The happy coffin is opened, all ghosts disperse, the princess comes from hell

To the east of the city, there is a small courtyard.

Baisui respectfully placed the offerings in front of the sacred table, replaced the incense candles, and then left.

There are several tablets placed in front of the sacred table.

The two tablets in the middle are obviously those of the late prince and his wife, but the ones placed below them are those of the Zhenguo Hou family of four. The smallest tablet at the end has no name.

Xiao Chenyan first took three incense sticks and lit them before paying homage to his parents. However, as soon as the incense fell into the incense burner, the sparks were extinguished, leaving only smoke.

He took three more and paid homage to the tablet in Zhenguo Hou Mansion, but the result was still the same.

If you don’t eat incense, you won’t receive offerings.

It has been like this for ten years.

Ten years ago, his father, queen, mother and concubine "immolated themselves" in the East Palace, and no bones were left.

Ten years ago, his mentor and friend, the Marquis of Zhenguo, his wife and their eldest son died in battle in the north, and their bodies were trampled into mud by the enemy.

The only little girl is said to have died on that snowy night, but no one has seen her body.

When Xiao Chenyan was demoted and went to the north, he tried his best to pick up the bones of his old friend, but found nothing.

He had sent someone to check whether the little Doudin was still alive.

But everyone said she was dead.

Madam Zhen Guo Hou took her to stay in Beiwang City. When the city was broken, Madam Zhen Guo Hou led the soldiers and civilians in the city to fight to the death.

As for the little girl, she sent someone to send her away, but the sergeant who sent her away encountered an ambush by the Hu people as soon as they left the city.

All the sergeants died in the battle.

How could a twelve-year-old girl survive from those barbarians who drank their hair and blood?

Some say she died that night.

Xiao Chenyan also thought she was dead, but he was stubborn and still had a glimmer of hope. Could she still be alive?

Until the bloody nightmare tonight.

He always felt that it was not a dream, but that it really happened.

The little girl he delivered and named died with his own hands before she could grow into a charming green mountain.

Xiao Chenyan took off the nameless tablet, took out the dagger, and carved the name in one stroke.

——The daughter of the Marquis of Zhenguo, Yun Qingwu.

After placing the tablet in place again, Xiao Chenyan picked up a piece of sweet cake and placed it in front of the small tablet.

Then he poured down the Shao Dao wine and then left.

The door slowly closed.

He never saw that after he left, the three incense sticks that had been standing in the incense burner and could not be ignited suddenly rekindled, and the incense smoke drifted towards the small tablet with his name engraved on it.

It was already a quarter of an hour when Xiao Chenyan returned to the palace, and it was almost dawn. Thinking that Qingwu usually slept until three o'clock in the morning before getting up, he did not return to Moshiyuan. When he was about to go to the study, he saw someone lazily sleeping. He came over here, carrying a pheasant in his hand.

"Oh, is my cousin going out or just coming home?" Yeyou said with a smile, "You and your cousin are newlyweds, and you always let her stay alone in the empty room. Isn't it good?"

As soon as this old ghost appeared, everyone was alert.

Bai Sui subconsciously wanted to stand in front of Xiao Chenyan to prevent bad luck for his prince.

Xiao Chenyan was the first to speak: "How long have Mr. Yelang and the princess known each other?"

Ye You smiled broadly and answered without haste. He threw the pheasant to Bai Sui and said, "Give it to the cook. We'll have chicken stewed with mushrooms for lunch."

After saying that, he looked at Xiao Chenyan: "Cousin, if you're not in a hurry, could you please buy me a drink?"

"I just smelled the smell of alcohol on you."

Xiao Chenyan nodded and went to the Garden Lake Pavilion, one person and one ghost.

Bai Sui handed the pheasant to someone else and hurried to follow.

When they arrived at Huting, Shaodao wine was served, Ye You couldn't wait to take a big sip, and choked on the spicy taste.

"This wine... is terrible to drink." He said with a painful expression, "Didn't the palace order good wine?"

Baisui stood next to him with a look of disdain.

Xiao Chenyan's expression was as usual: "It's bitterly cold in the north. Burning knives are the cheapest and can warm the body."

Ye You shook his head, stopped torturing himself, and pushed the wine glass away: "What exactly does my cousin want to know?"

