Chapter Seventy-Four: The Soul Is Restless
However, driven by curiosity, Yuan Ziyan still had the courage to take a few steps forward, and after a fixed look, his heart settled down, and he was sure that it was a person and not a ghost.
There was another woman who was burning paper for the princess, and there seemed to be words in her mouth.
It turns out that there is also true love in the palace, and it is good if people are gone. Yuan Ziyan immediately had a good impression of this woman, and took a few steps forward, feeling more and more familiar that this back was very familiar.
Hey, isn't it Zhou Shanshan, the toad of Zhou Da? Why did she come, and she didn't see how good her friendship with the princess was!
Although Yuan Ziyan couldn't figure it out, when she thought of Zhou Shanshan's bad behavior, she had a bad idea, hehe, just take the opportunity to scare her.
Just do it when she thinks of it, Yuan Ziyan lifted her skirt, tiptoed over, stood behind Zhou Shanshan, swayed from side to side and quietly blew into Zhou Shanshan's neck.
Zhou Shanshan suddenly noticed that there was someone behind her, the princess was newly mourned, she was already sweating in her heart, her face turned white with fright, she didn't dare to turn her head back, and asked in a trembling voice: "Yes, who is it?!" ”
Cut, where did this guts, where did the usual bravado go? Yuan Ziyan couldn't help laughing, and said in a calm voice: "I'm Zhen'er, Zhen'er!" ”
Jane?!
That Zhen'er who hit the wall at the gate of the palace? Zhou Shanshan couldn't hold back any longer, let out a frightened shout from her mouth, and staggered forward.
Zhou Shanshan ran, Yuan Ziyan chased, and her running speed is not comparable to ordinary people, how fast Zhou Shanshan runs, Yuan Ziyan follows many pieces, Zhou Shanshan slowed down, Yuan Ziyan also kept a certain distance, as if the ghost was not gone.
"Good Zhen'er, you committed suicide, you can't blame me, if you want to blame Yuan Ziyan, she is the one who affected you!" Zhou Shanshan couldn't run anymore, so she fell to the ground, squatting on the ground with her hands covering her face, and didn't dare to raise her head.
Trouble?
Hearing this word, Yuan Ziyan couldn't help sighing, and he didn't have the heart to pretend to be a ghost. Hey, maybe it's really the case, if he didn't travel to the Sui Dynasty, Zhen'er and the princess might not die, and in less than three months, two lives related to him had already left, which made people feel very depressed.
Hearing the familiar sigh, Zhou Shanshan was puzzled, slowly raised her head, looked through her fingers, and suddenly became angry, it turned out that it was not an unjust soul, but Yuan Ziyan!
"Yuan Ziyan, pretending to be a ghost in the middle of the night, what do you want to do!" Zhou Shanshan's voice immediately became a lot louder, which provoked Yuan Ziyan to be disdainful for a while, and she changed her face so quickly, she hugged her arms and asked, "I haven't asked you yet, don't sleep in the room, what kind of fire do you run outside?" ”
This, Zhou Shanshan was stunned for a while, and it took a long time to say: "What's the matter with you, I can't sleep at night, come out for a walk!" ”
"Let's go? I'm not afraid of ghosts! Yuan Ziyan's hands formed into eagle claws, and he pounced forward, Zhou Shanshan was nervous and did not watch out, and immediately screamed in fright, so happy that Yuan Ziyan leaned forward and closed: "Look at your broken courage, according to me, it is because the princess is dead, and the gold, silver and jewelry in her house have not been cleaned up, and you want to take advantage of the fire to rob!" ”
Bah! Zhou Shanshan rolled her eyes vigorously and said unhappily: "I have a lot of money, so why worry about this dead man's things." What's more, the princess's grace is not prosperous, and it is the period of parade, what rare treasures can there be? ”
"yes, then why are you here to eat?"
Zhou Shanshan glanced at Yuan Ziyan carefully, and sighed again: "Sometimes I really envy you for being heartless, happy every day, which is enviable." No, I met the princess once, and I was shocked to hear that she had passed away and couldn't sleep, so I came to give her a ride. ”
I see, this sentence made Yuan Ziyan's heart soften, I didn't expect Zhou Da toad to also have a kind side, maybe the bad behavior she showed before was the result of pampering, in the indifferent and lonely palace, Zhou Shanshan should have realized the value of true feelings.
"What are you doing here?"
"Actually, I'm here to give her a ride." Yuan Ziyan's tone softened.
Oh? Zhou Shanshan raised her eyebrows, wanting to say a few ugly words, but for some reason, she didn't say it in the end, and the two former enemies stood opposite each other like this, until a wild cat jumped out, and they both remembered the purpose of this trip.
Before the two men with their own hearts came to the princess's courtyard together, they drew a circle with the earth, and then burned all the paper money, and there was no wind at all, and the smoke and dust of the burning did not drift to the sky, and it was lifeless.
Yuan Ziyan still couldn't help shedding a few tears, in his thirties, in his own era, it was the age of entrepreneurial struggle, but unfortunately the princess died so unjustly, and couldn't help choking up: "Princess, although I don't even know what your name is until now, I know that you must be very unwilling." No matter what, this is a reality that cannot be changed, whether you are willing or not has nothing to do with this ending, the world is impermanent, and everyone has such a day. Your Majesty has posthumously crowned you as a concubine, and I heard that you can be buried with a lot of things, presumably you will be honored after your death, and you can also take care of your family, and they will be proud of you. ”
"Yuan Ziyan, do you say that the princess can hear you?" Zhou Shanshan looked around nervously and suddenly asked.
