Chapter 429: Fright in the Rain(1/2)

As Zhao Zhen and Xiao Sizi chatted, they told the secret of that year. Qi Ge's death was more or less related to Zhao Zhen. Zhao Zhen missed a date with Qi Ge again because of Concubine Pang, so Qi Ge has become a ghost and is now in trouble for Xiangxiang, which makes sense.

Of course, this makes sense based on the premise that there is a real ghost.

At this time, dark clouds were covered with thunder, and raindrops as big as beans were crackling down.

Everyone sat in the pavilion in the garden, continuing the topic just now.

Zhan Zhao asked Zhao Zhen, "Did the emperor know what Qige wanted to say back then?"

Zhao Zhen shook his head in embarrassment, "I really don't know. If there are any signs, I won't delay the trouble because of listening to the piano. In fact, I thought it was because of Uncle Ninth at that time."

Zhan Zhao was curious, "What does it have to do with Zhao Pu?"

"Uncle Jiu was going to go to the border back then." Zhao Zhen said, "Qige wanted to follow him, so he told me several times."

Zhan Zhaohe Bai Yutang raised his eyebrows.

"You also know that Uncle Jiu went to the border to fight, so how can it be to bring a maid around? Besides, he is a rough man, and he will not take a maid to death." Zhao Zhen was helpless, "Many people have advised Qi Ge, but she was rude."

Hearing this, Bai Yutang suddenly asked, "She is so obsessed with Zhao Pu. Even if she really resurrects her soul, she should go to Zhao Pu."

Zhan Zhao nodded while touching his chin - it makes sense.

The little fourth son became nervous, "Is Guigui looking for Jiujiu? Is Jiujiu dangerous?"

Zhao Zhen gently patted Xiao Sizi's head, indicating that he didn't have to be nervous, and said to Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang, "I just talked to Uncle Jiu. He has not been harassed by any ghosts or gods in recent years. He has been harassed by others. As for now, haven't I driven him out? It's not safe to stay in the palace. The concubine went to Kaifeng Mansion for this purpose. Bao Qing is in charge in Kaifeng Mansion, and ghosts are hard to get close to."

"Actually, what I'm most curious about is." Zhan Zhao asked with interest, "How did Qige's ghost scare Zhao Pu back then?"

Bai Yutang also nodded, "With Zhao Pu's personality, even if he was only a teenager back then, he wouldn't be afraid of a ghost with green face and fangs standing in front of him, let alone someone he knew..."

Zhan Zhao nodded.

The little Sizi also nodded, "Jiujiu is so brave. Only Dad is the only one who is braver than him."

Zhao Zhen subconsciously glanced at Xiao Sizi and asked, "Your father is just a scholar, are you so brave?"

"That's right." Xiao Sizi nodded, "Dad said, don't do it as soon as possible if you are timid."

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang were ashamed of the doctors in the world... Not everyone is as tough as Gongsun.

"Actually, I was very curious at that time and asked Uncle Jiu." Zhao Zhen said, "It was him passing by Furong Garden that day and said he suddenly heard some sounds, as if something was behind him."

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang looked at each other - this is a bit bizarre. Although Zhao Pu was still young at that time, his kung fu should be very good. Who has such great ability to appear by his side without him discovering it at all? Could it be that he has the skills of the Heavenly Lord Yin Hou?

"Uncle Jiu said he looked back and saw no one, and turned around and there was a woman in red in front of him." Zhao Zhen continued, "He said that the woman's face was no longer shy, but he recognized it as Qige."

"Qige can't do martial arts, right?" Zhan Zhao asked.

Zhao Zhen laughed, "Of course not..."

Bai Yutang also frowned - how can he get close to him silently without hesitation?

"Uncle Jiu is puzzled because the other party stood in front of him, but he had no breath of living." Zhao Zhen recalled Zhao Pu's description, "He said he felt like a zombie standing in front of him, his eyes were close to grayish white, and his black mouth seemed to bite people. But he ran very quickly and moved quickly, not like a light skills, but like a puppet that was pulled by something... Uncle Jiu kicked over two walls when he grabbed her, and then the movement led the guards over."

