255 Chapter 255: Give me a face

The ghost's expression suddenly became awkward.

Nan Li gave him a step down at the right time: "Master Guicha is willing to give me face, thank you."

The other people in the room didn't know the truth, and really thought it was a ghost who was exaggerating.

The ghost guard coughed and said, "No...you're welcome! After half a month, you have to send him back to the underworld yourself, anyway, I'm too lazy to make another trip."

After saying that, he waved his sleeve and disappeared without a trace.

Nan Li heaved a sigh of relief, turned her head and said to Xie Beihan: "I will send your father to the underworld in half a month. Recently, let a trustworthy person guard the yard, so as not to leak any news."

Xie Beihan looked at his lifeless father, feeling sad and choked up so that he couldn't speak, so he could only nod his head.

In order not to arouse suspicion from outsiders, Empress Xie and Ye Chengyan had to go back to the palace.

Ye Siheng also returned to Prince Yu's Mansion with Nan Li.

On the way, Nanli asked about the situation of King Rongyang.

Ye Siheng said: "I didn't understand it before. This person is mediocre and has no achievements. How could the father make him king? It turns out that he has made great achievements in fighting the battle."

"It's a great merit to be able to sacrifice your life to suppress the evil spirits." Nanli played with the Ye Mingzhu next to her for a while, and the light reflected her smooth face. Granted a fief, the late emperor was very fair."

Ye Siheng said: "Jiangxia is a rich place, and Emperor Father treats him well. It's just that his situation seems to be much more serious than Zhenbeihou, and he passed away ten years ago. And somehow, he has four sons, but three of them died unexpectedly, and now only one son is left alive.”

Nan Li couldn't help frowning, "The banning circle is so powerful, how can it affect the fate of future generations?"

The same is true of the Zhenbei Hou Mansion.

If she hadn't appeared, Xie Beihan would have died long ago.

Ye Siheng pondered for a moment, and then said: "It's weird to say the least. The national teacher has been in Sitiantai for many years. No matter how big or small he subdues ghosts and evil spirits, he will record them in the book for future generations to read and study. But this is not a small matter. The national teacher actually There is no record."

Nan Li blinked, "You even read Si Tiantai's book?"

Ye Siheng was a little helpless: "I was haunted by the death curse before, so I read the Guoshi's handbook carefully, and wanted to find a way out of it."

As he said that, he couldn't help but shook Nan Li's hand again, his eyes became soft and affectionate.

He was about to give up that day, but her appearance brought a ray of light to his dark world.

Nan Li touched her chin and said: "This matter is not only weird, but also troublesome. The national teacher did not record this matter. We don't know where the evil spirits are sealed, and the seal is not secure."

Ye Siheng said, "I'll send someone to investigate, there should be some clues."

Nan Li snorted, leaned against Ye Siheng's arms, and yawned.

After a day outside, she spent a little more effort, and at this time she was already tired.

His embrace reassured her, and after only a moment, she sank into sleep.

When the carriage arrived at the palace, Ye Siheng didn't wake her up. Instead, he gently hugged her to get off the carriage, and walked steadily into the palace.

Liuli Pavilion, Yuanbao and the others are already used to fetching water and preparing clothes lightly, but they can't interfere with Nanli's grooming.

After taking good care of Nan Li, Ye Siheng went to instruct Qing Feng to investigate what happened back then.

It was dark at night, he went to the bathroom to take a shower and changed into clean clothes before returning to the inner room.

A quiet night.

-

Ten days later, the news came out from Zhenbeihou's mansion that Zhenbeihou was seriously ill.

In a few days, there will be bad news.

The Zhenbei Hou Mansion hung up white lanterns again, completely plain.

No one said that Fan Yunqian's hit was evil, but said that the feng shui of Beihou Mansion in this town is not good. Three people died in two years, and now only one Xie Beihan is left.

But with Empress Xie and Ye Chengyan around, no one dared to say these words publicly.

Xie Beihan worked hard to finish his father's funeral, because he and the people in the house had experience in the past two years, and he didn't make any mistakes, which made him feel a little ridiculous.

After it was settled, the imperial court issued a decree to allow him to inherit the marquis, and made Fan Yunqian the second-rank wife.

Xie Beihan accepted the order and thanked him a little dullly, without any joy on his face.

He has never cared about these meritorious titles. If possible, he would rather his father be safe.

The eunuch who delivered the decree saw that he was still in a daze, and his face darkened.

But Fan Yunqian had already made a look and asked the servant girl to stuff a purse into the eunuch, and said, "Please trouble father-in-law to make this trip."

The eunuch grabbed the money bag and had estimated how much money was in it. He immediately smiled, "Madam, you are welcome."

He thought to himself, that this dude new marquis was able to marry such a wife, it is really a meritorious deed in his previous life.

The eunuch who passed the decree was sent away, and then the guests came again.

It was Chu Shuo and Nan Li.

Seeing the two of them, Xie Beihan finally regained his energy.

"Why are you here?" He said, "Everyone outside is saying that my fate is bad. I killed my younger brother and stepmother, and now I'm killing my own father."

No one dares to come to the Zhenbeihou's Mansion now, they are all afraid of causing bad luck.

Chu Shuo frowned slightly, feeling sorry for his good brother.

Who would have thought that Nanli took a sip of her tea, and said slowly, "Is your fate unlucky, I wouldn't know? What's more, these words were originally spread by you, so don't worry about it."

Fan Yunqian happened to come in with a pastry, and she couldn't help but pause when she heard this.

She glanced at Xie Beihan, her thoughts moved slightly.

After delivering the pastries, she withdrew without disturbing the conversation of the three of them.

Xie Beihan waited for her to leave before he said angrily, "Sixth sister, do I still have a secret in front of you?"

"It's the empress who knew there were rumors outside, so she asked the prince to check it out, and it found you." Nan Li said, "But the empress and the prince both said that you have grown up, so they treat you differently." gone."

Chu Shuo pondered for a while before he understood the meaning.

He looked at the door, and a look of surprise flashed in his eyes: "Beihan, I never thought you would be such a man."

Xie Beihan glared at him: "Nonsense, when will I not be a man."

"It seems that you have Mrs. Sister-in-law in your heart." Chu Shuo sighed.

Xie Beihan felt awkward, and explained: "My father facilitated this marriage, and I never told her the truth. I just feel ashamed and don't want her to be wronged."

Now that he has become the real lord of the Hou Mansion, it was found out after investigation that it was the guard who followed him to Ruyang City who wrote the report, so his father knew it clearly and immediately settled the marriage.

He couldn't bear to apologize to Fan Yunqian, so he could only do things silently from other aspects.

After Nanli heard this, she knew that Xie Beihan was very good at planning.

In this way, she was relieved, not afraid that Fan Yunqian's life in the capital would be difficult.

"Then let's talk about the business." Nan Li said seriously, "My lord has checked carefully, and the other person holding the battle was King Rongyang. He passed away many years ago, and now only one of his four sons is alive, and he is still suffering from a serious illness. .”
