Spring dyed pear blossoms

The situation in the palace became more and more obvious, and Meng Qiucheng's time became more and more urgent.If it drags on, it will not be good for her or the princess, nor will it be good for the emperor.

Just after noon, Xia Lian in the Hall of Qinghe fanned Wei Anrong and said, "Princess, Mrs. Meng went to the file office the day before yesterday and stayed there for an afternoon. When she left later, she seemed quite happy. I don't know." Have you found any clues?"

Wei Anrong felt uneasy all the time, lowered his head and took a sip of a cup of cold dish, "I couldn't find what he wanted in the file, there must be another reason for his happiness."

Xia Lian was puzzled, "You are happy if you can't find the reason? Princess, you are joking! Everyone in the palace is watching this matter! If you can't find any clues, Mr. Meng won't be able to keep his head, so why are you still in the mood to be happy?" ?”

Wei Anrong put down his tea, got up and walked to the inner room to sit down, "A person is happy not necessarily because of certain things, but also because of certain people."

Xia Lian stepped forward to take off Wei Anrong's coat, and suddenly understood, "By the way, the Jinxi girl from Yanyu Building was assigned to the file, and Mrs. Meng is too bold to have a private meeting with a maid in the palace." .”

"Xia Lian, it's fine for you to say something in front of this palace, and you must not talk nonsense outside. If someone listens to it, Meng Qiucheng's official career will come to an end."

Xia Lian pursed her lips with displeasure on her face, "Princess, you're still worrying about him at this moment. He doesn't think about who he is, and he doesn't care about your feelings at all."

"Meng Qiucheng, Ben Gong and the emperor are already tied to the same boat. If something happens to him, Ben Gong will naturally have to take care of it. Ben Gong is also pointing him to find the murderer for Ben Gong who killed his mother and concubine! "

"Princess, this servant knows. But you are so kind to him, princess, but he doesn't know how to be grateful. Slave, this servant is not worth it for the princess!"

Wei Anrong sat on the bed, pulled away the thin quilt and lay down, staring at the golden veil on the bed, feeling a bit of bitterness in his heart.Finally sighed, "Whether it's worth it or not, it's so easy to say clearly. I'm tired, so go down and rest!"

Xia Lian watched Wei Anrong turn sideways, and remained silent.Then nodded, gently put down the gold silk veil, and exited the inner room.

As soon as she went out, a little eunuch ran over hastily and whispered something in her ear.Xia Lian looked unhappy, and said coldly, "Where is he?"

The little eunuch hurriedly replied, "It's just outside the hall, the servants can't stop it! If the servants didn't say to come forward and report to the princess, they might have already broken in."

Xia Lian became angrier when she heard this, "There are no rules like this, I really am not afraid of death at all. If it weren't for the princess's kindness, he would have died countless times. Take me out to have a look!"

The little eunuch nodded and led the way ahead, leading Xia Lian to the outside of the hall.

Wearing an official uniform, Meng Qiucheng had just come out of the imperial study, and was on the way to ask Wei Anrong for a favor.Now seeing Xia Lian coming out, she smiled flatteringly, "Sister Xia Lian, is the princess here?"

Xia Lian said unhappily, "The princess is on her lunch break, so I don't see any guests at this time, please go back, Mrs. Meng!"

Then let the little eunuch close the door.

Meng Qiucheng saw that this girl was not very capable, but she had a serious temper.Against her everywhere, I don't know when to offend her.Immediately leaning against the door, he licked his smiling face again and said, "Please tell sister Xia Lian, I really have something to tell the princess."

Xia Lian stared at the little eunuch at the door, "Why are you still standing there? The princess's nap was interrupted, you all just wait to be punished!"

The little eunuch at the door was frightened and hurried forward to close the door.

Seeing that Xia Lian didn't eat oil and salt, Meng Qiucheng also became anxious.Raising his voice, he shouted, "Princess, princess! Your subordinate Meng Qiucheng has something to ask, princess!"

Xia Lian was so angry that she couldn't help it anymore, "Why are you arguing? This is the Qinghe Hall, not the Misty Rain Building. If Master Meng makes another mistake like this, don't blame Xia Lian for being rude even if you are the son-in-law. .”

While the two were tugging, Wei Anrong had already come out wearing a coat, "What are you doing?"

