The rebirth of the poisonous girl is back

Chapter 121 The Truth Comes Out
The Luoxia Pavilion is far away from the other main courtyards, and Su Aoyu's voice cannot be heard, so it is difficult for people outside to hear it.

Jingse is not here tonight, only Qing'er is guarding the courtyard by herself, and she rushed in quickly.

Deliberately not lighting the candle, Qing'er carried the lantern and went to Su Aoyu's bed, saw Su Aoyu huddled in a ball by the dim light, trembling all over, muttering: "Don't come, don't come!"

"Ma'am."

Qing'er called out, but Su Aoyu didn't respond.

With a thought, Qing'er lifted the lantern up and shone it from her chin. She had been disfigured before, and the scars on her face had disappeared. Now being illuminated by the lantern like this, she looked even more ferocious and terrifying.

The moment Su Aoyu looked up, she saw Qing'er's appearance, and her eyes almost popped out with fright.

"Ah-ahhh-ghost-help-"

Qing'er sneered, walked slowly over to light all the candles, and walked back again.

Su Aoyu was so frightened that she lost her mind, her already bloodless face turned pale like a dead person, she trembled more and more, and tried to shrink her body towards the corner of the wall.

"Ma'am, what's the matter with you?" Qing'er put on her veil, sat down on the edge of the bed, her eyes showed concern, "This servant is Qing'er!"

Su Aoyu suddenly raised her head, seeing the candles around her were all lit up, she grabbed Qing'er's arm firmly, and said incoherently: "Hurry up and save me, there is a ghost coming to seek my life."

Qing'er patted the back of her hand and comforted her: "Ma'am, you just had a nightmare. Where do ghosts come from in this world?"

"No! I saw it just now." Su Aoyu held Qing'er's hand tighter and tighter, "It's her, it must be her, Yang Qizhen, she has been dead for so many years and still dares to linger, Qing'er, hurry up Go and inform the master, go and invite a Taoist priest with high skill to take this ghost away."

Qing'er sat still, still consoling, "Madam, Second Madam just disappeared many years ago and never came back. She has no grievances with you, how could she turn into a ghost and come to you?"

When Qing'er said this, she looked out of the window.

Jing Lan was on the beam outside.

Before, Jingse ordered Qing'er to prepare a lantern, put the little paper doll into the lantern, and hang it under the beam of the opposite window, and Jing Lan left all the rest.

Jing Lan has martial arts skills, so it is not difficult to extinguish the candles in the room. After all the candles are extinguished, he will be responsible for lighting the lantern outside when the fireworks rise to mid-air. The paper figurines will be magnified many times and projected on the east wall of the room. Under the influence of colorful fireworks, the silhouette of the "ghost" projected by the little paper figurines will be more ferocious and have a more terrifying effect.

It was precisely because of this that Su Aoyu was frightened and screamed in an instant.

"Hahaha!" Su Aoyu laughed strangely, "How could she still be alive?"

Hearing this sentence, Qing'er looked outside again, she could feel that Jing Lan was silent for a long time.

After laughing, Su Aoyu urged Qing'er to go to Jing Yuhuan to ask Taoist priests to catch ghosts.

Qing'er got up helplessly, picked up the lantern and went out again.

Just after stepping out of the threshold, all the candles in the room were extinguished again, and the "spirit" on the east wall appeared again.

"Qing'er—ghost—ahhh—there is a ghost—" Su Aoyu fell off the bed in fright, and crawled out desperately, the heart-wrenching itchiness on her arm came again, and she was so frightened The screams continued, but he couldn't bear the itching on his arm, so he lay on the ground and rolled in fear while scratching his arm desperately.

Qing'er stood outside, looked at Jing Lan on the beam and kept her expression on the ground. She didn't go in again to light the candle until the cries inside became more and more tragic.

"Madam, what's wrong with you?" Qing'er helped her up and sat on the bed.

Su Aoyu grabbed her hand and said tremblingly: "Don't go, there is a ghost in this room, take me away quickly!"

Qing'er said: "Ma'am, tonight is the Lantern Festival, and there are fireworks going off outside. Are you too tired and hallucinating?"

"Impossible!" Su Aoyu reluctantly stretched out her finger, her fingernails were full of blood stains, pointing to the east wall, she said: "The ghost is in that wall, I saw it, she wants to kill me. "

After saying that, Su Aoyu began to cry, "Qing'er, take me out of here quickly, I don't want to die yet, I don't want to die yet!"

Qing'er raised her voice and said: "Eldest Madam, don't worry, Eldest Master will be here soon."

These words were obviously addressed to Jing Lan.

After hearing this, Jing Lan on the beam outside jumped out of Luoxia Pavilion to call for someone.

Su Aoyu heard a slight wind passing by outside, she hurriedly hugged her knee with her intact arm, and kept shrinking back, shaking like chaff, the deep sunken eye sockets matched with the dead gray color on her face, let her see It looks like a ghost.

After Jing Lan went to the outer courtyard, she used an excuse to say that she had just passed by the Luoxia Pavilion, and Qing'er asked him to find someone to see the eldest lady.

After Jing Yuhuan received the news, he brought several people here immediately.

When he entered the door and saw Su Aoyu's appearance, Jing Yuhuan was startled.

The flesh on her right arm had been plucked alive to the point where bones could be seen, but she seemed unconscious.

Qing'er hurriedly stood up to greet her.

Jing Yuhuan didn't care about all these etiquettes, and quickly waved Qing'er to stand up and answer.

"What's going on?" Jing Yuhuan's voice was full of unspeakable anger.

