Chapter 66: The Haunting of the Central Plains (1)

For the hundred officials, June is really a good month, the natural disasters stopped at the beginning of June, not to mention, June 16 is longevity, and the palace has feasted the ministers; June 29 is the 50th birthday of the Queen Mother, and I am afraid that the palace will have another feast. For Nan Ling Mo, her cousin Nan Ling Peng's marriage was on June 20, a few days before Wanshou, and the third lord Nanyue Mansion was so busy that he was dizzy; It just so happened that the test of Yunlu Academy was on June 25, and it was to add makeup and cope with the test of the academy, and Nanling Mo was so busy that she was about to take off during the whole June, and everyone lost weight several times.

On June 19, Nanling Mo wore a light purple embroidered acacia dress, and brought the prepared makeup gift for Nanling Peng directly to the Commander's Mansion. Nanling Peng was sitting in the room with a shy face, watching the sisters who had made friends come to add makeup one by one. Nanling Mo smiled and handed a brocade box to Nanling Peng, and Nanling Peng opened one, which was a coral and a good forbidden. The grandmother who was marrying next to her said sharply: "Yo, isn't this a coral ban?" Quietly, the coral beads are full and round, I am afraid that it will take hundreds of years of coral polishing! ”

Nan Ling Peng was stunned when she heard this, and hurriedly grabbed Nan Ling Mo's hand and said, "Sister can't be like this, this is too wasteful." Nan Lingmo shook her head gently, she Li Yunqing inherited Nan Lingmo's memory, when she went to the nunnery to keep filial piety, and when her family sent her, her cousin and third aunt secretly sewed two sets of clothes for her, and secretly sewed the broken silver into the cuffs of the clothes, avoiding Zhang's ears and eyes, so that her life in the nunnery was a little better in the past three years. After all, whether it is Nanling Xiao or the old princess, it is naturally good when she looks at her with her front foot, but as soon as she walks with her back foot, she changes, and the abbot takes the lead and does not wait to see her.

In addition, the nursing mother was unwell and soon died; And Su Ran, who was waiting, couldn't stand the hardships of the nunnery, and often secretly gave her silver and valuable things to her Lao Tzu Niang when she went out to buy. If it weren't for these small pieces of silver sewn into the sleeves of her clothes, I am afraid that she would have been able to return home in the end.

Nan Lingmo said in a low voice: "Sister Peng, I went to the nunnery the year thanks to you and the third aunt, otherwise...... This is your makeup gift, no matter how valuable it is, it can't compare to our sisterhood? Don't shirk it, take it now! Nanling Peng just accepted it. Nan Ling Mo said a few more words to Nan Ling Peng, and then left.

On June 20, the Zhennan Palace, the Commander's Mansion, and the Commander's Mansion were all sent to Nanling Peng to get married. Three days later, when he returned to the door, Nanling Peng and his new aunt Sun Changjun returned to the palace to meet everyone in the palace, even if they recognized their relatives. That night, Nanling Mo rushed back to the academy non-stop for the test two days later.

Soon after, after the Holy Birthday Festival, the college had a summer vacation. Nan Lingmo knew that he was the first grade, ranking first in the same class, and the results of several children in Zhennan Wangfu were acceptable, except for Nan Lingmo's cousin Nan Lingce was in the list of elimination.

The old princess who heard the news sighed leisurely, but she was helpless, she only said that the matter of the outer courtyard was decided by the prince, and handed over the matter to Nanling Xiao to deal with, and she couldn't help but sigh in her heart that this child was afraid that he had been raised crookedly by the Zhang family. Nan Lingmei also knew the news, and pretended to be pitiful when she asked for peace on this day: "Grandmother, my granddaughter knows that the third brother is not sensible, and now she has been given a name by Yunlu Academy, why don't you ask her granddaughter's maternal grandfather's family to help?" My grandfather was also a first-class Qingliu family in Jiangzhou, and although his reputation was not as good as that of the Jingli family, he was not bad in Jiangzhou. It's better to let my mother ...... No, Zhang Niangniang repaired a book, ask my grandfather to help, after the Mid-Autumn Festival, go to Jiangzhou Academy to study? ”

Thinking of the Zhang family, although Mrs. Jiang was angry, she also knew that this might be the best way for her third grandson. So he nodded and asked Nan Lingmei to arrange it.

Soon it was July 14, and the second day was the Midyear Festival, which was an annual day to worship the deceased ancestors and spend the souls of the dead. According to the custom, three days of fasting must be observed before the Midyear Festival, and on the day of the Midyear Festival, the soul of the dead will be exceeded in the Qin'an Temple, and the sacrifice of the Dharma boat will be burned during the festival.

The Moon Concubine Helian has inherited the rain and dew alone since the Wanshou Festival, and the limelight overshadowed the concubine and the concubine for a while. And she is a foreigner, she has never cared about the rumors in the palace, and her speech and demeanor often attract the attention of the six palaces, but the emperor called it her true temperament and admired it.

"Your Majesty, can't you really accompany your concubines tomorrow night?" Concubine Yue said coquettishly, "Although the concubine is a foreigner, she still knows a little about the culture of the Central Plains. The concubines heard what their father said, although the sacrifice of the deceased soldiers should be sincere, but there is no need to be confined to the subtleties, and they always feel in their hearts that it is the most important thing to take care of their relatives! ”

Yun Tianfeng didn't speak, he also thought about Concubine Yue's words in his heart, his eyes looked directly at Concubine Yue's bumpy body, he felt more and more that Concubine Yue was charming, and he couldn't do without her. He struggled for a long time and said, "Concubine Yue, I really can't go to your palace tonight. ”

"Your Majesty, since you can't come to the palace of the concubines, it is better for the concubines to accompany you in this Qianyuan Palace!" Concubine Yue rubbed against Yun Tianfeng's chest with her plumpness, making Yun Tianfeng's lower abdomen tense for a while. Yun Tianfeng smelled the faint fragrance, and replied with the only reason left: "Concubine Ai, you will stay in the Qianyuan Palace tonight to accompany me, but it really won't work tomorrow night." As he spoke, he picked up Concubine Yue and walked to the inner hall, leaving behind the dumbfounded Sanbao and a few other attendants who watched their noses and noses.

