Concubine Li didn't really come to see her, but the other high-ranking concubines were here. It wouldn't be nice if she didn't come, and the emperor would think she was petty.
After being stopped outside the door, she didn't even get off the sedan chair. She asked La Yue to give the tonic to Magpie and then returned to her palace.
Jiang Zhaoyi and the emperor visited during the day, and now she came over as usual and gave Jiang Xinyue some medicinal materials before leaving.
In the evening, the lamp was held in Jiang Zhaoyi's palace, and the emperor did not come to wash the lotus palace.
Shuang Jiang was still a little disappointed because of this: "Didn't the Emperor say that he would come to see our master later? Why did he go to Jiang Zhaoyi's palace?"
"The Emperor is free to go wherever he goes. You just have to say this in front of me. If I hear you say it outside, I won't be able to spare you."
Jiang Xinyue rarely lost her temper, so the first time she scolded Shuangsheng, she seemed very majestic.
She took the opportunity to say to the palace maids and eunuchs who were waiting inside: "I have a good temper, but that is when you are not doing anything wrong. If I were to know that any of you are gossiping about the masters' rights and wrongs outside, you will be implicated to the extent of washing the house." He Dian, don’t blame me for not reminding you, even if such a slave is beaten to death, I will not save you, do you understand?”
"Slave doesn't dare."
"I don't dare, slave."
"Everyone, get down!"
It would be better if Emperor Xuanwu didn't come!
Jiang Xinyue was too lazy to pretend to be weak, so she lay on the bed and let Magpie and Shuangjiang serve her. The palaces did not dare to neglect her. They provided her with delicious food and drinks, and her life was endless.
Seven days have passed by in a flash, and today is Jiang Cainu's first seven days.
It was true that she was frightened, but she was not so frightened that she fainted. Jiang Xinyue was just too lazy to deal with the women in the harem. If she was fine and nothing happened, there would probably be many basins of dirty water waiting to be poured on her.
That's why she pretended to be overly frightened. The doctors at the imperial hospital have been dealing with women in the harem all year round, and they have long been human beings. They know what to say and what not to say.
Besides, Jiang Xinyue didn't lie, she just exaggerated a little.
Jiang Yutong hanged himself while wearing bright red clothes. Jiang Zhaoyi said it was because he came back for revenge during the first seven days.
Therefore, Jiang Xinyue pretended to be sick for seven days.
She wanted to see who would pretend to be a ghost to scare her.
In the past seven days, Emperor Xuanwu went to Concubine Li for two nights, and to Concubine De and Concubine Liang for one night each. Among the group of beautiful ladies who entered the palace with Jiang Xinyue, there was another Su noble from the seventh rank. The emperor was in her I also rested there for two nights. There was no sign-turning for the other night, so the emperor slept alone in Chengqian Palace.
Although I didn’t come to wash the lotus palace, I would be rewarded with a plate of cakes, a bouquet of lotus flowers, and a piece of clothing every now and then...
Therefore, although Su Guiren's popularity has been surpassing Zhen Ronghua's in the past few days, the palaces still dare not neglect her.
The dark night was gloomy, and even the moon hid in the clouds. The wind outside howled coldly, and from time to time you could hear the rustling of the leaves.
Suddenly a black shadow passed by the window, but the silence outside was terrifying, as if the darkness was about to swallow everything.
"call--"
A gust of wind blew open the windows of the dormitory, and all the candles in the lanterns were blown out. Only the lanterns under the eaves at the door revealed a few faint lights.
Magpie and Shuangjiang were so frightened that they hugged each other and closed their eyes tightly, not daring to open them at all.
Their master said, close your eyes when you are afraid, and she will take care of all the monsters and monsters.
The maids and eunuchs of Xihe Palace were ordered not to go out tonight, and their master wanted to catch the ghost himself.
"Dang!"
Suddenly, in a gust of cold wind, a female ghost with disheveled hair, red clothes and a white face hung upside down from the window.
Shuangjiang couldn't help but opened his eyes, and was immediately frightened out of his wits. He closed his eyes again, shook his head and shouted: "Ah! Ahhhhh...ah! Ahhhhh...ghost..."
The magpie couldn't help but secretly opened one eye. She didn't scream, but she was so frightened that her face turned pale and her eyes widened.
Jiang Xinyue said "cut", rolled her eyes, stepped forward, grabbed the "female ghost" and threw it to the ground. It turned out to be just a fake cloth man.
This female ghost is too fake, far worse than the scary haunted house Jiang Xinyue played in later generations.
She was chasing the real NPC in the haunted house. Players in the major haunted houses blacklisted her, and she was a terrifying existence who knelt down with the female ghost NPC and begged to be let go.
This little trick is really not enough.
Shuangsheng's cry stopped. She looked at Jiang Xinyue and then at the "female ghost" on the ground, feeling as if some faith was collapsing in her heart.
Where is the delicate beauty we promised?
"Uh-huh!"
There was another black shadow behind him, and a female ghost's voice came: "Sister... I died so miserably~ You came down to accompany me~ Ahhhhhhh..."
Before the female ghost could finish her words, Jiang Xinyue quickly pushed open the window, grabbed her by the throat, and dragged her in from the rope hanging from the window.
"Magpie, light the lamp!"
Candles were lit in the room, and the female ghost on the ground showed a shadow that only a living person could have, hiding away so that no one could see her face clearly.
Shuangjiang and Magpie held her down, pushed her hair away, and screamed in surprise: "Hongxi? Why is it you?"
Hongxi in Chu Jieyu's palace was already an abandoned chess piece.
"Crunch——"
The door of the dormitory was pushed open, and Emperor Xuanwu appeared at the door with a solemn expression: "Wang Dequan, go and invite the queen to come over. By the way, go to Changchun Palace and bring Chu Jieyu with you."
Jiang Xinyue dropped Hong Xi and ran over to throw herself into Emperor Xuanwu's arms: "The emperor has not come to see my concubine for so long. Did he forget about my concubine?"
Emperor Xuanwu hugged her slender waist back: "You little heartless child, if I forget you, why would I ask Wang Dequan to give you something every day?"
He didn't come because he wanted the murderer to relax his vigilance, thinking that he no longer cared about Zhen Ronghua, so that he could attack Xihe Palace unscrupulously.
Jiang Xinyue could guess what he was thinking, so she wasn't really angry. She was just acting coquettishly and making a small show.
"I see that my beloved concubine is very courageous and dares to catch ghosts with her bare hands."
He and Wang Dequan came to the Xihe Palace with their guards early to guard, and as expected, they saw five or six eunuchs and maids dressed as female ghosts in red sneaking into the Xihe Palace.
He originally thought that he could heroically save the beauty and make this little girl's admiration for him rise to the next level.
Unexpectedly, she was not afraid at all, but looked very "brave", which gave Emperor Xuanwu a new understanding of her.
Jiang Xinyue raised her eyebrows proudly and said a little arrogantly: "Concubines and concubines don't believe in any talk about gods and ghosts. Even if there are really ghosts in this world, how can they dare to show up in the palace? The emperor is the real dragon emperor, It can shock all the demons and monsters in the world. I don’t believe in ghosts, so naturally there are people pretending to be gods, so what’s there to be afraid of?”
This flattery was a slap in the heart of Emperor Xuanwu.