"I hope so." Yuan Ziyan continued: "Princess, I still have a sense of justice, no matter who it is, I will find out the murderer for you and avenge you." Princess, you can go with peace of mind, don't be nostalgic for the red dust, the world is bitter, it's boring. ”
As soon as he finished speaking, a sudden gust of wind blew the door of the princess's courtyard creaked, like a man's whimper, and the fire on the ground suddenly jumped up a section by the wind, and then spit out the tongue of fire and threw himself at the two girls.
Zhou Shanshan's face changed color in fright, and she squatted on the ground, Yuan Ziyan also hurriedly covered her face with her sleeves, and then quickly dragged Zhou Shanshan back a few steps.
Zhou Shanshan held Yuan Ziyan's hand tightly, not caring that her skirt was stained on the ground, and said in a trembling voice: "Ziyan, don't say it anymore, it's too scary!" ”
"Don't be afraid! It's nothing more than the wind rising! Yuan Ziyan didn't exclude Zhou Shanshan once, but kindly patted her cold little hand and comforted: "As long as we have a clear conscience, no one will hurt us." ”
"But I'm really scared. The princess has gone away, and it was your chatter that reminded her of the pain of her life! Zhou Shanshan frowned and complained.
"How is that possible!" Yuan Ziyan really didn't believe in that evil anymore, stood up and crossed his waist and said, "Princess, your death has nothing to do with us. Look at you, you scared Zhou Da toads. If you really understand why you are dying, let this wind stop! ”
Saying that, the wind seemed to have really stopped, Yuan Ziyan just wanted to be proud, but when he looked forward with Zhou Shanshan's frightened eyes, he couldn't smile anymore.
The wind did not stop, but grew stronger and stronger, and all gathered in one place, and quickly formed a small whirlwind in front of the princess's door, and then mixed with dust and fallen leaves on the ground, as well as the crumbs of burning paper, and actually hit in the direction where they were.
The two couldn't dodge, they were blown unsteady on their feet, and Yuan Ziyan had sand in his eyes and couldn't open his eyes.
"Purple smoke, purple smoke! I'm so scared, let's go! Zhou Shanshan almost collapsed and shouted, she felt that Yuan Ziyan had definitely summoned the ghost.
Yuan Ziyan also felt very depressed, this wind can't be sooner or later, but at this time, it is really embarrassing and unlucky to target herself.
There was no need to stay, so I had to leave quickly, but I was very distressed in my heart, and even had a thought, could it be that the princess's unjust soul refused to forgive herself, so she used the power of the wind to vent her anger on herself?
"It's all your fault, you provoked the princess!" Zhou Shanshan complained all the way.
"What, it could be that the princess wants me to avenge her, but it's just expressed in this way!" Yuan Ziyan said stiffly.
You?! Zhou Shanshan looked disdainful, but she couldn't say a word of ridicule, because she was so frightened that she couldn't stand anymore, Yuan Ziyan sent her back to the room with kindness.
And Zhou Shanshan even forgot to say thank you, stumbled back to the room, and ordered the palace maid to light all the lights and not to put them out.
As for well, sluts are hypocritical. However, Yuan Ziyan didn't care, and trotted all the way back to his room, always feeling like a ghost behind him, anyway, tonight's experience was too weird.
It's so depressed, and it's not the person I killed, even if it's because of me, then both of us are victims, princess, princess, you shouldn't chase me. And you can't even scare Zhou Shanshan, people didn't harm you.
Yuan Ziyan closed his eyes and chattered for a while, the doors and windows stopped ringing, probably because the wind had stopped. The sky was already slightly white, Yuan Ziyan couldn't sleep anymore, and waited until everyone had gotten up, and then the large team continued to set off towards Daxing Palace along the original road.
Finally going back, many people secretly breathed a sigh of relief, came happily, returned in disappointment, and almost didn't die in Daizhou, but finally saved their lives.
Yuan Ziyan was not sure, but he still secretly found Li Chunfeng and asked him what it would mean if it was a violent wind in front of the courtyard on the day of a person's death?
Li Chunfeng replied very simply, indicating that this person died very unwillingly, and most of it was because of the presence of enemies. Of course, these are traditional superstitious claims, and their credibility has yet to be verified.
Hearing this, Yuan Ziyan became even more depressed, it seemed that the princess was unwilling to forgive herself. Hey, you're obviously looking for the wrong creditor, is the real murderer deliberately pretending to be himself?
Xu Tingfu, Xu Tingfu, it seems that you have put a lot of thought into framing me! Yuan Ziyan naturally hated the biggest suspect Xu Tingfu, and at the same time missed him very much, if only he were by his side.
Why? The reason is that Xu Tingfu, as the biggest suspect in the murder of the princess, was put in a prison car and followed behind, so all the work fell on Yuan Ziyan, serving tea and pouring water, arranging meals, etc., and even Yang Guang also developed a habit of taking ideas with Yuan Ziyan.
Yuan Ziyan was busy from beginning to end, he didn't know the taste of food, and he was so tired that he fell asleep at night, and he couldn't detect the bumps on the road.
