Chapter 94 Haunted
In the list of marriages circulated outside, Zhuhua is more familiar with the eldest son of the Yuhou family. She once met the eldest son during the Chinese New Year. It is calm.

"How about that princess, is he worthy of Shizi Yu?"

"Why is the princess' daughter not worthy?" Yinhua said and nodded her forehead, "You have only met a few people, can you tell who is good and who is bad?"

Zhuhua rolled her eyes in disdain, and asked again: "I heard that the princes also came to the banquet, have you met? How do you look?"

"That's it." Yinhua said with some guilt, she was embarrassed to tell Zhuhua because she was too nervous, she didn't dare to look at their faces, but thought their shoes were pretty.

Yinhua looks very fierce on her own one-acre three-point land, but in fact she is just a showman, at most it can scare people once or twice.It's ridiculous that there are still people outside who say that she has no eyesight and is hot. It is obvious that she just puts on airs and pretends to be noble every time she goes out. Where does the hotness come from?

Jin Hua was also listening at the side, seeing that they had nothing new to talk about, she said: "The matter of appreciating the banquet is over, don't forget about it, just stay at home and wait for the marriage to be settled. "

Hearing Jinhua talk about her marriage, Yinhua was still a bit shy, but Zhuhua teased: "When the second sister is engaged, the eldest sister should get married, right?"

"Yes, when your second sister is about to get married, you will almost be engaged." Jin Hua said without changing her expression.

"I don't think it's that fast, I'm picking it up." Zhuhua raised her eyebrows.

"Not shy."

"What's there to be ashamed of?" Zhuhua smiled nonchalantly, then deliberately grabbed Yinhua's sleeve and asked innocently: "My dear sister, what did you think of that made you shy?"

Yinhua was at a loss for words for a moment, and her face turned even redder. This time, Jinhua stood up in good time and left without looking back. She didn't want to be entangled by Zhuhua to ask this.

"Ask Eldest Sister." Yinhua said hastily, she wanted to ask Jinhua for help but she had already disappeared.

"No, I'm in love with Second Sister, so I'll just ask Second Sister." Zhuhua lingered on Yinhua relentlessly, and smiled at her innocently.

"Don't make trouble, you are already eleven, and you are also a big girl..."

"Then, what will happen when I become a big girl? Will there be anything more?" Zhuhua continued to ask, her eyes fixed on her chest, she knew that Yinhua's body had changed, and she had her period not long ago.

"Ask your mother!"

"Mother is busy carrying intestines. Good sister, just tell me~"

"You moron, don't do this." Yinhua finally pulled Zhuhua's head away, rushed to the door, straightened her clothes, pointed at her a few times, and said bitterly: "Your rules are not good. I learned it in the dog's stomach, believe it or not, I will tell my mother."

"You go, I just ask if I don't understand, what's wrong?"

Naturally, Yinhua couldn't complain, so she could only stomp her feet angrily. Just as Qinglan brought someone over with tea, Yinhua pulled her over and said, "Auntie, Mother Wang is not here, and you are the only one who can control Azhu."

"What's wrong?" Qing Lan asked in confusion.

"Yeah, what's the matter?" Zhuhua pouted innocently.

"You..." Yinhua glared at her, "Aunt Qinglan should ask her carefully!"

Without waiting for Qinglan to reply, Yinhua walked away quickly, Zhuhua looked at it amusedly, and met Qinglan's puzzled eyes.

"Auntie, what delicious food did you make again?"

"I heard that the lady's voice was a little hoarse in the morning, so I made pear soup."

"Is my voice hoarse?" Zhuhua coughed a few times, tried her voice a few more times, but she was still a little hoarse, "Be careful at night, don't catch the cold again."

"It's good that the girl knows."

Zhuhua has always been sick these years, which made her, who was acting as a nun, worried. If word of her daughter's poor health spread, no one would dare to come to propose marriage.Only Zhuhua and Mrs. Sun in the mansion knew what the white-clothed monk said. After all, it sounds like Zhuhua and the emperor's aura are in conflict.Fortunately, it is not uncommon for young children to get sick all the time. After all, Zhuhua suffered from hardships when she was a child, so it is normal for her to be weak.

Among the three young ladies, Zhuhua was the youngest at the beginning, and it was best to be eager to learn when she was kissing her, so Qinglan took care of her more attentively.She has seen a lot of laughter among sisters over the years, and there is no time when Zhuhua suffers, and besides, the three young ladies are all born of the same mother, even if they suffer, it will not hurt the sisterhood.She probably guessed that the three sisters could chat these days. It was nothing more than the marriages of the princes. Now Chang'an City is talking about these things, and it will probably be lively for a while.

