When she first had this dream, Luo Zhaozhao didn't take it seriously.
She firmly believed that there were no ghosts in this world, that the dead could not be resurrected and could not do evil.
But as the dream became clearer and clearer, and the touch became more and more real, her thoughts began to waver.
The dream was so horrible that Luo Zhaozhao's spirit was on the verge of collapse. Now he was like a walking corpse, letting Gu Miao lead him. His voice was very small.
"It's useless, it's useless. No matter what I do, I will still have this dream. She seems to be obsessed with me. She must be obsessed with me."
She kept muttering to herself and looked around with fear in her eyes.
"It's okay, Zhao Zhao."
Gu Miao comforted her
"Let's go find Brother Qingyi now and ask him to exorcise the evil spirit for you. He will definitely have a way. He is the most sacred person in Jinchu."
The word "National Master" ignited some spirit in Luo Zhaozhao. He used up his last bit of strength to open his eyelids and looked at the solemn national temple. Light slowly rose in his eyes.
A crescent-shaped handsome figure appeared in her mind.
Yes, if it's this person, there must be a way...
However, when he reached the gate of the National Temple, Gu Miao stopped.
The Queen Mother's personal maid Pei Yan was guarding the door. When she saw Gu Miao coming, she saluted slightly, but her expression was neither humble nor arrogant.
"The Third Princess."
"Grandma is here?"
Gu Miao frowned and tiptoed to look inside. He could only smell the scent of Buddhist incense, but could not see anything.
Pei Yan lowered her eyebrows to hide her gaze from Gu Miao, but her voice was a little high.
"The Queen Mother is listening to the Imperial Master's lecture inside. This is the schedule for today. If you wish to see the Imperial Master, please come back tomorrow, Princess."
Luo Zhaozhao lowered his eyes, the light slowly went out, and he sighed.
It was this breath that seemed to have triggered the switch in Gu Miao's heart. Yilan's words made Gu Miao unhappy. She held Luo Zhaozhao's hand and complained in her tone.
"What? My grandmother is lecturing with the Imperial Preceptor, but I can't go in? What kind of logic is that? Besides, my friend has something extremely urgent that he needs help from Brother Qingyi... He needs help from the Imperial Preceptor, and can't wait until tomorrow."
After saying that, she wanted to rush inside past Pei Yan.
In fact, there is a bit of Gu Miao's selfish motives involved.
After the last incident, Xu Qingyi seemed to be avoiding her intentionally or unintentionally, and she hadn't seen Xu Qingyi for a long time.
Finally, she got the chance to know that Xu Qingyi was in the National Temple, and Luo Zhaozhao was in poor health. Everything was right at the right time, in the right place, and with the right people. Gu Miao felt that this was a chance for her to reconcile with Xu Qingyi.
Unexpectedly, a Cheng Yaojin appeared halfway through, and when he reached the door, the Queen Mother stopped him again.
"You can't go in! Third Princess!"
Pei Yan stepped forward to stop her, her tone a little harsh
"The Queen Mother specifically instructed that no one should disturb her..."
"Grandma loves me the most! I'll be fine in there!"
She ignored Pei Yan's objection and rushed in, dragging Luo Zhaozhao. Seeing her action, Pei Yan was shocked. She never thought that Gu Miao would actually force her way in, so she hurriedly followed.
"Third Princess! Third Princess! Third Princess, you can't..."
Pei Yan wanted to catch up, but it was too late. Gu Miao had already pulled Luo Zhaozhao into the hall.
In the hall, the empress dowager was meditating on a cushion, twirling Buddhist beads in her hands, reciting Buddhist scriptures with her eyes slightly closed, looking very focused.
Xu Qingyi sat opposite her, beating the wooden fish rhythmically. He slowly opened his eyes and looked at Gu Miao and Luo Zhaozhao who had barged in.
His gaze did not linger on the two of them.
"Queen, someone is coming."
He spoke to the Queen Mother very softly, his tone gentle and kind, which blended perfectly with the incense filling the room, making people feel intoxicated.
The Queen Mother slowly opened her eyes, glanced at Gu Miao's face calmly, and then looked at Pei Yan.
"The older you get, the less careful you are in your work. You just ignore everything I say."
Peiyan knelt down and knocked her head to the ground
"Report to the Queen Mother, it was the Third Princess who insisted on barging in..."
She has a lot of experience and is not panicked even when experiencing such things.
On the contrary, Gu Miao, who had just rushed in without hesitation, became reserved the moment he saw the Queen Mother.
"grandmother……"
The Queen Mother didn't say anything, but she didn't intend to blame her anymore. Gu Miao breathed a sigh of relief. Bao Lan brought a cushion for the two of them to sit on.
She leaned towards the Queen Mother, and Gu Miao tried to make her smile more innocent.
"Grandma, you won't blame Miao'er for breaking in without permission, right?"
Although he said so, Gu Miao's eyes were secretly moving on Xu Qingyi.
She looked at Luo Zhaozhao with a greedy look, which made her feel a little disgusted. She lowered her head in a hurry. Luo Zhaozhao sat up straight.
"What's the point of blaming me? Isn't it enough that the emperor blames you?"
"Your noisy personality hasn't changed at all. When can you learn from Changle and be calm and composed? Be someone who can take on responsibilities."
When he heard Changle, Gu Miao's face changed instantly, and the corners of his mouth fell.
"Grandma, can you please stop favoring Changle? I don't want to compete with her. She's the biggest idiot."
"Gu Miao."
Hearing this, the Queen Mother's face showed a warm anger.
“Pay attention to your words!”
"Changle's past behavior was indeed absurd, but he's been behaving properly lately. He even came to see me a while ago. As for you..."
Having said that, the Queen Mother stopped talking. She closed her eyes and continued to turn the Buddhist beads in her hand.
Gu Miao, who hadn't visited the Queen Mother for a long time, suddenly felt guilty.
"If you have something to say, just say it quickly and leave when you're done. Don't disturb my peace with your chattering here."
Thanks to the Queen Mother's reminder, Gu Miao pulled Luo Zhaozhao behind him to Xu Qingyi and met his calm eyes.
"Qingyi...Brother Qingyi, please take a look at Zhaozhao. She's been having the same nightmare lately. Could she have been contaminated by something unclean?"
She said this to Xu Qingyi, but even though she tried her best to appear serious in front of the Queen Mother, the blush on her face could not change her thoughts.
Seeing Gu Miao like this, the Queen Mother sighed in her heart.
Xu Qingyi raised his eyes and met Luo Zhaozhao's haggard face.
Luo Zhaozhao is much smarter than Gu Miao. Even at this time, she did not seem too anxious.
Instead, he nodded to Xu Qingyi
"Master Imperial Master, thank you for your help."
Xu Qingyi nodded at the same time, took Luo Zhaozhao's wrist and took her pulse.
The scene was silent, with the faint fragrance lingering among the group. Before long, Luo Zhaozhao felt drowsy.
After a while, Xu Qingyi put down Luo Zhaozhao's wrist and stared at her with a gentle look.
For no reason, Luo Zhaozhao felt a little nervous.
"Master, how am I?"
"Miss Luo."
Xu Qingyi said
"You reap what you sow."
