This Prince Consort Is No Pushover!

Soon it was evening.

In winter at night, the sky is dark, the cold wind howls, rolls up the withered branches and leaves on the ground, and makes a "whoosh whoosh" sound.

Suddenly, with a bang, the door of the house was blown open by the wind, and Shanshan suddenly stood up.

Seeing that Shanshan was so timid, the maid in the same room asked, "Shanshan, what's the matter with you?"

"The wind, the wind blew the door open!" Shanshan tensed.

The palace maid said, "isn't it the wind that blows the door open? Just close it. Why are you so nervous?"

At this time, there was a sudden sound of footsteps outside the door, and Shanshan's nerve tightened again, "who is it?"

When she finished, she saw Mother Xue leading two palace maids into the room.

As soon as mother Xue saw Shanshan, she said in a deep voice, "Shanshan, have you cleaned the cold palace you are responsible for?"

Shanshan hurriedly said, "go back to Mammy and clean it up!"

"Cleaned up? How dare you lie? Go and see for yourself. The yard of the cold palace is full of dead branches and rotten leaves. It hasn't been cleaned up at all. Don't you sweep it again soon?" mother Xue said coldly.

Shanshan quickly shook her head: "snow Mammy, I really cleaned up. Those dead branches may have been blown by the wind, and now it's dark, and there's no one there. I dare not go alone."

At this time, a maid next to mother Xue said, "mother, it's dark and cold outside this big night, and the cold palace is often haunted. Don't let Shanshan go?"

Shanshan suddenly shakes when she hears the word "haunted".

Mother Xue said, "if she didn't do anything wrong, what was she afraid of? Were she afraid of ghosts coming to her?"

"That's true, Shanshan. Don't be afraid. Go and sweep quickly!" said the maid in waiting.

"But I've cleaned it this afternoon!" Shanshan thought that the cold palace was haunted and dared not go at once!

Mother Xue drank coldly, "what if you sweep it again? We saw it just now, and it's still dirty after you sweep it. Now go and clean it quickly. If you haven't cleaned it in two hours, I'll deal with you according to the palace rules!"

Mother Xue said and took people away!

Seeing mother Xue's cold back, the maid in waiting hurriedly picked up the broom and handed it to Shanshan, "Shanshan, mother Xue is our supervisor. You can't listen to her. Go and clean the cold palace again, or you'll be careful to get hit by the board!"

Shanshan was afraid of being hit by the board. She had to take over the broom, lift a small lantern and walk slowly towards the cold palace.

-

There are few people outside on winter nights, and there is no one on the road to the cold palace.

It was dark all around. Shanshan walked on the Palace Road trembling, and her heart jumped with fear.

Soon, she went to the door of the cold palace and hung the lantern on the tree. Then she looked around and quickly began to sweep the floor.

At this time, the wind blew more and more strongly, making the lantern flicker.

Suddenly, the wind blew the lantern to the ground, and the candles in the lantern went out in an instant!

"Ah!" when she saw the lanterns go out, Shanshan was so frightened that she held the broom tightly. She looked up and found that it was dark and quiet around.

There was no light in the sky. The palace wall in the distance was dark. It was so dark that you couldn't see your fingers around.

Remembering the haunting in the cold palace, she dared not stay here. She was so frightened that she picked up the broom and ran outside.

Suddenly, the cold wind was mixed with a burst of ghost breathing and heavy footsteps. Then, a dirty white shadow floated in front of her.
