Chapter 212 Entering the palace to report

At this time, Cang Yue, who was watching the night in the palace, seemed to have heard the noise outside, and came out quietly, seeing Cai Ling here late at night, she couldn't help being slightly startled, "What are you doing here?"

Seeing that Cang Yue was also there, Cai Ling recalled that Concubine Qi would be attending her bed tonight, so she couldn't help but back off, but if the emperor cannot be invited, and concubine Shang Gui can't be sent to Suhe Palace, the princess will be in danger.

Cang Yue walked over and looked at Cai Ling's expression, "You have always acted in a proper manner, coming here in the middle of the night must be something urgent, please speak quickly, don't delay the matter."

"No, tell me quickly!" Eunuch Xi urged, frowning, "Did something happen to the princess?"

Cai Ling heard this, and immediately said with a sad face: "Elder-in-law, elder sister Cang Yue, the princess has met a ghost."

"What?" Eunuch Xi and Cang Yue were both startled, and Eunuch Xi reacted first, angrily scolded: "Nonsense, where is there a ghost in this palace? It's all rumors. If you wake up the emperor because of this, you will be killed." Just wait to lose your head!"

Cailing's eye circles turned red suddenly, and she knelt down in front of Eunuch Xi with a plop, "Eunuch, I'm serious, Suhe Palace is really haunted, princess, princess was caught by Concubine Yun, saying that she wanted to honor your concubine , I have already gone to Ningfu Palace, but the people in Ningfu Palace said that Concubine Shang Gui had fallen asleep, and her feet were grounded, and she couldn't get out without the emperor's order. There is no other way, so I came to the emperor."

Hearing this, Cang Yue frowned and looked at Eunuch Xi, "Before I heard that Ningfu Palace was haunted by ghosts, and then Concubine Ru also said to see ghosts, and now it is Suhe Palace, could it be that the ghost of Concubine Yun really came out? "

In fact, Eunuch Xi also believed in the theory of ghosts, but the upper body of a ghost is too ridiculous. He looked at Cai Ling, "You said that the concubine Yun was on the princess's body and asked to see the noble concubine? Then what did she say? She said Is she Concubine Yun?"

Cailing said: "Today is my vigil. In the past, the princess let me sleep outside the palace, but tonight she asked me to watch her in the palace. She said she had a headache. I saw her restless, and I really thought she was I was sick, so I stayed in the palace and waited for her to fall asleep before I went to sleep. Unexpectedly, I was awakened in the middle of the night. After waking up, I saw the princess sitting in front of the dressing table to make up. The clothes she was wearing were given to Yun by the emperor. The imperial concubine’s golden phoenix robe, hasn’t that robe been placed in the warehouse all the time? Then, she asked the servant to go to the concubine Shang, saying that she had some matters to settle with the concubine. If the servant did not go, after dawn, the princess You will be out of your wits."

When Cai Ling said these words, her whole body trembled, especially her lips trembled so much that her voice changed tone. Seeing her like this, Xi Gonggong knew that she was not lying, she was really frightened.

He looked at Cai Ling, "Are you sure she's wearing a golden phoenix robe?"

"I'm sure, I've seen Concubine Yun wear that robe several times, and I recognize it." Cailing was afraid that Eunuch Xi would not believe her, so she hurriedly gestured to describe it, "The skirt of that robe is very long, like a phoenix's tail, and the whole body Embroider gold thread, cover the original color, surround the peonies with hundreds of flowers, and then surround the golden phoenix with peonies."

After hearing her description, Eunuch Xi no longer had doubts, but he frowned and said: "Our family had seen that robe a few days ago, took it out to dry, how could it be at the princess's side?"

Cailing stomped anxiously, "Hey, father-in-law, Concubine Yun took it. Concubine Yun is dead. She is a ghost. Why can't she get it? Don't worry about it. Concubine Yun said that it will be returned at dawn." If you don't get away from the princess, the princess will die."

Hearing this, Cang Yue also looked at Eunuch Xi, a little anxious, "Eunuch, in my opinion, we should report to the emperor quickly, otherwise, if something happens to the princess, we can't afford it."

Eunuch Xi pondered for a while, and said: "Cai Ling, you wait here, our family will report to the emperor now."

"Okay, father-in-law, hurry up!" Cailing breathed a sigh of relief, but still seemed a little nervous.

Eunuch Xi turned and went in, Cang Yue looked at Cai Ling, seeing her shivering from the cold, she couldn't help saying: "Cai Ling, although you used to be the concubine of Shang Gui, but you also sincerely treat the princess."

Cailing forced a smile, "I'm the princess's side now, and I'll be fine only if the princess is good."

"It's good that you know how to think like this." Cang Yue said.

After hearing this, Cai Ling was slightly taken aback, looked at Cang Yue, and guessed whether she was inquiring or sincerely persuading her.

"Thank you, I know how to do it." Cai Ling said, looking at her warily.

Cang Yue smiled, "You don't have to be so nervous, I don't know how to eat people."

Cai Ling looked at her complicatedly, and felt that she seemed to be a different person. She used to always feel that she was by Concubine Qi's side. Although she was not overbearing, it was also difficult to get high, especially since she used to be Concubine Shang's person It can be said that the people who are princesses are all hostile to Concubine Qi, so she subconsciously regards Cang Yue as an enemy, but her kind smile now makes her realize that they are standing on the same line people, not opposites.

Eunuch Xi entered the palace and sent out the two maids who were guarding the night. The two maids were a little surprised, but they tiptoed out without asking.

With the curtain hanging down, Eunuch Xi stood about three feet away from the bed, and softly called: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty..."

The emperor didn't answer at first, but after Eunuch Xi called a few times, there was a movement on the bed, it was Concubine Qi's voice, Concubine Qi got up in her clothes, lifted the curtain and landed, seeing Eunuch Xi standing outside, she couldn't help frowning and walked away In the past, he lowered his voice and said: "The emperor is asleep, what's the matter?"

Eunuch Xi quickly apologized, and then said: "Cai Ling said that something happened to Suhe Palace."

"What's the matter?" Concubine Qi Gui was very displeased when she heard that it was about Su Hegong's affairs, "Is there anything that we can't talk about tomorrow?"

"The situation is urgent, please forgive me!" Eunuch Xi knew that Concubine Qi had blamed her. After all, the opportunity to serve the bed is not common, and if someone ruined it, he would always be angry.

Concubine Qi said coldly: "Hurry up and get out, if there is anything urgent, we will talk about it tomorrow."

At this time, the emperor's sleepy and hoarse voice sounded on the bed, "What's the matter?"

Eunuch Xi was overjoyed, and hurried over, "Your Majesty, this slave is guilty of disturbing the emperor's sleep."

The emperor sat up, put on a piece of clothing and came out. Seeing Eunuch Xi in the hall, he frowned and asked, "What's going on? What happened?"

Eunuch Xi hurriedly knelt down, "Your Majesty, Cai Ling from Suhe Palace came to report that something happened to the princess."

"What happened?" The emperor's face changed, and his sleepy eyes widened suddenly, "What happened?"

Eunuch Xi hesitated for a moment, and said: "Go back to the emperor, Cai Ling said, Su Hegong met a ghost."

"Ridiculous!" Concubine Qi scolded angrily, "Why do you think it's such an absurd thing that you dare to disturb the emperor's sleeping?"
