A Guest in a Ghost House Chapter 126

The Queen wasn't a human . Yeah, I also agreed with this, because it was impossible for a human being to rub the face against a decomposed head, as if she regarded it as her lover . Even if I got in touch with all kinds of ghosts every day, I couldn't still stand this, not to mention Rani Xian .

But hadn't Rani Xian become a ghost? For revenge, even if it was very disgusting, she could try to bear this, and then she could avenge successfully . Why didn't do it? However, I didn't ask her, because I didn't think it would be appropriate to ask a woman such a question .

“Sir, please help us . We all die with injustice . ” her tone became very sad and she knew that her death was a good thing, then I thought I must help Rani Xian . On the one hand, I felt the Queen really made me very disgusted, on the other hand, if I helped Rani Xian successfully, her ghost Qi would dissipated . Then there was just her obessesion left, which was a good thing for us .

“Dear Rani Xian, how do you want me to help you?” I was now in the illusion and I actually didn't know how to help her, but it probably was not as easy as just to stab the Queen twice .

“Sir, there is something you don't know . There is a bone buried under the gates of the north city of the imperial city . As long as you can take out the bones and hold a grand funeral, I will be very grateful to you . Then in the latter things, there's no need to trouble you, Sir . ”

This was a simple request, but whose body was it? Rani Xian or the second prince? No, it was impossible . Didn't they say their bones were sealed in the dry well? However, I didn't care, and no matter whose body that was, as long as I could help Rani Xian get rid of her ghost Qi, that was okay and the process was not important .

Just there should always be many bodyguards guarding the gate . Even if they couldn't see me, anyone who saw the soil splashing on the ground, would not turn a blind eye to it .

I originally wanted to ask her for something, but I was afraid to affect my image of a master in front of her, and also afraid that new problems would crop up unexpectedly . Therefore, I had to promise her first . I thought I could dig bones carefully in the middle of the night, which might not attract too much attention . After all, all the guards might be on the wall and the gates might be closed, because I thought nobody would hide in the dark entrance of city gate .

After giving my word to her, I left . I should dig the bones in the midnight, and before that, I had to find out where the north city gate was, and before I could find the north city gate, I had to find out where to leave the Imperial Palace .

After leaving the dry well, I took a few turns in the Palace, and the houses were everywhere in front of my eyes . Then, after I looked at these people round, I guessed that I haven't even left the Imperial Harem yet . I followed several eunuchs and maids along the way . Unfortunately, there was not one road that could lead me out of here . After walking for some time, I finally found I returned to a familiar place .

That was the Queen's Sleeping Palace . Oh my God! This was the last place I want to come to . There was no danger, but every time I thought of the Queen, I couldn't help but to feel terribly sick .

The queen seemed to be absent . There were few people in the Sleeping Palace and just were several eunuchs and maids in the Palace . Therefore, I casually ate some snacks in one of the Side Palace . Then I kept up with a maid who was in a hurry, because I heard the maid and others say that they were going to bring soup to the Emperor .

Now I was not in the mood to see what the Emperor looked like, but I knew one thing, that the the place in which the Emperor was must be near the gate of the Imperial Palace, because there was no possibility that these officials went through most of the Imperial Palace to go to court .

The maid walked very fast, but also very stably, and the soup on her hand also didn't spill out . She seemed to be really familiar with the Imperial Palace . After a few turns, I saw a huge square . Then it occurred to me that I had been here and it was not long after I entered the palace gate . It seemed that I had not followed the wrong person this time .

I stopped, and instead of following the maid who was apparently heading for the buildings, I just waited in the square . Several officials with government-clad were whispering from a distance and I thought they apparently were about to leave Imperial Palace .

When they passed me by, and I quickly followed them . It wasn't long before I saw the door that I passed through when I first entered the Imperial Palace . Since I thought these officials walked very slowly, I then wanted to get out of here quickly . However, the words of these officials made my steps slow down .

“The Queen is so pitiful . ”

“Isn't she? She also goes mad, but there are rumors about her everywhere, Ah . ”

“But the emperor also can't help it . The general is still out of the country, and he will turn back in February, but Rani Xian is dead now . If the truth is told out, If you tell the truth again, I guess the general . . . Maybe only the queen can be wronged . ”

“Oh . ”

I followed several officials out of Imperial Palace, but instead of looking for the north gate, I found a place on the side of the palace and just sat down . There was in a mess in my head . What f**k? They even thought Queen was pitiful and aggrieved . What was this plot?

The formation of resentment must be the result of being wronged . Obviously, Rani Xian didn't tell the truth because it was impossible to get ghost Qi after a long time . To be honest, the Queen's image in my mind was very poor, and I also didn't believe what the officials said in my heart .

However, now my judgment was too important . Once my judgment was wrong, it was not just me, it was estimated that even Wu Jian, Sister Hua and other people couldn't escape the death . Therefore, it seemed that I still needed to delve into this matter, and I couldn't make a blind decision .

After thinking about it for a while, I planned to go into the Palace and came to the Emperor, who might be able to know part of the truth . At least, I could judge whether those officials were lying .

