Her sister's wedding is scheduled to be held on October 3, and she, as a bridesmaid, has to arrive a day in advance to carry out some rehearsals and other links, the time is relatively tight and busy, and the two also plan to rush over on the afternoon of October 1 to communicate and prepare, but now they can only let Li Ruoxi pass by herself.

On the morning of the eleventh, he bought breakfast and waited for Li Ruoxi to come out to eat after putting on makeup. Seeing her happy appearance, he couldn't bear to refuse her request, but fate was no longer in his hands at the moment, and he could only endure the pain of parting his love.

"That, Xiaoxi, I have something to tell you." He asked, somewhat awkwardly, tentatively.

"Well, you name it." Li Ruoxi smiled sweetly, like an intoxicating spring breeze.

"I'm sorry, I can't go to the wedding with you, my mentor, Professor Liu, suddenly fell ill and has been hospitalized in Beijing, I'm not very relieved, I want to see him."

This reason is a reasonable reason that he came up with after thinking about it for half the night.

It is understandable that the sick are the greatest, and the elders are sick, and they visit as students. Moreover, he often mentions Professor Liu, and Li Ruoxi is also respectful.

It's just that he felt guilty about Professor Liu, and silently said in his heart, "Teacher, don't blame, God bless you with health and longevity." ”

Although Li Ruoxi was reluctant, she was a reasonable woman after all, pretending to pout and complain, he coaxed her to be happy, and it was fine.

He helped her sort out some belongings in the afternoon, then sent her to the station, and after getting on the long-distance bus to Wei County, he was ready to look for Zhenfei Mirror.

After he got the instructions of the Blood Cube yesterday, he consulted the information about Concubine Zhen overnight, and both the official history and the wild history have reference value, so that he can interpret the puzzle of history more comprehensively.

In recent years, Qing court dramas have dominated palace fighting dramas, and a "The Legend of Zhen Huan" has deduced the treacherous and desolate nature of the deep palace, and Concubine Zhen is the embodiment of tragedy.

She was originally a famous family, but she was the daughter of the household servant, and entered the palace with her sister Concubine Jin and became the favorite concubine of Emperor Guangxu.

Among the three thousand beauties in the harem, she was able to win the emperor's favor alone, also because of her gentle and virtuous lady and beautiful temperament.

But this pet is both lucky and unfortunate.

In the harem, in order to compete for favor and seize the throne, make all the tricks, and the murder is simply too much to write, far away there are Empress Lu to see Mrs. Qi as a human being, Wu Zetian killed a woman to frame the queen, and there are also secret stories such as Qianlong of the Qing Dynasty stealing the dragon and turning the phoenix, and the Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang marrying Dolgon.

Concubine Zhen has a man who loves her deeply, but she also has a mother-in-law who hates her - the Empress Dowager Cixi.

For thousands of years, there have been contradictions and mustards between mothers-in-law and daughters-in-law, but some mothers-in-law and daughters-in-law can know how to tolerate it, so that this estrangement has diluted over time.

But feminist mothers-in-law like Empress Lu, Wu Zetian, and Cixi will not tolerate their daughters-in-law.

Cixi has always hated Concubine Zhen for bewitching Guangxu and making her son less obedient to him, and has always wanted to find an opportunity to punish her.

In the twentieth year of Guangxu, she finally committed the crime of Cixi, and was accused of disobedience by the Empress Dowager Cixi, and was stripped (taken off her clothes) in public and reduced to a precious person.

After the failure of the Wuxu Reform, the Empress Dowager Cixi confined Concubine Zhen in a small courtyard behind Jingqi Pavilion, and did not allow her to meet Guangxu.

In the twenty-sixth year of Guangxu (1900), the Eight-Nation Alliance invaded Beijing, and Cixi fled west with her ministers. Because the Empress Dowager Cixi made a strong excuse to take away Concubine Zhen's inconvenience, and was afraid that her youth would cause trouble and insult the royal face, she threw her into a well and died at the age of 24.

Since ancient times, there has been a saying that "red face and bad water" have been said, and many things like to let women carry the black pot.

Wu Yue competed for hegemony, and the beautiful Xi Shi became a victim. The Anshi Rebellion finally let Yang Guifei hang herself in Maweipo.

There is a Qing generation, and this behavior is even more habitual. Shunzhi became a monk, and Concubine Dong became a scapegoat; The Eight-Nation Alliance invaded, and Concubine Zhen became a ghost.

Of course, Concubine Zhen also did some things that she did not consider, she sold her official position to collect money, colluded with relatives and traitors, interfered in court politics, and the most important thing is that she supported the Guangxu Restoration and cursed Cixi in person, which are all taboos for Cixi.

As the saying goes, if you don't die, you won't die. Although she is pitiful and pathetic, she also has unknown hate.

To investigate the relics of Concubine Zhen, you must start from Concubine Zhen's well. The well is still in the Forbidden City and has become a landscape.

