Chapter 291: An Unexpected Gain
"So what?" Yue Xiaoyun pursed the corners of his lips lightly, and said with a hint of impatience on his face.
Chu Xiaoxiang added suddenly: "If you can trust me, just wait for me here, and I'll come when I go." ”
"Huh? Going? Yue Xiaoyun said, Chu Xiaoxiang nodded, "In order not to attract attention, it's better to dress up and enter the palace again!" ”
Yue Xiaoyun didn't continue to say anything, Chu Xiaoxiang had already turned around and entered the palace, she didn't go to the main gate when she entered the palace, but when she passed by the city gate just now, she found that there was a portrait of her posted on the bulletin board next to the entrance of the capital.
It is estimated that after she left, the Queen Mother did not dislike it, not only did she catch her, but also offered a reward of three hundred taels of gold!
Chu Xiaoxiang touched her head, turned around, and ran towards the palace wall next to the palace.
Although the faint stench from inside made Chu Xiaoxiang couldn't help but twist her eyebrows and pinch her nose, in order to complete the plan, she still had to sacrifice it for the time being, and as soon as she turned around, she rushed towards the locust poplar tree next to her.
Fortunately, the hard work paid off, and in less than half a day's effort, Chu Xiaoxiang got three pieces of clothes in a row, and without exception, they were all the clothes of the eunuchs in the palace.
When Chu Xiaoxiang returned to the palace gate with a smug face, in the relatively hidden place where she and Yue Xiaoyun were separated just now, Chu Xiaoxiang's eyes sank, and the person she was looking for was actually gone.
Chu Xiaoxiang was stunned, but he didn't expect the other party to take advantage of his absence, he actually turned around and left, and now she was the only one left, Chu Xiaoxiang raised her eyebrows, since there was only one person left, then don't blame her for not helping them.
She was about to turn around and leave, when someone suddenly patted her shoulder behind her, Chu Xiaoxiang suddenly came back to her senses and found that it was Yue Xiaoyun's chubby face.
"What's the matter, I'm leaving?" Although Yue Xiaoyun was a little dissatisfied, the slight smile between his eyebrows was a little funny.
Chu Xiaoxiang shook her head and pointed to the place where she was waiting just now: "The clothes are here, you guys hurry up and change them!" ”
Yue Xiaoyun's shrewd eyes flashed, and he suddenly handed over a sharp expression towards the palace clothes, and then said to Ji Range, the princess of Ji Kingdom: "Okay, don't you worry, let's go here?" ”
When he got dressed, Yue Xiaoyun frowned, but between his eyebrows, he made a somewhat mischievous expression to Chu Xiaoxiang and said, "Why are they all eunuchs' clothes?" ”
"Could it be that what you want is a palace maid!" Although Chu Xiaoxiang asked, Yue Xiaoyun pursed his thin lips lightly, "Forget it, it's very hard to wait for others, since it's a eunuch's, it's a eunuch's!" Now that you've changed your clothes, let's go......"
"Let's go? Where are you going" Ji Range said, Yue Xiaoyun was busy with the corners of his mouth, "Of course you have entered the palace, do you still need to ask?" ”
Ji Range shook his head, looked up at the sky and said, "It's still early in my opinion, it's better for us to go eat something first, find a place to rest for a while, and wait for the sky to be late before we start!" ”
Yue Xiaoyun pursed her lips and said with some urge: "Okay, but don't wait too long." Yinxiang Pavilion has been destroyed, our brothers have to go hungry, and everyone is worried about having no jobs! ”
"Don't worry, you have to do it tonight," Chu Xiaoxiang thought in her heart, the Queen Mother has always had a lot of respect for ghosts and gods, and her imperial brother Ji Ranyu has just died, if she makes a fuss about her imperial brother at this time, there may be unexpected effects.
Sure enough, late that night, when the moon was high in the sky, Chu Xiaoxiang took Yue Xiaoyun and the two attendants behind him into the palace.
At that time, the Queen Mother had just fallen asleep when she suddenly heard a strange sound coming from outside the courtyard wall window behind her bedroom.
And this sound is not like the strange sound of the last time, when she saw the princess Ji Ran Song, but today she heard a faint cat meow.
This kind of voice made the Queen Mother listen to it, and she immediately felt a little creepy, could it be that Yonghe Palace is haunted again?
And it was so close to the last haunting, the Queen Mother couldn't help but feel nervous, got up from the bed, and planned to go out to have a look.
Unexpectedly, when she just walked to the window, she only saw a row of eunuch-looking people standing outside the window of Yonghe Palace, but the one headed by Ji Ranyu looked exactly the same!
The Queen Mother immediately pursed her lips with a coldness in her heart, and shouted to the people outside the window: "Pretending to be a god and a ghost, do you really think that there will be such a thing as a ghost or god in this world?" Even if there really is, the mourning family is not afraid! ”
The Queen Mother said, and was about to turn around and continue to go back to rest with a nonchalant face, but at this time, a cold wind suddenly blew behind her, and the Queen Mother suddenly heard a voice behind her: "Queen Mother, do you really not know the emperor?" The emperor is alone, so cold and lonely! ”
The commotion on both sides, coupled with the sudden voice in front of him, no, no, no, how can there be such a thing as a ghost in this world! Absolutely not!
