Upon arriving at the Liuyun Palace in the Imperial Palace, Feng Qinghuang looked at the desolate courtyard and heard the sound of the wind, which made her feel uneasy all over.
Hongwu was getting ready, while Feng Qinghuang looked at the courtyard and sighed.
"It's so desolate here."
Rong Qi pulled the person into his arms and wrapped them tightly: "This place originally belonged to a concubine, but she died tragically for no reason. I heard it has been haunted, so no one lives here. It has been abandoned and neglected, so it must be desolate."
Feng Qinghuang asked in confusion, "Then why did the Emperor arrange for Li Wanyue to move in? Why didn't he just send her to the Cold Palace?"
Rong Qi leaned close to her ear and whispered, "Because Li Wanyue has Rong Mian, Uncle probably doesn't want Rong Mian to be too extreme because of these things."
Feng Qinghuang pressed on, "But this place isn't much better than the Cold Palace, is it?"
Rong Qi chuckled: "Jiaojiao, why are you being so worried today?"
Feng Qinghuang shook her head: "No, Aqi, I was just thinking that the women in the harem have such a miserable life. So many women wait for one man and have to use all sorts of means to compete for his favor."
Rong Qi kissed her little face: "Jiaojiao, don't worry, Aqi and Jiaojiao only have each other. Also, Jiaojiao, in the future, just say these things to Aqi, don't say them in front of your aunt, it will only make her sad. But things in the palace have always been like this, let's not judge, okay?"
Uncle also longed to live happily ever after with Mother, but in the early days of his reign, he needed the support of the families of his concubines; otherwise, the Azure Dragon Kingdom might not have belonged to anyone.
Feng Qinghuang nodded: "It's alright, Aqi. I was just expressing my feelings. I won't tell anyone else except you."
"Okay, let's watch the show."
When Feng Qinghuang saw the dressed-up Hong Wu, she was startled. It looked too much like her.
"Aqi, I have to say, Sister Hongwu's outfit is simply amazing. Not only can she float in mid-air, but she can also use her internal energy to make herself smoke."
Rong Qi looked at her amusedly: "The smoking thing is a spirit ball that Jiao Jiao made before, which I modified slightly. Hong Wu put one in each of her sleeves."
"Wow, how did Aqi do that?"
Rong Qi tapped her nose: "Watch the show first, I'll teach you when we get back."
"Uh-huh."
Once Hongwu was dressed, she slipped into Li Wanyue's room under the cover of night. Rong Qi, along with Feng Qinghuang and Rongyi, followed behind her.
The palace maid on duty was waiting in the outer room, already unconscious, while Li Wanyue was still fast asleep in the inner room.
Hongwu jumped onto the bed, facing Li Wanyue face to face, almost nose to nose. This was even more terrifying than when she had scared Rongyang before.
Feng Qinghuang suppressed a laugh, her little shoulders trembling. She saw Hongwu playfully pointing at Li Wanyue's face with her finger, trying to wake her up and make her see her. Otherwise, how could she scare Li Wanyue when she was fast asleep?
While Li Wanyue was fast asleep, she felt someone touch her face. She simply reached out and shoved the object away a couple of times before turning over and going back to sleep.
Hongwu wasn't about to let her have her way; this time, she slapped her back hard. Pretending to be a ghost must be tiring, you know? Are you really okay sleeping so soundly?
Li Wanyue was woken up and wanted to stretch to see who was so bold as to disturb her sleep. When she saw what was in front of her, her heart almost jumped out of her chest.
Although Liuyun Palace is said to be haunted, no one has actually seen it. She just moved in today, and she's already so lucky to have encountered it? No way, she's really too unlucky.
Li Wanyue pointed a trembling finger at the ghost in front of her: "You...who are you...what do you want?"
Hongwu gripped her fingers tightly, and Li Wanyue felt her fingers were about to freeze. If she had thought it was a person in disguise just now, Li Wanyue was now starting to believe it.
Hongwu laughed sinisterly: "Hehehe, you're lying in my bed and you still ask who I am? If you're asleep, how am I supposed to sleep? Why don't we sleep together!"
After Hongwu finished speaking, she made a move to lie down next to Li Wanyue.
Li Wanyue scrambled to her feet in a flustered manner, only to roll onto the ground.
"You...you sleep...you sleep, I'm not sleeping."
This is terrifying! Someone, please save her! But she dares not scream, afraid that the ghost will kill her.
