Chapter 32
Duanyang emperor Ji looked at herself in the mirror with a disgusting and critical look. Her fingers stroked two dark green clouds under her bright eyes. With a "Ding Dong" sound, she threw the cloud foot hairpin full of pearls on the table. In her voice, she was agitated: "where's the box of honey powder that kuci paid tribute to?"
The maid in charge of her dressing seemed to be absent-minded and hurried back to her senses: "back to your highness, I used up a few days ago I made it up with our own pearl powder. "
Duanyang's gaze at the mirror slowly moved to the maid's face. He stared at the maid for a long time without expression. His tone was a little strange: "Pei Yun, have you ever forgotten the" maidservant "after serving our palace for a long time?"
Pei Yun stares at her bleak look: Although Duanyang has always been arrogant and indulgent, he has never treated them severely, let alone speak in such a strange way. He kneels on the ground in a panic: "I know my mistake."
Pei Yun lowered his head and looked at the floor nervously. He didn't find the ups and downs of Duanyang's chest. Anger and grievances appeared alternately in his eyes. He seemed to be trying his best to endure something. After a long time, he said coldly: "you go down, change Peiyu in."
Pei Yun and Pei Yu passed each other. Pei Yun kept his head down and seemed to be a little absent-minded.
Peiyu entered the palace a year ago. She is four years younger than her. She is only in her early 15's this year. She is not as good as her. But she is more innocent than her. When she laughs, she is also infectious. She is very thin and small, with high cheekbones, sparse hair, tight bun, and big head.
The Dragon Boat Festival has been lying on the table and sleeping: "coming?"
"Your Highness, why do you still let her around We all see it clearly... " Peiyu's indignant voice was particularly clear. Duanyang immediately straightened up and "hissed" with a sneer: "it's not time yet. When I catch her, I'll see how she denies it."
When she said this, her eyes were red, just like a small beast who was angry after being attacked, "what's wrong with me in these five years? Eat what's inside and out. "
Pei Yu lowered her slightly bigger head and muttered: "she used to be your Majesty's maid. I'm sure she couldn't look up to us in her heart. When her heart was high, she naturally wanted to go outside to build a bridge."
"Oh, brother..." There was no smile on Duanyang's face. Pei Yu dressed her up and held an oak comb in her hand. "The emperor brother was raised by the empress. His heart is not with us. His mother's wife gave birth to him, but she couldn't even afford to be a empress dowager. What am I
Those false names and favours have never been implemented.
Today, she is not speechless. If Pei Yun is on her side, she will seriously remind her to be "cautious" and help outsiders bully her!
Peiyu is different, this is a loyal protector, with her together, at will comfortable.
Although Peiyu is young, she has enough strength to squeeze Duanyang's shoulder. She squints her eyes and softens her tone: "that day, did you see me talking with Mr. Liu?"
Peiyu sweet smile: "maidservant see, really a pair of Bi people."
"He knows a lot of things I don't know. He's the most gentle and polite man I've ever seen." The corner of Duanyang emperor Ji's mouth just came up and fell, "it's a pity that there is always someone around him who is with him all the time. I asked him to accompany my palace to the garden, but he didn't agree."
Peiyu's massage relaxed her whole body and made her feel tired. She couldn't help yawning.
"Did Diji not sleep well last night?" Pei Yu glanced at her for a long time, turned quickly, and tiptoed to find a box of spices from the cupboard. "Fortunately, there are a lot of spices left in Peiyun's previous fire. Diji, go back to bed and lie down for a while."
"Order it." The Dragon Boat Festival answers the Tao absently behind his back.
Open the paper package, twist out a piece, ignite in the censer, a faint fragrance diffuses out, "how does Diji feel about this soothing fragrance?"
As soon as he turned his head, Duanyang had already fallen asleep on the dressing table. The little maid in waiting approached her and pushed her tentatively: "Diji? "Diji?"
Without response, she looked at Duanyang's sleeping face for a long time in the darkness.
"Now that you have found the Xingshan temple in the southern suburb, it proves that what Lu Jiu said is true. At least it's not all shadowy. There's something strange in this matter." Mu Yao's eyebrows frowned slightly.
"If you want to hide or seal up something, it's impossible to leave a large abandoned Xingshan temple in the southern suburb without any treatment." Liu Fu sat down and hit the point.
Mu Sheng replied, "it's very remote there. It's covered with weeds. It's hard to see if you don't look carefully."
Ling Miaomiao observes his words and looks, and finds that Mu Sheng deliberately conceals the seal of Mu family.
She thought for a moment, then nodded: "there are very few people on that road. Even if someone sees the hall, it will be regarded as a mirage and will not take a risk."
As soon as the voice fell, she felt the eyes of Mu Sheng fall on her again, as if looking at her.
But their two words obviously can't persuade Mu Yao, she immediately made a decision: "ah Sheng, tomorrow you lead the way, I'll see it myself."
"No way." Mu Sheng suddenly changed his face, "it's too dangerous, elder sister can't go."Mu Yao raised her mouth and sneered: "didn't you just say it's just a little remote?"