Although the Queen Mother whispered in her heart, she still held back her courage to say to the person who pretended to be a ghost: "Bold, who are you?" The mourning family has long said that although the emperor died because he took the medicine of the mourning family, but you know that the medicine, you still have to take it, the mourning family...... What do you want to do with the mourners? ”
Chu Xiaoxiang was slightly stunned, the queen mother was in a hurry, and actually told the truth, but even if she told the truth, she was still her own queen mother after all, her mother, how could a daughter kill her mother in a fit of anger?
Thinking of this, Chu Xiaoxiang hurriedly imitated the voice of Emperor Ji Ranyu, coughed softly and said: "Queen Mother, although the emperor is dead, there is still a trace of concern in this world, how can the emperor go with peace of mind?" ”
"This, this...... You mean the little prince!? The Queen Mother finally realized something, and said to Ji Ranyu: "Okay, the mourning family promised you, and from now on, the mourning family will finish your heart for you, but you should also promise the mourning family and not return to the yang world in the future!" ”
As soon as the Queen Mother spoke, Ji Ranyu outside the opposite window suddenly disappeared.
At this time, she also remembered what she had just said, maybe these haunted things were related to her bullying of the little emperor Ji Zisheng.
The Queen Mother was frightened by the trace just now, and immediately scared away and lost her sleepiness, and walked to the incense case of Yonghe Palace, she set up a candle and lit the incense.
"Bodhisattva bless, let the emperor under the yellow spring of the mourning family rest in peace! And ,......" The Queen Mother suddenly remembered the little emperor Ji Zisheng, and sat on the steps in front of the incense case with a helpless face.
Just now, when Ji Range was talking to the Queen Mother inattentively, a force behind her waist pulled her violently, causing her to accidentally fall.
After seeing the Queen Mother leave, Ji Range got up from the ground, gestured to Yue Xiaoyun behind her, and turned around and walked to the corner next to her, until she finally confirmed that no one around her was aware of them.
Only then did Ji Range stop and said to Yue Xiaoyun: "Just now you pulled me so desperately that I fell, it's just ...... How did I have a bunch of friends like you? ”
Yue Xiaoyun hurriedly straightened the eunuch hat on his head, and said to Ji Range: "Yes, I'm sorry, princess!" We didn't expect that the task you just gave us was to let us pretend to be ghosts to scare the Queen Mother! It's a bit harder, you should have told us sooner! ”
"Tell me sooner? Are you sure that if I had told you about the situation just now, you would still dare to participate? ”
"I ......" Yue Xiaoyun was silent for a while and shook his head, "This is a head-off thing!" ”
"yes, isn't it?" Chu Xiaoxiang took what Yue Xiaoyun said and said, "But then again, if it weren't for the fact that the Queen Mother had been haunted by the death of my imperial brother and had a ghost in her heart, we wouldn't have let her succeed so quickly." ”
"Now this should be the last time," Princess Ji Range pursed her thin lips again, and said with her chin propped up a little, "But no matter what, I think the Queen Mother should never be bad to my little emperor's nephew Ji Zisheng in the future, so I ...... It's decided! ”
"Ah, you, you...... Decided? Yue Xiaoyun listened to Chu Xiaoxiang's words, and for a while he stammered a little, "Princess, are you going to leave with us?" ”
"But I can't do it yet, and I have to go to Changle Palace first, otherwise I'm worried, will the Queen Mother soon suspect that I did this kind of thing!"
Chu Xiaoxiang was talking, and suddenly her heart suddenly became alert, if the Queen Mother really reacted and suspected her, then it would be safer for her to go back to Changle Palace as soon as possible.
Thinking of this, Chu Xiaoxiang took a long step and walked straight back in the direction of Changle Palace.
Yue Xiaoyun and the others followed behind them reluctantly.
Seeing that everyone was about to walk to the main gate of Changle Palace, a group of people with torches in their hands were in front of the gate of Changle Palace, surrounding the group.
"What about you princesses? She killed my father, although the Queen Mother has expressed high hopes for my father, but I know that your princess did this. And on that day, someone in the palace also saw that your princess went to prison and used fossil powder, which made my father festered and died......"
Chu Xiaoxiang was slightly stunned, although she didn't see the people sent by the Queen Mother, but who would have expected that the prime minister's daughter Ying Ning would actually arrive first, if she didn't appear at this time, then Ying Ning would be more likely to go to the Queen Mother to complain, and the Queen Mother would have more reason to suspect that these things of pretending to be a ghost tonight were all made by her Chu Xiaoxiang alone.
However, these people in Changle Palace, under Chu Xiaoxiang's training, have long become ghosts and spirits, and they know how to talk to people when they see people, and talk nonsense when they see ghosts.
