But in the yard, there was only cold wind blowing, and no one else was there.
Even the secret guards who were guarding in the dark did not make a sound. The four guards were puzzled. What was the faint fragrance that just blew on their cheeks?
Pei Shuiqing wanted to get rid of these four people, but after thinking about it, he decided not to do it.
It's too early to act now.
She must gain the eldest prince's trust!
She observed outside the study for a while, noted the specific room, and immediately went to Aunt Liu's bedroom.
Pei Shuiqing is a vengeful person and will fight back against anyone who bullies her.
at this time.
Aunt Liu was lying on the bed, sleeping soundly.
Sudden.
Aunt Liu felt her nose itchy. She opened her eyes and saw a long black hair floating in the air and falling on her face.
"ah!"
Aunt Liu screamed and backed away continuously.
And that hair was still following her, "You...what are you!"
Aunt Liu sat on the inside of the bed, trembling with fear.
The hair didn't say anything, but Aunt Liu pushed it away, which was really frightening.
"Someone come! Someone come quickly!"
"Ah! There's a ghost..."
Aunt Liu was shivering while hugging the quilt.
Even though I shouted at the top of my lungs, no one came in.
The invisible Pei Shuiqing smiled happily. How could he let anyone else know about doing such a thing?
She knocked the maid who was on night watch and the guards unconscious.
This long hair was from the maid she had cut during the day.
“Help…”
"Wuwuwu... If anyone comes to save me, I will give her fifty taels of silver."
Aunt Liu was crying.
"Aunt Liu~"
A mournful voice sounded in Aunt Liu's ears.
Aunt Liu suddenly got goosebumps all over her body and buried her head in the quilt, not daring to move.
Her black hair draped over the quilt, dancing.
There was only screaming coming from under the quilt.
Pei Shuiqing chuckled, and seeing that the man was almost scared, he threw away his black hair and went back to sleep.
the next day.
The news that Concubine Liu was threatened by a black-haired ghost spread throughout the mansion.
There were rumors for a while.
The maid whose hair was cut was also discovered by Aunt Liu. Aunt Liu thought it was the personal maid who did it and slapped her.
The maid cried and explained, and the other maids and old women also said that they didn't hear it last night, so Aunt Liu believed it.
but!
This made Aunt Liu even more frightened!
"Girl! Girl!"
"Have you heard? Aunt Liu, who bullied you and me yesterday, is haunted by a ghost."
"Hahaha... Muhua also suffered from alopecia areata. There's a white patch on his scalp, and all the hair is gone."
Yinping rushed in and couldn't help laughing.
Ever since Pei Shuiqing saved her yesterday, she has admired Pei Shuiqing very much.
Pei Shuiqing yawned. He had been busy all night yesterday and finally made some progress.
"Yeah?"
"Oh...how could this happen? It's so terrible."
Ghost? Pei Shuiqing looked confused and a little scared, frowning and looking out the window.
Yinping stepped forward to comfort him, "Girl, don't be afraid."
"You are a good person, so ghosts won't harm you."
"When His Highness comes back, the butler will talk to His Highness and ask the Taoist priest to come and take a look. Everything will be fine."
Pei Shuiqing nodded and had breakfast.
When she had nothing to do, she found two books and read them to learn about the customs and culture of Dongli Kingdom.
——
Dugu Kingdom.
Dugu Qingluo sent out two capable assistants.
At the same time, there were many spies.
These days, there was snow in Jialuo City, adding to the exotic atmosphere.
After reading the letter in his hand, Dugu Qingluo put it on the brazier to burn it, and then pulled his white fox fur coat closer.
"The Kingdom of Dongli must change its owner."
"Shuiqing sent a message saying that she has entered the eldest prince's residence and seems to be interested in Shuiqing."
"Using this, it would be easy to kill the eldest prince."
Dugu Qingluo looked at the Jialuo City which had become the Snow City and said lightly.
Ming Yichu stood beside him, also wearing a white fox fur coat. "Qingluo, your subordinates did a good job."
"If you need me, please tell me and I will help you."
"good."
Dugu Qingluo smiled.
At this time.
A female official came over and said, "Your Highness, those three assassins bit their tongues and committed suicide."
"oh?"
"Let him die. I've already gotten some useful information."
"By the way, preserve the body."
Dugu Qingluo ordered that she would return the corpses from Dongli Kingdom intact.
The lady-in-waiting went down.
The palace maid poured two cups of hot milk tea for them, and they sat down and started drinking.
"Qing Luo, this year... I will celebrate the New Year here."
"I've already sent Dahei back to tell my father and mother."
Ming Yichui held the teacup in both hands, hesitantly.
Although his face is as cold as a stinking stone, when facing the girl he loves, it is like spring water melting ice, which makes people feel excited.
Dugu Qingluo waved his hand to let all the palace maids and waiters retreat, and moved closer to Ming Yichu, their faces almost touching.
Ming Yichui's breathing became lighter.
Dugu Qingluo smiled, his eyes tinged with warmth, "Yichu, I understand your feelings."
"You are here, just rest assured."
“We will celebrate the New Year together this year.”
Dugu Qingluo held Ming Yichu's hand, and their hands were clasped together, and the warmth of each other's palms could be felt.
"good."
Ming Yichui smiled.
——
