Kangxi Harem Ⅰ: Green Years

Chapter 64 (35) The Dragon Lady is haunted again in the harem (Part [-])
In just a few days, the rumors of a murdered soul were widely spread in the harem. On this day, the Empress Dowager summoned everyone to the Palace of Compassion and Ning, and said sharply: "The murdered soul is murdered, hmph, it is Concubine Jing's soul! Do you believe it?" ?” The Empress Dowager looked at the people sitting below.

Seeing that the Empress Dowager was angry, no one dared to speak.

"Concubine Jing is the niece of the Ai family, doesn't the Ai family understand? How could she do such a thing?" The Empress Dowager took a breath and continued: "In the future, no one is allowed to tell that there are ghosts in this palace. We will definitely investigate who made up such lies to confuse the harem!"

In the past few days, this rumor has become more and more fierce. The rumors passed on from Xiaoqing to Rong'er are even more impressive, and the words are quite vivid. Rong'er doesn't know if it is true or not. What about lies?And those palace people who said they had seen the ghost of Concubine Jing also said that it was very similar, but it was really not good to keep discussing like this, people panicked, and it was good for the Empress Dowager not to let people talk.

"Old Ancestor, here...someone has seen Concubine Jing, and it wasn't the concubine's random rumors." Concubine Zhao said with a look of horror.

"Have you seen it? Who is it?" The Empress Dowager asked sharply.

"The little eunuch Xiao Sanzi in the concubine's palace has seen it, and the ancestors can send him to ask if they don't believe it." Concubine Zhao replied.

The Empress Dowager heard this and said: "Okay, come here, and send the third son to come and ask questions."

After a while, the youngest son was brought here. Hearing the summons from the Empress Dowager, the youngest son got nervous when he arrived at the Palace of Compassion and Peace and saw all the masters there. He stumbled and fell to the ground.

The empress dowager glared at the youngest son who was on the ground, and asked sharply: "Little third son, the Ai family asks you, have you ever seen a ghost?"

The third son hurriedly got up and knelt on the ground, already trembling with fear, and replied: "Go back to the Empress Dowager, this servant has really seen it."

"Hmph, when did you meet? What does the ghost look like?" The Empress Dowager raised her voice and asked.

The third son became even more nervous, and replied tremblingly: "A few days ago... a few days ago... in the evening... in the imperial garden... slave... the servant returned to the palace, passed by the imperial garden... saw... that female ghost wearing a ... long white clothes, hair...loose, pale...pale face, very frightening."

"That's Concubine Jing? What did you say?" The Empress Dowager asked.

"She...she probably didn't see the servant, she was just wandering back and forth, as if saying: 'Here comes the child...the child...'" Xiaosanzi hurriedly replied, "As for whether it is Concubine Jing, the servant does not know... It was later heard that it was Concubine Jing, but I have never seen Concubine Jing, and I have not seen the appearance of that female ghost clearly."

"Hmph, you must be a slave who spread rumors, where are the ghosts in this palace!" The Empress Dowager shouted sharply, "Look at Aijia, you have to deal with you, a slave who deceives the public!"

Hearing that the Empress Dowager wanted to punish him, the youngest son hurriedly nodded his head and cried, "The Empress Dowager is aware of it. It's not just the servants who saw it. The father-in-laws in charge of the imperial garden have all seen it."

"Come on, drag this slave who spread rumors down here and give me a [-]-day slap. I'll see who dares to spread such rumors in the future." The Empress Dowager ordered angrily.

"Empress Dowager, this slave has been wronged..." The third son cried and was dragged out.

"This is just a warning! Cao Zhong!" The Empress Dowager called the father-in-law who was waiting beside her, "Tell the House of Internal Affairs and the Shangfang Court, whoever dares to spread such inappropriate rumors in this palace in the future will be dealt with severely! There is no such unclean thing!" Cao Zhong beside him responded.

The Empress Dowager looked at the crowd and said: "You are all masters, and you must strictly guard your slaves. Don't blame the Ai family for not getting to the front. Which slave in the palace will rush to spread such rumors again? You can't discipline them." Strictly be punished together!"

Seeing that the Empress Dowager was so angry, everyone dared to speak, so they hurriedly got up and responded.

"Okay, if you have nothing to do, go back first." The Empress Dowager ordered in a deep voice, and everyone retreated.

After everyone left, the Empress Dowager looked at Lagu Su Ma and Lagu next to her, and said with a sigh, "Su Mo'er, is it really Concubine Jing? Is she really like this?"

"This...with Concubine Jing's temper, she can really do it." Aunt Su Ma replied softly.

"She was pampered and extravagant in front of her, so she was abolished by Fulin. Isn't it safe to die?" The Empress Dowager whispered softly, "Why doesn't Aijia understand her? She is Aijia My dear niece, she really loves Fulin, Aijia knows, it's just the character she developed since she was a child, Fulin doesn't like it, she has grievances, Fulin abolished her but only doted on Dong E's, she was sad, she didn't Shun Xin, the Ai family knows that after being deposed for two years, she died of depression, and the Ai family also felt heartbroken. The Ai family never blamed her, but is her hatred so deep? Do you want to hurt Xuan Ye's child?"

Aunt Su Mala also sighed softly: "Concubine Jing's temper is too stubborn, she doesn't accept the Dong E family, she can't tolerate Emperor Shunzhi's favor on others, and she refuses to speak soft words to Emperor Shunzhi, that's why she got deposed destiny."

The Empress Dowager nodded lightly: "Actually, she is also an idiot in love, a fool in love!"

"Old Ancestor, why don't we perform rituals in the harem, which can not only drive away evil spirits, but also appease Concubine Jing's soul." Aunt Su Ma suggested.

The Empress Dowager nodded: "I hope it's really possible."

"The old ancestor has always been very devout to the Buddha, and I believe that the Buddha will protect the harem." Aunt Suma comforted him softly.
