The favorite wife of the black-bellied prime minister

Chapter 30
The two girls were so frightened that their legs went limp, and they kowtowed and begged for mercy in shock and fear: "Sister Mulian, please, please forgive us... this side courtyard... the side courtyard... is haunted..."

"Haunted?" Mulian pointed at them with one hand on her hip and said, "I tell you, don't confuse people here! I didn't scare you!"

The two girls looked at each other, and one replied tremblingly: "It's all true! Sister Mulian, listen to us... Since, since the eldest son's third wife died of illness three years ago, in the middle of the night often... ...I can hear the cries of ghosts in the side courtyard, and they linger for a long time. Xiangye... invited a magician to come and see, and they all said that Mrs. Sanfang died of illness, and the resentment was too heavy. Their ghosts have been refusing to disperse, so... just It is attached to the peach blossom forest in the side courtyard. We didn’t believe it at first, but one night, someone saw... a shadow washing his hair by the stream in the peach blossom forest. That person had no face, no eyes, tongue... a tongue Bloody, three... three inches long..."

After finishing speaking, the two people knocked their heads more violently, hitting the ground one after another, and the bruises gradually began to bleed: "Sister Mulian, please! Please let the servants go, don't let them go to the side courtyard! "

After Mulian heard this, she couldn't help shivering. The ginkgo tree behind her was rustling. She looked back, but saw nothing.It's fine if you don't know the inside story, but the two girls described it too realistically, her whole body started to get hairy, her scalp was numb, a huge rockery was placed in front of the side courtyard, blocking the legendary peach blossom forest, and she looked even more beautiful. weird.

Mulian boldly took a step in, and shouted to the two girls on the ground: "Coward! Come with me! It's broad daylight, what's so scary?! If there are female ghosts, I will beat one at sight, and two at sight. A pair! Come on, get up! The princess is still waiting inside!"

Mulian is too arrogant, her aura is comparable to that of a shrew, and she is Princess Jing's personal maid, how dare those two girls offend her?Wiping her tears, she got up on limp legs, and followed behind Mu Lian step by step.

The three of them turned around the dark rockery and saw a small stream flowing towards the colorful peach blossom grove. Because the surroundings were so quiet, the slight sound of running water was amplified, attracting Mulian's attention. A scene of a female ghost washing her hair by the stream flashed in my mind. The female ghost suddenly turned her head, her face was blank, her tongue was bloody, three inches long...

There was a sudden "plop" in the slight sound of rushing water, and the girl behind her screamed "ah".

"Ah!" Mulian also jumped up in fright, turned around suddenly, and slammed her back against the thick peach blossom tree, and saw the two girls hugging each other, closing their eyes and shouting, a bird floated on the water. The frog, with a pair of big eyes, is extraordinarily innocent.There was another "plop", and the frog kicked his legs suddenly, jumped forward, and splashed water.

At this point, the truth came out, it was only a toad that caused the chaos.

However, it was this frog that frightened Mulian completely. Although she still ordered the two maids to follow her ferociously, she had no confidence when passing by the path in the peach blossom forest, and her heart would "thump" at the slightest sign of trouble. With a jump, the image of that faceless female ghost sticking out her tongue immediately appeared in my mind!

The peach blossom forest is dense, walking in it even the sunlight is blocked, and it is spring, one or two little snakes wake up from hibernation by chance, walking through the forest, just happened to be met by three people, screaming in panic...

Bai Lijing didn't wait for Mulian and the others, she had already walked through the peach blossom forest and arrived at the hut surrounded by green bamboos. Because she had never heard the rumors of the scary female ghost, she was open-minded, so she didn't feel scared along the way.

Compared with night, the scenery of the side courtyard can be seen more clearly during the day - the small bridge nearby, the warm peach blossoms in the distance, the green bamboo in it, the green banana leaves in front of the house, the birds Crowing cheerfully on the branches, it seems that the surroundings are becoming more and more quiet and quiet.Even the air inhaled into the nostrils is moister and more transparent than that in Daxing Palace, a bit of an illusion of being on Lutai Mountain.

After standing outside the door for a while, Yuan Shan came out. He seemed to have discovered her just now, and hurriedly saluted, "Princess, why are you here?"

Bai Lijing turned her head and said with a smile: "Is the eldest son awake?"

Yuan Shan lowered his head and hesitated: "Well, I just woke up..."

"Then I'll go in and have a look." Bai Lijing said and pushed open the door.

Seeing that she was holding a food box in her hand, Yuan Shan frowned, wanting to grab it and smash it to pieces!However, the master did not give an order, so he could not act rashly, so he had to watch the "poison" step into the threshold.

Mo Wen's room was furnished very simply, with no rare or antique items in it. The main tone was black. Whether it was the tables, chairs, bookshelves, bed, or the six screens that had just been bypassed, they were all in dark colors.The six screens at the entrance and the bookshelf placed in the northeast corner are all made of simple ebony wood, and the carvings are simple and not complicated, which shows the taste and habits of the owner.

Light smoke rose from the incense burner on the table, the window was open, and a breeze blew by, the light smoke drifted towards the bed, and got behind the dark curtain. Jing stood there without moving.

Suddenly, there was a weak coughing sound from behind the curtain, Bailijing hurriedly put the food box on the table, and walked over.Stretching out his hand to open the curtain, he saw Mo Wen sitting on the head of the bed with his eyes closed, his jacket loosely spread out, revealing a large chest, and his hair messily draped over his shoulders. It would be very difficult to ignore his weakness Some bohemian taste.

Bailijing blushed, she hurriedly turned her eyes away before seeing anything clearly, and was about to put down the curtain when Mo Wen grabbed her hand.His palm was warm and cold, although the strength was not strong, it felt a little irresistible.

Bailijing was faintly surprised. Looking back, Mo Wen's eyes were still as calm and uncontested as ever. Seeing that she finally looked at him, he slightly curved his lips and smiled, and pulled her to sit on the bedside .

He spread her palm and was about to write something, but he couldn't stop coughing, his whole chest was shaking, he had to let go of her hand, and he was about to fall down.

Bai Lijing instinctively leaned forward to support him, passed her arm under Mo Wen's left armpit, wrapped around his back, patted him lightly to help him breathe, and asked, "What's wrong? What do you want to say?"

They are too close to see each other's expressions clearly, but they can smell each other's body and feel each other's body temperature even more.

The corners of Mo Wen's lips curled up, his long arms wrapped around her waist, he sighed, and shook his head lightly, his messy black hair brushed against Bailijing's neck immediately, causing a numb itching, and he shook his head slightly. low, her lips touched her jade-like earlobe...

The warm breath blew past, and Bai Lijing's head suddenly turned to the side. Just as her brows were furrowed, Mo Wen sat up straight, leaned back, and stared at her condescendingly.His face was still pale, and his expression was as calm as usual, as if the intimacy just now was just an accident, even he himself hadn't noticed it.
