Chapter 68 Sending Merit
The sky was a crab-shell green. After a whole night of tossing and turning, the sky finally began to dawn.
Little Tangbao, who couldn't sleep because of the noise in his ears, couldn't stand it anymore. He suddenly opened his eyes and sat up.
The ghosts around this imperial city are truly different. Each one is incredibly ferocious, hideously ugly, and even dares to show up in broad daylight from time to time! ?
The little guy looked up at his head and closed his eyes tightly. The tiny person acted like an old-fashioned person and sighed heavily.
Not long after...
She glanced at the group of ugly ghosts beside the bed and even outside the window, and said angrily, "It's already dawn, why don't you leave? Do you still want to be struck by lightning?"
Last night, several bolts of thunder struck down from the sky, and many evil spirits, young and old, were cut off from their reincarnation paths.
Thinking of the horrific scene of their collective souls being torn apart, the ghosts immediately shrank back half a step.
But they still stubbornly refused to leave, and every ghost looked at her with inquiry in their eyes.
"This child can indeed see us, and she's quite powerful...but can she really help us?"
"Seriously, seriously! I saw with my own eyes a powerful ghost circling around her, teaching her skills. I also saw with my own eyes that she could liberate the souls of the dead!"
"Think about the way she attracted the lightning earlier. I think this girl must have some incredible background! Even though she's still young, I believe she'll be able to help us sooner or later! And being close to her really makes me feel warm..."
Xiao Tangbao couldn't help rolling his eyes.
They were warm, but with so many ghosts in her house, the cold and gloomy feeling was almost freezing her to death!
It's really annoying!!
Her eyes turned, and she stretched out her little hand tremblingly...
A ghost immediately yelled with a trembling voice: "She, she, she is going to attract thunder!"
The ghosts were horrified and knelt silently. In just a moment, even the evil ghosts with horrifying death appearances became more restrained. They all lowered their heads and were very respectful.
Tang Bao: “…” Hmm?
If no one offends me, I will not offend anyone!
Ghosts won't bother Tang Bao, and Tang Bao will never make thunder randomly... After all, Tang Bao is also afraid of being struck by lightning!
Little Tangbao was confused and quietly pulled his hand back into the quilt.
Seeing this, the old ghost in eunuch robes, who saw that she could save the souls of the dead, raised his head tremblingly and floated forward.
"Your Highness, I had the honor of witnessing Your Highness display her divine power in the Chenji Palace. I also heard that Your Highness wanted to accumulate merit, so she summoned all the ghosts to bring merit to you!"
After saying this, the old eunuch, who had a pale face and no beard and whose death was not too ugly, did not forget to kowtow to little Tangbao, but as soon as he bent down, his head fell off.
Xiao Tangbao's heart skipped a beat, but she didn't yell. Her big eyes were full of confusion. "Send merit to me? How do you do it?"
Ghosts, you look at me, I look at you...
A male ghost who looked like a scholar was the first to speak: "My Lady, I am a retainer of the Yongping Marquis's Mansion. My last name is Xu and my name is Kui."
"My beloved thought I had abandoned her and has been feeling vexed ever since. After marrying someone else, her life hasn't been smooth or happy, and she's constantly facing crises... Could you, Your Highness, please pass on a message to her on my behalf?"
Before he could finish, another young female ghost rushed in and said:
"My Lady, I was the maidservant in the Third Prince's mansion. I caught the Third Prince's wife committing adultery and ended up dying..."
"I have hidden a great deal of gold, silver, and jewels in the Third Prince's mansion. They were all given to me by the Third Prince's wife as a token of silence. Could you, my Lady, avenge me and retrieve all the treasures and return them to my family?"
Tang Bao: “?” Wait, wait, adultery is not a nice word! Who did she say committed adultery with whom?
Just as the little fellow was about to ask more carefully, a childish voice with a crying tone rang out hurriedly:
"Your Highness, I am the grandson of the Minister of Justice. Could you please go see my mother for me? She worries about me every day, her hair has turned white, and her eyes are almost blind from crying."
"And me and me!"
"My son is unfilial and wants me to marry my brother's wife! Please, Princess..."
"Go away!"
"You old woman... what's the big deal about my brother marrying my brother's wife? My son wants to inherit his father's wife, isn't this more important than your business?!"
“…”
The bedroom was filled with chatter and instantly exploded. Except for a few ghosts who suddenly started fighting, the remaining ghosts all begged Xiao Tangbao for help.
The little guy's brows knitted tighter and tighter, and he quickly raised his hand: "Stop!"
The ghosts immediately fell silent.
A pair of ghost eyes, with tears in them, stared at the adorable little baby on the couch without blinking, fearing that she would refuse.
Xiao Tangbao glanced down at the group of ghosts condescendingly. She really wanted a lot of merit... Since it was delivered to her doorstep, the result would be another matter. She might as well give it a try to help them.
only……
"I can try to help you, but you said too much in one breath, I can't remember!"
The ghosts breathed a sigh of relief, their expressions filled with gratitude.
Because of the obsession in their hearts, they have stayed in the human world for too long!
If this continues, let alone reincarnation in the underworld, I am afraid that due to the heavy resentment, I will step into a place of no return and end up with a horrible end of my soul being torn apart.
A ghost immediately suggested, "How about the princess write down all our wishes on paper and pen, and deal with them according to their importance?"
"Let's just draw lots!" a ghost said dissatisfiedly, "Drawing lots is fairer!"
“…”
Seeing that they were about to quarrel again, Xiao Tangbao held his mouth tightly and his shoulders slumped instantly, "I'm uneducated and I can't write!"
As she said this, she closed her eyes, hugged her arms and lay down again, as if she had suffered a great injustice.
Seeing that the little guy was so angry, the little ghost who was hanging upside down on the bed like a bat immediately hid himself.
The ghosts looked at each other in bewilderment, thinking that the child's face really looked like the sky in June, it changed in an instant!
Everyone was wondering how to appease this little ancestor in front of them? How to help her remember the ghosts' requests?
Suddenly, the old woman's laughter could be heard from outside the door...
The door was pushed open with a creak, and the temperature in the bedroom instantly became much warmer.
The old empress dowager came in slowly. Besides Aunt Yao who was supporting her, there were two little girls who looked about five or six years old following behind them.
"What strange dream did our Tangbao have again? My precious great-grandson wants to go to school?"
Go to school?
A trace of panic flashed in the little girl's eyes. She quickly sat up and waved her hands at the empress dowager: "No, no, no! Tangbao hates studying the most!" The teachers' lectures are nagging and boring. She doesn't want to go to school!
Huh?
Suddenly, Xiao Tangbao tilted his head and looked behind the Queen Mother...
Looking at the two little girls who were dressed almost identically and looked exactly the same, she suddenly felt a little curious.
"Great-grandmother, are they sei?"
