Chapter 814: The Concubine is Beautiful

Qin Chuchu glared at the guys in front of her angrily. They thought she was ugly and looked like a ghost.

Seeing that the princess was really angry, Feng Yi picked up the book on the ground and hurried to explain.

"Princess, please listen to my explanation. While we were building a road in Qingzhou Prefecture, we encountered a difficult family."

Qin Chuchu was about to throw the book away, but stopped when she heard Feng Yi say that.

I don't know what this guy means, and what it has to do with pretending to be a ghost.

Seeing that the princess was willing to listen to the explanation, Feng Yi took the opportunity to continue explaining.

"We have built a total of 18 roads leading to Qingzhou Prefecture, but we encountered a difficult family who refused to allow us to widen the road outwards.

I thought that giving him some silver would solve the problem, but I didn't expect them to ask for a sky-high price of one thousand taels of gold.

At first, the subordinates thought they were ignorant and asked for such a high price. Later, after investigation, they found out that the family had recently been in close contact with Zhou Sheng, a subordinate of Han Mulei.

If I'm not mistaken, we must have reached some kind of deal with them. They are deliberately making things difficult for us because they don't want us to be able to build the road smoothly.

That's why my subordinates came up with the idea of ​​pretending to be ghosts to scare them, but we were just wondering who would play the ghost, and then you came in."

After Feng Yi finished speaking, he pointed at her big black eyes.

"While the color of your eyes has not faded yet, I will take advantage of it. I have no other intentions."

"That's right, I don't mean anything else."

The others nodded in agreement.

The princess's appearance can scare people to death even during the day, not to mention at night. If you let the princess take action, you will definitely succeed.

“…………”Qin Chuchu.

She licked her black lips with her big black tongue and touched her eyeballs.

Although this didn't sound very pleasant, I wasn't too angry.

"How do you know this trick will work? Aren't you afraid of arousing suspicion?"

They were living a good life, but as soon as the road construction was stopped, their house was haunted. Anyone with a bit of common sense would think that they were the cause.

"Don't worry, Princess, it won't happen!" Feng Yi grinned proudly again.

"Two days ago, we dug a ditch at the entrance of the Temple of the Dead and announced that we would change the route and not pass through that house.

Now everyone in the village is in a panic, fearing that once the Temple of the Dead is demolished, the wronged souls will come out and cause trouble.

And everyone's accusations are directed at that family. The conflict has been escalating over the past two days, and that family is being pointed at wherever they go."

After saying that, Feng Yi smiled triumphantly. Although this trick was a bit dishonest, there was nothing he could do about it.

If they hadn't made things difficult for themselves first, they wouldn't have come up with such a mean trick.

"What is the Temple of the Dead dedicated to?" Qin Chuchu scratched her head.

I've heard of the Temple of the God of Land and the Temple of the God of Wealth, but I've never heard of the Temple of the Dead.

"Oh, it's where people from any family who have died are taken to undergo a ceremony. To put it bluntly, it's where they are allowed to ascend to heaven.

In the eyes of the common people, it was a place with extremely gloomy energy, and they would never go there unless someone had died in their family.

Now that we know that our highway will be rerouted through there, the people are now worried, fearing that they will disturb the dead.

So now the timing is just right, as long as you take action, this matter will be accomplished."

Feng Yi smiled unkindly after he finished speaking.

Now everything is ready, only a ghost is missing, and only the princess can be this ghost.

“………………”Qin Chuchu.

This guy is so mean! He usually looks quite honest and simple, but he turns out to be even more evil when he gets his mind on things.

Although I feel a little unhappy about playing a ghost, I still have a little bit of anticipation. It seems to be very fun.

"Does Your Majesty also agree that I should dress up as this ghost?"

She looked at the man next to her seriously. If he agreed, it would mean that she was suitable for the role.

That means this man who always says he is not ugly is lying. I will pinch him hard when the time comes.

If you disagree, that's another matter.

Seeing Chuchu blinking her big black eyes and staring at him, the man knew that she was plotting something in her mind, and he controlled the upward curve of his lips.

“…………”

Chuchu was testing him. If it were in the past, he would have just said it directly, but after living with Chuchu for so long, he already understood her temper.

His strong sense of self-preservation made him feel that he should not speak the truth carelessly, as any mistake would directly affect his future life.

Seeing that the man was still hesitant, Qin Chuchu put her hand on the man's leg and was ready to pinch him.

"Speak!"

Looking at Chuchu's eager little hand on his leg, the man immediately expressed his opinion.

"Of course I disagree. Putting aside the question of whether my beloved concubine will be in danger, it is not appropriate for my beloved concubine to play the role of a female ghost since she is so beautiful."

“………………”Qin Chuchu.

This time I felt much better and my hand was back.

“…………”Everyone.

How can you say such nonsense! Everyone looked at each other, their tongues almost popping out in surprise.

The princess is not good-looking now. It’s a good thing that she didn’t scare two people to death. The master lied without blushing.

Only Feng Qi came to his senses first. He rolled his eyes and started to flatter.

"Look at what the prince said. Just because the princess is so beautiful, she should play the female ghost. Didn't you see that the picture book says that female ghosts look like fairies? Otherwise, those handsome scholars wouldn't be so bewitched by them."

After saying that, he winked at the people around him, signaling them to follow suit.

Everyone was still stunned by Lei again, but after receiving Feng Qi's gaze, they immediately came to their senses.

"Oh, yes, Feng Qi is right. It's because the princess is so beautiful that she is suitable to play a female ghost."

"Yes, yes, that's right."

They all flattered the princess against their conscience, saying anything they wanted to say as long as they could get the princess's consent.

“………………”Qin Chuchu didn’t say anything.

I know clearly that these guys are trying to fool me, but it just sounds good to me and I don't feel angry anymore.

"when?"

"Ah?" Feng Yi was stunned for a moment, but quickly came to his senses and grinned.

"Princess, the sooner the better. We can't delay the construction progress, otherwise the road won't be finished before the weather gets cold."

He suppressed the excitement in his heart and glanced at the brothers beside him.

The princess agreed, and the others also looked relieved, thinking that their trick was successful.

Qin Chuchu didn't notice the expressions of the guys in front of her. She was thinking about pretending to be a ghost and she just thought it was quite interesting.

I was actually feeling a little bit of anticipation.

After hearing Fengyi's words, he nodded decisively in agreement.

"Okay, let's do it tonight!"

"Ah!?" Everyone was stunned.

Then you looked at me and I looked at you. Although we didn't say anything, we had the same thought in our minds.

“………………”

Why does the princess look so excited!!!
