The psychic Xi ​​Lan

Chapter 7 Dongshi Lantern Festival

Long Xilan was unprepared, because of this sudden change, she leaned forward.

Fortunately, a strong hand stopped him in time, and he was saved from falling out of the carriage.

"Miss Ji, are you alright?" King Li Huaixu helped her sit down.

She shook her head, thinking, if it wasn't for the bulky and exaggerated women's clothing, which made her unsteady, she wouldn't be so delicate.

Seeing that she was fine, Li Huai turned his head and asked the attendants outside. "Liu Jin, what happened?"

Liu Jin replied in panic from outside: "I tell the lord, just now an old woman came out crying, if she hadn't reined in the horse rein in time, the old woman would have died under the horse's hooves."

Hearing this, Long Xilan gently opened the curtain and took a look, and she saw an old woman with a white cloth tied on her head sitting on the road crying, there were quite a lot of people watching on both sides, everyone pointed and no one came to help her.

With this attire, it seems that someone in the family died, but the old woman was crying sadly, and she kept saying: "My son was killed by the grieving ghost!"

"You don't have to worry, Liu Jin will take care of it." Xu Wang's observation skills are excellent, so she can see Long Xilan's thoughts, she smiled lightly, and did not answer.

Liu Jin quickly got down from the carriage and came to the old woman, trying to help her up, but the old woman refused and cried until she died.

King Xu was also watching in the car. Seeing this, he couldn't help but frown. It was almost dark, and he didn't want to waste time here, so he ordered his trusted guard Yan Ting to help.

Just as Yan Ting walked over, the old woman caught sight of Long Xilan who was sitting in the carriage watching, her eyes widened immediately, and she yelled fiercely and frightened: "The female ghost who killed my son is on the carriage, everyone! Neighbors, that female ghost is in that carriage!"

The old woman's voice was desolate, and the more she shouted, the louder she shouted.

Everyone's eyes of disapproval immediately shot over.

Li Huai hurriedly pulled down the curtain, seeing Long Xilan's brows furrowed tightly, he comforted him: "Miss Ji don't worry about the ignorant words of an ignorant woman."

She nodded, pretending to be sensible.

It's just that what she was worried about was not when others thought she was a harmful female ghost, but whether the old woman's son was really killed by a female ghost?If so, could it be Ji Jinhua, the female ghost who was on the wall that night and led her into the General's Mansion?

Yan Ting took the old woman away, and the cries gradually faded away.

Long Xilan asked a little cautiously: "I don't know how the prince will deal with the mother-in-law who blocked the carriage?"

"This matter, of course we have to follow the rules." Li Huai's calm face was cloudy and windy, but Long Xilan guessed that the old woman would be imprisoned for lying, right?

This is the capital city, at the foot of the emperor, it's fine that the old woman bumped into an ordinary official just now, but she just pointed at the carriage of Prince Xu's mansion and made abusive remarks, Long Xilan wanted to intercede for her, but she couldn't open her mouth!

Judging from Li Huai's horoscope, he is soft on the outside and strong on the inside, and he has a city in his heart. He will never change his mind because of the benevolence of a woman like her.

Therefore, she didn't say anything else.

Li Huai glanced at her calm face, feeling a little impressed by the woman.

The carriage is back on the road, and Dongshi, where you can watch the lanterns at night, will arrive soon!

All kinds of night lights are on, red and green, not inferior to the colorful scene in the imperial garden in spring.

Long Xilan and Li Huai walked side by side in the crowd, and she was not infected by the lively crowd around her. She seemed to be watching the lanterns, but she was actually confirming how many guards were hiding in the dark around here.

One, two, three, four... She couldn't count at all. She felt dark in her heart, and she didn't know how many of them belonged to Ji Jinjiang, and how many of them belonged to Xu Wang Li Huai.

Finally, her eyes fell on a lantern car. A girl in a gray cotton gown was looking at her beggingly with big round eyes.

Li Huai followed her gaze and found a particularly beautiful red lantern on the lantern car, so he called Liu Jin who was following behind to buy the lantern.

Long Xilan was not as happy as an ordinary woman when she got something she loved, she just said calmly: "My lord, look at the color of this lantern, it's really special."

Li Huai didn't pay attention at all, but after hearing what she said, it was indeed more dazzling than other red lanterns, so he took the lantern and smelled it, then frowned.

How can this paper lantern have a faint fishy smell?
