Chapter 2 Wenxiang Temple

After this incident, the whole convoy arrived at the gate of the Prime Minister's Mansion safely, Mrs. Mei took Nangong Rou into the courtyard that had been arranged for her, Nangong Rou glanced at the inscription on the plaque, smelling the incense courtyard.

According to her investigation data, the former owner of the Prime Minister's Mansion was the mansion of a military general in the previous dynasty, and after the defeat of the previous dynasty, this mansion was rewarded to the Nangong family, and this Wenxiang Courtyard could not be demolished and rebuilt because of rumors that it was haunted, so it was abandoned in the Prime Minister's Mansion for many years.

Mrs. Mei quickly left after explaining a few words by the gate of the courtyard, Xiao Lu followed behind Nangong Rou and entered the Wenxiang Courtyard with a hard head, her heart was full of chagrin, why was she so unlucky, but she was chosen to serve this substitute ghost!

There are obvious traces of weeding in the incense courtyard, and the people seem to want to do it hastily, and there are still a pile of broken copper and iron in many places, and when the door is opened, the house is just swept with dust, and a few new pieces of furniture have been added, and even the cobwebs are still hanging on the beams.

Just as he was about to go in, a gray mouse quickly passed in front of Nangong Rou's eyes, and Xiao Lu who was behind him screamed in fright.

Nangong Rou looked back at Xiao Lu, who was still not reacting in fright, and threw out an embroidery needle in his hand and steadily sank into the head of the mouse just now, killing him with one blow.

Nangong Rou walked over and pinched the rat's tail and walked in front of Xiao Lu, and said while swaying: "Xiao Lu, you see how cute this little mouse is, you touch it." ”

Xiao Lu looked at the dead mouse dangling in front of her eyes and wanted to say something, but she suddenly looked behind Nangong Rou, screamed and immediately fled in horror: "Help! ”

Seeing Xiao Lu running out of the courtyard in a panic, Nangong Rou looked back behind her with some confusion, and there was nothing in the empty room.

Nangong Rou threw away the dead rats boringly, and opened the windows one by one to ventilate, the musty smell of the room was so bad that she was almost out of breath.

Although it is a little dilapidated here, Nangong Rou does not dislike it, anyway, she will not live here permanently, rummaging through the cabinets to find some incense and lighting it, Nangong Rou lay down on the bed that has been laid with futon, and began to sleep, there is still a rich nightlife waiting for her at night!

On the other side, Xiao Lu, who ran out, bumped into Mrs. Mei's personal maid Sandalwood, and Sandalwood pushed Xiao Green away with a little disgust and said, "What do you look like in a panic!" What happened? Shouldn't you be where the second miss is right now? ”

Xiao Lu saw Sandalwood as if she had grasped a life-saving straw, grabbed Sandalwood's sleeve tightly, swallowed her saliva in fear and said, "Sister Sandalwood, there are ghosts!" There are ghosts! I just saw a figure standing behind the second lady in the Wenxiang Courtyard, and the Wenxiang Courtyard can't live in it, Sister Sandalwood! ”

Sandalwood squinted slightly after hearing this, and she soothed: "Where are the cows, ghosts, snakes, and gods in this world, you must have seen it wrong, as the second miss's maid, how can you leave the second miss alone over there?" Now hurry back and apologize to the second lady! ”

"What kind of second lady is she!" Xiao Lu's back chilled when she thought of the figure she had just seen, and now Sandalwood didn't believe her words, and said angrily: "Who doesn't know that this Nangong Rou is back to marry the Living Hades for the fourth young lady!" The living king of Hades is destined to be evil, whoever goes will die! She ......"

"Smack!"

Before Xiao Lu finished speaking, Sandalwood slapped Xiao Lu in the face!

"Master's business, how can you chew the root of your tongue in the back! Now hurry up and get me back to the Smelling Fragrance Courtyard! Keep your mouth shut! Before I hear you say that, I'll let you go to the true Hades! ”

Sandalwood's slap can be regarded as fanning Xiao Green back to reality, Xiao Lu didn't dare to argue with Sandalwood, and responded with a cower: "Yes...... Sister Sandalwood. ”

After Sandalwood left, Xiao Lu was entangled in whether to return to Wenxiang Courtyard, and after hesitating for a moment, she still decided not to return to Wenxiang Courtyard, anyway, Nangong Rou was not taken seriously, and no one knew if she would not go back for a while.

In the Shenyu Courtyard, Sandalwood walked quickly to Mrs. Mei, who was lying on the soft collapse and closed her eyes to recuperate, and whispered to Mrs. Mei what Xiao Lu had just said in Mrs. Mei's ear.

After hearing this, Mrs. Mei rubbed her temples a little irritably and said: "Send someone to Wenxiang Courtyard to have a look, I originally thought that Nangong Rou would not live in the mansion for too long, just give her a broken courtyard to live in, why is it still haunted, Sandalwood, you pay more attention to the side of Wenxiang Courtyard, this Nangong Rou must not die before getting married!"

"Yes, slave understands."

Sandalwood responded, and found two secret guards in the house to keep an eye on Nangong Rou, only some old people in the house know that the Xiangyuan is haunted, and the Prime Minister's Mansion was renovated, and all the yards were demolished and rebuilt, but this Wenxiang Courtyard, the craftsmen who went into the construction all had accidents, either crazy or sick, and they all said that it was haunted, which made people panic, and the prime minister ordered the Wenxiang Courtyard to be abandoned until today.

Nangong Rou, who was sleeping soundly, suddenly heard two footsteps, she closed her eyes and pretended not to wake up, she turned over lazily, and her breathing rate did not change.

The two secret guards outside the door couldn't help but complain when they saw Nangong Rou sleeping so soundly: "This second young lady is really big-hearted, and she can fall asleep in this broken ground." ”

Another secret guard smiled: "This second young lady has been living in the deep mountains and old forests for eighteen years, and it is estimated that this kind of environment is already luxurious for her!" Hahaha. ”

The two secret guards left with a smile, although they were asked to keep an eye on Nangong Rou, but the two of them had the confidence of a fan, and felt that the sleeping Nangong Rou was like a boiled duck, and they couldn't fly, so the two happily decided to go out and come back.

After the secret guard left, Nangong Rou opened her eyes, this is sending someone to spy on her?

Nangong Rou silently covered herself with the quilt and continued to sleep, thinking in her heart that she hoped that these two fools would not harm her at night.

At dusk, the prime minister returned to the mansion, and did not mention that he wanted to see Nangong Rou, or at the dinner table, Mrs. Mei said: "Master, Rou'er is back, don't you see you?" ”

Nangong Wei put down the chopsticks in his hand and said: "Madam, you don't have to tell me about this kind of trivial matter, you can do it yourself, anyway, as long as she replaces Qing'er to marry the prince, she can do whatever she wants, just rely on her, alas, if we are the prince's people, how can this kind of good thing of marriage with the royal family fall on Nangong Rou's head!" ”

Mrs. Mei never asked about the court, but she knew that the current court was divided into three factions, the emperor, the prince and King Ling, and the prince asked for a marriage undoubtedly because he wanted to accept the prime minister for his own use, but the prince was loyal to the emperor, so he was naturally unwilling, so he thought of taking Nangong Rou back and marrying him to fool the prince, so that even if the prime minister and the prince had a falling out, only Nangong Rou would die.

The world only knows that the prince is tyrannical and is known as the living king of Hades, and they all regret the daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion who is about to marry, but they don't know how many interests are involved.
