Chapter 84: Vigil
"This ......" Chen Yaobing was embarrassed, "Queen Mother, this is not appropriate, right...... Or stay here to protect you. ”
The queen smiled: "You are so old, it is even more inappropriate to stay in the harem." This palace knows that you are reluctant to give up Miss Yan, don't worry, I will return Miss Yan to you safe and sound. ”
"......" Chen Yaobing looked embarrassed.
Yanli said: "Niangniang misunderstood, because His Royal Highness the Crown Prince promised me to help me find my master, so I can't stay for too long, but I can stay and protect Niangniang until this matter is resolved." ”
The queen said: "This is very good, Bing'er, you see that Miss Yan has agreed, do you still have any opinions?" ”
Chen Yaobing said: "No, no, that's fine, I'll go to the National Teacher's Mansion and ask the National Teacher to help." ”
The queen stretched out her hand and said, "You don't have to go, the national teacher is not in Liangjin." ”
Chen Yaobing was stunned: "The day I went back to Liangjin, I did see Xiang Guoshi going out of the city in a carriage, haven't you come back yet?" ”
Queen: "Not so fast, the national teacher has something important to do, and he will return to Liangjin later." ”
"What's the matter?" Chen Yaobing asked.
The queen paused: "Naturally, it is an important matter that your father has explained, and we don't know what it is." ”
Chen Yaobing thought to himself that the queen mother suddenly took his father out to gag him, it seems that he is hiding something, plus he is not allowed to go out these days, it seems that there must be something big in Liangjin City, wait for me to investigate secretly. Come to think of it, Chen Yao Bing won't waste time here.
"Queen Mother, Miss Yan is my savior and my guest, please treat her as a guest."
"Don't worry, your friend is naturally also a distinguished guest of this palace." The queen agreed.
It's night.
Yan Yanli sat outside the Empress Penglai Palace's bedroom, looking at the stars in the sky.
Alas, I don't know what my brother, who is in the same city at this time, is doing now?
"Girl, why are you still wearing an umbrella in the middle of the night?" The queen had already fallen asleep, and the last palace maid who served packed up the change of clothes in the dormitory and was about to leave, when she saw Yan Yanli sitting on the steps outside the house, holding an umbrella, she couldn't help but ask curiously.
Yanli turned her head and said, "Ah, I'm afraid of the sun." ”
"Isn't the moon still shining? Hee-hee. The two palace maids only talked nonsense as smoke and glass, and left with a smile.
Yanli watched them leave the dark corridor, and sighed, "Alas, my distress will not be understood by other girls. ”
She turned her head again to look at the beautiful and gorgeous courtyard of the Penglai Palace, where patrolling guards walked by from time to time.
This is the inner courtyard of the palace, except for the extreme example of Concubine Xiao, there shouldn't be any lonely ghosts......
Curious, Yanli slowly lowered her umbrella......
It turns out that this curiosity always proves wrong, and she tried many times when she was a child, secretly taking the umbrella away, and the result was always not very good, and she tried and tested.
Tonight...... She was simply shocked...... In the courtyard of this Penglai Palace, there are more ghosts floating than living people......
The Chen clan has ruled in the Great Yuan Kingdom for more than 800 years, and there have been many rebellions here, so it is not strange for her to see a soldier with a broken head and a palace maid with a missing arm, but it is strange that a ghost wearing a eunuch's clothes carries a bucket of water back and forth from the moon gate to the well, over and over again, over and over again.
"What are you doing?" Yanli couldn't help but ask.
"You're talking to me?" The eunuch carrying the bucket was stunned.
"Yes, I can see you." Yanli put away her umbrella and stood up, "Why did you carry the barrel back and forth to the well?" ”
"I'm ......," the little eunuch seemed to suddenly remember something far away, and his face sighed, "I died unjustly." ”
Yanli thought to herself: It must have been unjustly killed, otherwise how could she keep wandering here.
"Why did you get wronged?"
