Long Song Fenghua: The Demon Queen Confused the King's Heart

Chapter 285

At this time, Mu Changge had checked Qi Jinzhi's injuries, and his expression turned cold when he heard this, "Do you dare not answer the prince's question?"

"Slaves...Slaves really don't know!"

"You concubine, I can't move, but it may not be difficult for me to make a palace goddess disappear without anyone noticing."

With a deep voice, Su Yunhao stared at the maidservant intently, and there was a hint of coercion in his words.

The palace maid shook her body and knelt down on the ground with a thud, "I really dare not say anything, even if I did, I'm afraid His Highness might not believe it!"

"Say." Su Yunhao said heavily.

"Servant..." Seeing that she really couldn't dodge, the little palace maid simply sank her heart, and said bravely, "The palace of the empress dowager...is haunted."

When she said this, the maidservant's face turned pale, and her body shook like chaff, "At first, the maidservant didn't believe it, but there is indeed a ghost in the imperial concubine's bedroom!"

As soon as the word "haunted" came out, Mu Changge thought about the anomaly with the concubine before, and vaguely noticed something, "Is the emperor that the empress dowager saw the same as the haunted one you said?"

"I dare not be disrespectful to the late emperor!" The maidservant said tremblingly, "But that...it is true."

Looking back carefully at the closed door, the servant girl's eyes sized up the people in front of her for a while, as if she was thinking about something.

After a while, I saw that she was cautious, and lowered her voice again and again, "I really don't dare to hide His Highness the Crown Prince. In fact, before the second Miss Mu came that day, the Empress Dowager Princess had already started to claim that the late Emperor came back to see her. .”

"Since then, the concubine has been a little restless, and occasionally she will talk to herself, saying something that the servants don't understand."

Su Yunhao was very suspicious, "What did you say to the concubine?"

"The servants can only hear a few words, similar to... the late emperor told her that the fate of the Bai'an country may be difficult, and she must obey him in order to make the fortune of the Bai'an country prosperous..."

After hearing the words of the little palace maid, Mu Changge vaguely understood that that day, when he and the concubine met her for the first time in this peach forest, it was also given to her by hearing the so-called "appearance of the first emperor". guidance.

In addition, all the strange behaviors with the concubine since then are all because of the entrustment of the first emperor to her.

"Wait a minute." Qi Jinzhi's brows sank, "It sounds absurd to say that the first emperor appeared. Except for the concubine, have any of you actually seen the so-called first emperor?"

The maidservant in the palace nodded without hesitation, her voice lowered even more, revealing a ghostly air, "My maidservant has seen it with her own eyes."

The three of them were all stunned for a moment, motioning for her to continue talking.

The little palace maid was trembling, "That night, it happened that the servant was on duty. The servant... the servant heard a strange movement from the dowager concubine's room in the middle of the night."

"This servant finds it very strange, so I approached it quietly. When I got closer, this servant saw... There is indeed a figure in front of the window of the Empress Dowager Tai!"

"That figure is not an ordinary person's body, the whole body is full of light, and it is also a little green. When the servant passed by, it seemed to be a bit late... Although I didn't see what the figure looked like, I saw it with my own eyes. See it go away!"

When mentioning this matter, the maidservant of the palace still had some lingering fears, the cold sweat permeated her chest and back, she couldn't stop shivering no matter what.

"As for the other things, I really don't know anything! I have already told you everything that I know, and I really don't have a single word to hide!"

Mu Changge and the three of them exchanged glances again. From the looks of it, the little palace maid should not have lied.

It's just...how could the late emperor, who had been dead for many years, suddenly appear in the form of a soul?
Mu Changge's brows darkened slightly. No matter how he thought about this matter, he still had a strange feeling that made people inexplicable.

I heard from the maidservant in the palace that she and the concubine kept saying that it was for the fate of Bai'an, but if it was true that the late emperor was for the fate of Bai'an, why didn't he appear in front of the emperor?
The emperor, the prince, no matter which one is more likely to affect Bai'an's national fortune than He Taifei, if the late emperor really cared about Bai'an's national fortune wholeheartedly, how could he pass these two and come to He Taifei's place? ?

Gu Nian's little palace maid came out for too long, which would easily arouse the suspicion of the concubine, so Su Yunhao motioned her to stand up, "Go back to the concubine, you should know what to say and what not to say."

The little palace maid nodded again and again, Su Yunhao turned his eyes again, and said in a low voice: "If you notice anything again, you must remember to tell me, understand?"

Seeing her answer repeatedly, Su Yunhao waved his hand, signaling her to go back quickly.

It's not a betrayal for the little palace maid to do this. In this palace, there has always been a shortage of people who follow the wind and make the rudder.