Qing'er trembled her lips and said: "Since the night fell, the eldest lady has been clamoring that there are ghosts in the room, she doesn't want to stay any longer, and begs the master to let her go back to Linglong Courtyard."

Jing Yuhuan frowned deeply, his eyes were fixed on Su Aoyu's delirious face, and he said in a deep voice, "Luoxia Pavilion is the courtyard where Arthur used to live. Where did the ghost come from?"

"Master, master, there really is a ghost!" Su Aoyu became excited when she heard the word "ghost", and rolled off the bed with a grunt. Too busy to put on her shoes, she crawled to Jing Yuhuan's feet and used a Holding his trouser leg with one hand, Jing Yuhuan frowned repeatedly at his unkempt appearance.

Without waiting for him to open his mouth, Su Aoyu said: "There is a ghost in the room, the master quickly save me, the ghost has come to look for my concubine."

Su Aoyu's sore arm made Jing Yuhuan feel sick, he kicked her away and snorted coldly, "I don't do anything wrong with my heart, and I am not afraid of ghosts knocking on the door in the middle of the night. It has been refurbished and repaired according to your requirements, and someone comes to clean it every day, why haven't you heard anyone say that there are ghosts?"

"Master—" Su Aoyu cried out heartbreakingly, "I am not lying, there is really a ghost here!"

Jing Yuhuan gave her a disgusted look, "Look at your current appearance. It's lucky that you won't be scared when the ghost sees you. Which ghost do you expect to dare to scare you?"

After the reprimand, Jing Yuhuan didn't want to stay any longer, turned around to leave, and told Qing'er, "Please take care of the eldest lady, don't let her take the opportunity to run out and harm others."

Qing'er bowed her knees in response.

Unexpectedly, just as Jing Yuhuan stepped over the threshold, Su Aoyu rushed over at once, biting Jing Yuhuan's calf with his teeth.

Jing Yuhuan let out a cry of pain, and kicked Su Aoyu in the face. After Su Aoyu groaned, only a delirious laugh remained.

"You crazy woman!" Jing Yuhuan bent down in pain, and the muscles on his face throbbed several times.

Qing'er asked in a low voice: "My lord, is it okay?"

Jing Yuhuan slowly stood up and walked for a while, limping, he was so angry that he just gave Su Aoyu a hard look, then looked at Qing'er, and asked, "How long has the madam been with this symptom?"

Qing'er truthfully said: "Last night, the eldest lady waited on her personally, but the eldest lady's arm was itchy, and this did not happen. Tonight, the eldest lady was not here. When the fireworks were set off outside, the eldest lady's whole face changed, as if it was true. Shouting as if seeing something, no matter how much the slaves try to persuade them, they can’t stop.”

"Crazy! It's crazy!" Jing Yuhuan's teeth were itching with hatred. For a high-ranking official like him, if it was reported that his wife was crazy and haunted the room all day long, where would he put his face in the future? ?
As soon as he thought of this, Jing Yuhuan became ruthless, "I will send more people to guard the Luoxia Pavilion in a while, and I must not let the matter of the eldest lady get out."

Qing'er hesitated and said: "My lord, instead of letting the lady be so worried and yelling, why not just follow her request and invite a Taoist priest to act as a show, so that we can feel more at ease, and secondly, we can be more stable. Madam, it may help her condition."

Jing Yuhuan fell into deep thought after hearing this, and said for a long time, "I still have to ask the old lady about this matter, that's all for now, please take care of her, and don't let her make trouble again."

After Jing Yuhuan left, the room suddenly fell into silence, Su Aoyu tightly held Qing'er's arm to prevent her from leaving.

Jing Se and the others who went to the Lantern Festival also came back soon. Gu Beiyu, who had been a coolie all night, parted ways with her and entered the palace halfway, and Fan Chen also waved goodbye to her halfway.

After returning, several people went to the Millennium Hall together.

When she entered the door and saw Jing Yuhuan was there, and Jing Yuhuan and the old lady's expressions were not very good, Jing Se already guessed what happened, presumably everything was proceeding according to her plan.

Since it was late at night, Jing Shurao and the others went back to the yard after inviting Ann.

Jing Se and Jing Wan Bai stayed behind.

Jing Se looked at Jing Yuhuan and asked, "Father, you came to the Millennium Hall so late, but what happened?"

Jing Yuhuan sighed silently, "It's your mother's condition that got worse."

Jing Wanbai's complexion changed slightly, "How could this be? I only went to see it during the day. Mother was still fine at that time. Could it be that the maids didn't take good care of her when we went out tonight?"

As soon as Jing Yuhuan heard Jing Wanbai's voice, he felt bored. When he raised his eyes, he saw that she was radiantly dressed, and Su Aoyu's dead face involuntarily appeared in his mind. He frowned even deeper, and said angrily, "Wan Bai, since it's you Mother is seriously ill, why don't you go to Luoxia Pavilion to take care of her?"

Jing Wan Bai panicked, and after glancing at Jing Se, he hurriedly said: "I went there during the day, but later the eldest sister said that it would be fine for her to take care of her over there. I was afraid I couldn't do well, so I..."

Jing Yuhuan's face darkened immediately, "You won't learn if you can't do well? Mrs. Su is your biological mother, and Arthur, a stepdaughter, can do well. Why can't you, your own daughter?"

Jing Se raised her eyebrows and said nothing, she knew that Jing Wan Bai would use her as a shield at such a critical moment, but no matter how Jing Wan Bai blocked it, the fact that she didn't take care of her biological mother was enough for Jing Yuhuan and the old man People get angry.

Especially Jing Wanbai's glamorous attire is in stark contrast to Su Aoyu's lifelessness, it's no wonder that Jing Yuhuan is not angry when he sees it.

