Chapter 207 Baby Ghost
An hour later.
The old judge came out wiping his sweat, greeted Concubine Li, and said to Xiao Tangbao respectfully:
"Your Highness, the dagger has been removed. Fortunately, no internal organs were injured. Even more fortunately, the bleeding was stopped very smoothly. As long as you can survive the high fever that follows, your life will be safe!"
"Not only that, it's also miraculous. After we successfully stopped the bleeding for Her Royal Highness, the princess miraculously woke up! Now the princess has a ginseng slice in her mouth, and her consciousness is gradually becoming clear!"
The old judge had been practicing medicine for decades and had never seen such a situation. He was puzzled and felt very surprised.
Nanny Li's eyes rolled, and she suddenly remembered that Princess Zhaoning had just given her master a pill...
Could it be...
She plopped down on her knees in front of Xiao Tangbao, who looked up at her with immense gratitude.
Fearing that she would cause trouble for the little princess, she said nothing and just kept kowtowing to Tang Bao.
Concubine Li was stunned at first, and then realized that it was Tang Bao who saved her son?
This child was hiding a huge secret, and everyone in the palace knew it, and everyone had their own speculations... It was only thanks to the Empress Dowager and the Emperor's secret suppression that no rumors were spread...
Thinking of this, Concubine Li did not dare to think too deeply about it. Due to her status, she did not want to bring the little child into controversy. She just faced Tang Bao and bowed gratefully.
Little Tangbao gestured to everyone to stand up somewhat embarrassedly, and stood on the table and hid behind Chuntai.
"Your Highness!" a secret guard reported, "The patrol officers apprehended several beggars hiding corpses. Upon investigation, they confirmed that the deceased were none other than Liu Jiqing's parents, Liu Jiqing himself, and his beloved concubine, Guan."
"Their bodies are currently in Shengtian Mansion. May I ask if the princess would like to see them?"
Xiao Tangbao narrowed his gray eyes and unconsciously looked at Yun Miaoyi on the couch.
Her face was terribly pale, her body was twitching slightly, and the veins on the back of her hand resting on the quilt were bulging.
"No need," she stared at Yun Miaoyi, "Don't worry, Third Aunt. As long as you hold on, Tang Bao will give you an explanation and the truth by midnight tonight at the latest!"
“…” Yun Miaoyi nodded imperceptibly and slowly closed her eyes.
She needs rest.
Except for the imperial doctors who felt a little confused, including Yun Miaoyi who had a near-death experience, everyone present believed that Xiao Tangbao would definitely do what he said.
Xiao Tangbao took his men away and waited until dark.
Everyone was silent and started to get busy.
Concubine Li wiped away her tears and sat beside Yun Miaoyi's couch, holding her hand tightly and whispering to her from time to time.
Only Liu Sheng, who was temporarily locked up in the woodshed and still unable to move or speak, could not stop crying and drooling. Besides sadness, he felt fear for the first time.
…
That night, there were no stars or moon.
Xiao Tangbao went to Yun Miaoyi's room with a serious face, sent away everyone except Concubine Li, Nanny Li, and Chuntai, and ordered someone to bring Liu Sheng and throw him in the corner.
Under the puzzled gazes of several people, the little guy lit the incense and candles on the long table, muttered something, and started to work busily with his hands and feet.
Not long after...
A gust of wind suddenly blew the candle on the table, causing it to sway suddenly, making people's hearts frightened.
Gradually, a ball of black air suddenly appeared before everyone's eyes...
Nanny Li frowned, wondering if she had been cheated and bought low-quality incense and candles at a high price... Suddenly, a baby shape appeared in the black air!!!
And... the "baby" floating in the air with its eyes closed actually seemed to be able to see. It suddenly let out a creepy scream and then floated towards Yun Miaoyi on the bed at a high speed.
ah! ! !
As soon as his butt touched the moss on the stool, he suddenly shot up like a spring. He had never lost his composure like this before!
Horrified, Concubine Li used her body to block Yun Miaoyi without a second thought, and Nanny Li also rushed to the bed...
On the other hand, Yun Miaoyi was not afraid at all. She stared at the "child" without blinking. She felt as if something was pulling at her heart and she couldn't help feeling sad.
Just as Concubine Li and Nanny Li were protecting Yun Miaoyi, trembling with fear...
But Xiao Tangbao said that it was a baby ghost that had never harmed anyone. There was an intestine on its belly button and it must have died right after birth.
? ? !!
Chuntai, Concubine Li, and Nanny Li were so shocked that they were speechless and all stood there in amazement.
Chuntai: So this is what it means to see a ghost? Oh no! Chengfeng is not here, what a pity!
Concubine Li: Could it be that it's been haunting me, causing my precious daughter to lose her mind and become love-brained, causing her to suffer so many years of humiliation for nothing?
Li Ma: Why doesn't such a small ghost reincarnate after death? If he doesn't want to harm anyone, why is he pestering his master?
Everyone was so shocked that they were speechless, and their inner thoughts were full.
"Ha!" Xiao Tangbao roared with great momentum. While they were daydreaming, he grabbed the baby ghost's umbilical cord in an instant with lightning speed.
The baby ghost seemed to be extremely frightened. He held his mouth and cried loudly, angry at himself for eating too much incense and candles!
He frowned, putting on a fierce look, trying to turn into black energy and escape, but he failed, and instantly cried even harder...
Little Tangbao shouted "one, two, one, two" like he was playing tug-of-war, and pulled the baby ghost to his side little by little.
Liu Sheng, with his eyes wide open in the corner, looked at this horrifying scene and was so scared that he peed his pants!
Smelling the fishy smell in the room, Chuntai opened the door a crack with Tangbao's consent.
Xiao Tangbao stood there, looked out through the crack in the door, then turned to look at Concubine Li and Nanny Li.
"If you're even afraid of the little devil in my hand, then please leave first. I will take good care of Third Aunt!"
Eyes rolling, Concubine Li swallowed her saliva and stared at Tang Bao with wide eyes: "Good boy, you can summon ghosts and catch ghosts, but are you waiting for the ghost of the Liu family?"
Xiao Tangbao nodded without commenting.
Hearing this, Concubine Li put the amulet that Tang Bao had given her and that she always carried with her on Yun Miaoyi, and then carefully tucked the corner of the quilt for Yun Miaoyi.
He said with a serious look, "Living people are much scarier than ghosts. I'm not afraid. I'll stay by my daughter's side and won't go anywhere!"
After the words fell, she held Yun Miaoyi's hand tightly and patted the back of her hand, as if to comfort and encourage...
Nanny Li also stood upright beside the couch. She wouldn't leave either! She was old and about to be buried. She would go wherever her master was!
Besides, if one life needs to be exchanged for another later, her life is cheap, she is old, she has no children, no ties... In short, she is the most suitable!
Huh~
Two candles in the room went out instantly, and everyone except Tang Bao felt a pang of fear in their hearts.
Little Tangbao suddenly turned around and looked towards the door. A sharp light flashed in his deep pupils, and he said with a slight curve at the corner of his lips, "They're coming..."
