself when the time comes. Don't say anything out of fear like you did when you met me just now."
"I know." Now that she knew it was Yu Siling who caused the trouble, she believed that she could control herself even if she was scared.
Ye Fuxun had been inquiring about the news at Qingyun Palace, and then he knew that the queen went to Qingyun Palace.
If the Queen found out, Concubine Yun would definitely not continue to go crazy. Isn't she afraid that Concubine Yun would accidentally reveal all her ulterior secrets?
Or is it that Concubine Yun has gone completely insane and cannot be saved?
In the evening, when it was close to Zi Shi, Bai Yuxian sneaked into the palace quietly and arrived at Shu Ning Palace by a familiar route.
"Why are you here so late?" Ye Fuxun asked in surprise.
Bai Yuxian looked hurriedly and said: "My people found out that someone in the palace invited a Taoist priest into the palace this afternoon. I think it was probably because of the haunting of Concubine Yun's palace.
I sent someone to investigate more carefully, and it turned out that the person who invited the Taoist priest was not Concubine Yun's people, but the Queen's people."
Ye Fuxun was doubly surprised: "The queen's people?" Is she so kind?
At this time, Bai Yue hurriedly came back to report that the queen had gone to the emperor's palace.
"She should have invited the emperor to Qingyun Palace." Ye Fuxun understood immediately. The queen wanted to catch a turtle in a jar and capture the "ghost" on the spot in front of the emperor.
"Fortunately, Qingyu hasn't gone to Qingyun Palace yet tonight."
These days, the person pretending to be a female ghost to scare Concubine Yun is Qingyu. Her figure is very similar to the former Concubine Shu, and she has excellent light skills. She comes and goes without a trace, so it is best to pretend to be a female ghost.
Bai Yuxian shook his head: "I think Qingyu should go."
Ye Fuxun didn't quite understand what he meant: "What? No matter how good Qingyu is in Qingyu, if the other party sets up a dragnet, he won't be able to escape."
"Do you know why Concubine Yun Gui suffered a mental breakdown within such a few days?" Bai Yuxian curled her lips and revealed a mysterious smile.
"It's not because she is guilty, but I asked Qingyu to put a drug that can mess up people's minds in the incense burner in her room.
This kind of drug can not only disturb people's consciousness, but also amplify people's fear. When she sees a scene that scares her, she will be unable to control herself. She doesn't know what she said or did.
.
Before Qingyu is caught, she can guide Concubine Yun to say everything she needs to say. After that, even if Qingyu is caught, what does it matter if the emperor knows that you asked her to pretend to be a ghost and scare people?"
Yes, by that time, what the emperor cared about most was the fact that he couldn't accept, and he had no intention of pursuing anything else.
After thinking about it, Ye Fuxun decided to do what Bai Yuxian said.
At Qingyun Palace, everything was as usual. But this was just the surface. In fact, the queen had arranged for several masters to ambush around the dormitory. As soon as the "female ghost" appeared, she would be captured immediately.
Concubine Yun Gui was still shivering on the bed, shivering wrapped in the quilt, but her fear at the moment was just fake.
In the middle of the night, a gust of wind blew, and strong force poured in from the window, directly blowing out the lights in the dormitory, leaving only a solitary lamp in the corner. The dim yellow fire shone in the inner room, making it dark and unclear.
At this time, the queen happened to rush over with the emperor. When she reached the door, she heard Concubine Yun's panicked cry: "Ah, don't come over, don't come over!"
The emperor couldn't help but feel anxious. He was about to go in, but was held back by the queen.
"Your Majesty, I have arranged for Taoist priests to enter the palace to drive away ghosts. You must not go in and disturb me now. It is best that we wait here."
The emperor didn't think much, so he followed the instructions and stood in the outer room with the queen and others. Through the large red lacquer hollow screen, you could probably see the shadow of the candle inside.
There was chaos inside. When the maids saw that the lights were blown out and Concubine Yun Gui fell into madness again, they knew that the "female ghost" was here again, so they all subconsciously found a place to hide.
Sure enough, in the blink of an eye, a white shadow floated in from the window and slowly approached the bed. However, everyone's eyes were on her feet.
Her feet were hidden under the white clothes, and her whole body was suspended in the air, so she just moved over.
Her long, disheveled hair was blown up by the wind, revealing a pale and frightening face, with blood stains hanging from the corners of her mouth. She looked like she had just climbed out of hell.
Concubine Yun Guifei screamed and shouted: "Don't come over! Don't come over!"
No one saw the "female ghost" stop by the bed, and when she waved her long sleeves, a layer of powder fell on her. Concubine Yun Guifei, who was acting, suddenly smelled a faint fragrance, and her consciousness gradually became confused.
