"Think about it, those women in the harem are naturally women that the emperor doesn't like. If a woman dies, she's dead, and no one will even know about it. Anyway, no one cares whether she's dead or alive. If she really dies, will she haunt us in the palace accidentally?"
When Chun Xing said this, her whole body was shaking uncontrollably, as if she was afraid of the things she was thinking about.
At this time, her back was already soaked with cold sweat. Although she tried her best to control herself, she still looked trembling.
Qiao Yuange watched Chun Xing reach out to light the fire, but she couldn't do it.
Qiao Yuange sighed, squatted down, took over the work in Chun Xing's hands, and lit the fire. The small leaves and branches surged up after seeing the sparks, and the flames suddenly rose up, illuminating Qiao Yuange and Chun Xing.
After seeing the light, Chun Xing finally calmed down. Qiao Yuange raised his eyes and saw that Chun Xing's face was pale and her eyes were wet with tears.
Then Qiao Yuange reached out his hand, pressed on Chun Xing's shoulder and said, "You, look at your cowardice. If those women turned into female ghosts, why would they look for poor people like us? Think about it, if female ghosts are powerful, they should look for those who hurt them, don't you think?"
After hearing what Qiao Yuange said, Chun Xing finally calmed down a little and said to Qiao Yuange, "Miss Qiao, aren't you afraid of... ghosts?"
When saying "ghost", Chun Xing even dared to just make a mouth shape, as if she was afraid that a ghost would come looking for her.
But Qiao Yuange shook his head and said, "Haven't you heard of a saying? If you don't do bad things in your life, you won't be afraid of ghosts knocking on your door in the middle of the night. Since I haven't done anything wrong to anyone, why would anyone come to find me?"
Chun Xing felt relieved. Although this girl could finally become the future queen's maid, and her IQ was not very high, she was kind. She also felt that she had not let anyone down. If that was the case, no one would come after her.
Chun Xing had just calmed down when suddenly, a creaking sound was heard from a room behind them.
This sound was like the background music from the ancient novel "Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio" and seemed particularly terrifying in the silence of the night.
The moment Chun Xing heard the voice, her heart, which had finally calmed down, suddenly tightened as if it had been thrown into ice.
The whole person was almost flying in an instant, like a cat with its fur exploded. The moment he heard the sound, Qiao Yuange felt his scalp go numb as if it had been brushed.
But she is a modern person and a materialist after all.
She firmly believed that there were no ghosts in this world and that someone must be causing trouble.
So she looked around.
This is amazing to see.
I saw all kinds of noises coming out from the rooms around me.
These sounds are very distant, as if they are far away.
After a sound was heard here, another sound was heard over there. It seemed as if a lot of people were walking around them, but it also seemed as if there was no one around at all.
Qiao Yuange felt it carefully and knew that it was definitely not the sound of the wind, because there was no wind around.
If it wasn't the sound of the wind, then what was it? It should be the sound of human beings.
Qiao Yuange looked for the source of the voice, but could not find any clues at all.
It was pitch black all around.
The wood made a creaking sound, which was a bit scary.
Chun Xing was shivering beside her, obviously about to cry.
She huddled in a corner, hugging her knees, as if in front of a fire, making her feel exposed.
Qiao Yuange turned around and looked at her and said to her, "Are you scared?"
Chun Xing asked Qiao Yuange in a crying voice, "Aren't you afraid? I feel like a ghost has come. It must be the resentment of many women left here!"
"They must want to trap us here too. This is so scary. I feel like I'm really going to die!"
The more she spoke, the more excited and frightened she became. Her voice was trembling, and Qiao Yuange even felt that she was about to pee her pants out of fright when he heard her say this.
Qiao Yuange reached out and held her shoulder and said to her: "You have to calm down. If you don't calm down, then we won't be able to analyze our current situation. If we can't do anything, then we will be led by the nose."
"You have to believe that it's not some ghost that's haunting us now, but someone is deliberately trying to scare us from behind, hoping to scare us. If you really do this, then you've been fooled."
But Chun Xing refused to listen to this. She looked at Qiao Yuange with red and swollen eyes and said to her: "I don't know what I should do, but I feel that we really can't escape this time. Miss Qiao, I don't mean to say that I feel I will die here tomorrow."
The more she spoke, the more she collapsed and frightened she became, and then she burst into tears.
Qiao Yuange sighed when he saw her like this. He knew that she seemed to be on the verge of collapse, and there was no point in talking to her about that.
Qiao Yuange sat there thinking about how he could make Xiao Yun discover him.
The simplest way is to use this little flame to start a big fire here.
As long as the fire gets bigger, if Xiao Yun doesn't talk nonsense, he should know that something is fishy here.
Then again, although Qiao Yuange wanted to save himself in this way, he didn't want to burn down the entire cold palace.
If the fire could not be controlled and another fire broke out in the palace, she would be guilty of a serious crime.
She hasn't married Xiao Yun yet, but she has already started to worry about Xiao Yun.
She immediately found it a little funny and started to think of other ways.
If someone came to the harem to deliver food or patrol the harem, could she take this opportunity to leave?
Anyway, in a nutshell, there is a way to find out, but why would this little maid bring her to the cold palace?
After thinking about it carefully, Qiao Yuange already had the answer in his mind.
And at this moment, suddenly, one of the doors was pushed open, and then a white shadow slowly walked out from it.
At this moment, everything around me was dark and everything seemed unclear.