"Father." Jing Wan Bai knelt on the ground quickly, with tears in his eyes, "It's not that my daughter doesn't care about her mother, it's just that her mother is so seriously ill, and she relies too much on elder sister. If I go, it will only be a disservice to help, and it will not help at all."

The old lady frowned and looked down, "So you ignored your mother and went to the Lantern Festival with your sisters?"

"I..." Jing Wan Bai wanted to argue, but Jing Yuhuan gave him a cold look.

Jing Wan Bai's heart turned cold, and he turned his head to look at Jing Se, hoping that Jing Se could stand up and say something fair for her at this time.

Jing Se smiled indistinctly, stood up and said, "Third Sister, since the Lantern Festival is back, let's not talk about unnecessary things. I heard from my father that my mother's condition has worsened. You will go back to the yard to clean up after a while." Come with me to live in Luoxia Pavilion to serve my mother. Filial piety is not something that can be said, if you go to serve the sick, I believe that neither grandma nor father will blame you again."

After finishing speaking, Jing Se looked at Jing Yuhuan and the old lady, and pleaded: "Grandmother, father, there is only such a lantern festival a year, and it is human nature for the third younger sister to want to go out to play. Both left and right have already gone, and the previous mistakes are also gone." It has happened, and now it can only be made up for by the day after tomorrow. The third sister is a sensible person, she will not let her mother be seriously ill and ignore it, and please father and grandmother not to pursue the fault of the third sister for Arthur's sake .”

After listening to Jing Se's words, Jing Yuhuan's expression slowly eased, and he waved his hands and said, "Forget it, as long as Wan Bai has the heart to repent and go to serve the sick with you, I will take care of the matter before this." let bygones be bygones."

Jing Se passed a step, and Jing Wan Bai could only go down at this time, she solemnly nodded and assured: "Father, grandmother, please rest assured, Wan Bai will spare no effort to take good care of mother. "

After Jing Se and Jing Wanbai left the Millennium Hall, Jing Yuhuan continued the topic just now, bowed and said, "Mother, do you have any comments on the matter of inviting Taoist priests I suggested just now?"

The old lady frowned, and said: "Since it is to appease people's hearts, then do as you said, but you must strictly control it, there are many people in the mansion, don't let anyone leak this matter, lest It was a joke."

"Son, save it." Jing Yuhuan nodded.

When Jing Wanbai packed her things and came to Luoxia Pavilion, Qing'er had already packed her room.

Jing Wan Bai looked at the simple furnishings in the house, and immediately frowned, "My room is just such things?"

Qing'er said: "Miss San, it's an extraordinary time, so just make do with it, after all, the lady's body is the main thing."

After hearing this, Jing Wan Bai remembered the attitude of his grandmother and father when he was in the Millennium Hall, so he had to endure it.

Glancing around, Jing Wan Bai managed to force herself to get used to this crude room, and she ordered Qing'er, "Go and prepare warm water for me to bathe in."

Qing'er stood still, and said with a wooden face: "Miss, if you want to take a bath, you may have to go back to the Linglong Courtyard. The servants came to the Luoxia Pavilion with the eldest lady to serve the eldest lady, not to serve your daily necessities. My personal servant girl, I hope you will forgive me."

When Jing Wan Bai heard this, anger rose in his chest, "Go if you are told, what's the point?"

Qing'er turned around and walked out, but she didn't prepare warm water for Jing Wanbai's bath, but went to the side room where Jing Se lived.

Jing Se had already changed into plain clothes, and after listening to Qing'er's report, she sneered, "Jing Wan Bai was really spoiled and raised, but she just moved a place, she doesn't adapt to this, nor does that It's really hard to imagine how she will react if I ask her to serve Mrs. Su for a while."

Qing'er snorted coldly: "This servant girl is clearly Mu Yunju's maidservant, she is so domineering and orderly, she just doesn't pay attention to the young miss."

Jing Se rolled up her clothes, "You go to Su's room first, I'll see Jing Wan Bai, and I'll be there soon."

Qing'er left quickly after taking the order.

Jing se came out of the ear room and walked slowly to the wing room.

Jing Wan Bai is placing things, maybe Jing Se will come in, she turned around, with a stiff smile on her face, "Eldest sister, are you here?"

Jing Se glanced around, and said, "I'll see if you're getting used to living here on the first day."

Jing Wan Bai's smile deepened, "Since it's to take care of my mother, no matter how hard or tiring I will suffer."

"En." Jing Se nodded with satisfaction, "Then, you can go and wipe your mother's body in a while."

"What?" Jing Wan Bai couldn't react for a moment, "Wipe your mother's body?"

"Yeah!" Jing Se blinked, "Mother is in the current situation, it's impossible to take a bath, and someone has to help wipe her body every day, otherwise she will definitely not be able to sleep peacefully."

Hearing what Jing Se said, Jing Wan Bai once again thought of what he saw during the day, his stomach churned again, and his nausea gradually increased, but in front of Jing Se, Jing Wan Bai had to maintain his image no matter what, She endured it for a long time before she managed to suppress the strong feeling of vomiting, and said, "Isn't Qing'er here?"

Jing Se raised her eyebrows, "Then, what are you doing, third sister?"

"Sick servant!" Jing Wan Bai answered it as a matter of course.

"Very good." Jing Se nodded with a half-smile, "Then you rest earlier, and I won't bother you."

Jing Wan Bai stood by the door and watched Jing Se go away, a look of contempt gradually appeared in his eyes, hum!She, Jing Wan Bai, will be the one who wants to be the mother of the world in the future, how can she do the rough work that servants would do?

