The Evil King's Crazy Wife: The World of Ghost Concubine

Chapter 494 Looking Through Ancient Books
In Qingwan Palace, Hongluan was still flipping through the books, she carefully read the sorcery recorded on it, she was also puzzled, and she got some clues.

It was already late at night, and Ning Yu couldn't help but stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, it's already late, or we can watch it tomorrow."

Hongluan shook her head: "This book is almost finished, and it's not too late to rest after reading it."

Ningyu sighed, and said: "Madam, Ningyu really doesn't know what to say to you, Madam Ruipin has never dealt with you, why do you still want to help her?"

Hongluan put down the book: "Ningyu, do you think I'm helping Empress Rui?"

"Is not it?"

"Of course not." Hong Luan said with a slight smile: "Although this matter is about Rui Concubine, I don't care about Rui Concubine. You can't sleep peacefully about the matter of your empress, so I want to understand this case as soon as possible, so that the emperor can have a good rest."

Ning Yu nodded clearly: "It turns out that the empress did this for the sake of the emperor, and this servant understands."

Hongluan sighed: "Last time the emperor suffered from the wind and cold, although the cough stopped, but I always feel that the emperor's body is not as good as before, and it is time for him to recuperate and sleep well, but concubine Rui happened to be here. Regarding the matter of the empress, I am worried that he will suffer from the wind and cold again, so what should I do?" Just as he was speaking, the emperor's laughter came from outside.

It turned out that after the emperor fell asleep with Concubine Rui, he couldn't fall asleep after tossing and turning, so he simply put on his clothes and went to Qingwan Palace. When he came in, he saw that her bedroom was still lit with candles, so he told the maids not to come out. He wanted to give her a surprise, but he heard the conversation between the master and the servant outside the door. He was moved, so he stood outside and listened quietly.

Sure enough, he didn't love this woman in vain, the emperor thought so, and pushed the door open.

Ningyu immediately blessed her body and greeted the emperor, and Hongluan also got up to greet her. Before she could salute, she asked the emperor to help her up.

She was surprised and said, "Why is the emperor not resting so late?"

The emperor smiled and said, "Didn't you rest too? I couldn't sleep without you by my side, so I came to see you. Who knew that I just grabbed your pigtail, right?"

"Where is it?"

"No? Then what were you talking about with your maid just now? Aren't you talking bad about me?"

Hongluan broke away from his hand, turned around and became unhappy: "So in the eyes of the emperor, the concubine is a woman who gossips behind people's backs, so why does the emperor come in, just turn around and go out, Yanhua The palace is next door, and the emperor will be there in two steps."

When the emperor heard this, he laughed even more heartily: "It turns out that my concubine is also jealous. I have always followed my wishes, and I thought you didn't care about me at all." Then, the emperor pulled her Sitting down on the stool with her hand: "I heard what you said to Ningyu just now, my concubine, you are so kind to me, but I still doubt your sincerity. I am wrong, and I should be punished."

Hongluan laughed loudly: "Okay, this is what the emperor himself said, then punish the emperor to sleep on the ground tonight, not to sleep on the bed."

The emperor was taken aback, and immediately agreed with a smile: "Okay, I will sleep on the floor."

Just as De'an was about to say something, the emperor stopped him with his gaze. He pinched Hongluan's nose dotingly, and then looked at the ancient book on the table: "What are you reading?"

Hongluan withdrew her hand, picked up the book and opened it: "The concubine is studying sorcery. Your Majesty, the concubine has been reading it all day, and thinks that the matter of the concubine Rui may be related to the fragrance of the corpse."

"Corpse scent?"

"Yes, look, your majesty, it's this kind of sorcery, because it must be extracted from pregnant women, so corpse fragrance is particularly resentful to pregnant women. Once it is wrapped around, it will be painful. And because It is extracted from corpses, so it has a heavy yin energy, which is why Empress Ruipin's stomach is very cold."

The emperor shook his head: "I didn't expect that I just casually told you Concubine Rui's symptoms, and you memorized them all, and said that I didn't care about Concubine Rui, Hongluan, you just have a soft-spoken mouth and a soft-hearted heart."

Hong Luan's face turned red: "Your Majesty, my concubine already has a good memory, so it has nothing to do with Empress Rui Concubine."

"You don't need to say more, I know, you don't want people to suspect, that's why you act like you don't care, don't worry, in this harem, with me protecting you, no one dares to do anything to you."

Hong Luan nodded movedly, and then returned to the topic: "Your Majesty, the effect of corpse fragrance has many similarities with the symptoms of Empress Rui, so my concubine suspects that it is the corpse fragrance. , but dogs or other animals with sensitive noses can smell it, Chenqie thinks, when searching, maybe you can bring a few dogs to try, maybe you will find something."

The emperor nodded in a deep voice: "Okay, let's do it according to Aifei's idea, De'an, you can make arrangements now, and start tomorrow, and then conduct a thorough investigation."

"The old slave knows." De'an immediately retreated to deal with matters, and Ningyu also wanted to go out, but Hongluan stopped her and asked her to prepare the bedding.

The emperor complained again and again: "Aifei really has the heart to let me sleep on the ground?"

"Your majesty, this is what you agreed with your concubine, and you cannot go back on your word."

The emperor nodded helplessly: "Okay, okay, I don't regret it, I absolutely don't regret it." Since he agreed to come down, the emperor had nothing to say, let Ningyu lay the floor and lay down like this.

Hongluan also went to lie down on the bed, but she didn't fall asleep. After a while, the emperor thought she was asleep, but she suddenly asked, "Your Majesty, are you asleep?"

The emperor turned over and faced the bed: "Why isn't Aifei still asleep?"

"Then why doesn't the emperor sleep?"

"I can't sleep, you go to sleep first, don't worry about me."

Hongluan sat up, sighed and said: "Your Majesty, it's cold on the ground, you'd better come up and sleep."

The emperor smiled: "Didn't Aifei say that you want me to sleep on the ground? Now that I'm sleeping on the ground, you want me to come up to sleep?"

Hong Luan was not happy: "The emperor knows how to make fun of the concubines, that's all, anyway, the concubines have already said what they should say, whether the emperor wants to come up is the emperor's business, and the concubines can't control it."

There was no way the emperor was still lying on the ground. It was freezing cold and the ground was always humid. He wanted to go to bed a long time ago.

With the warm and fragrant nephrite in his arms, the emperor was instantly satisfied, and soon fell asleep.

Perhaps it was because he hadn't had a good night's sleep for a long time, the emperor fell asleep as soon as he got on the bed, Hong Luan narrowed his eyes, a fierce light flashed in his eyes, and finally hid it perfectly, closed his eyes and fell asleep.
