The sound of the wooden fish beside stopped, and someone muttered: "It is heard that the souls of those who died unjustly will be attached to the black cat."

Everyone looked at each other in bewilderment. Everyone knew that the queen had drunk poison and died of a heart attack.

"Meow--"

The black cat sat down on the coffin and rubbed its head against it.

Then he stared at the people in front of him with a pair of green eyes, not seeming to be timid at all.

There was blood on the black cat's feet, but no one knew where it came from.

The eunuch stepped in hurriedly and said to the princes, "Prince, the nanny Lian who delivered the poisoned wine to the queen is dead. She died suddenly, but there are traces of animal bites all over her body."

Lian Ma was the wet nurse of Emperor Wen Zhao and had been working beside him for many years.

Everyone gasped. Sure enough, the Queen's spirit possessed the black cat to seek revenge.

The blood on the black cat's feet must be from Lian Momo.

Jun Minhuai's heart also began to panic.

Is there really such a supernatural thing?

The black cat still lazily lay on the coffin, put down the silk handkerchief in its mouth, and began to lick the blood on its feet with its tongue.

Jun Minhuai's face was gloomy: "Someone, come and drive this cat out."

Regardless of whether it is the Queen's spirit or not, the cat must be driven out first.

The guards outside rushed into the palace.

The black cat picked up the silk handkerchief again, suddenly stood up and jumped swiftly, landing on Jun Minhuai's knees, and gave Jun Minhuai two claws on the face.

A feeling of pain spread across his face.

When he came to his senses, the black cat had left his lap.

"Kill this damned beast for me."

Junmin was extremely angry.

But the cat was so agile that many guards were helpless against it.

Even after a few dodged moves, he came to Jun Yichen's side.

It looked at Jun Yichen with its green cat pupils for a few seconds, and then placed the bright yellow handkerchief in its mouth on Jun Yichen's body.

Jun Yichen reached out and picked up the cat, then raised his hand to signal the guards to retreat.

"Second brother, this cat hurt me."

Seeing Jun Yichen trying to protect the black cat, Jun Minhuai became even angrier.

Jun Minhuai raised his eyes calmly and said, "Fourth brother, don't bother with a beast. Today is the day when the Queen Mother is keeping vigil. Don't get angry and don't add more blood."

Jun Minhuai stared at the black cat in Jun Yichen's arms and gritted his teeth.

Jun Zeyuan picked up the bright yellow silk handkerchief.

There were several lifelike snowflakes embroidered on the silk handkerchief, and it was obvious that they were made by the Queen Mother.

My mother always likes to embroider things with double thread.

Below the snowflakes was a line of small words: "We may live in different houses, but we may die in the same grave."

Jun Yichen recalled that his mother once said that the imperial physician Qingchuan liked Xuehua very much.

In Yiyunshi, in Lin Yushi's mansion, Qingchuan, who was not yet an imperial physician, always liked to watch the snow falling all over the sky, and his young mother also always liked to watch it with him.

This bright yellow handkerchief belongs to the queen mother and is made of the finest silk.

He put the silk handkerchief in his arms and touched the black cat's head. He remembered that the black cat had been injured before and it was his mother who saved it.

Black cats are frequent visitors to Fengqi Palace, but black cats are unlucky, so usually when no one is around, the black cat will go in to look for her.

But it never shied away from him.

When he first saw it, it was squatting in its mother's arms, taking a lazily nap.

The Queen Mother smiled and said, "This cat is very smart. If someone else had come in, it would have run away, but it is not afraid of Chen'er."

Moreover, my mother told me that this cat not only likes to watch the snow, but also likes to roll snowballs in the snow.

The black cat took a few steps back, barely avoiding Jun Yichen's touch, and called out to Jun Yichen a few times.

Seeing Jun Yichen nodded, he crouched down and quickly disappeared from the Hall of Supreme Harmony.

Jun Yichen looked helplessly at the bloody plum blossom mark on his white clothes.

Everyone looked at this scene in a daze.

Jun Minhuai's face was even more gloomy: "Find it, find the beast and catch it first. It's not suitable to shed blood today, so kill it another day. Since you scratched my face."

Jun Zeyuan: "Second brother, do you know this cat?"

Jun Yichen put a piece of paper in the fire basin: "We met a few times, and it accompanied my mother to watch the snow together."

Jun Zeyuan: "......"

"That bright yellow silk handkerchief belongs to the Queen Mother?"

"My mother once saved it when it was injured. Black cats are spirits. It just came to see me off."

Jun Minhuai: "Ridiculous! Then why did it scratch my face?"

Jun Yichen looked at the scratches on Jun Minhuai's face and said calmly, "Maybe it thinks you deserve it."

Jun Min was so angry that he suddenly felt the pain from his eight broken ribs becoming even worse.

Jun Minrong lowered his head, unable to see the emotion in his eyes. No matter whether the cat was black or white, it had nothing to do with him if he had offended the queen.

At midnight, the snow outside was even more severe.

On such a cold day, even if rows of golden charcoal fires were lit in the Hall of Supreme Harmony, it couldn't keep out the chill.
