36. The ghost does not go away

36. The ghost does not go away

Liu Zhaoyi was killed by someone?!

When Tang Ai heard the words of the little mouse, his palm broke out in a cold sweat, and his hand on the glazed tile slipped. Fortunately, she still had two feet hooked to the cornice, so she ensured that she did not pull a heel off the high wall.

The little mouse's shoulders trembled for a while, and they raised their eyes in fear to glance at the heights. Tang Ai hurriedly shrunk his neck, so that he was not discovered by the little mouse. The little mouse burned all the ingots and paper money, kicked out the brazier, and turned around and ran to the East Sixth Palace.

The little mouse wanted to earn money by gambling, so that he could find an old eunuch with a door to take sacrificial things and use them to pay tribute to Liu Zhaoyi. Tang Ai understood this reason, but he also felt that this little eunuch was not bad-hearted.

It seems that this Yongchun Palace is the residence of Liu Zhaoyi after being beaten into the cold palace, and it is indeed so cold that it makes people shiver.

Tang Ai was about to go back with the little mouse, but suddenly felt that something floated in front of his eyes, seeping into people's panic for no reason.

It was the middle of the night, and no matter how good Tang Ai's eyes were, he couldn't compare to the day, and he really didn't see what it was. She couldn't help but feel weak, forced herself to settle down, and flew down vigilantly.

However, at this moment, the thing that I didn't know what it was appeared in Tang Ai's field of vision again, and flashed into the Zhaoyang Palace, which was opposite the Yongchun Palace.

Could it be that there are really ghosts?!

Tang Ai's scalp was numb, and she gasped hard, trying to warn herself that the ghost theory was pure nonsense, even if she really saw something, it must be a living thing, not a ghost.

Zhaoyang Palace is the palace that Cai Fu talked about for many years, the huge West Sixth Palace boundary, and there are still living people living in other palaces, only Yongchun Palace and this Zhaoyang Palace do not have a trace of anger, as if with an evil spell, so that everyone who sets foot here has a hairy backbone, as if they have been hit by Gu.

The dark night enveloped the lifeless temple, as if you blinked your eyes and saw that black and white impermanence had captured an ownerless spirit.

In short, this place is more and more infiltrating.

Tang Ai pestle was under the palace gate of Zhaoyang Palace, and he glanced inside vigilantly. The dead trees in the Zhaoyang Palace were swaying, and the temple cast a huge shadow, but other than that, there was no trace of anyone entering.

At this moment, there was another gust of yin wind on the flat ground, and before Tang Ai finished fighting a spirit, he heard bursts of charm from the Zhaoyang Palace.

"Little smash - come in - little smash - come in - " The charm was in a long voice, fluttering and miserable, as if it had risen to the ground from the Netherworld.

Tang Ai floated into his ears by this ghost language, and he was stunned and couldn't move.

If the owner of this voice is really a ghost, it is also a ghost with great powers, and even she is called "Little Girl"!

Tang Ai was summoned by the ghost language, and her head suddenly became clear - the thing that floated in front of her just now was clearly in the form of a Taoist!

Not only the humanoid, but she thought about it carefully, the reason why she didn't really see it was because the humanoid was dressed in gray, as if it was one with the night.

Gray, gray...... Tang Ai was stunned for a moment, isn't the low-level eunuch uniform he was wearing the color of this gray!

In this way, that humanoid form is likely to be a very low-grade little eunuch, and this voice is estimated to have come from this little eunuch. But this is strange, which little eunuch would have such superb skills, and he can be more like a lonely soul and a wild ghost than a lonely ghost?

Also, what does he mean by asking Tang Ai to enter Zhaoyang Palace?

Tang Ai's hands were clenched into fists, and he stood at the gate of Zhaoyang Palace in disbelief, unable to move his steps.

She didn't move, but the one in Zhaoyang Palace did.

Facts have proved that Tang Ai's estimate is completely correct - the ghost is not a ghost, but a human, a living person with a king-sized size!

Tang Ai watched as the fire lit up in the Zhaoyang Palace, and a figure dressed as a small eunuch walked out carrying a lantern.