Taking a peek outside the door, Jing Wanbai saw that Jing Se was wiping Su Aoyu's body, so he went back to the room in peace, washed up briefly, blew out the candles and rested.

When Jing Wan Bai came to take a peek, Jing Se had already noticed it. She deliberately didn't let Qing'er make a sound, so the master and servant pretended not to know.

After Jing Wanbai left, Jing Se asked Qing'er to take the small bamboo tube filled with smoke to pierce Jing Wanbai's window paper and blow the smoke in.

After everything was done on Qing'er's side, Jing Se just gave Su Aoyu a sleeping needle to let her rest peacefully.

Back in the room, Jing Se told Qing'er, "Don't call Jing Wan Bai tomorrow morning, let her sleep well."

Qing'er showed a triumphant smile, "I understand."

One night passed in a blink of an eye.

In the early morning of the next day, Jing Se and Qing'er got up just before dawn, and they were preparing toilet utensils and decocting medicine for Su Aoyu. The master and servant were so busy that they barely touched the ground.

When the sky was bright, just as Jing Se's first bowl of soup was ready, Jing Yuhuan came in with a man dressed as a Taoist priest.

Jing Se hurriedly got up to greet her, "Morning, father."

Jing Yuhuan nodded and asked her, "How did your mother sleep last night?"

Jing Se shook her head and said: "It's still the same, always saying that the room is haunted, but Qing'er and I have stayed for two nights, and we haven't seen any ghosts."

Jing Yuhuan glanced at the Taoist priest, and said: "You have to look carefully in a while, if you don't see good after doing the ritual, be careful, I will drag you to see the official!"

The Taoist was terrified.

Jing Se came forward and said: "Father, I have a few words that I want to tell the master alone, and hope that he will stop saying something exciting in front of his mother for a while."

Jing Yuhuan nodded, "Go!"

Jing Se took the opportunity to pull the Taoist priest aside, quietly took out a piece of silver from his sleeve pocket and handed it to him, and said: "After you finish the ceremony, tell everyone that there is a lot of resentment on the east wall of the upper room. Seriously, there are indeed souls trapped here, who have not left for many years."

The Taoist smiled and accepted the silver ingot, "Miss, please rest assured, it is the rule of our business to use other people's money to eliminate disasters for others."

Jing Se smiled with satisfaction, "Then, it will be up to you in a while, so don't make mistakes."

The Taoist rolled the silver ingot into his sleeve pocket, then stroked his beard pretendingly, and said loudly: "The poor Taoist understands what the eldest lady ordered, so you can just rest assured that the poor Taoist master is Maoshan Taoist priest. Dao has won the true biography of the patriarch, catching monsters and ghosts is no problem, I will do a ritual in a while, and promise to catch this ghost for you."

Jing Seyan smiled at Yanyan, "Then thank you, Master."

Jing Yuhuan didn't believe in ghosts and gods. The reason why he invited such a Taoist priest was to stabilize the hearts of the people in the mansion and let Su Aoyu calm down temporarily. Therefore, Jing Yuhuan didn't let go of what the Taoist said. In his heart, but he still prepared the altar according to the Taoist's instructions.

After half an hour, everything was ready.

According to the rules, Jing Se, Jing Yuhuan and other miscellaneous personnel must first exit Luoxia Pavilion and wait outside.

Jing Yuhuan glanced around, only seeing Jing Se and Qing'er, his face was slightly angry, "Where's Jing Wan Bai?"

Jing Se looked in the direction of the wing room, and said, "Third sister must not have woken up yet."

Jing Yuhuan shouted dissatisfiedly: "What's going on, you still haven't woken up at this time?"

Jing Se said: "I don't know. After the third sister moved in last night, she said that she was too tired after visiting the lantern festival all night, so she took a rest first. Unexpectedly, she hasn't woken up at this hour."

Jing Yuhuan's face turned cold, and he told Qing'er, "Go to the wing room and see if that unfilial girl has woken up."

Qing'er quickly trotted over with her skirt in hand.

Jing Wan Bai was caught in the smoke last night, so naturally he is still in a deep sleep now.

After Qing'er went in, she couldn't wake Jing Wanbai up after several calls, so she simply took the silver needle used to pick up the wick and poked Jing Wanbai's body hard.

Jing Wan Bai was awakened by the pain. When she woke up and saw Qing'er looking at her anxiously, she was a little at a loss, "What's wrong?"

Qing'er had put away the silver needle used to poke Jing Wanbai a long time ago, and she said seriously: "Miss San, it's past time, the master is about to open the altar to do things, why have you slept so long and can't afford it now?" ?”

When Jing Wanbai heard the words, he didn't care about losing his composure, and said anxiously: "Then why didn't you wake me up earlier?"

Qing'er said: "The servant accompanied the eldest lady to the room to take care of the eldest lady early in the morning. Who would have expected the third lady to be so sleepy? The servant remembered that you rested early last night. I thought I could get up early today. , who knew you..."

Before Qing'er finished speaking, Jing Wanbai could already imagine that Jing Yuhuan and the old lady would be furious when they found out about this matter.

After hurriedly putting on her clothes and getting out of bed, Jing Wan Bai realized that her body was tingling with pain. She frowned and muttered, "Why does my waist hurt so much?"

Qing'er's eyes flashed a little bit of complacency, but she urged: "Miss San, hurry up, the Elder Master will get angry if he waits in a while."

Jing Wanbai didn't doubt that he was there, dressed and dressed quickly, followed Qing'er out of the courtyard gate of Luoxia Pavilion, and left the courtyard for the Taoist priests to practice.

