Chapter 204: The Death of the First Crown Princess

"Zhang Ting said that she met the love of her life and wanted to marry each other, but this family affair was disliked by her uncle and aunt."

"The man is just a businessman who went to Donghua Mansion to do business, the Xie family has been an official for generations, how could the third uncle let his daughter marry a person of unknown origin."

Zhang Ting was heartbroken, didn't eat or drink, and wrote to me to tell me about the distress in her heart. I pitied her for her youth, it was the age when she was trapped by love, so I invited her to come to the capital, first, to break this obsession, and second, to change places to relax. ”

"After Zhang Ting came to Beijing, her mood gradually brightened, I introduced the sisters in Beijing to her, and the two aunts also did their best to help her. She has made a lot of friends and often asks people out to go out, and I have never restrained her. ”

"She didn't mention the man again, and I thought she was out of touch with him. But who would have thought that one day, she went to Huguo Temple to offer incense, and left a letter, saying that she was going to elope with that person, and the person disappeared without a trace......"

Shen Lingxi's eyes were slightly cold when he heard this.

If Xie Zhangting lived in an ordinary family, went out to incense, and the person disappeared, it would not be a very strange thing.

But the place where she lives is the East Palace.

She is the cousin of the crown princess, how can she not be accompanied by the guards of the East Palace when she is out of the house?

Under the noses of the inner guards, it is almost impossible for people to disappear without a trace.

Xie Zhanghua saw the question in Shen Lingxi's eyes and nodded, "The matter is exactly here, after Zhang Hua used vegetarian food in Huguo Temple, he went to the wing room to rest, and the internal guard of the East Palace was guarding outside, and the maidservant and the housekeeper's mother were all in the room. But a living person just disappeared out of thin air. ”

"After the accident, the prince checked all the inside and outside of the Huguo Temple, and did not find anything unusual. Donggong and the Xie family sent many people to look for the man, but they found that the man's identity and place of origin were fake, and there was no such person at all.

"The two of them disappeared as if out of thin air, there was no trace to be found, and the matter had to be resolved."

"Anyway, my cousin was lost when she was living in the East Palace, and I feel deeply guilty about the third uncle and the third aunt, and my husband knows my heart knot, and he tries his best to compensate for the third uncle's family. Rokuro was only six years old that year. ”

"I never gave up and sent someone to find Zhang Hua. After another three years, the people sent out finally found Zhang Hua's whereabouts in Tongwu Pass. I went to Tongwuguan to take her back to Beijing, but I didn't expect that when I saw her again, she was so thin that she was skinny, her whole body was blue, and she was tortured to the point that she had only one breath left. ”

"No one knows what she has been through in the past three years, or who the man is and what he has done to her. When Zhang Ting saw me, she seemed to have a lot to say to me, but she couldn't speak, so she could only hold my hand tightly......"

Speaking of this, Xie Zhanghua's tears fell again, "Within two days, she died, and the third uncle and third aunt took her body back to Donghua Mansion for burial, and I also returned to the capital." ”

"Xu is a relationship between thinking day and night, after returning to Beijing, I dream every night, I will dream of Zhang Ting, dream of her crying and asking me to save her, saying that she shouldn't sneak out, complaining that I didn't protect her......"

"I was tormented by nightmares every day, I couldn't sleep at night, I had a serious illness, and I was in a trance all day long. In order not to affect Rokuro's schoolwork, I moved out of the East Palace and went to live in Yongtai Xinggu for a while. ”

"After leaving the East Palace, I didn't have any more nightmares, I recuperated in the palace for two months, safe and sound, I thought I was fine, it happened that my husband went to patrol the border on behalf of the first emperor, and in order to take care of Liulang, I moved back to the East Palace."

"Who would have thought, when I returned to the East Palace, I began to be tormented by nightmares again every night. I often dream that Zhang Ting is waving to me and asking me to go with her. ”

"And this time, the strange thing is that every night, I wander around the palace unconsciously. I often slept in the dormitory, only to wake up to find myself somewhere else, and the palace people knew nothing about me. ”

"I was so frightened that I sent Rokuro into the palace, asked your imperial grandmother to take care of it, had the doors and windows locked every night, and sent internal guards to guard the outside of the dormitory. But to no avail, I would run out every night, and no one would know how I got out......"

Even though Xie Zhanghua is now a ghost, mentioning this past, the soul body is still trembling with horror.

"Gradually, rumors began to spread in the palace that I was possessed by evil spirits and fell into evil. Even I think so. I secretly invited a lot of monks to come to the East Palace to do things, but it didn't help at all. I still have nightmares every night, wandering strangely in the East Palace. I was so exhausted by the torture that in order not to worry Rokuro, I had to cheer up during the day and force a smile to prevent him from seeing the flaws. ”

"I wrote to my husband about my strange situation and asked him to come back as soon as possible. It is said that the prince has dragon energy, and if he is by his side, maybe my illness will be cured. I stayed up for three whole months, and finally waited for the news of my husband's return to Beijing. ”

"On the day my husband came back, I took Rokuro back to the East Palace, and after lunch, the maidservant said that I didn't look very good, and persuaded me to take a nap. I hadn't seen my husband for a long time, and I thought that I wanted to make a good impression on him, and besides, I had never been sick during the day, so I went to lie down on the couch for a while. ”

"Unexpectedly, when I fell asleep, I heard Zhang Ting calling me again, this time I opened my eyes and saw her standing in front of the bed looking at me and laughing, she said that the prince is back, and she can no longer play with me, let me go with her to see something, and she will leave after reading it, and she will never come back to harass me."

I didn't want to go, but she reached out and helped me. As soon as she touched me, I couldn't resist it, so I had to go with her. ”

She helped me to the rockery, and standing on the top of the rockery, I saw Rokuro running out of the dormitory to find me.

"Zhang Ting stretched out her hand and pointed at Liulang, saying that she turned into a powerful ghost after she died, it was very painful, she wanted to be reincarnated, and someone had to sacrifice her to her, if I didn't want to be sacrificed, then she would go to Liulang and use Liulang to sacrifice her."

"Three months of torture have already made me miserable, how can I bear to let Rokuro suffer such a sin. In addition, for some reason, my mind was chaotic at the time, and I didn't have the ability to think at all, so I just nodded and jumped off the rockery......"

When Shen Lingxi heard this, his face was extremely solemn.

She can see ghosts, and naturally knows that there are no powerful ghosts in this world that require a living sacrifice to be reborn.

And all the strange things that the former crown princess experienced, if the people of the Great Zhou heard it, they might feel extremely bizarre.

But in Shen Lingxi's opinion, he only felt that the technique was extremely familiar.

"After Niangniang died, did the soul see clearly, who is the person who harmed you?" She asked bluntly.

A hint of surprise flashed in Xie Zhanghua's eyes.

She didn't expect Shen Lingxi to assert that she was killed so quickly.

Thinking of the murderer's appearance, a layer of resentment immediately filled her body, "I saw ......"