The four princes got engaged together, which really aroused everyone's curiosity. These young ladies were also thoroughly discussed by everyone. Which one is good-natured, who is knowledgeable, and who is the most beautiful... When this wave of craze has just passed, the four The wedding dates of the two princes were also set in turn.Compared with ordinary families in Chang'an City, princes get married earlier, usually at the age of fifteen or sixteen, and after they get married, they will live in the palace outside.So after the wedding date was confirmed, the palaces where the four princes would live in the future were also granted. They were all located very close to the palace city. Repair it.

In order not to delay the wedding, these few palaces with little difference were given to the four princes in turn according to the old and new procedures. The Ministry of Industry also selected some of the people who built the streets in Chang'an City to help the princes build the palace first.The titles of the four princes were also determined, the fourth prince Yang Fangbo was named King of Chu, the fifth prince Yang Fangzhao was named King Jiang, the sixth prince Yang Fangxun was named King Ji, and the seventh prince Yang Fangan was named King Ping.

Taking Suzaku Avenue as the center line, the palaces of the fourth prince, fifth prince, and the second prince Huo Wang Yang Fanghou, who left the palace early to build a mansion, are on the east side of Zhuque Avenue, while the palaces of the sixth and seventh princes are on the west side of Zhuque Avenue, and they are next to each other.The two grew up together and had a deep relationship. They were naturally happy that the palace was next to each other, but the Seventh Prince's palace was a bit smaller and older, and bones were cleaned out of it during the repairs.

So it didn't take long for rumors about the haunted mansion of Prince Ping to spread in Chang'an City. Everyone said that the emperor didn't like King Ping and gave him such a mansion.

"Let's see how arrogant Shen Caishu is~" Yinhua covered her mouth and laughed.

A few days ago, she went to a banquet and met Shen Caishu. Normally, the ladies who had already engaged would try not to go out, at least they would not come to this kind of banquet specially set up for unengaged girls, but Shen Caishu has been out of town for these years and did not attend After the banquet in Beijing, she clamored to ask her aunt to bring her to see and see, and enjoy the envy and hatred of the young ladies by the way.Although she is the seventh prince who is not very favored, she is still a prince, and she will soon be the seventh prince's concubine.

Seeing Yinhua at the banquet, she had to slap a few words. Seeing Yinhua's status as a concubine, it was not easy to talk back to her, otherwise Shen Caishu's stupid mouth could speak against her.She is holding her breath these days, but she doesn't want to hear such news, hum, so what if she becomes a concubine, whether she will be able to live a peaceful life in the future is not certain~
Zhuhua has heard about the dirty relationship between Yinhua and Shen Caishu, and she has always been unbiased in this kind of conflict where neither victory nor defeat is important, and sometimes she even jokes about Yinhua.

"It's just a house where someone died, so it's nothing."

"What do you know, that house must be haunted."

"Really? If so, our house must be haunted. I heard that many people died in this house before we moved in." Zhuhua nonsense said, which house has never died, if there is one death As for being haunted, Taoist priests have to be busy.

"Nonsense." Yinhua said with a pale face.

"Why are you talking nonsense? If you don't believe me, go ask about it." Zhuhua said with a determined face, but said nonchalantly, "What are you afraid of? Isn't it good that we have lived here for a few years?"

"Yes..." Yinhua nodded vaguely.

Zhuhua suppressed a smile, and deliberately said: "But, maybe there is. In July last year, I suddenly heard someone knocking on the door outside the window, and I asked Qiuyun to open the door. There was no one outside, and no one was walking around." You know the night is so quiet, if someone is walking around, you can definitely hear it, and then Xiaohua doesn’t know what’s going on, so she starts yelling into the room. By the way, you come to complain the next day that Xiaohua is too noisy at night .”

"Yes... is it?"

Yinhua seemed to remember such a thing, Xiaohua would suddenly bark a few times at night, she had complained to Zhuhua several times about it, Zhuhua always said it was because of bugs or birds and bats, now that she thought about it carefully, it might be possible It's because of something else.She heard from an old man in the village that dogs can see things that humans cannot.

"Sister..." Zhuhua lowered her voice and put her hand on Yinhua's.

"Ah! Ah? What's the matter?" Yinhua was startled, and almost didn't cry out.

"It's nothing, I just want to ask if the Prince Ping's Mansion invites Taoist priests? Generally, if you live in this kind of house, you still need to find a Taoist priest to come and take a look."

"Yes, Taoist." Yinhua nodded in agreement, then asked suddenly, "Did any Taoist visit this house before we moved in?"

"Do you think our father will think of hiring Taoist priests?"

"will not."

"Why don't you ask the senior management, maybe he knows."

"Okay, I'll ask." Yinhua immediately stood up and hurried away, without noticing Zhuhua snickering behind her.