Jing Yuhuan and Jing Se didn't go far, they sat in the pavilion outside, saw Jing Wanbai coming out with Qing'er, Jing Yuhuan's expression was indescribably gloomy, and he waved to Jing Wanbai, "Come here!"

Jing Wan Bai felt uneasy, but he had no choice but to follow his father's wishes, and walked over cautiously holding up the hem of his skirt.

"Since you came to serve the sick, why did you only get up now?" Jing Yuhuan cast a cold look, which made Jing Wanbai flustered.

She gathered herself together and explained in a low voice, "Father, my daughter took care of her mother last night and didn't go back to her room until late. She was too tired, so she woke up a little late this morning."

After finishing speaking, he did not forget to glance at Jing Se, "If father doesn't believe it, you can ask elder sister."

There was a sneer on the corner of Jingse's lips, and she looked over, "Third sister, before you went out last night, your mother said that she wanted to eat a certain food. I forgot what it was."

Jing Wan Bai opened her mouth in astonishment, looking down at Shang Jing Yuhuan's questioning gaze, she lowered her eyes and said, "It's bean porridge. Mother said that she has no appetite for the past two days, so she asked the kitchen to make some light bean porridge."

Jing Yuhuan just listened, and the blue veins on his forehead popped out immediately, "You unfilial daughter, kneel down for me!"

Su Aoyu's current appearance, not to mention bean porridge, is considered good if he can be fed with water.

Before the Taoist did it, Jing Se took Jing Yuhuan to see it. Su Aoyu was dying and had completely fallen into a state of madness. As long as someone opened the door and let the wind in, she would be startled and said that a ghost was coming, and she didn't recognize Jing Se. She didn't even recognize Jing Yuhuan, she would hold on to anyone she saw, and kept calling for help, desperately saying that there was a ghost looking for her life.

With this appearance, how could Su Aoyu ask for something to eat?
Jing Wanbai obviously didn't even step in the door of the upper room last night, so she naturally didn't know what Su Aoyu had become, so she didn't have the confidence to speak in front of Jing Yuhuan at this time.Being able to make Jing Yuhuan so angry, Jing Se thinks she is a talent.

Jing Wan Bai was frightened for a while, and hurriedly knelt down in front of Jing Yuhuan, with a weak voice, "Father, I don't know what my daughter did wrong?"

Jing Yuhuan was furious, and stared at her, "You still don't know how to repent?"

Jing Wan Bai had lied before, so it was naturally impossible to expose her slap in the face at this time, she started to cry, the pear blossom with rain on her face was very delicate.

The more Jing Yuhuan looked at her, the more disappointed he felt, "Your mother is so ill that you don't even want to go in and have a look at her now, Jing Wanbai, how can there be such a heartless daughter like you in this world? If you go out, who dares to ask a heartless daughter like you to be his wife?"

Jing Wanbai took a breath, raised his head, and hurriedly grabbed the corner of Jing Yuhuan's long robe, "Father, father clearly learned that Wan Bai has indeed visited his mother. If father can't listen to the villain's one-sided words, he will give it to his daughter." Condemned!"

Jing Se raised her brows slightly, looking at Jing Wan Bai with only indifference.

"Enough!" Jing Yuhuan interrupted her in a cold voice, "I thought you were a generalist, as long as you obediently admit your mistakes in front of me, I will let you forget the past for the seriousness of your mother. I think you not only didn’t realize your fault, but intensified it, lying in front of me again and again, and now you say that there is a villain instigating in my ear, but you talk about it, who is present? villain?"

Jing Wan Bai clenched his fists, and quickly glanced at Jing Se viciously.

Jing Se sat still, turning a blind eye.

Jing Wan Bai still didn't give up, and cried harder, "Father, but someone told you that I didn't take care of my mother?"

Given so many steps, Jing Wanbai still didn't know how to walk down, instead he repeatedly provoked Jing Yuhuan's patience and bottom line, which made Jing Yuhuan not angry, so he slapped Jing Wanbai hard in an instant. Slap.

Jing Wan Bai was stunned by the beating, she quickly covered the painful half of her cheek, tears kept falling.

Jing Yuhuan's pupils narrowed slightly, and anger rose in his chest, "Last night you left your mother behind to go to the Lantern Festival, so I didn't say much. I'll give you a chance to reform yourself for the sake of your elder sister. I didn't expect Not only did you not repent, you even dared to lie to me, Jing Wan Bai, who gave you the courage?"

Jing Yuhuan's words were so clear, if Jing Wanbai still dared to argue, the fate could be imagined, she pursed her lips tightly, gritted her teeth for a long time before admitting her mistake, "Father, my daughter knows I was wrong, please A father gives his daughter another chance."

Jing Yuhuan was so angry that he would never buy Jing Wanbai's account.

Jing Wan Bai knew this very well, so he looked at Jing Se and begged: "Sister, you and I are sisters, and we came to serve the sick together, so I won't pursue the matter of you hiding the truth from your father, I don't know What did you say in front of your father that made him so angry, but my biological mother lived in Luoxia Pavilion anyway, how could I disregard her life or death? Eldest sister, the past between us sisters has passed. That's fine, but in this situation, can you tell the truth to my father so that he won't misunderstand me again?"

Jing Se raised her eyebrows, "What does the third sister want me to say?"

Jing Wanbai's eyes were red, and he said angrily: "Last night, you told me to rest first, why did I become disobedient to my mother in the end and didn't go to see her?"

Jing Se's face remained unchanged, "Third sister, you have to speak according to your conscience. I was so busy last night wiping my mother's body and soaking her arms that I didn't even see your face. How can I have the time to talk to you about these things?"