It's not far from Beijing, but first, it coincides with the traffic congestion during the 11th Golden Week, and second, the ghosts and evil things only appear at night.

Therefore, he only needs to rush to the Forbidden City when it is dark, and there are no tourists at night, so it is more convenient to do things.

When it was dark, he drove to the vicinity of the Forbidden City, parked his car, and prepared to apply the items.

Compared with the golden splendor in the daytime, the Forbidden City, shrouded in darkness, is a little more desolate and mysterious.

How to enter the Forbidden City without being discovered is a problem that needs to be solved urgently, he does not have the elusive light skills of a martial arts hero, and he does not have the invisible cultivation of Taoist masters. can only rely on some small means to hide from the world.

Zhao Yuankang pasted three invisibility talismans on the top of his head, chest and navel, this is just a simple trick to cover his eyes, although in the eyes of a master, he can easily see through it, but for ordinary guards in the Forbidden City, this is enough for him to hide his figure.

He walked to the main gate and saw that although there were guards, there was a lot of space left behind the two to pass through, and it was obvious that they didn't think that anyone could go in under their noses.

He tiptoed and sneaked into the Forbidden City smoothly. Although some corners of the interior were sprinkled with incense ash and stone powder to drive away ghosts, there was no threat at all to him, a living person who knew some Taoism.

According to the instructions on the map, he turned around and found the well of Concubine Zhen's martyrdom in a short time.

After more than 100 years of vicissitudes, this well has been mottled and gray decay. There was a wellhead stone pressed on the well, and holes were dug out on both sides of the stone, and the iron rod was passed through to seal the well.

This can't help but remind him of "Journey to the West", in which the king of black chickens was pushed into the octagonal glass well by the yellow lion monster, and the dove occupied the magpie's nest, which led to a fight.

There is also a passage in "Ugly Niangniang", the ugly Niangniang entered the well to surrender the unicorn, and was sealed by King Qi Xuan with a boulder to prevent the monster from escaping.

This boulder is the thing that suppresses the souls of injustice. In this deep palace, there are many people who have died unjustly, and their grievances are quite heavy, so there are many supernatural incidents of ghosts and scary ghosts in the Forbidden City.

If you want to ask about ghosts and gods, you have to sacrifice the souls of heroes.

He opened the Heavenly Eye, probed the breath everywhere, and all the souls and evil spirits were under his Heavenly Eye, and there was nothing to hide immediately.

This sight surprised him a lot, in just one mile, there were more than twenty ghosts wandering.

These ghosts are male and female, strong and weak, still wearing the costumes of the Qing Dynasty, all of them are as white as paper, obviously low-minded, because Zhao Yuankang is carrying evil spirits, he is a hundred meters away from him, and he does not dare to approach.

Only a slightly chubby palace maid, with tears in her eyes, peeked at Concubine Zhen's well from time to time, it seems that she had a lot of connections with Concubine Zhen during her lifetime.

He casually sacrificed a soul-attracting talisman to isolate the soul of the palace maid from the surrounding spirits, and brought it to the well of Concubine Zhen.

"Real people spare their lives, real people spare their lives!" She begged for mercy again and again, and in the Qing Dynasty, it was a common name for people with Taoism to be called real people.

"Don't be afraid, I'm here just to ask you something about Concubine Zhen. Are you familiar with her? ”

"Well, during the period when she entered the cold palace for reflection, I was a master servant with her for a while, and after she was demoted to a nobleman, she was assigned to other concubines, and after she was thrown into a well and drowned, I was poisoned because I offended a nobleman."

"Although Concubine Zhen often loses her temper and teaches me a lesson, it is much gentler than other methods of poisoning and spicy in the palace."

With tears in her eyes, she spoke eloquently, her expression was gloomy, and she had a sad color, like crying and complaining, as desolate as the autumn wind and falling leaves.

"Then let me ask you, is there anything that Concubine Zhen has with her in this well?" He didn't have the heart to understand those court grievances, and went straight to the point.

"It's not a secret, Concubine Zhen was in a hurry when she was thrown into the well by Cui Yugui at that time, and she didn't have time to carry any important items."

"And where was she placed when she died?" Zhao Yuankang continued to ask.

At that time, she was just hastily sealed in this well, and the queen mother and the emperor fled to Xi'an, and only after they returned to Beijing did they approve Niangniang's family, salvage his body, and place it in the western suburbs of the grange. Later, her sister Concubine Jin was named the imperial concubine, so that her bones were buried in the Chongling Concubine Garden in the Qingxi Tomb, as for the specific situation, I don't know. ”

The palace maid trembled and told him what she knew, and while talking, she felt nostalgic for her life experience, and finally choked up.

"Okay, I'm here just to find a relic of Concubine Zhen, and I don't want to disturb her soul, in that case, you can go with peace of mind."

He recited the incantation, and a faint light enveloped the palace maid, returned to a dark corner, and let her go.

Since there is no whereabouts of the Concubine Mirror here, it should be stored in the other two places.