Meng Qiucheng quietly made a face at Xia Lian, slipped in through the crack of the door that was not closed, and rushed to Wei Anrong's side to salute, "Princess, I have something important to do, but Xia Lian won't let me in. Your Majesty The official has no choice but to make loud noises and disturb the princess, and the next official is guilty."

Wei Anrong looked at Xia Lian, Xia Lian lowered her head aggrieved.She shook her head and sighed, "Master Meng is looking for Ben Gong at this time, did you find out about my concubine's death?"

Meng Qiucheng turned his head to look at the door, eyes full of vigilance, "Princess, let's go back to the house and talk!"

Wei Anrong raised his foot and turned around, walked down the hall, and ordered, "Xia Lian, stand guard outside the door."

Xia Lian held back her anger, bent down unwillingly, and said, "Yes!" Then she stood by the door and kicked the flowers and plants in the corner, feeling unhappy for a while.

Wei Anrong and Meng Qiucheng talked in the room for a long time, Xia Lian waited anxiously, so she put her feet on her feet and looked inside, tore off the flowers by the wall with one hand, and muttered, "Shameless."

Meng Qiucheng suddenly opened the door and looked at her, squinting his eyes and smiling, "Sister Xia Lian is saying that who has no shame?"

Xia Lian gasped and was about to blurt out, but seeing Wei Anrong coming out behind her, she choked back. "The servant girl said that there is a cat that always steals food outside. It is shameless. Now I have the nerve to come back to find the master. Sure enough, all these cats are traitors, and none of them are good things."

Meng Qiucheng blinked, and said a little doubtfully, "It seems that this cat is indeed not a good cat."

Wei Anrong glared at Xia Lian, but Xia Lian stopped talking and stood aside without speaking.

Meng Qiucheng cupped his hands and bowed to Wei Anrong, "Princess, I will leave that matter to the princess. Whether it can be done or not is a matter of these days. I disturbed the princess today, and I will come to ask the princess another day. I will leave first."

Wei Anrong nodded, Meng Qiucheng turned and left.

"Princess……"

Just as Xia Lian was about to speak, Wei Anrong interrupted, "Go and tell An Huai to pay more attention to the movement in Jincui Palace these few days, especially that female ghost who cries every night."

After saying this, Xia Lian's body trembled, "Female ghost? The princess is in broad daylight. Why do you mention that kind of thing? It's scary."

"Oh, it's not certain whether it's a ghost or not! If the female ghost is found, the Queen Mother's people must never let it be captured, and let Anhuai bring it directly to the Qinghe Hall."

After Wei Anrong finished speaking, there was a faint worry on his brows, and he was also quite interested in the female ghost Meng Qiucheng was talking about.But as Meng Qiucheng said, that female ghost may not really be a ghost.If not a ghost, then who is it?And why did she stay in Jincui Palace pretending to be a ghost to scare people?

No matter what the reason was, since it was in the Qinghe Hall, it must have something to do with her mother and concubine.

After that, within a few days, rumors spread everywhere in the palace, and even reached the ears of the emperor.

Wei Yuanqi curiously asked Liu Xi who was serving beside him, "The Jincui Palace is haunted by a ghost, but someone saw it with their own eyes? Did this ghost hurt anyone?"

Liu Xi lowered his head and smiled, "It didn't hurt anyone, it just scared a few daughters. Oh, your majesty is a real dragon, and you will run away from any monsters and ghosts when you see them. I think this ghost has feet. Lord."

Wei Yuanqi was taken aback for a moment, "You mean, this ghost is a living person?"

"It's hard to say. In fact, it's not just now that Jincui Palace is haunted. When the emperor was still young, the queen mother ordered people to search Jincui Palace and invited a mage to catch ghosts. But nothing was found. Later, the eunuchs and maids in the palace shunned that place very much, and no one dared to mention it, and no one dared to enter it. The Jincui Palace was abandoned without cleaning it all day long, and everyone got used to it after a long time.

I haven't heard that this ghost has hurt people, but recently, it seems that someone has seen this female ghost.So the rumor spread farther and farther, and the more it spread, the more outrageous it became.But whether this ghost is a real ghost or a fake ghost, no one can say clearly. "

Wei Yuanqi sneered, "In this palace, it's hard to tell the difference between a human and a ghost. There is no difference between real and fake ghosts. But Meng Qiucheng these days, what has he found out?"