When Jing Wan Bai heard this, he became impatient, "Eldest sister, why bother to argue, if you hadn't told me that there is Qing'er in the upper room who will take care of my mother, I would be able to rest so early? It's clear that you deliberately framed me for the troubles today. , making me unable to hold my head up in front of my father."

Jing Se raised the corners of her lips, "Third sister, since you rested early last night, why did you just insist that you got up late because you were too tired to take care of your mother until late at night? Aren't you lying to your father? Besides Mother is so seriously ill, not only did she not get your careful care, but she wanted to hide this matter for you, if mother wakes up, she will be so heartbroken!"

Jing Se's harsh words undoubtedly pushed Jing Wan Bai's crimes to the peak.

Jing Yuhuan was furious, "Well, Jing Wanbai, I've been cultivating you meticulously for so many years, but I never expected to be played around by you." Already furious to the extreme, Jing Yuhuan's face was so gloomy that he didn't know how to describe it, " There is your biological mother, once she dies, you, the biological daughter, will have to observe mourning for three years, presumably you have no objection to this matter, otherwise you wouldn't have left her alone."

At this moment, Jing Wanbai suddenly woke up. She had been afraid of seeing the disgusting wound on Su Aoyu's arm before, so she avoided seeing it. She always found excuses to shirk it. She never thought that once her biological mother died, her biological daughter would have to keep her filial piety. If it was true After three years of filial piety, how could she marry into the Eastern Palace?

Thinking of this, Jing Wan Bai's whole body froze, his crying stopped abruptly, and he was in a daze for a long time, just about to say something, when he saw the Taoist priest running out of Luoxia Pavilion.

Seeing him walking in a hurry, Jing Yuhuan couldn't help frowning deeply, went up to meet him, and asked, "Master, what's the matter?"

The Taoist glanced at Jing Se indiscriminately, and after getting a nod of approval from the other party, he said in shock: "Sure enough, as the poor Taoist expected, there is indeed a resentful ghost trapped in this yard. If you can't get rid of it early, It will definitely cause unrest in the family in the future."

Jing Yuhuan suddenly became angry, "You're talking nonsense! Where did the ghost come from? It's clear that you are using a quack trick to get more money."

The Taoist stroked his beard, and said with a straight face: "If the right minister thinks that the poor is lying, then the poor has nothing to refute."

Jing Se came down in time and said, "Father, I don't really believe in the theory of ghosts and gods, but the master insists that there is a ghost in Luoxia Pavilion, so we might as well hear where this ghost is and what kind of ghost should be used to get rid of it." There are only ways to dispel the ghosts, and if it doesn’t work if you follow what the master said, then it won’t be too late to punish him.”

Jing Yuhuan felt that it was reasonable, nodded, and then looked at the Taoist priest again, "Then tell me, how can we drive away this ghost?"

The Taoist replied: "This ghost is on the east wall of your lady's room. If you want to find out the identity of the ghost, you have to send someone to tear down the entire wall."

Jing Yuhuan's face darkened, and he stared at the Taoist priest for a moment, obviously questioning.

The Taoist priest was a little guilty at this time, but he caught a glimpse of Jing Se next to him indifferently from the corner of his eye, and he slowly calmed down the anxiety in his heart. The words on the left and right were all told by Miss Jing, and he naturally It doesn't matter, just use other people's money to do things for others.

"Father." Seeing Jing Yuhuan in a daze, Jing Se couldn't help but whisper, "Look...?"

Jing Yuhuan vetoed, "No way!"

Although the Luoxia Pavilion has been vacant for a long time, it is still a brand new courtyard that has only been renovated for a few years. Not to mention that there is no reason to demolish the walls, it is still a big question whether what the Taoist priest said is true.

The Taoist sighed quietly, "That's all the words of the poor Taoist. If the right minister insists on not tearing down the wall, then the poor Taoist has no choice but to accept the ritual and leave."

The Taoist made a gesture to leave.

Looking at his back, Jing Yuhuan suddenly hesitated and called him.

The Taoist turned around, "Master Right, did you suddenly change your mind?"

Jing Yuhuan did not answer directly, but asked: "If the east wall is demolished and the ghosts are dispersed, will my wife's condition be alleviated?"

The Taoist said meaningfully: "Heart disease needs to be treated with heart medicine. Your lady's disease is this heart disease. There are ghosts in her heart, so she can see ghosts everywhere. If you don't get rid of the root cause, you will never be able to recover."

The Taoist's words made Jing Yuhuan narrow his eyes slightly, and believed him a little. Jing Yuhuan, a husband, knew very well what kind of person Su Aoyu was, but he always kept his eyes open and closed his eyes. Just like that, Jing Yuhuan was puzzled by what the Taoist said this time, could it be that Su Aoyu did something outrageous behind his back?
Thinking of this, Jing Yuhuan couldn't calm down anymore, and immediately asked Qing'er to go to the outer courtyard to find more than a dozen servants to come in with tools to tear down the wall and prepare to do it.

Jing Se thought about it, and said softly: "Father, it is not yet certain whether the Taoist priest's words are true or not. Of course, the wall must be demolished, but it is a major event after all, and it cannot be demolished just because we are here to look at it. I I think all the owners of the houses should be called over to watch. If the Taoist priest dares to lie, he will not be able to escape at that time. If it is true, everyone can understand the situation at the first time, and there is no need to go through the day after tomorrow. panic."

Now that Jing Yuhuan trusts Jing Se more and more, he will naturally not question her words. He only thinks for a moment before waving his hand and asking Qing'er to go to each house and courtyard to notify all the masters to come.

It took only a cup of tea before and after, and almost all the masters of each house and courtyard arrived.