Little eunuchs are common, but small eunuchs with one hand are not so common.

That's right, the little eunuch is Xiao Yu.

It's Xiao Yu again!

He took off his guard uniform and changed into a eunuch shirt, and his disguise became really slippery.

Tang Ai didn't want to say a word.

She now vividly shows Xiao Yu what it means to be "angry and corrupt", what it means to be "angry and angry", and what it means to "have lightning and thunder in her eyes"!

Xiao Yu looked like a person who had nothing to do, and lifted the lantern to the side of Tang Ai's face: "Little smash, I called you for a long time, why don't you pay attention to people?" ”

Tang Aipi stiffly squeezed out a few words from between his teeth: "Ghost, talent, will, ride, reason, you." ”

"Don't be so nasty." Xiao Yu raised his eyebrows and smiled.

Tang Ai tried his best to suppress his anger: "This, one, playing, laughing, it's not funny at all!" Also, don't call me a dwarf! ”

"If I don't call you a dwarf, what do you call it? Do you want me to call you Grandpa Tang? ”

"Do you believe I tore your mouth apart?!"

Xiao Yu hurriedly made a gesture: "Don't be angry, don't be angry, you see, in order to make your heart more balanced, I also pretended to be a eunuch." ”

"Whatever you like! It's just three things, if you dare to pretend to be a ghost like this in the future, don't blame me for being unkind to you! ”

"Okay, okay, I'm absolutely abiding by the law." Xiao Yu grinned and leaned lazily against the palace wall, not at all like he had recognized the wrong Yan zhòng.

He teased Tang Ai three times and twice, and his behavior was extremely bad. If someone else treats Tang Ai like this, it would be strange if Tang Ai didn't beat that person all over the place looking for teeth. But now her chest has risen and fallen for a while, and when she looks at Xiao Yu again, she is not so angry.

Xiao Yu must have his reason for appearing here so coincidentally.

Tang Ai saw him sigh shallowly, and squinted at the plaque on the gate of Zhaoyang Palace.

"Tang Ai, do you know what kind of place this Zhaoyang Palace is?" Xiao Yu's eyes seemed to be mixed with some kind of Xiao Suo's thoughts, "This palace used to be the residence of the concubine. More than ten years ago, Concubine Qi was also the favorite concubine of the emperor. ”

"Pray for the concubine?" Tang Ai coldly remembered that Xiao Chengyi had also mentioned her and the four princes, "You know a lot about things in the court." ”

"It's just knowing." Xiao Yu muttered to himself in a low voice, and glanced at Tang Ai again, "There are many things in the palace, and they can't be explained clearly in one sentence or two. Just like just now, if you hadn't seen the little mouse worshiping Liu Zhaoyi, you wouldn't have known that Liu Zhaoyi's death might be strange. ”

Tang Ai glared: "Wait! I follow the little mouse, and you follow me?! ”

Xiao Yu hurriedly shook his head: "Don't get me wrong, don't get me wrong, when I arrived here, you and he hadn't come yet." ”

Tang Ai frowned. Yes, Xiao Yu hasn't said why he came to the edge of the West Sixth Palace.

Xiao Yu said again: "If I tell you, I just want to come to this Zhaoyang Palace to have a look, do you believe it or not?" ”

Tang Ai snorted: "It has nothing to do with me what you want to do, I just want to remind you that trespassing in the Forbidden Palace is definitely a capital crime!" ”

Xiao Yu shrugged, didn't say much, and stepped over the big threshold with one foot and walked to Zhaoyang Palace.

Tang Ai didn't know what he wanted to do, so he hesitated for a while and followed.

Xiao Yu stood in front of the main hall, slowly looked around, and gently pushed open the door of the palace.

This Zhaoyang Palace has been uninhabited for many years, and it stands to reason that the ash should have been three feet thick, but it is very strange that not only is there no dust in the main hall, but the furnishings can even be called spotless.

Xiao Yu walked around the inner edge of the main hall, but stopped suddenly, not giving Tang Ai any warning, Tang Ai was following him tightly, his chin slammed on his shoulder.

