It’s hard to break a phoenix’s destiny

Chapter 403 Ghosts are rampant in Luoyang Palace

Sima Yue was startled by the child's voice and shouted: "Who is it? Who is there?"

The dark shadow on the curtain disappeared in a flash.

The guards and palace people who heard the commotion ran in. Lin, the concubine who was serving Sima Yue that day, took the underwear that Sima Yue had changed to starch and washed, and left for a while. At this time, everyone was seen heading towards Sima Yue's palace. As he ran away, she immediately followed him.

Sima Yue threw himself from the bed to the ground, pointed at the curtain of the bed with trembling teeth and shouted "Ahhhhh", but his lower body was already incontinent.

The guards and palace people wanted to help him up, but Mrs. Lin shouted and asked everyone to move away. She unfolded the sheets to cover Sima Yue's incontinence and dirt, and then grabbed Sima Yue's hands and pressed them. I checked his pulse and found that his pulse was still strong, but he was just shocked.

Lin knew a little about medical skills and knew that it was not appropriate to ask Sima Yue what he saw at this time, but to give him a quiet and warm environment to relax his mind. So he asked everyone to leave, saying that the prince just had a nightmare and needed some soothing soup.

Naturally, everyone did not dare to neglect and filed out. Some people also went to prepare the soothing soup.

Mrs. Lin asked Sima Yue to sit on the ground to calm down, then helped him up and sat beside the bed. At this time, Sima Yue also understood and told Mrs. Lin about the "ghost" he had just seen and the "ghost voice" he heard. Mrs. Lin rummaged through the curtains and checked the situation in the palace. , confirmed to be empty. She comforted him with kind words, and helped him drink the soothing soup and fall asleep.

Everyone thought it was just a nightmare due to illness, but three days later, Sima Yue started shouting again, saying that a ghost appeared on the curtain again. This time, it was the ghost who kept stretching out his hands and blocking his own neck, as if he wanted to spit something out.

Huang, who was serving him, was very frightened and reported it to Concubine Pei.

Concubine Pei was very irritated because some officials suggested that Ji Feiyan's "sacrificial burial" was not in line with etiquette. Moreover, her father Ji Shao also protected the late emperor Sima Zhong with his life, so some compensation should be given to Ji Feiyan and Ji Shao.

She became even more annoyed when she heard that Sima Yue's condition not only did not improve, but also talked nonsense. He also called Ms. Lin in front of her and scolded her, asking her why she didn't tell her about this earlier.

Lin felt aggrieved and after crying a lot, she hanged herself.

This made the Xianzhang palace miserable, and no one dared to say another word.

Concubine Pei clenched her fists, moved into Sima Yue's palace, and personally took care of his daily life. But from that day on, there were no more ghosts to disturb her, and the palace became quiet. Sima Yue also took the decoction on time and recovered quickly.

At this time, Sima Yue was very grateful to Concubine Pei for everything she had done, and never mentioned the matter of divorcing his wife again. He even gave Concubine Pei a brand new set of gold hairpins to show his love. Concubine Pei is already sixty years old and has taken a dim view of many things. She knew that this was just Sima Yue's attempt to please her and ask her to recognize one of these concubines as his legitimate son and become the future heir apparent to inherit his position as prince.

She did not refuse immediately, saying that she wanted to think about and examine these sons again. Of course, she also asked Sima Yue to return to the court as soon as possible because there were many political affairs in the court, while she herself had to spend some time doing some cleaning.

Who would have thought that on the afternoon when she left the palace to go to Hongguang Temple to practice meditation, Sima Yue was sitting in the study reading a book, when suddenly dark clouds gathered, the sky became dark, and another heavy rain poured down. Just when he was about to turn on the candle a little brighter, he suddenly heard a man's voice, "Sima Yue, you poisoned me to death, are you still in the mood to read here?"

This was so frightening that Sima Yue jumped up and searched around the study room like crazy for several times, but he didn't see anyone. But when he sat back at his desk, he saw the word "Go" written on the paper he was about to sign. He fell backwards and fell unconscious.

This kind of ghostly things always spread very quickly. Almost everyone in the palace knew about it, and more and more people spread the rumor that the late emperor Sima Zhong came back to ask for Sima Yue's life.

In the pouring rain, Concubine Pei hurried back to the palace. I just happened to encounter the new emperor Sima Chi holding the edict conferring Yang Xianrong as Queen Hui, and asked Sima Yue again to get his seal. Naturally, Sima Yue hadn't woken up yet, so Concubine Pei wanted to throw the jade seal to Sima Chi without thinking, and let him handle the government affairs by himself. She called everyone from the Imperial Hospital to Xianzhang Palace to treat Sima Yue.

After Sima Chi covered the jade seal, he asked Queen Liang to go to Jinyong City first. Because the rain was so heavy, he didn't want to go out at all. But just two hours after Empress Liang went out, she heard that the maid who had served Ji Feiyan in Xianzhang Palace committed suicide. Someone saw her first kowtowing wildly in Ji Feiyan's room, then holding the child's clothes and washing them all the time. She didn't feel any pain even though her hands were bleeding. Then he plunged into the well and drowned.

Another life occurred, and everyone in the palace began to panic.

The more Sima Chi thought about it, the more scared he became, and he did not dare to stay in the palace. He thought that Zhenren Xu was in Jinyong City and he should be approached to drive away ghosts or something. It might also be effective. Therefore, he rushed to Jinyong City regardless of the heavy rain.

After finishing the general story, Yang Xianrong didn't know what to say. Her left hand gently grasped her right wrist, and the pain from Sima Zhong's grasp was still there.

She was silent for a moment before saying, "What kind of ghost is there in this world? If the late emperor is really back, shouldn't he look for me first? Am I not the person he can't let go of the most?"

"Is there nothing unusual here, Queen Hui?" Sima Chi asked.

"No." Yang Xianrong shook his head, his eyes a little sad.

"How about... you go back to the palace." Sima Chi said again.

Yang Xianrong immediately shook his head, "I just told the queen that we should wait until next spring and the flowers bloom. My heart aches when I think of the Luoyang Palace. How can I live back there? It's full of memories of the late emperor and me. I can't bear it." She wiped the corners of her eyes with her sleeves, looking so pitiful that Sima Chi was a little stunned.

Liang Lanbi coughed slightly and then said: "Queen Hui said the same thing, so can you please ask Master Xu to go to the palace and have a look?"

"Do you want him to exorcise demons and exorcise the late emperor?"

Yang Xianrong's words were so resentful that Liang Lanbi was so frightened that she quickly shook her head and waved her hands and said, "I didn't mean that, I really didn't."

"I'm not trying to embarrass you... you can go and ask Master Xu yourself." Yang Xianrong sighed, "He is brewing medicine in Huayang Palace in the back. I have been suffering from heart palpitations recently, and I need to take some of it." Prepared medicine.”

"Queen Hui, please pay more attention to your health." Sima Chi's concerned gaze did not seem to be fake, but Yang Xianrong felt very uncomfortable.