After Jing Lan and the second master came, they stood aside.

Jing Shurao and the third master didn't understand why, they were a little dazed, but seeing this posture, they didn't dare to say more, and quietly stood down on the verandah.

Mrs. Liu was serving tea in the Millennium Hall, so she came along with the old lady. The old lady was leaning on a stick, and her eyes were fixed on the Taoist priest. After a long time, she turned to Jing Yuhuan, showing displeasure, " How come you suddenly remembered that you were going to tear down the wall?"

Jing Yuhuan was very helpless, and said truthfully: "Mother, the master said that there is a ghost in the Luoxia Pavilion, and that ghost is hiding in the east wall. I also thought twice before deciding to tear down the wall."

The old lady still had a look of disapproval, "Nonsense! The Taoist priest is clearly just thinking of a calming effect. Where does the saying of 'spirit' come from? Boss, you are too nonsense. How can this courtyard wall be demolished?" disassembled?"

Jing Yuhuan pursed his lips tightly.

Jing Se took the opportunity to say: "Grandmother, since it is to calm people's hearts, then we should do our job well. The master has already said that the ghost is hidden in the east wall, and now everyone in the house knows it. If we insist on If you refuse to tear down the wall, it will inevitably make people suspicious, rumors are fiercer than tigers, and if this matter spreads over time, it will definitely damage the reputation of the Right Prime Minister's Mansion, which is not good."

When the old lady heard this, she glanced around and saw that everyone was worried, she pondered for a while, and waved her hands reluctantly, "Then do it quickly, so that you can teach me what a ghost looks like."

Mrs. Liu immediately moved Zhang Taishi's chair and sat it for the old lady, and all eyes were fixed on the Taoist priest and Jing Yuhuan.

Jing Se wittily took Qing'er to carry Su Aoyu out first and sent her to Jing Wanbai's wing to rest.

After such a big event happened, Jing Yuhuan had long forgotten about Jing Wanbai, and Jing Wanbai also stood up, seeing Jing Se carrying Su Aoyu into her room, she stared, but I didn't dare to say anything, so I had to endure it and stood quietly behind a group of people.

After everything was ready, Jing Yuhuan raised his hand to signal the servant, "It's time to start."

The servants moved quickly, and dozens of people rushed forward and began to dismantle it hurriedly.

Not long after, there was a scream of horror from inside.

The old lady's heart skipped a beat, "What's wrong?"

Jing Yuhuan was also taken aback by the exclamation. Just as he was about to send someone in to inquire, he saw a servant crawling out of the ground, saying incoherently, "Bones... old man, old lady, there is something in the wall." Bones, human bones."

As soon as the servant finished speaking, the expressions of all the people outside changed completely.

Especially Jing Lan, whose delicate face was so pale that it looked terrifying. The second master called him several times before pulling him back to his senses.

"What human bones?" At this moment, no matter how good the old lady's attitude is, no matter how stable her temperament is, she can't continue to be quiet. She stood up from the grand teacher's chair, still in shock.

The servant continued intermittently: "Going back to the old lady, when the younger ones demolished the wall, they found a human bone hidden in the wall."

In this case, it is tantamount to a shocking thunderstorm hitting everyone's heads.

Jing Yuhuan was so dumbfounded that he almost forgot to react.

The old lady stared in astonishment, panting heavily.

Jing Lan had already confirmed that the "human bone" that the servants referred to was his mother's body. His eyes were reddened instantly, his fists were clenched so that his joints were ringing, and his nails were almost embedded in the flesh.

The second master found out that something was wrong with Jing Lan, and came forward and asked in a low voice, "What's wrong with Lan'er?"

Jing Lan reluctantly responded, "Father, I'm fine."

The second master could tell that he wasn't telling the truth, but right now in front of so many people, it was hard for him to ask, so he patted Jing Lan on the shoulder, "If you feel unwell, go back and rest, I'll give the old lady a little while." Just say it."

Jing Lan pulled out a stiff smile and shook his head, "I can hold on." His mother died so wrongly and strangely, how could he go back to rest with peace of mind?

Thinking of this, the hatred in Jing Lan's eyes surged up like raging waves.

Regarding the disappearance of his mother, he has always guessed that it is probably related to his aunt Su Aoyu, but he has never been able to find any evidence, not even a clue. After a long time, he gradually paralyzed himself, subconsciously Li does not want to believe the fact that his mother is dead, but prefers to believe that one day his mother will return to reunite with him.

However, Jing Lan never expected that the day he dreaded most would still come.

He had to face the fact that his mother had been dead for several years, which was tantamount to using the cruelest method in the world to shatter the sweet dream he had been looking forward to, and left him bleeding from body to heart.

The atmosphere at the scene froze for a moment, and everyone was immersed in the shocking news, unable to return to their senses for a long time.

Jing Se made a sound at the right time and looked at the servant, "Can you see clearly? What is hidden in the wall is really a human bone?"

Before this servant had time to answer, another servant rushed out, holding a silver bracelet with a lot of soil embedded in his hand, knelt on the ground and said: "Madam, this is taken from the corpse."

Xie Momo took out the brocade handkerchief and took the bracelet from the servant and presented it to the old lady. Although the fine lines of the bracelet were full of mud, one could still see the general shape.

And this bracelet was exactly the gift given by the old lady when she first met her second wife, Yang Qizhen.

So with just one glance, the old lady recognized it, and she was terrified, "How could it be...?"

Seeing this, Jing Lan could no longer keep calm, rushed over and knelt down in front of the old lady, and said heartbrokenly: "Grandmother, this bracelet belongs to my mother."

