Chapter 192: The sound of blowing in the middle of the night
Tang Chen said: "I came here and felt that this matter was a little wrong, you said that the emperor had taken away the evil spirit, but there have often been strange things recently, so I wonder if someone is pretending to be a ghost, is it that someone is deliberately avenging her after Xiaocui dies." ”
Xiao Tao still seemed to be a little suspicious of Tang Chen now, and there was something wrong with his eyes: "Are you thinking a little too much, this is not done by people at all." ”
"How do you know it wasn't done by humans?" Tang Chen's sharp eyes looked at her a little uncomfortable, and she said, "Because I didn't hear the sound of someone playing an instrument last night." ”
Tang Chen frowned and said, "Did you go to bed early?" ”
"I can't go to bed early, my mother has been unable to sleep well these days, so I go to bed very late every day, and I have never heard the sound of someone playing an instrument."
"Am I the only one who heard?"
At this time, Concubine Zhen held her head and said, "I also heard yesterday's voice, and it lasted for a long time before it disappeared. ”
Tang Chen said: "How can some people hear the voice, and some people can't hear it? ”
He walked out and looked at the little eunuchs who were sweeping the floor outside and said, "Did any of you sleep late yesterday?" ”
When those people saw Tang Chen, they shook their heads desperately as if they had seen a plague god, and Xiao Tao came out to look at them and said, "Did anyone hear the sound of someone playing a musical instrument outside yesterday?" ”
Those people shook their heads one after another, but Xiao Tao didn't dare to doubt that Concubine Zhen could only look at Tang Chen and said, "Since the Queen Mother asked you to help deal with this matter, then please deal with it as soon as possible!" ”
Tang Chen smiled bitterly and said, "Don't worry, I will deal with it as soon as possible, you can take me to the small stool to have a look." ”
Xiao Tao went in and talked to Concubine Zhen for a while, then walked back with Tang Chen, and said: "This little stool is now locked up because he stole some money from the palace a few days ago, so it is impossible for him to have the opportunity to do anything, I don't think you need to think about this at all." ”
Xiao Tao took him to a prison inside the palace, the environment here and the environment outside is simply a stark contrast, making people can't believe that this is the inside of the palace.
Tang Chen covered his nose and couldn't stop the musty smell, Xiao Tao said a few words to a few people inside and went in smoothly, the environment of this cell was very dim, and most of the people imprisoned inside were eunuchs and palace maids who began to cry out bitterly when they saw someone coming in.
Xiao Tao took him to the front of a cell, where the people were trembling in a corner, he seemed to be different from everyone, and he was not so excited to run to the front of the cage and shout wrongs when someone came in, but raised his head and glanced at the two of them, with a very uncomfortable feeling in his eyes.
"This is a little stool."
Tang Chen could clearly feel that something was wrong with the aura in this cell, and looked at the people inside and said, "Are you a little stool?" ”
The people there didn't speak, and Xiao Tao said, "He's been like this since he knew that Xiao Cui was dead." ”
Hearing the words Xiao Cui, he immediately got up and rushed towards Tang Chen, but they were blocked by the iron cage and fell to the ground, which startled Xiao Tao, screamed and took two steps back, and he shouted with blood on his nose: "Xiao Cui, Xiao Cui is back, Xiao Cui is back!" ”
Tang Chen looked at him and said, "What is the relationship between you and Xiaocui?" ”
He looked at Tang Chen and smiled inexplicably, and said: "Xiao Cui is dead, dead ......" Saying that, his gaze was dull for a moment, and he took a few steps back with his hands on the ground, and muttered in his mouth: "Xiao Cui is dead, already dead, it's all deceitful, it's all fake!" ”
Tang Chen looked at Xiao Tao and said, "Let them open the door." ”
Xiao Tao looked at Tang Chen with a look of disbelief and said, "What are you talking about?" Little stool he's already crazy, what if he hurts us? ”
"You don't have to worry about this, my intuition tells me that Xiao Cui's matter may have something to do with him."
"I can't help it, it's a big crime to steal in the palace, they won't open the prison door."
Tang Chen frowned and stood up, walked to the head of the cell and said, "Open the cell door!" ”
The cell boss looked at Tang Chen and smiled and said, "What kind of green onion are you, if you let me open it, I will open it, and the ones you gave me will be enough to come in and have a look, get out quickly." ”
At this time, Tang Chen took out a jade pendant from his pocket and held it in front of him, and the man suddenly fell to his knees and shouted: "Long live my emperor, long live, long live!" ”
Tang Chen used this thing for the first time, and he said, "Hurry up and open the door!" ”
The cell boss opened the door with the key, Xiao Tao looked at Tang Chen and said, "What the hell are you coming from?" ”
Tang Chen gave her a look, then walked in, closed the door, walked to the small stool and said, "What is the relationship between you and Xiaocui?" ”
The little stool's mood became a little more stable, and he looked at Tang Chen and shook his head: "I don't know Xiaocui, I don't know her, don't look for me." ”
"You guys? Has anyone else approached you? ”
"No, I don't know anything."
Tang Chen smiled bitterly and sat on the ground looking at him and said, "Do you know that Xiao Cui's spirit is now haunting outside, I know that you really like Xiao Cui, right?" ”
The little stool didn't speak, and Tang Chen continued: "I also know that you are pretending to be crazy, right?" ”
The moment the little stool raised his head, Tang Chen saw a trace of emotion flash in his eyes, and then instantly became crazy and began to hit the wall, Tang Chen grabbed him and said, "If you refuse to tell us the truth, then Xiao Cui's spirit will be directly scattered, do you know?" If Cui's spirit is scattered, you'll never see Cui. ”
The little stool's mood became a little more stable, and he looked at Tang Chen and said, "Xiao Cui is dead, already dead!" I don't want to talk, you go. ”
Tang Chen saw that his mood stabilized a little and said, "That's right, Xiaocui is dead, it's because you didn't protect her!" Now, if you don't do something for her, her spirit will disappear, and you're abandoning her for the second time, you know? ”
The little stool thought for a while, the expression on his face changed, he looked at Tang Chen and said, "I have heard a long time ago that Xiao Cui's spirit has been dispersed by the emperor, and I can't save her anymore." ”
"I often hear the sound of Xiao Cui blowing instruments these nights, in the middle of the night."
The little stool looked at Tang Chen in surprise and said, "That's a signal between us, we can only meet at night, is her spirit really still there?" ”
Before Tang Chen could speak, the little stool shook his head again and said, "No, it's impossible, her spirit has been dispersed by the emperor, it's impossible to be there, don't try to lie to me." ”
