"Your Highness, you're wrong. Raising a ghost isn't just about taking away the Seventh Princess' luck for a few years. Once you start raising one, you'll be stuck with it for the rest of your life."
At this time, Xiao Shuangbao said.
"What do you know as a little kid?"
However, as soon as she opened her mouth, Concubine Wang frowned and looked at her with disdain. "It was you who exaggerated in front of Tiantian that made her misunderstand me. If raising ghosts is really a problem, then why did all those things I raised before go away peacefully and not bother me at all? They have never harmed me. On the contrary, they have been helping me to take the position of Concubine."
"You are lying, my lady."
Little Shuangbao immediately exposed her, "If those things really didn't harm you, then why did you want to run away when you saw Shuangbao? Why haven't you dared to show up for a while? It's because you know that you did something bad, confused Daddy, and almost killed Shuangbao.
“They help you do bad things, isn’t that harming you?
"If Shuangbao catches them, do you think Daddy will punish you?
"In the past, you used them to gain benefits, using evil spirits to deal with the Queen Mother, causing her to become seriously ill. You even stole the Queen Mother's Phoenix Seal. But now, haven't you lost the Phoenix Seal just the same?
"Anything gained through crooked means will eventually be lost."
Every word that Xiao Shuangbao said hit Concubine Wang where it hurts.
She immediately said angrily, "The Phoenix Seal was taken away because of your meddling!
"Besides, I have never used evil spirits to deal with the Queen! She is seriously ill because of her own poor health! It has nothing to do with me! At most, I found Zhang Tianshi to annoy her..."
"Not you?"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Shuangbao tilted his head in confusion, "The evil spirit that's parasitic in the Queen's body, you really didn't release it?"
"Of course not!"
Concubine Wang rolled her eyes immediately, "Do you think I'm a fool? I've used demons and monsters to kill people, so I must be punished! Although I want to climb up the social ladder, I don't want to be punished. The only thing I did was to use that vixen to confuse the emperor and make him give me the position of concubine!
"Besides, I never intended to kill you. It was Concubine Zhao who wanted to kill you. What does that have to do with me?"
She spoke sincerely.
Little Shuangbao was in doubt for a moment.
Could it be that she was mistaken?
However, the facts seem to be true, but everything seems to be related to Concubine Wang.
But think about it carefully.
The secret face-changing technique of Concubine Zhao was more likely to have come from Taoist Chen.
The Queen Mother was almost possessed by a ghost, and it was not manipulated by Concubine Wang alone.
"Ancestor brother, have you found out who the evil ghost was that wanted to take over the Queen's body? Who is she?" Xiao Shuangbao asked.
"Well, she won't tell me."
Speaking of this, Qin Cheng felt quite ashamed. He couldn't even interrogate a ghost. "I tried all kinds of methods, even tortured her, but she just refused to say anything. She said the truth is right in front of you, but you don't know it.
"Well, you're a little fool."
Qin Cheng lied about this.
Because the evil ghost was not scolding Xiao Shuangbao, but calling him a fool.
"Humph, Shuangbao is not a little fool!"
However, little Shuangbao believed it and clenched his fists in dissatisfaction. "Shuangbao will definitely find out who she really is!"
"Sister Shuangbao, you just said that we will never get rid of this ghost. Is this true? Is there any way to drive it away? Or collect it?" At this time, Jing Tiantian suddenly said.
"Of course." Xiao Shuangbao said.
"No!" However, Concubine Wang immediately refused, her brows furrowed and her expression serious. "This ghost cost me a lot of money and a lot of persuasion before that person agreed to give it to me! How can I take it back? Wouldn't that mean I'm losing money?"
"Wait a minute - Your Majesty, who is the person who gave you this ghost? Is it Taoist Chen, Taoist Exiled Immortal, or Yun Wuchen?" When Xiao Shuangbao heard this, he also frowned.
"How do you know?"
Concubine Wang was a little surprised.
Soon, she said nonchalantly, "I can tell you, but you have to promise me that this matter must be kept secret and not told to the emperor!"
"Humph, Shuangbao had no intention of complaining to Daddy, but you must promise Shuangbao that, first, you must tell Shuangbao who that person is, and second, this ghost Shuangbao must be captured, otherwise he will definitely kill the Seventh Princess in the future!"
Little Shuangbao threatened Concubine Wang, "Otherwise, Shuangbao will tell Daddy right away!
"When the time comes, you'll have to tell all this!
"Your Highness, please choose for yourself!
"If Shuangbao tells Daddy that you got your position as Imperial Concubine today because of that vixen who bewitched Daddy, Daddy will definitely banish you to the cold palace!"
The four words "banished to the cold palace" immediately made Concubine Wang shudder.
She stared at Xiao Shuangbao with gritted teeth, a ferocious look on her face, as if she wanted to swallow Xiao Shuangbao.
"Mother! Please agree to Sister Shuangbao's request quickly! Do you really want to see me killed by the ghost you raised?" Jing Tiantian urged anxiously from the side.
Tears welled up in her eyes. "Mother, if you want me dead, why not just tell me? I'll kill myself right here! And you won't have to worry about raising a ghost!"
When Concubine Wang heard this, she quickly grabbed her.
"Okay, okay, I'll tell you!"
Concubine Wang was so angry that she glared at Xiao Shuangbao angrily, "His name is Yun Wuchen, he is from the Xuanmen Sect, and he is also your mother Yun Lingjun's junior apprentice."
"Mother's junior fellow apprentice?"
Hearing this, Shuangbao's face was filled with surprise, but she quickly denied it, "He's lying! Shuangbao has never seen him in Xuanmen before! Mother has never mentioned him either! Even if he really is a disciple of Xuanmen, he can't be my junior fellow apprentice!"
"What? Have I been deceived?" Concubine Wang also looked confused.
"My Lady, now is not the time to discuss this. Shuang Bao must first capture this ghost, or it will surely kill the Seventh Princess!" Little Shuang Bao inquired. "That ghost is kept in your bedroom, right?"
"I really don't understand why you insist that this ghost will kill Tiantian! I've clearly kept that vixen before and nothing happened to her at all. Besides, Tiantian would only be unlucky for a few years at most, it wouldn't kill her!"
However, Concubine Wang still looked reluctant.
