Hongwu flashed in front of her: "I don't want to sleep alone anymore. I want to sleep with you. It's been so long since anyone has been with me. Come and keep me company."

Surprisingly, scaring people is quite fun.

Upon hearing this, Li Wanyue refused to sleep with her, fearing that he might devour her in the middle of the night.

Li Wanyue shook her head in alarm: "No, you should sleep... I'll stay with you... okay?"

"No, if you don't sleep, I'll kill you."

After Hongwu finished speaking, she stepped forward and grabbed Li Wanyue's neck with two hands covered in blood-red fingernails. Li Wanyue was shocked to find that she couldn't scream. She looked at Hongwu in front of her with horror and kept shaking her head, trying to get her to let go.

Li Wanyue looked at the ghost in front of her and became more and more frightened. She couldn't catch her breath and fainted.

Hongwu released her grip and checked Li Wanyue: "You're so useless. You fainted before we even started pinching you."

Feng Qinghuang smiled mischievously: "Sister Hongwu, you were so scary just now, you frightened me."

Hongwu looked at Feng Qinghuang somewhat embarrassedly: "Young Madam, I'm sorry I startled you."

Feng Qinghuang covered her mouth and chuckled, "Hehehe, it's okay, it's okay, it's just so similar."

Hongwu then splashed the dog blood she carried with her all over Li Wanyue's room, and even splashed some on her body. After doing this, Hongwu nodded in satisfaction: "Hmm, that's about it."

When Feng Qinghuang saw this, she was worried for Li Wanyue. She was terrified that night and didn't know what it would be like when she woke up the next morning. She really wanted to see it, but she couldn't.

Rong Qi put his arm around Feng Qinghuang and said, "Jiaojiao, how was it? Have you had enough of the excitement? Shouldn't we go back?"

"Okay, Qi, let's go back quickly, I'm getting sleepy."

Rong Qi looked at her amusedly: "What, you weren't sleepy while watching the excitement, but you're sleepy now that the excitement is over?"

Feng Qinghuang snuggled into his arms: "Of course, who would be sleepy if there's something exciting to watch?"

"You've got a silver tongue, aren't you? Let's go."

Rong Qi held Feng Qinghuang tightly and returned the way they came. Before they even reached the Feng Prince's residence, Feng Qinghuang had already fallen asleep on Rong Qi's back. Rong Qi felt the little one's even breathing and had to slow down, afraid of waking her up.

Rongyi and Hongwu tidied up the scene, making sure nothing was missed, and then left the palace.

The next day, the entire palace was abuzz with rumors that Liuyun Palace was truly haunted.

But no one dared to investigate, and could only hide in their palaces, remaining secluded.

Meanwhile, in Liuyun Palace, the palace maid who was guarding outside Li Wanyue rubbed her neck after waking up in the morning and immediately went to check on Li Wanyue inside.

Why does her neck hurt so much? Did someone hit her yesterday?

The moment she opened the door, she was terrified by the scene inside and ran out screaming for help.

Li Wanyue was also awakened by the palace maid's shouts. She rubbed her neck and suddenly remembered what happened last night. She quickly looked around and almost thought she was in the underworld.

The room was covered in bloodstains and various red ribbons. Li Wanyue got up and stumbled out.

Li Wanyue appeared dazed, muttering repeatedly, "There's a ghost, this palace is haunted...haunted..."

Upon hearing the palace maid's shouts, Hongmu immediately ran over and saw Li Wanyue acting erratically.

"Your Majesty, are you alright?"

Li Wanyue didn't answer, but kept saying, "There's a ghost," and pointed towards the room.

Hongmu handed her over to the palace maid and went into the room to see what was going on!

Hongmu stepped into the room and exclaimed, "Wow, what a grand affair! It must have taken quite a bit of time to set this up. No wonder Li Wanyue was so frightened. Who could have done this? My master probably didn't have time to do all this; it must have been someone else's doing."

During the day, Li Wanyue kept saying she wasn't afraid of ghosts, that there was nothing scary about them. But after a good night's sleep, she was proven wrong.

What Hongmu didn't know was that Li Wanyue wasn't just scared out of her wits by waking up to find the room in this state; she had been terrified by a real ghost the night before, and seeing this scene again this morning was bound to drive her crazy.

Hongmu remained calm and instructed people to tidy up the room again, throwing away things that needed to be thrown away and replacing things that needed to be replaced. Even if Li Wanyue didn't live in this room, it still needed to be tidied up, since it did look rather creepy.

After giving her instructions, Hongmu left. She still had to do her duty and take good care of Li Wanyue.
