After being exiled, I took my whole family to farm in space

Chapter 218 Catching Ghosts in Anle Palace 2

"Why are you crying here?"

"When I first entered the palace, I was also working as an errand in Anle Palace, because I accidentally broke a vase and was so frightened that I cried.

At that time, I scared Concubine Xian and was punished by the steward aunt. My good sisters interceded for me, so I was exempted from the punishment. I was only kicked out of the Anle Palace. I heard that she left uneasily, so I came here to burn paper money for her. . "

"How did your sister die?" Mu Chaochao walked over and asked.

The palace maid looked at her and was stunned for a moment.

"Young Princess, you still don't answer truthfully when you ask questions." Tianquan shouted sharply.

"Back to the little princess, the Concubine Xian died of illness. My sister was the personal maid of the Concubine Xian. She treated her very well during her lifetime, so she naturally left with her."

"Since you voluntarily went to die, why did you say you couldn't leave peacefully?"

"This... slave also guessed this after hearing that Anle Palace was haunted last night."

Mu Chaochao looked at her as if she was lying.

"The palace maid can leave the palace when she reaches twenty-five years old. Why are you still in the palace?" Ye Huaichen also came over.

"My servant pays homage to His Highness Seventh Highness." The maid saw Ye Huaichen and knelt down to salute.

"Reply well."

"Your Majesty, Seventh Highness, ever since my slave was born, my crying had scared the midwife to death. Later, people in the village said that I was an unlucky person and they avoided me.

After the slave entered the palace, he met someone who did not dislike the slave's unpleasant cry and stayed in the palace. "The palace maid was a little shy when she said this.

"Who is that person who doesn't dislike you?" Ye Huai Yao was curious about what kind of person is not afraid of the sound of this ghost crying.

"It's Eunuch Zhang from Peach Blossom Palace."

"Eunuch Zhang, the steward of Peach Blossom Palace?" Ye Linlang was surprised. It turned out that this palace maid was having sex with the eunuch.

"Back to the Sixth Princess, it's him."

"Does Eunuch Zhang know you are here?"

"You know, I couldn't sleep the past few nights. I kept dreaming about my dead sisters. Eunuch Zhang said that he might not be able to collect any money underground, so he asked me to burn some for her.

The slave girl thought that the slave girl would not dare to approach this crying ghost, so she came to burn paper money for her good sister. "

"Did you know that a eunuch was frightened and went crazy last night?"

"It's none of my business. I also saw white shadows floating by. Little Xiangzi was frightened by ghost shadows and will-o'-the-wisps."

Everything that needs to be known is known, Mu Chaochao knocked out the palace maid with a silver needle.

"What do you think?"

"There is no way the Ministry of Internal Affairs has phosphorus powder. Someone brought the phosphorus powder in. How did they avoid inspection."

The Anle Palace is very big, and so many will-o'-the-wisps must have used a lot of phosphorus powder. It would be bad luck to transport them into the palace.

"This silk satin is light and can float around when the wind blows. Guangchusi has it."

"Now that these two are complete, the only thing left is the sound of ghost crying. Eunuch Zhang is very suspicious."

"What else did you encounter on the way here?"

"Brother Chen, I met an eunuch who came in looking for money. He is not suspicious, but there are other people here."

"How to say?"

"This eunuch heard that Concubine Xian said that she would not die with her eyes in peace and was looking for Brother Three Emperors. I guess the person who was frightened and went crazy last night also encountered the same situation. Brother Three Emperors didn't come, so he repeated his old tricks."

"If you die with your eyes closed, look for the third child. Didn't the Concubine Xian die of illness?"

"What do the people behind this want to do? Didn't the Concubine Xian die of illness?"

"Sister Liu Huang, don't make blind guesses."

Mu Chaochao looked at Ye Huaichen in confusion. She thought it was reasonable.

"Brother Chen, do you know something?"

"I don't know." He just felt that if Concubine Xian had not died of illness, Emperor Ping Zhao should know.

"Regardless of how Concubine Xian died, how are we going to find this ghost now?"

"Yes, this ghost must still be here."

“There are places we haven’t been yet, let’s go there again.”

"We haven't been to the back garden yet."

"We haven't been there yet either."

"Let's go together."

There were no lights in the back garden, and it was dark all around. A few people walked in the dim moonlight.

"It's so dark!"

"Strange, why are there no will-o'-the-wisps here?"

"Be alert, let's spread out."

We are all martial arts practitioners, so we can still see the way.

Ye Huaichen and Mu Chao walked toward the rockery.

It was even darker inside the rockery. When Ye Huaichen heard the noise, he drew his sword and started fighting with the person opposite.

Mu Chaochao took out the luminous pearl, and the rockery was illuminated.

"It's Brother Three Emperors!"

"Brother Three Emperors!" Seeing that it was one of their own, the two of them put away their swords at the same time.

"Brother Three Emperors, haven't you left the capital?"

"I heard that someone was playing tricks in the mother-in-law's palace. I rushed back after finishing the work."

"Brother Third Emperor, did you find anything?"

"I followed the shadow here. I lost the trace and am looking for it."

"It's so small here that it's hard to hide from people." Mu Chaochao looked around with the night pearl.

"Your Highness, we didn't find anything there." Tianquan walked into the rockery.

"Brother Three Emperors, you are here too!" Ye Huai Yao and Ye Linlang also came over.

"We didn't find anyone there either."

"Let's look for more at the rockery."

Ye Huaichen saw that Mu Chaochao had been touching for a while, and then started to look for it too.

"Xiao Qi, do you suspect there is a secret passage here?"

"It's possible. The person I chased disappeared here." Ye Huaijue also started to explore.

For a long time, no one found the switch.

"No, are we overthinking it?" After touching for a while, Mu Chaochao became suspicious.

"There is a stone here with white powder on it." Tianshu squatted on the ground.

"The powder on top is white phosphorus."

"After this person released the white phosphorus in Anle Palace, he fled here in a hurry and left evidence. Tianshu quickly press the switch."

Ye Linlang shouted excitedly, her hard work this night was finally not in vain.

Tianshu pressed the switch, and a passage appeared on the ground.

"Let's go down and have a look."

"My subordinates will go down first." Tianquan took a fire stick and lit it, and the first one jumped off.

The secret passage is only wide enough for two people to pass through.

"This secret passage doesn't look like it was recently dug?"

The night pearl illuminated the dark passage very brightly, and everyone could see it clearly.

"Brother Three Emperors, we met an eunuch who said that the virtuous concubine refused to die with her eyes open and wanted to find you."

"Didn't the mother-in-law die of illness? Who is pretending to be a ghost in the name of the mother-in-law?"

"Brother Sanhuang, you just saw the black shadow and chased you to the rockery?"

"Yes. Could it be that the person behind the scenes is targeting me?"

"Brother Three Emperors, I suspect that this secret passage has something to do with Concubine Xian." Concubine Xian must have known about it if she could dig a secret passage in Anle Palace.

"Maybe, let's see where the secret passage leads first." Ye Huaijue's face was solemn.

Concubine Xian died when he was young, and she didn't leave much impression on him. Over the years, no one mentioned Concubine Xian. If he hadn't existed, no one in the palace would have thought about it at all. There is also the person Xian Fei.

The Queen treated him as if she were her own child. If the Queen hadn't mentioned the Concubine to him, he probably wouldn't have remembered his biological mother.

Except for the Queen, no other nobles in the palace mentioned Concubine Xian. Now that I think about it, Concubine Xian seems to have been deliberately forgotten.
