At the end of July of the fourth year of the Tang Dynasty.

The weather is unbearable, and the Taiji Palace is even more humid and stuffy. Because of this, Li Zhi issued an order to go to Jiucheng Palace to escape the summer from now on.

At the will, the most joyful thing is the small attendants in the entire palace. As soon as it was morning, everyone was in a hurry, packed everything up, and began to prepare for the move to Jiucheng Palace.

"You see, you see." Walking through the inner province where everyone was full of joy and triumphant, Qinghe shook his head and sighed: "See? See? As soon as they said that they had to go with the attendants, they were all happy! ”

"You're not right to say that." Minghe smiled: "This kind of thing is a good thing, who wouldn't want to?" ”

When Qinghe heard his brother say this, he pursed his lips and said no more.

Originally, they came today, and it was not the right time for them to say more—after all, there were many important things to be handled by them themselves.

But at such a time, there are people who don't know each other, and they keep talking to Qinghe that the apse of the cold palace is haunted, and they don't pester him to see it.

"Ridiculous! I didn't see that our family was busy! Where did the little fool come from, whose doorman, don't hurry up and take it away! "Qinghe is not as good as Minghe, as soon as the fire came up, he immediately sank his face and scolded.

At this moment, the few waiters on the left immediately stopped what they were doing and looked here. Then, a little waiter snorted, lost the work in his hand, and immediately ran over, pulled the little waiter who was pestering Qinghe and scolded: "You bastard! You don't have to get me into a lot of trouble again! Don't hurry up and apologize to Master Qing! Kill you little bastard......"

Listening to him scolding him uncleanly, Qinghe didn't like it, but before he could speak, he heard Minghe speak calmly: "The so-called upper is not right, then the lower is effective." If it weren't for you, how would he want to learn from here? Put away your words, our brothers don't like to hear this! ”

As soon as the words came out, the little waiter stopped talking, not daring to say more. Not only him, but none of the attendants in the courtyard who were full of crows dared to speak. just looked at the Qingming brothers in a daze.

Suddenly, the little waiter who was pestering Qinghe actually cried whining, and shouted in his mouth: "Is there a ghost in the first place!" Is there a ghost in the first place? The master was bad-hearted, and he just asked Xiao Wu'er to go to see the hall, is Xiao Wu'er afraid! But everyone is also afraid of Master Xiao Wu'er! So no one is in charge of Xiao Wu'er! Woowoo woo ......"

Qinghe was stunned, and before he could have a seizure, he heard Minghe ask interestingly: "You said your name is Xiao Wu'er?" ”

"Yes...... The little one is the fifth in the family, and he is also the fifth in the master's door, so he called the little five children......" wiped his tears, and the little attendant said: "Master Ming, you can trust the little five children once, there are really ghosts there, really!" And he's still a ghost! ”

"Devil?"

"Exactly, it's the one who wants to kill someone!"

As if he was afraid that Minghe would not believe it, the little waiter nodded, hummed and said, "That ghost, but he has an ugly face that kills people, and he also has a pair of strange little eyes." There are no eyeballs in the eye hole, but I am scared to death when I look at it! ”

Minghe saw that his face turned pale, and he didn't seem to be lying, and he couldn't help but be a little surprised for a while: "You are so conclusive, but you have seen it with your own eyes?" ”

"It's not just seeing it with your own eyes! In the past few days, he has nothing to do, always following Xiao Wu'er, and Xiao Wu'er is about to be scared to death! Master Ming, you and Master Qing have the treasure protection given by the queen's mother, and you must be fearless of these things. If you always pity Xiao Wu'er, you will accompany Xiao Wu'er to take a look! Xiao Wu'er is ...... I really don't dare to go in again! Now everyone has to follow His Majesty to Jiucheng Palace, leaving Xiao Wu'er alone to watch here...... Little Five...... Xiao Wu'er will really be killed here by this terrible ghost! Please! ”

Seeing that the child was about to cry, Minghe couldn't help but feel compassion in his heart, but what kind of identity he was, it was not good to really follow, so he glanced at a Jin Wuwei who was following him closely.

A moment later.

After seeing the hurried into the hall, there was a dignified Minghe, and Mei Niang, who was teaching Li Hong to read and write, raised her eyebrows: "Why do you look like this?" But what happened? ”

"Niangniang, the inner servant is in the secluded court, but there is something wrong." Minghe took a breath and said softly: "Fang Cai Minghe and Qinghe went to check the transfer of the driving matter, there is a little waiter, named Xiao Wu'er, who has been pestering Minghe, and said that he can see the ghost with his own eyes." Ming He didn't believe him, and his visible demeanor didn't seem to be fake, so he said that he didn't need to arrange some people to take a look. As a result, Jin Wuwei reported that there was indeed something strange in the Youyou Court - in the cold palace, there was a woman's cursing and crying voice, and I heard that the curse and crying was clearly a Lanling accent. ”

"Oh? This sounds, but it is ripped off Wang Shanrou's body. ”

Mei Niang smiled interestingly, but sat down, looked at Li Hongdao, and said: "Hong'er, although you are the crown prince, you shouldn't hide everything from you in the country, but after all, this matter involves your father and those old grievances." So ......"