It is estimated that she got a negative answer from the senior executives. In the next few days, Yinhua didn't sleep well, and she always felt that there was someone outside the door.Zhuhua found out that she was frightened, so she found a wooden plaque carved with a Buddha statue from her private collection, and went to Yinhua.

"Sister, I asked for this from the temple before. I have kept it under my pillow all these years. I heard that you didn't sleep well. Do you want to try it?"

"Yes." Yinhua took the wooden amulet and excitedly held Zhuhua's hand and said, "Good sister, you are my real sister."

Zhuhua laughed a little guilty, and said, "I'm not your real sister..."

The wooden amulet really worked that night, Yinhua slept until dawn, and didn't have any more nightmares for the next few days.But Zhuhua fell ill again a few days later, which made Yinhua feel even more guilty.

"Azhu, is it because you gave me the amulet that you got sick?"

"No." Zhuhua said firmly.

She bought that piece of amulet from a small stall outside the temple when she and Mrs. Sun went to burn incense in the temple. If Yinhua looked carefully, she would find that the expression of the Buddha statue on the amulet was a bit funny and not too solemn, so Zhuhua also I just bought it, and after buying it, I can put it in a box specially placed for the cheap things she bought from a small stall. This can be regarded as her future dowry, and it can be passed on to future generations to play or as a gift for children. It’s not worth giving it anyway. I don't feel bad anymore.

Seeing that Yinhua's expression was still a bit heavy, she deliberately comforted her: "Sister, don't worry, I still have a lot of peace talismans from the temple."

"Really?" Yinhua was relieved immediately, and asked: "Do you have any more? Give me one."

You are really my own sister, Zhuhua slandered, so I gave her a peace talisman.

A day later, she recovered from her illness, and there were more rumors about the Seventh Prince's Palace.

These irrelevant people just watched the fun from the sidelines, but they didn't know that the future mistress of Prince Ping's Mansion was really anxious to get angry.A few days ago, Shen Caishu was still complacent about being a princess, even though King Ping was lonely and unfavored in the palace, and the status of birth mother was the lowest among the adult princes, but she couldn't resist her good looks.King Ping and King Ji grew up together, and they have a deep relationship. King Ji likes to have fun, but he is not aggressive but is favored by the emperor. If King Ji can win over King Ji through King Ping, it will be beneficial to Shen Mansion.

Just thinking of King Ji's high-spirited appearance, and thinking of King Ping with a cowardly face, Shen Caishu felt a little unwilling. Since she wanted to win over her, why didn't she just point her out to King Ji? If she didn't make a move, the four concubines would enter the door almost at the same time in the future, wouldn't she be overwhelmed by them everywhere.That's all, even Prince Ping's mansion is more dilapidated than other mansions, and even haunted, how can we live here?She thought it was because someone was jealous, so she spread the rumor on purpose, but after she went to walk around the Prince Ping Mansion, she realized that it was really gloomy, and there were crows hovering around, which was scary to watch.Is she really going to risk her life for an unfavored prince?
Here, Shen Caishu doesn't like King Ping, but she doesn't know that Concubine Li Shu also doesn't like her. She was not the concubine she chose for King Ping before, but Concubine Shen made a mess and insisted on sending her niece to the palace.Concubine Shen first took a fancy to Prince Ji, and Concubine Shu naturally refused, saying that she had already had a favorite candidate for a daughter-in-law. It is fine to marry Prince Ji, or marry the prince as a side concubine.

There is only one vacancy for the crown prince's side concubine, and before the flower viewing banquet, he told concubine Xian that he had taken a fancy to the daughter of a fourth-rank official and wanted to accept her as a side concubine. Naturally, concubine Xian could not refute the prince's face He gave the position of side concubine to Concubine Shen's niece who had a problem with him.Concubine Shen Gui was very annoyed when she saw that the two of them didn't show face. It was Concubine De who came forward to make peace, and finally allocated Shen Caishu to King Ping.

Concubine Li Shu naturally knew what Concubine Shen Gui was up to.Now the four concubines in the palace are said to be in charge of the palace affairs together, but Concubine Shen is the respected one.Concubine Xu De has always been on good terms with Concubine Shen Gui, and the two always think about things together.Concubine Chen Xian and Concubine Li Shu didn't like to be with them. The fourth prince Yang Fangbo from Concubine Chen Xian was weak and sick, and the sixth prince Yang Fangxun from Concubine Li Shu had no ambitions and only liked to have fun; Respect, I don't want to be involved in Concubine Shen's plan.Even if Concubine Shen's niece married Prince Ping, who was raised by Concubine Li Shu, she was not a beautiful woman, and she could lose her family and life for her?

"It's said that my niece, Aunt Xiao, is not as easy to get along with as the one in the Shen family that I want to come to, but since the emperor's decree of marriage has been made, this marriage will be impossible. You will be more stubborn in the future, Don't let Shen's daughter climb on your head!" Concubine Li Shu said to King Ping when King Ping and King Ji came to pay their respects.