One sentence was like a slap in the face, waking everyone up.

The entire compound fell into a state of silence for a moment, and everyone held their breath, struggling to digest the unbelievable news: the second wife, Yang Qizhen, was not missing, she had died a long time ago, but her body had been embedded In the east wall of Luoxia Pavilion.

Jing Yuhuan's face turned deathly, he had already connected the cause and effect of the matter, no wonder Su Aoyu was startled and yelled that he saw a ghost, no wonder the Taoist would say that the ghost is hiding in the east wall, if Su Aoyu didn't do it himself How could this so-called "spirit" appear?
"What the hell is going on!" The old lady almost shook her hand and dropped the bracelet on the ground. She shouted hoarsely, and looked at Jing Yuhuan in horror and anger, "Why did the second daughter-in-law's bracelet appear on the ground?" In the east wall of Luoxia Pavilion, whose corpse is there?"

Jing Yuhuan was left speechless by the question.

Jing Se glanced at Jing Lan, who was crying so hard, and then at the second master with a complex expression, slowly retracted his gaze, and said calmly: "Grandmother, this kind of thing is no longer something we can handle privately, we have to report it as soon as possible. Officials are the ones, lest you have long nights and dreams."

Jing Lan crawled on all fours, her forehead hit the ground heavily, "I also ask my grandmother to uphold justice for my mother!"

The second master came over, with a gloomy face, "Mother, I agree with girl Se on this matter, we must report to the authorities as soon as possible to find out the cause and effect, otherwise, if it is not clear, it will lead to endless troubles."

The old lady's hands were still trembling. She never imagined that a person who had been missing for six years had never stepped out of the gate of the Right Prime Minister's Mansion, but was embedded in the wall in such a cruel way. There is no peace even after death.

Closing her eyes, the old lady's voice was like a heavy weight, "Come on! Go to Jingzhao Mansion to report to the officials!"

Mammy Xie immediately took a few people there.

Everyone at the scene was still in panic and shock. Su Aoyu yelled and laughed madly from Jing Wanbai's room. She was disheveled and crawled outside dragging her seriously ill body. The arm was already suppurated, and every inch he climbed, the pus on the arm was squeezed and rubbed on the ground, which looked extremely disgusting.

Not long after, Su Aoyu climbed out of the Moon Gate, and when she saw a group of people outside, she laughed loudly, "Li Gui... Li Gui has been dug out, and she can no longer seek revenge on me, hahaha, hurry up!" Look, this is the hand of a ghost."

As she said, she took out a small finger bone from her sleeve, and smiled foolishly, "Li Gui, come on, come on, I won't be afraid of you even if you come."

After she finished speaking, she stuffed her finger bones into her mouth, chewed twice and swallowed.

This scene shocked everyone.

Su Aoyu actually ate the finger bones of the Second Lady's corpse!
Jing Wanbai, Jing Shurao and the others almost vomited out.

The old lady was furious, "Crazy! It's crazy! Come and drag this crazy woman down!"

Several women with big arms and round waists walked over and forcefully pulled Su Aoyu up from the ground. She roared, struggled, and opened her mouth to bite if she couldn't struggle.

The women had no choice but to cover Su Aoyu's mouth with a thick cotton cloth.

Su Aoyu's hands and feet were bound, she was startled and cried.

"It's a crime!" The old lady looked at Su Aoyu with a worried look on her face, "It's only been a few days and the situation has become like this."

Jing Yuhuan's face was cloudy and uncertain, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

The second lady's body had been sneaked into the wall for a long time, and it had long been integrated with the wall. It would be very difficult to take out the entire body.

After the servants told the truth about the situation, Jing Yuhuan ordered to stop tearing down the walls, and ordered someone to clean up the small hall of Luoxia Pavilion, and helped the old lady in, and then everyone went to the small hall.

During the whole process, no one dared to say a word, their lips were all white, their faces were ashen, and everyone was terrified.

Sitting on the main seat, the old lady recalled it carefully, and suddenly looked at Jing Yutang, "Second brother, do you still remember when your wife disappeared?"

Jing Yutang didn't even think about it, and said: "Six years ago during the Spring Festival, when I came back, Mrs. Yang was still alive, and only two or three months after my son returned to his post, news of Mrs. Yang's disappearance came out of the mansion."

The old lady looked at Jing Yuhuan again, "Boss, it was you who proposed to renovate Arthur's yard six years ago?"

Jing Yuhuan frowned and vetoed: "Mother Mingjian, this matter is not my son's idea, but Su's initiative to welcome Arthur's arrival, saying that the Luoxia Pavilion has been empty for so many years, and it is a bit old. I want to repair it well so that Arthur won’t get used to it when he returns.”

The old lady's face turned cold, "So, Yang's disappearance has something to do with Su?"

Jing Lan bit her lower lip tightly, and kept looking at Jing Yuhuan with resentment, "Grandmother, my mother was still pregnant with a child when she disappeared!"

Jing Yuhuan lowered his head. Up until now, there had been many evidences proving that Yang's death had something to do with Su Aoyu. As a husband, he could neither refute nor stop the second wife from harboring hatred towards him.

The second master was shocked, and looked at Jing Lan in disbelief, "What did you say?"

Jing Lan endured the severe pain in her heart, and said: "I have never had time to tell my father about this matter. My mother became pregnant not long after you left. At that time, her heart and eyes were full of surprises from the arrival of a little life. Who would have thought In just a short time, she disappeared without a trace with the child in her womb, so that we couldn't find any trace. Father, no matter what, you must justify your mother. She didn't abandon you and run away with other men, but Already dead."

Hearing this, the second master's body stiffened slightly.