Hong'er understood. It just so happened that there were some things to do in Hong'er's palace, and the queen mother, Hong'er took the first step. ”

Li Hong smiled, nodded, and turned to leave.

The gift was sent away by Li Hong, and Minghe couldn't help but praise Mei Niang: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is becoming more and more calm, acting in advance and retreating, and acting in a certain way." ”

"And you're getting more and more careless."

Mei Niang picked up the tea bowl and said softly: "How big is it, you are in such a hurry?" What did you just say was the name of that little waiter? ”

"Mother? Did the mother ask the little waiter? His name is Xiao Wu'er. ”

"This palace asks you, you have never been a good person to take care of things, why are you willing to help him?"

"That's because of him...... Ah......h

Minghe said halfway, and suddenly understood: "Niangniang, this is ......"

"The whole inner chamberlain province is up and down, like that child-like little attendant, how many are there, why are you the head of the six palaces in this hall, and the big inner chamberlain of the five grades, willing to listen to him? And are you willing to follow his wishes to check the so-called lonely ghosts and wild spirits? It's just because his nickname is somewhat similar to the name of his mother's family in this palace, and you will inevitably feel more close in your heart. Don't say it's you, it's Qinghe......"

Mei Niang put down the tea bowl in her hand and said lightly: "He's just afraid that it's a general reason?" After all, you two brothers are close to the palace, so they will naturally love the house and Wu, and they can't see such a little waiter, suffering with the same name as the palace. ”

"Yes, what Niangniang said is very true, but Minghe was confused for a while, and the little waiter ......"

"He's nothing, it's just a child, most likely someone really wants to make him think that there are ghosts in this Taiji Palace. It's just why these people chose him, and why did the ghost be Lanling...... I don't need to say much about it, you know it. ”

Mei Niang lowered her eyes, but said lightly.

Minghe nodded and smiled bitterly before replying: "Niangniang sees it, it's Minghe's carelessness." This is obviously to use the mouth of this little waiter to spread another rumor in the whole palace, saying that the ghost of the Wang family is not gone, but he wants to pester the little waiter, but it is because he has the same name as Niangniang. ”

Mei Niang smiled: "If it weren't for that, I'm afraid it would be rare for them to have some incidents again and attract the attention of the world." ”

"They? What does Niangniang mean is that someone is deliberately causing trouble in order to solve their own danger? Minghe was stunned, looked at Mei Niang and said softly: "That...... Who will it be......

Mei Niang got up, slowly walked to the bottom of the corridor, looked at the sky outside the hall, and said softly: "Minghe, you said that right now, up and down the court, who will be the most anxious in your heart?" ”

Minghe thought for a while, and said thoughtfully:

"Mother is saying...... Those Guan Long and the clan ministers who lost their support because Uncle Yuan was demoted? ”

"What about them? Who else will suffer great damage because of the matter of the eldest grandson? And what he asks for, he must remove this palace before it can be done? ”

Mei Niang looked back and smiled.

This made Minghe stunned, and thought hard: "But Niangniang, if someone is angry with Niangniang because Uncle Yuan was demoted, this makes sense, and you can find the next family." But if anyone has done any great damage because of this matter, and what he asks for must be removed from the mother in order to be accomplished...... But it doesn't seem to be? ”

"Who said there wasn't?"

Mei Niang asked with a smile: "Isn't there such a person who is anxious to make his daughter the second Wang?" ”

Immediately, he was clear and clear: "Shangguan's family?!" ”

"That's why Bengong said that you were really confused this time. As soon as you came in and said it, even Hong'er immediately heard that there was something wrong, but it was you, but you blindly entangled it. What a ......."

Mei Niang shook her head and sighed.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?"

If it weren't for that, how could he leave like this with his fun-loving and troublesome nature? Isn't it because I heard what you said that I had something to do with his good wife, so I rushed back in a hurry to have a long talk with his good wife all night? ”

Mei Niang smiled, but didn't say much.

Minghe blinked, half-believing - he believed that what Mei Niang said was absolutely true. After all, Li Hong is her own child, and she is also the person who knows Li Hong's character best. If she hadn't been 100% sure, she wouldn't have said that Li Hong had already understood the cause and effect of the matter.

He was suspicious......

Although Li Hong is the crown prince, he has always been very smart. But such a thing ......

He's just a kid after all, right?

With this in mind, he spent the rest of his time paying special attention to the affairs of the Youting Court. And soon, he once again confirmed how deep Mei Niang knew about his son.

That night, in the secluded court, Jin Wuwei, who was sent by him to keep an eye on the waiter named Xiao Wu'er, hurried back and said bluntly: "There is nothing to do tonight, and the little waiter will sleep peacefully all night." ”

In Minghe's heart, he was immediately determined, and a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