Mu Sheng's eyes turned slightly, showing hesitation and innocence Elder brother Liu is very reasonable. If there is a seal there, we went in a hurry that day and didn't find it? "
"All right, all right." Liu Fu clothes some funny ground pinched pinch temple, "field exploration is not what matter.". Before that, I have a few doubts to raise with you. "
"Previously, we speculated that Diji's nightmare was due to the addition of hallucinogenic herbs in sandalwood. Then Princess Zhao went in and out with Diji every time. Why is she OK?"
Mu Yao tries to answer. Liu Fu raises his sleeve to stop him, and then says, "Yao Er finds dead ashes in sandalwood. Where do so many ashes come from? Ashes can't be burned. After they are ignited, they will only fall down and float in the air with the wind. It's hard to say that it's shoddy to reduce costs. "
"According to Guo Xiu, the source of these sandalwood was a Jiangnan businessman named Li Zhun in jingyangpo. What kind of role did he play in this series of events? What does he have to do with what happened ten years ago? "
Several people are staring at Liu Fu clothes, all lost in thought.
"Another one, according to Lu Jiu, shortly after the completion of Xingshan Temple ten years ago, the monks in the temple died suddenly and the red light continued to spread all over the sky. This kind of strange thing is obviously out of the reach of human beings, and there must be gods and monsters involved. Why did we never feel evil in the process of visiting?"
A moment of silence, Mu voice face expressionless, Mu Yao seems to think of something, face becomes ugly.
Ling Miaomiao opened his mouth gently: "brother Liu said," there must be gods and monsters involved in this matter, "and he has already answered the first question."
Liu Fu Yi's eyes praised him and said, "that's right. Hallucinogenic herbs may not really lead to nightmares. Even if they are effective, they will be treated equally. Only with the participation of gods and monsters can they have the ability of selection and control. "
Mu Yao frowned: "but we really don't feel the evil spirit. Is it that the other side's cultivation is profound and unfathomable..."
"Sister, don't think the enemy is too strong." The tone of Mu Sheng is gentle and pitiful. "We can't find the evil spirit when we catch the demon. The other party may not be a demon, but they have the same ability to mystify."
Mu Yao and Liu Fuyi look up at the same time: "ghost?"
Ling Miaomiao listened quietly, blinking a pair of black and white eyes.
Liu Fuyi explained carefully for her: "demons are non-human things. They usually have strong evil spirit. The higher the demonic power is, the more evil spirit will be. But ghosts are humanized, which is essentially another way of human existence. For demon hunters, the resentment of ghosts is not easy to be perceived."
Miaomiao nodded sincerely: "therefore, the red light of Xingshan Temple ten years ago and the nightmare of Diji ten years later are likely to have the participation of ghosts."
Liu Fuyi thought for a moment and explained: "ghosts are different from demons. Their ability to move is limited. They are basically trapped in the place of death. If they want to move by force, they need to be attached to the" media. "
Miaomiao felt numb after hearing this: "according to elder brother Liu, is it possible that this" medium "is the ashes in sandalwood. The ashes fly with the wind, contaminate the women's lapels, and go home with the Duanyang emperor's concubine..."
If her timid girl was around, she would scream and scurry when she heard this.
It's a pity that all the people present are experienced demon hunters. Their faces haven't changed much. They all nodded and acquiesced to Ling Miaomiao's guess.
Mu Sheng played with his belt and said with a smile: "since there are ghosts, they must be dead people. Do you guess whether these people died at Princess Zhao of Xingshan temple or Li Zhun of jingyangpo
Mu Yao's cold eyes and eyebrows were a little depressed: "the man who died in vain turns into a ghost. Everything happened before and after his death is cause and effect. The matter is the involvement of the secret department. What position should we take to control the demon man?"
So far, the truth is complicated. It seems that a storm is brewing in the calm situation. She is eager to pursue it, but
Mu Sheng said with a smile: "if sister wants to check, I will accompany her to check. It must be as interesting to catch ghosts as to catch demons."
Mu Yao turns her head and bumps into her brother's eyes with infinite indulgence. For so many years, he doesn't listen to anyone, but obeys her. She always stands on her side unconditionally. She moves a little in her heart: "ah Sheng, thank you, elder sister."
"We are very polite."
The door creaks and opens, and the fierce cicadas rush into the inner room. The warden in a brand-new dark blue official robe is holding the dust. Behind them are two maids in a bun.
The inner warden stepped forward to the threshold and went straight to Mu Sheng, with a smile all over his face: "Mr. mu, please go to the front hall to have a drink."
Mu Sheng slightly squinted, looked back at the three people at a loss, pointed to himself: "only call me?"
"Er..." The old warden was a little embarrassed, but he quickly said, "you adults have made great contributions. It's OK to go together. It's just that the empress of the imperial concubine said that Mr. Mu and the girl were in a hurry to go out and investigate the case, but they didn't get to see each other well.... "
"Ah Sheng, you go." Before Mu Sheng speaks, Liu Fu Yi makes a decision for him. He suddenly reaches out his hand and pushes Ling Miaomiao. He says with a smile, "Miaomiao will go too." , the fastest update of the ReadNovelFull!