Xiao Yu gritted his teeth and turned around, looking very painful: "Trespassing into the palace is a capital crime, do you want to die with me?" ”

"Y-you give me less!" Tang Ai choked on a mouthful of old blood, and couldn't find the words to refute it.

Xiao Yu poked the lantern into Tang Ai's hand and smiled casually: "Help me lift it for a while." ”

Zhaoyang Palace lost a fire a few days ago, although the fire was extinguished later, but a corner of the palace has been burned down a lot, and there is constantly cold wind blowing into the palace from the broken windows. The firelight swayed under Tang Ai's hands, illuminating a long shadow of Xiao Yu, rippling and ghostly.

Xiao Yu's eyes were filled with almost inaudible worry, his fingertips rubbed over the tables and chairs in the palace, and whispered: "It is impossible for this palace to catch fire by itself for no reason, to tell the truth, I came here to find out who set fire that day." ”

Tang Ai asked suspiciously: "This palace has been abandoned for so many years, how can anyone come here to set it on fire?" Even if someone sets a fire here for no reason, what does it have to do with you? ”

"That's a good question, what kind of person am I, and what does it have to do with this Zhaoyang Palace......" Xiao Yu lowered his eyes slowly, without a trace, without showing sadness.

He sat down at the table, smiled lightly and raised his eyebrows at Tang Ai: "I'm tired of walking, rest for a while, you can also come and sit." ”

Tang Ai was stunned and put the lantern on the table: "You...... Leg pain? ”

"If you walk for a long time, it won't be very comfortable." Xiao Yu casually thumped his right knee.

"You know that you are different from ordinary people, and you still have to run around, and now you are reaping the consequences." Tang Ai blurted out.

Xiao Yu originally lowered his head, but after Tang Ai said this, he suddenly leaned his face closer to Tang Ai: "Are you feeling sorry for me?" ”

There was a faint smell of sugar on his body, and the breath he exhaled was also cool and cool, and his eyes were deep and clear.

Tang Ai only felt that his ears were hot, and his heart seemed to be pulled hard by something. At this moment, she actually felt that Xiao Yu was right, he was disabled, after all, he was not like ordinary people, and it was indeed a little distressing to her.

But the words that came out of her mouth were very different from what she thought in her heart: "I feel sorry for you? You don't pretend to be amorous there, I think you still keep yourself for your beautiful lady who feels distressed! ”

Xiao Yu rolled his eyes, the whites of his eyes were more exposed than the blacks of his eyes, he didn't answer for a while, his fingers fiddled with the handle of the lantern twice, and then said: "By the way, I heard that Xiao Chengyi was grounded by the emperor Lao'er a while ago, do you know why?" ”

"What about the inner courtyard of the imperial court, where will I know."

"Then I will sue you, Xiao Chengyi was grounded because he stayed in front of this Zhaoyang Palace for half a moment. There is an unwritten rule in the palace that the concubine is not to be said, and who is unlucky. ”

"You can't mention Concubine Qi Niangniang...... Why? Tang Ai remembered Xiao Chengyi's face when he remembered the concubine and the four princes.

Xiao Yu looked at the firelight, his smile was no longer smiling, and he turned to say quietly: "It is rumored that Concubine Qi Niangniang is a descendant of the Beiyan royal family, her real surname is Murong, and she is close to Emperor Lao'er is actually intending to subvert my Great Heaven/Dynasty, and seeking to restore the country is to be given death by Emperor Lao'er." Hehe, this kind of old thing from many years ago, where can anyone say whether it is true or false. The person who knows this matter best is probably only the emperor Lao'er. ”

The flames in the lantern gradually subsided, and in the blink of an eye, the sky was almost bright.

Tang Ai's current identity is a little slave serving his master, and it will definitely not be possible to rush back to Yufu Palace before everyone wakes up. She left the door of Zhaoyang Palace and ran all the way back, but Xiao Yu was also clinging to her.

"Xiao Yu, why are you still following me?"

"If you don't follow anyone, follow whom. In fact, as soon as I wore this outfit, we were already colleagues. ”

"Colleague?!"

"Hey, that's right. To tell you the truth, I'm going to Yufu Palace on an errand too. ”