On the same day, when Nanling Mo took a nap after lunch, he dreamed of the day when the whole Zhenguo Mansion was beheaded, and the words shouted by Zhenguo Gong, and then dreamed of the painful and reluctant eyes of Princess Zhennan when she died of illness.

"Ahh Nan Lingmo woke up in a cold sweat, Mei Qian heard the voice and entered the house and said, "County Lord, are you having a nightmare again?" Nan Lingmo nodded, and Mei Qian continued, "Tomorrow is the Midyear Festival, and there are always little ghosts to make trouble." If you have done the Dharma tomorrow, it should be fine. ”

In the afternoon, Nan Lingmo took Mei Xi out of the door and brought back two very ordinary birds, but he met an injured bird on the road, and he couldn't bear to bring them back for a while.

At dinner time, because of the mid-year festival ceremony to be held tomorrow, the family gathered in Rongjin Hall for dinner. Mrs. Jiang asked with concern: "Mo'er, I heard that you woke up several times in a row today, can you ask Dr. Wang to take a look?" ”

"Grandmother, Mo'er is fine." Nan Lingmo said intentionally or unintentionally, "There must be a ghost who is haunted!" ”

Mrs. Jiang's face suddenly sank, and she was about to have a seizure, Nanling Xiang hurriedly got up and said timidly: "Grandmother, tomorrow is the Midyear Festival, Xiang'er is a little scared, I always feel that the pond is gloomy, Xiang'er is so afraid." ”

Nanling Xiao also said: "Grandmother, although the son does not say strange words, but tomorrow is the Midyear Festival, and it is the time to sacrifice to the ancestors and ancestors. Since you want to do something tomorrow, let's do it all together! ”

Only then did Mrs. Jiang soften her face and said, "Since this is the case, then I will solemnly replace it." She also knew that although the Zhennan Wangfu Mansion had been strict in governing the family for a hundred years, there were many people who made mistakes, and they were driven out at least and killed at night. Since the granddaughter he values most is always full of nightmares, it is better to do a good job, which can be regarded as a wake-up call for those with ill intentions in the house.

Nan Ling Mo is a careful person, she found that when she talked about the nightmare, Nan Ling Mei and Zhao's faces changed slightly, and she guessed in her heart that they had done a lot of evil things.

Tang Liju

At night, Nan Lingmei fell asleep after taking a bath. She slept hazy, as if she felt water dripping onto her face. She rolled over and continued to fall asleep. Soon water dripped onto her face, and it seemed to smell fishy. She opened her eyes, and by the dim candlelight outside the tent, she saw a lifeless face, which seemed to be one of her former third-class sprinkler maidservants, named Red Peony. It seems that she was stabbed to death with a knife because of a trivial matter. She touched the liquid on her face, and it turned out to be blood! And the lifeless face let out a low roar: "Miss, the slave maid hurts so much, you don't know how much it hurts, why don't you tell it yourself!" As he spoke, he raised the dagger in his hand and wanted to stab Nan Lingmei.

"Ahhhh ”

"Come on, there are ghosts, come here, dye winter, paint spring...... Help me! Nan Lingmei kept looking back to see if the ghost shadow was coming, and she was so frightened that she shouted and screamed, not to mention that she lost the demeanor of the county lord, and even the demeanor of an ordinary boudoir woman was lost.

Huichun and Dyedong, who were on duty outside the door, heard Nan Lingmei's cry in the house, and hurriedly ran into the house to light the lamp to take a look, and found that Nan Lingmei was crawling on the ground like a madwoman.

Huichun's eyes were quick, and he hurriedly picked up Nan Lingmei, who was falling and crawling on the ground, and hurriedly coaxed: "County lord, county lord, there are no ghosts, where are there ghosts?" ”

"Huichun, it's a red peony, a red peony," Nan Lingmei cried out in horror, "I saw her, I saw her, her tongue was bleeding, dripping blood, and she was going to stab me with a knife......"

As soon as Nanling Mei shouted like this, the entire Tangli House woke up, and everyone talked about it. Seeing this, Dye Dong said fiercely: "Whatever you see, don't hurry up and go to sleep at any time!" There's a lot going on tomorrow, do you all want to make mistakes and get on the board?! Then they hurried back to the house to rest.

Huichun comforted Nan Lingmei in a low voice while wiping the blood on her face in the house: "Don't be afraid, the county lord, it's all fake, no one wants to harm you, you see, there are only slaves and maids and you in this house." ”

"No, no, no, Huichun, you go and light all the candles," Nanling Mei trembled, and grabbed Huichun tightly, "Go, Dye Dong, you two don't go down tonight, stay in the house with me!" ”

"Yes, slave and maid obey."

Soon, the two of them followed Nan Lingmei's wishes to lay on the floor in Nan Lingmei's inner room to accompany Nan Lingmei, and Nan Lingmei still couldn't help but be afraid in her heart, after all, the blood that had just been wiped away was not fake.

In this way, Nan Lingmei didn't sleep well all night, and when she got up the next day, she didn't know how much powder she used to cover the black green in front of her.
