Chapter 309: A Yin Marriage Woman
Li Tao took out something from his arms and handed it to Li Longji: "This is the money ticket of Hongfu Money Village in Chang'an City, a total of 300,000 yuan, you can withdraw it at any time." β
Li Longji hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Tao'er, I can't accept this!" β
"Third uncle, you are not single-handedly like before, you now have your own team, you want to win people's hearts, if you want to achieve great things, how can you do it without money in your hands?" Speaking of this, Li Tao said with a smile: "Third uncle, don't forget, I can make more money than you, so you can use it with confidence!" β
Li Longji took the money ticket, glanced at Li Tao deeply, and didn't say anything.

It was late at night, dark clouds were rolling over the Yongyi Marquis's Mansion, and the air was so dull that it seemed to be still.
As usual, Xiao led a group of guards for the last inspection before going to bed.
"Plop-" An unusual voice came from the room, forcing everyone to stop, it was Madame's bedroom.
Xiao Cheng hesitated, swept under the window, and asked softly, "Madam, are you sleeping?" It was pitch black inside, he asked, just to make sure there was any accident.
After waiting for a while, but not answering, Xiao Cheng's heart tightened, and he raised his voice and called again: "Madam!" But it was still silent.
Now he could not hold his breath, and slammed the door open, and the guards swarmed in, and the whole room was illuminated in an instant with a burst of torches. Then they saw a strange sceneβthe lady was lying limply on the ground with her eyes closed, holding a painting in her hand. It depicts an impermanent ghost with a blood-red tongue and a long hat with a pointed tip. It's not so much a portrait. It's more like a ghost talisman, because the painting is also full of strange and illegible characters.
His wife's surname is Li, and she married Yongyi Marquis Cui Wenli two years ago. Although the husband and wife can't talk about raising their eyebrows, they are also very affectionate. Under normal circumstances, outsiders are not allowed to enter and leave Madame's inner house casually, and the guards of the Hou Mansion can only routinely patrol once a night.
Xiao Cheng saw the ghost talisman and suddenly remembered something. Seeing that the back window was open, he flew up to the opposite roof. Not far away, I saw a white shadow fleeing in the direction of the garden! Mrs. Yongyihou was killed in the mansion, and he, the chief of the guard, could not escape the blame, if he let the murderer escape again. He can't explain it to Hou Ye. At that moment, he violently raised his true anger. Crossing the ridges of roofs, arrows chased after them.
The white shadow noticed it, and the faster it became, the two of them entered the garden one after another. Xiao Cheng gradually saw that the man was wearing a white silk dress and holding a palace bun. He couldn't help but shudder as he remembered the horrible rumors of lately.
Two months ago. Yun Waitian, the boss of Zuichun Building, died mysteriously, and it is said that there is such a drawing talisman in his hand. Subsequently. Han Qi, the imperial historian of the left capital, Chen Qianli, the scholar of Zhongshushe, and Xu Jizu, the chief of the ordnance superintendent, died violently one after another, and the cause of death of these people is unknown, and next to their corpses, there is such a drawing.
Some people say that in the place where Han Qi of the Zuodu Imperial History fell, he once saw a woman wearing a white court dress, no matter how she dressed and looked, she looked like Pei Feng, the princess of the Yin marriage, who died violently a few years ago.
Speaking of Pei Feng, not many people may know, but if it is said that Prince Yide's concubine is married to the princess, everyone knows it. Prince Yide's original name was Li Chongrun, the eldest son of Zhongzong Li Xian and the eldest grandson of Wu Zetian. His death was not due to disease or calamity, but to man-made cruelty.
Li Chongrun is handsome, suave, has both ability and political integrity, is excellent in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and has courage and knowledge, and is open-minded, and has won the respect and respect of Li Xian and his ministers. However, the bad thing is that he has so many "good", and the Wu family is afraid that he will compete with him for the world, so he ordered this talented and beautiful grandson to be executed. Li Chongrun was only 19 years old at the time. Li Chongrun died, Li Xian mourned, and united the ministers to promote him as the crown prince, and was named "Yide". One is to love the prince; The second is also a silent rebellion against the Wu family's indiscriminate killing and arbitrariness. The Wu family was afraid of his prestige, and was forced to bury Li Chongrun as the crown prince next to the Qianling Tomb, and the deceased daughter of the minister Pei Cui Pei Feng Xu was married to the yin and buried together within a coffin.
All of a sudden, rumors spread that Pei Feng was unwilling to marry her, and her soul was not gone, and now she came back to harm people.
Thinking of this, Xiao Cheng became more and more frightened, but when he thought about it, if she was told to escape, his head would have to move. Horizontal and vertical is dead, so I understand it, and I pounced on it and hugged the person from behind, but I felt that her long skirt was sticky and wet, exuding a smell of rotting corpses. This kind of smell that did not belong to a living person made Xiao Cheng's stomach spasm, and in an instant, he seemed to cross yin and yang and break into the gate of hell. The man bent his elbow and slammed into his lower abdomen, and while he was in his belly, he slipped away like a fish and turned around.
"Pei Feng?" Xiao Cheng stared at her miserable white face, beads of sweat the size of beans rolling down.
The woman didn't answer, but her toes tapped and floated up. Xiao Cheng turned his heart sideways, rushed forward, and grabbed the back of her neck with both claws. The woman raised her leg and swept back, but Xiao Cheng's move had changed, slammed her ankle and fell to the ground. Xiao Cheng was originally strong, but this fall used internal strength, and the woman snorted and fainted. Then the guards arrived and bound her hands and feet with chains.
"How's Madame?" This is Xiao Cheng's biggest concern.
The guards shook their heads: "It's not a ......"
Xiao Cheng paused and said: "Send her to Jingzhao Yin's Mansion and lock her up and guard her strictly." β
With that, he ran forward in despair.
At this time, the lights of lanterns and torches flashed everywhere in Yongyi Houfu, and the sounds of crying, scolding, and discussion were mixed. Cui Wenli sat on the ground, holding his wife's corpse, holding the ghost talisman in his hand, crying and grabbing the ground, blaming himself for not coming over early to accompany his wife.
Xiao Cheng stepped forward and said in a low voice: "Master Hou, the murderer has been captured by the villain. β
Cui Wenli raised his head sharply, gritted his teeth and said, "Where is it?" I'm going to kill him with my own hands! β
Xiao Chengdao: "It's a woman." Recently, those rumors, Hou Ye ...... "He hesitated whether to go through all the details." In that case, it will cause great panic to Cui Wenli and even the entire Hou Mansion.
Cui Wenli threw the ghost talisman and was dumbfounded: "Hugh is talking nonsense, if it is really a ghost, can you still be captured?" β
He followed Xiao Cheng to the prison cell of Jingzhaoyin Mansion, and through the fence, he saw a woman sitting with her back upright, her long white skirt stained and rancid, as if she had just crawled out of the grave. At this time, she had spread her hair in a bun, holding a Changzhou palace comb, and was combing her hair slowly and carefully. As she moved, the chains rattled, like the soul rope in Impermanence's hands.
Cui Wenli slapped on the railing and shouted, "Raise your head!" The woman was unhurried, brushed her long hair, and turned around. Cui Wenli's gaze fell on her beautiful face, and he froze suddenly, his two eyes almost popped out, and he pointed at her and said, "You...... You ......" (To be continued......)