Liu Xi hurriedly said, "Back to the emperor, Mr. Meng went to the archives a few days ago, but found nothing. Later, he went to the Qinghe Hall. He hasn't entered the palace for three consecutive days."

"This Meng Qiucheng said some high-sounding words, even I dare to hide them, and I don't know what kind of medicine he sells in this gourd. By the way, what is the name of the woman who danced in the palace last time?"

"Back to the emperor, that woman's name is Jin Xi. Last time Wang Ren'an came to ask some literate maids to go to the file office to help tidy up and clean it, so the servant ordered that woman. Now she has gone to the file office to work. Your Majesty But you want her to serve in the imperial study?"

Wei Yuanqi shook his head, "No, let her stay in the file! Let Wang Ren'an keep an eye on it. As for the matter of Jincui Palace, let Meng Qiucheng investigate. I only look at the results. I want to see, he How dare you fight with the Empress Dowager and those entangled powers in the palace."

Liu Xi thought for a while, then leaned forward and whispered, "Your Majesty, the Empress Dowager has recovered in the past two days, and she seems to be interfering. I'm afraid it will not be easy for Mrs. Meng to find out the cause of Concubine Chen's death in the palace."

"Hmph, my queen mother really has a heart. Liu Xi, pass on my word of mouth. Whoever dares to obstruct Meng Qiucheng's investigation is the murderer back then. I will never tolerate it!"

Liu Xi immediately knelt down, "Yes, the servant is in command."

As the sun was setting in the west, Jin Xi and Lu'er came out from the scroll, and heard a lot of rumors about Jincui Palace.

Lu'er shrank timidly and asked, "Hey, Jin Xi, have you heard?"

Jin Xi looked back at her, Lu'er was young, but she knew a lot.She told herself many things in the palace, this little girl is very clever.

"What did you hear?"

Lu'er saw Jin Xi's unknowing expression, and hurriedly stepped forward to pull Jin Xi, "Jincui Palace is haunted!"

"Is that all?"

"Is that all? How did you put it so easily? Now everyone in the palace is in danger."

"I don't believe in ghosts and gods, and besides, no one has ever seen a ghost." Thinking of what Meng Qiucheng said to her that day, she smiled and shook her head, "There are no ghosts in this world, ghosts are all in people's hearts noodle."

"You can't say that, I'd rather believe it or not, and I heard that several court ladies were in Jincui Palace when they woke up in the middle of the night." Lu'er leaned closer to Jinxi's ear as he spoke, " According to what the person in charge of the palace said, this is Concubine Chen who came to claim her life. She didn't dare to disturb the Emperor and Empress Dowager, so she arrested those maids to vent her anger."

Jin Xi froze, pretending to be surprised, "Who did you hear that from?"

"A lot of people said that, and the maid who was scared was the singer at the music workshop. Everyone said that because the first emperor liked to listen to the concubine Chen's singing the most, and the concubine Chen hated those singers, so those singers suffered. "

Jin Xi didn't wait for her to continue, took her hand, and walked quickly to the maid's room.

"These words, listen to others when they are passed on, and don't talk nonsense. The prince has already given instructions before, and misfortune comes from your mouth. You have to remember it in your heart."

Lu'er smiled honestly, "Jinxi, now it's you who reminded me. Don't talk, let's go, I'm starving to death, it's late, and we can only eat leftovers."

Lu'er took Jin Xi's hand, and quickened her pace towards the maid's room.

That night, something happened in the palace.The emperor was lying on Concubine Dong's bed when he was woken up by Liu Xi.Because this matter was related to Jincui Palace, Meng Qiucheng was summoned into the palace afterwards.

Before entering the palace, Meng Qiuxiang had expected it a long time ago and never took a break.When someone came to the palace, her uneasy mood all night finally settled down.

The author has something to say: Meng Qiucheng: Summer is hot, do you know what I want to do most?

Jin Xi shook his head.

Meng Qiucheng: I want to eat watermelon the most!

Jin Xi: Then eat it!

Meng Qiucheng: But watermelon is not sweet.

Jinxi: Why isn't watermelon sweet?

Meng Qiucheng: Because you are the sweetest in my heart.

Jin Xi held the whip and sneered: What kind of dubious person has Mr. Meng been with recently?

Has become more and more naughty?

Meng Qiucheng trembled and knelt on the ground with a plop: I was wrong, little beauty, it was taught to me by that old and unscrupulous author!