Even though it was not her own, Prince Ping was also watched by her as she grew up. When she thought of the child she raised being overwhelmed by Concubine Shen's niece, she couldn't bear it.Concubine Li Shu recently worried that he would be led by the nose by Shen Caishu in the future. He has always been well-behaved and sensible, even a little cowardly, but he looks somewhat similar to his short-lived mother.But his biological mother was not cowardly, otherwise how dare she climb into the bed of the emperor while he was drunk?After thinking about it, her concern for King Ping was reduced by another point.

"Tell me about the rumors that your palace is haunted. Did someone spread it on purpose?"

"No." King Ping said with his head down.

"Speak well, straighten your waist, you are about to get married, and you are still submissive!"

"Yes." King Ping straightened his back, but his head was still hanging down.

Concubine Li Shu frowned, turned her head to look at her own son King Ji who was looking at the roof, thought carefully, and said, "Ah Xun, you must not have provoked this matter, right?"

King Ji's neck stiffened, he looked at Concubine Li Shu slowly, and then approached her with a smile on his face: "Concubine Mother is so smart, I can't hide anything from you..."

"Come on, what's going on!" Concubine Li Shu pushed him away and asked angrily.

"Didn't the seventh brother's house unearth the bones? The boy wanted to find out who did it, so he wanted to use the ghost to trick him out..."

"You..." Concubine Li Shu didn't know what to say to him.

"Mother and Concubine, you always say that I don't do business, and only spend money recklessly. This time, it's rare for me to do business, why are you still angry?"

"I'm not angry~" Concubine Li Shu pulled out a smile, and asked helplessly: "Where is the person, have you caught it?"

"Not yet, how could it be so fast. Don't worry, mother concubine, when someone catches him, the rumors about Prince Ping's mansion will naturally be broken. When the seventh brother moves over, the minister will send a big gift to compensate the seventh brother."

"No need to spend money." King Ping said quickly.

"I want what I want, anyway, what I use is the things of my concubine." Ji Wang said with a smile.

Concubine Li Shu rolled her eyes at him, waved her hand and said, "Go, go and play outside the palace, don't try to plot my private treasury, I want to keep it for your sister."

"Father and mother concubine are biased towards the younger sister, alas, I only hate that the minister is not a daughter..."

Concubine Li Shu was so angry that she wanted to talk about him again, when she heard the voice of Princess Changle Yang Fangyi outside.

"Brother, you are talking nonsense to the mother and concubine again." Princess Changle brought the maids into the house. After seeing the ceremony one by one, she snorted at her royal brother, and then smiled and asked the close maid to do the morning meal by herself. The dim sum was presented.

"I heard that my mother's concubine has a bad appetite recently, and my son just happened to get a new dim sum recipe, and specially made it for my concubine to try."

Princess Changle is eleven years old, with exquisite and pleasant features, quite similar to Concubine Li Shu, except that there is an emperor's grandeur between her eyes and eyebrows.

"After all, a daughter is caring, and having a son will irritate people." Concubine Li Shu sighed, and beckoned to pull Princess Changle to her side, "It's not a day or two for the concubine mother to have a bad appetite, so you still remember..."

As she spoke, she wiped away her tears with a handkerchief, but unfortunately, King Ji was not moved at all, and said, "That's right, my concubine is picky, and grandma also said that this problem is from being used to it since childhood. After all, I let you She has improved a bit, sister, you are here to add to the chaos..."

"You~" Concubine Li Shu grabbed the cup on the table as if to throw it.

"Brother, let's go out of the palace to play, don't be angry here." Princess Changle quickly stopped Concubine Li Shu, and looked at Prince Ji helplessly.

"Let's go, I know that you mother and daughter love each other deeply, and you don't want to see me as a man, and only the seventh brother treats me well." He pulled King Ping up, saluted upwards and said, "We are not here to be an eyesore, let's go now." Don't miss me, mother and concubine don't rush to look for me again in the evening."

Concubine Li Shu waved her hand impatiently: "Let's go, An, watch him."

"Yes." King Ping replied quickly, and was dragged away by King Ji after a hasty salute.

Concubine Li Shu pressed her temples, turning grief and anger into appetite and complaining while eating the snacks made by Princess Changle.Princess Changle said a few words of persuasion, and then said with a smile: "It's also thanks to Brother Qi's good temper, he didn't run away in anger."

"Too soft-tempered may not be good." Concubine Li Shu sighed.

"If the future Seventh Sister-in-law has a better character, Seventh Brother will give in as well."

Concubine Li Shu glanced at her daughter, wiped her forehead hair lovingly, smiled and said nothing.