What's more, it is clear at a glance which one is more worthy of trust, an old concubine or the current prince.

The matter of the first emperor is really weird and unknown, if someone stays with Concubine He and secretly tells them what they have seen and heard, maybe they can find some clues.

However, after only a short hour, the little palace maid died.

When the body was being carried away, Mu Changge and Su Qingrou happened to bump into each other.

The person who carried the corpse was a newcomer to the palace and didn't know the rules yet, so he bumped into the eldest princess in a daze, and was trembling with fright, sweating profusely.

It just so happened that during this nervousness, someone in front slipped his hand, and the body fell straight to the ground, smashing out a puddle of watermarks.

Su Qingrou was startled when she saw it, "What's going on?"

"Princess forgive me, this slave deserves to die, this slave deserves to die!" The little eunuch who carried the corpse panicked, "Slave...slave..."

"Just carry it away." Su Qingrou frowned and said, "Pick it up and continue walking. If you keep stopping here and bump into others, then you will really look good."

"My servant thanked the princess!" The little eunuch wiped off his cold sweat, and hastily stretched out his hand to tear the corpse.

This pull made Mu Changge's eyes freeze.

She had just seen this face more than an hour ago, and she would never admit it wrong.

The person who died was the little servant girl in the bedroom with the concubine.

Her whole body was wet, and there was blood oozing from her mouth and nose, her stomach was distended, and she looked terrified.

Mu Changge secretly suppressed the chill in his eyes, pretended to be nonchalant, and sighed quite a bit: "The appearance of this little palace maid is really miserable, and she looks good, what's going on?"

"This..." The little eunuch didn't know whether to speak, and subconsciously looked at Su Qingrou.

Su Qingrou knew that Mu Changge would never ask questions for no reason, so Dang even said: "I look familiar to this girl, what's the matter?"

When Su Qingrou opened her mouth, the little eunuch had absolutely no reason not to answer, but before she spoke, she turned her head to look carefully, and sighed when she saw that there was no one else.

"He is serving by the concubine's side. I don't know what evil has caught me today. She was fine, but suddenly she yelled about being haunted, saying she saw a ghost."

"Others thought she was crazy, but who knew she was so frightened that she jumped into a well in Taolin without saying a word."

"Actually, if she talks about it in time, she can probably be rescued in all likelihood, but her jump annoyed the concubine and the concubine. The empress dowager got angry and refused to allow anyone to rescue her."

The little eunuch sighed again, "According to my servant, she must have lost her mind for some reason, but this jump is really irreparable."

No wonder her body looked like this. It turned out that she jumped into the well and drowned alive.

Mu Changge glanced at the corpse, and there was a trace of coldness in his eyes.

She never believed that the servant girl had gone crazy, the little eunuch said, before she jumped in, she kept saying that she had seen a ghost, what was that ghost?
Her intuition told her that the reason why the maidservant jumped into the well must be related to their conversation today.

It's just...Mu Changge subconsciously frowned, every single word she said today flashed across her eyes like a revolving lantern.

What exactly did he say that brought about this murderous disaster for her?
Who would be the one to attack her?And the concubine's failure to save her was due to a moment of anger, annoyed that she committed suicide and dirty the palace, or... had ulterior motives?
One after another, mysteries appeared before her eyes, but Mu Changge vaguely felt that there was a light somewhere behind those mysteries, which flickered slightly. Stuff, what exactly does it mean...

"Princess these days, it's better to stay quietly in the bedroom and not move around."

Watching the little eunuch carrying the corpse away, Mu Changge glanced at Su Qingrou beside him, and said.

Su Qingrou also sighed softly, "I don't know when the palace will be truly quiet."

A few hours later, night fell.

A figure slipped away from Mu Changge's temporary residence, and sneaked into the bedroom with the concubine.

In the bedroom of the concubine and the concubine, there was no sound, and the black shadow that had just lurked in did not know where it went in the blink of an eye.

In the dead of night, Concubine and Concubine should have rested early, but at this moment, she was neatly dressed and sitting upright on the bed, as if she was waiting for someone.

Nanny Gui came forward and whispered, "Princess Taifei, it's time to rest."

"If the late emperor doesn't come, how can I just sleep like this?" Concubine He Tai said seriously, "Wouldn't that be disrespectful to the late emperor!?"

"But..." Nanny Gui almost slipped her words, and immediately swallowed back the words on the dignified expressions of Shang and Concubine Dowager, "Madam, don't you need to keep slaves here to serve you tonight?"

"No need." He Taifei said, but his expression was vaguely dazed, "There are other people around, and the late emperor is not safe. It is better for you to stay away, so as not to disturb the late emperor."