"How long has she been a ghost?"

"I don't know about that." Yeyou's smile did not change: "In any case, time is better than me."

Xiao Chenyan's eyes moved slightly, not knowing what he thought of.

The underworld is a night wandering god, and the ghost has a long life.

If the ghost of his own female ghost outlives him, then naturally it cannot be what he thinks.

I felt a little disappointed, but not surprised.

Although there are many similarities, how could she be that little girl?

"Was she ever human?"

Yeyou's expression was a little strange, "...it can be considered as a normal person."

After more than ten years of being a human being, you can still be considered a human being, right?

Xiao Chenyan's eyes became more thoughtful: "What she looks like now is her true face?"

A flash of light flashed across Ye You's eyes, and he smiled lazily: "She may not be the same as what you and I see."

He really wanted to see Ah Wu's good show, but that damn devil was very temperamental and ruthless!

Selling a dead ghost feels good for a while, but then goes to volcano hell.

Yeyou changed his tone and directly changed the topic: "Last night, the little mountain spirit saved someone, and she was the concubine of the historian."

"I have been left to your subordinates. How to deal with it? It's up to you, cousin, to decide~"

Ye You smiled and said, "Then Mrs. Shi guesses that the fact that she is 'pregnant' has been leaked, and she wants to take the opportunity to kill someone and silence her."

Xiao Chenyan did not answer, but looked at him with dark eyes.

Yeyou also knew that the topic had changed abruptly. He shrugged his shoulders in a nonchalant manner, "The wine tastes too bad, so I won't drink it. I worked as a doorman for someone last night, so I need to get some sleep to catch up."

After he finished speaking, he stood up and saw the hundred-year-old man next to him with an unruly and dog-like appearance. He couldn't help but sneered and said:

"Children who cry are fed by milk. You are the only one who can get yourself a Yin Guan blessing by crying. You are awesome, cowhide, cowhide~"

Ye You gave a thumbs up, Bai Sui was confused.

"What are you crying about? Your Majesty, are you scolding me?"

The 100-year-old baby face is angry and feels insulted. Real men never cry! How often had he cried?

Meeting Xiao Chenyan's appraising gaze, Baisui became even more embarrassed and angry: "Your Majesty! I really don't like to cry!"

"When was the last time you cried?"

"Ah? This...how can I remember this?" Baisui said bitterly.

"If you can't remember, think about it."

Xiao Chenyan said this. Thinking of Ye You's words about "blessing from the Yin official", for no reason, he thought of Qing Wu's tolerance towards Bai Sui.

He tapped his knuckles on the table.

"Think again why you're crying."

Baisui: "..."

What nonsense! I really can’t believe what that old ghost said, my lord!

I'm a real man and I can't even remember when I cried. The last time I cried...

It seems to be the time when the little lady died?

No, can that make me cry? It was purely because of the heavy wind and snow in the north. His eyes were red from the wind. He couldn't sleep well at night and had nightmares, so he bit the corners of his quilt and had a runny nose. He wasn't crying!

Feeling that he had perfectly concealed his identity for Qingwu, Ye You immediately froze as soon as he entered Moshiyuan, and his expression suddenly changed.

His nose twitched, he pointed at Qingnu's bedroom and asked, "Is she drinking?"

Lvqiao and Hongrui got up early and looked at each other in shock when they heard this: "The princess has been sleeping and hasn't drank."

Ye You twitched the corner of his mouth and slapped his forehead. The smell of the wine was very familiar. It was clearly the Shao Daozi he had just drank, but the smell of the wine was also mixed with the smell of incense.

Apparently someone made a sacrifice to this dead ghost.

My dear Ghost Emperor, this damn ghost can't drink!

The last time she drank, her vagina was almost buried in the snow!

Ye You was having a headache when he saw something crystal falling from the sky.

Lu Qiao said in surprise: "Is this...snowflake?"

"Snowing?"

As soon as Xiao Chenyan walked out of the lake pavilion, he felt a chill on his face.

He raised his head, hesitated slightly, and reached out to catch a snowflake.

The snowflakes melted in the palm of my hand, and the cold snow was mixed with traces of faint floral fragrance.

It's the scent of iris.
