Chapter 145: Quell the Haunting
Concubine Tong Jia was sick again, lying in the master bedroom of Zhongcui Palace, unable to move.
Concubine Tong Jia is sick, and according to what she is responsible for, she has to share it with the four concubines of the harem. However, Concubine Tong Jia was afraid that Concubine Hui, Concubine Yi, Concubine De, and Concubine Rong would perform well, and then Kangxi would let her take charge of the affairs of the harem, preferring to let Manhua, who was only half a master, help her take care of all the things, and let the fourth elder brother secretly cooperate.
Therefore, the fourth elder brother came to Manhua and said that he couldn't handle something, so he directly asked the slave maid to pass a message to him.
"Yes, Fourth Master!" Manhua lowered his head and saluted.
Concubine Hui, Concubine Yi, Concubine De, and Concubine Rong knew that Concubine Tong Jia was sick, but they were holding on to their power and were very uncomfortable. Therefore, ignoring the Manhua stewardship, hoping that Manhua can't manage it, they will have a chance.
Now, there are rumors in the palace that Cining Palace is haunted, such an aggressive thing, Manhua did not dare to alarm Concubine Tong Jia, and called the relevant personnel to come over and ask.
After the relevant personnel came, they saluted Manhua.
The two eunuchs who were inspecting the Cining Palace at that time said to Manhua: "Manhua Gege, you must be a slave, the slave was frightened by a ghost, and he had chills all night......"
"Huh? Have you met a ghost? But I just don't believe there are ghosts in this world," Manhua said angrily.
Seeing that Manhua didn't believe it, the two eunuchs sighed and said haggardly: "Manhua Gege...... You really don't believe in the minion, but are you kidding when you look at the minion like this? Also, if it's a hallucination, it's impossible for two people to hallucinate at the same time......
Manhua said: "I like those weird ghosts so much. Hey, it's my dream to see ghosts. This thing is really appetizing to me, hehehe...... I can't wait to see it."
Everyone present, hearing Manhua say this, you look at me and I look at you, I don't quite understand what she means.
Manhua said: "There are no ghosts in this world, it's just wind and grass!" Looking at the two fathers-in-law who were on patrol, they were full of alcohol, and they must have eaten wine to inspect. Drinking on duty, it is a crime in itself, and he also babbles nonsense about the haunting of Cining Palace, pull it down, and each person will hit forty boards! ”
The two eunuchs who were drunk and said that they were going to see the hell were each beaten with forty boards, and they were beaten to the point that they were only half a life.
However, after Manhua originally got two eunuchs who were drunk and said that they were ghosts, the people in the palace still believed that Cining Palace was haunted and talked about it. At night in Cining Palace, the palace maid would never dare to go, and the eunuch on duty was still trembling and frightened to go on patrol.
Manhua was speechless, looking at this splendid palace, thinking about how to deal with this matter, if it is handled well, this matter can be calmed down.
Seeing that Manhua had a headache about this, Brother Jiu came over to comfort her, saying that he would definitely help if he had a useful place.
"Really?"
"Yes, cousin!"
"Then tonight, the two of us will go to Cining Palace to bake and roast, so as to break the rumors that Cining Palace is haunted at night!" Manhua couldn't ask for it, and asked for this to the ninth elder brother who took the initiative to help him.
Brother Jiu was stunned, he couldn't imagine that Manhua actually thought of this idea. However, the words had been released, so I had to agree to go to Cining Palace with Manhua for a barbecue in the evening.
"Brother Jiu and Manhua Gege are going to Cining Palace for a barbecue at night?" This incident spread throughout the Forbidden City at once.
The people of the entire Forbidden City laughed about this incident, and they talked about it in a big way, and everywhere they went, they heard people talking about it.