The I got up and came back to the Palace . I directly went along the most spacious road and I thought it could be the road that the hundreds of officials took when they went up to court . Besides, there was only one road and could be no risk of going wrong .

I dared not go too far . Just taking the hall, where officials went to the court, as the center, I searched slowly . It was only a moment before the Emperor was found by me, because the eunuch's voice of urging the emperor to eat was so loud and it was impossible that it couldn't attract my attention .

I went over and found this was a side palace and it looked like the place where the Emperor had a rest, and it also had a very tight security, but it was useless in my eyes .

The door of the hall was open, and when I came to the door, I saw a middle-aged man in a yellow robe, with a gaunt face, lying oblique on the bench, with an eunuch, who worn a brocade, kneeling in front of him, holding a bowl high in his hand and urging the Emperor to eat something .

I walked in and found a corner to stand in . These people couldn't hear me and I also could ask them . I also didn't think I could ask, otherwise many guards, masters or someone else would come to encircle me . The only way to know the truth was to wait for the Emperor to speak himself .

Obviously, the emperor didn't mean to say anything . After waving his hand to show himself that he wouldn't eat, he picked up a pile of memorials and began to read them . I just stood beside him . From my point of view, I could clearly see that the emperor's eyes did not focus on these memorials, but on the top of them, with empty eyes . I guessed he was absent-minded .

The eunuch, motioned by the emperor, did not leave, but still knelt there, holding the bowl still and looking at the emperor from time to time, which looked as if he was very worried .

He really was a loyal eunuch .

After standing for a while, I couldn't stand it any more and just sat down on one of the chairs beside me . There was a lot of delicious food on the next table and I was also very hungry . However, there were many people in the hall, so I dared not eat these food, and just stayed here foolishly .

I imitated the Emperor and was also absent-mind there . Just as I did not know what to think, the Emperor suddenly spoke, and I also couldn't help feeling refreshed .

“How long will the general return to court?”

I didn't know why the eunuch was dumbfounded with surprise for a short time, and he just bowed, replying, “It's estimated that the general will return to the court in two months . ”

The Emperor just nodded and stopped talking again . I was so anxious that my heart was like being scratched by the cat's claws and I almost lifted up the chair under my buttocks and hit him . I was very disappointed . However, unfortunately, I even was incapable of lifting that chair, because I'd studied it when I'm bored . It was real mahogany, probably heavier than me .

The side palace was again in a silence . I didn't know how long it passed . The Emperor close the memorials in his hand, sighed to the eunuch and said, “Just get up and I really have no appetite . ”

The eunuch said with a sharp voice, “Your Majesty, it is made by the Queen herself . ”

It came . I couldn't help but sit up straight . The Queen . If the queen was really like the Rani Xian said, then the Emperor would not eat . However, if only because of the general, then the emperor would certainly eat, even if he didn't have the appetite, but because of guilty, he might eat .

Unfortunately, the Emperor, after all, was not an normal people and his performance was completely unexpected to me .

I saw Emperor's body trembled and he smiled slightly . Then he went to the eunuch, and looked at the soup . He didn't refuse it, but also didn't eat it, just looking at it .

Shit! What did that mean? Well, I was wrong . No wonder he could be an Emperor .

The eunuch lifted the bowl up and said, “Your Majesty, should I command people to heat it up?”

The emperor shook his head and still looked at the soup, as if there was something interesting in it . Looking at his focused look, I almost thought I would get something out using his hand .

Instead of speaking, the eunuch lifted the soup high so that the Emperor could see more clearly .

The emperor looked for a moment, but did not speak . Then he returned directly to lie down on the bench, and then continued to be absent-minded, and this time he didn't use the memorial to cover his eyes .

I saw the eunuch remained still and my heart was filled with admiration to him . I could bear always sitting here, but he even knelt for so long, without moving, which really was professional .

This time, the time when the Emperor was in a daze was much longer than before, and there was nothing happening in this period of time . The only was that a little imperial maid secretly looked inside, then silently sighed and left, shaking her head .

This woman, I know, was the one who served soup from the Queen's Sleeping Palace . Did she come to see whether the Emperor had eaten the soup? If so, it showed that the Queen was really good for the Emperor . However, this also didn't mean much, after all, without the support of the emperor, the Queen wouldn't use the stick to beat Rani Xian to death in her own Sleeping Palace .

But when it came to the Queen's look, just like the monkey or ape, I thought Emperor must have a sick taste .

I didn't know how long the emperor had been a state of being absent-minded . Then he slowly sat up and command the eunuch to come over, but maybe the eunuch knelt on the ground for so long, so when he was about to went to the Emperor, he suddenly fell down, pouring the soup directly to the ground .

Then, the eunuch knelt down again and asked the Emperor for forgiveness . I was also very depressed because I originally planned to see what the emperor thought of the queen through this soup, but I didn't expect that to happen .

Wait! The emperor could have done it on purpose?

Chapter 126 Obsession in Ancient City 5. “The Queen! Queen! She . She is not a human . ” The Queen wasn't a human .