Zhao Zhen said, asking Nangong, who was standing quietly beside him, "You later asked the guards about the matter and told me."

Nangong nodded and said to Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang, "I asked the guards who arrived first. They also said that they saw a woman with a red dress with a pale face like a zombie and a black lips retracted into the crack of the wall like a shrinking bone. Then the Ninth Prince kicked over the wall, but they couldn't find the female ghost."

"Indented into the crack in the wall?" Bai Yutang asked again.

Nangong nodded.

Zhan Zhao touched his chin—even if he let Tianzun and his grandfather come, it would be impossible to retract into the crack of the wall. What kind of kung fu is this?"

"Several guards were frightened at that time." Nangong said, "But Furong Garden is near the Sihai Palace, and there are many accidents in normal times, so it's probably no wonder."

"The structure of this house is against Feng Shui, with a strange trend and no sunshine all year round." Bai Yutang said, "There are methods of creating yin houses everywhere. Why is there such a house in the palace?"

Zhan Zhao also sees Zhao Zhen.

Zhao Zhen said, "Oh... the first purpose of this house was built because of the theory of ghosts and gods."

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang looked at each other.

"According to legend, the Sihai Ghost Hall was built during the Guangshun period, some said it was built during the Xiande period, some said it was built by Guo Wei, some said it was Chai Rong... Of course, some said it was built by Taizu..."

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang twitched the corners of his mouth, looking at Zhao Zhen, and that was the meaning - is there any accurate?

Zhao Zhen scratched his head, "I don't know very well. I didn't live in the palace for a long time when I was a child. Not many people knew about the past."

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang were not confused. Who made it? The key is what he used for when he made it.

"This Four Seas Palace is used to complete the ghost marriage." Zhao Zhen replied, "The prince died young in the palace from time to time. Unmarried people must have ghost marriage, otherwise it is said that it will cause disaster to future generations."

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang were both stunned, "Dark marriage?"

"Oh!" Xiao Sizi clapped his hands, "I've seen a ghost marriage!"

Zhao Zhen looked at him, "Is there a lot of people?"

"Yeah." Xiao Sizi nodded, "In the past, the son of a rich family in the village died. He believed that a blind fortune teller had to marry a 16-year-old beautiful girl to go home for the ghost marriage. A family owed them money, so the daughter was used to pay off the debt. When other people entered the sedan chair, they were all happy. The bride was crying so badly. Later, my father pretended to tell fortunes and deceived them, saying that the ghost marriage would be dead to the dead, otherwise it would be unlucky, so they let the bride go. But it was not so easy to replace the dead, so my father finally got them a paper man."

Zhao Zhen raised his eyebrows, "Mr. Gongsun is smart."

The little Sizi smiled, "That's it, but later the bride wanted to marry her father, and then her father had to take me out to buy medicine to avoid the limelight, and then she met Zhan Zhan and others..."

Everyone was amused and crying. It turned out that such a thing was there. I really have to thank that girl.

Zhao Zhen made Xiao Sizi laugh for a while, and then told Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang, "The ghost marriage in the palace has gradually evolved. At the beginning, it was said that it was very cruel. They were buried with burials. Later, they were gradually replaced by living people, just keeping a living widow. In the end, there seemed to be a dead person. However, the dead were placed for too long, and the epidemic spread, so they continued to change the living people to be widowed. After decades, the building was gloomy and terrifying. Those who were matched with ghost marriage were all young and beautiful girls. When they entered, they were either scared to death or scared to death, hanged themselves, jumped into the well, and took poison. There were countless people."

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang frowned and never separated. He thought to himself, no wonder these generations of imperial clans were all small, and their harems were chaotic and their lives were short. It was simply a fault for their own fault after committing evil.

"Later, as the Sihai Palace became more and more evil, the system of ghost marriage was finally abolished." Zhao Zhen sighed with his chin holding his handrail, "After the Sihai Palace was sealed, there were fewer accidents. After Furong Garden was surrounded, it was completely purified. Occasionally, there were no big deal."

"Sihai Palace and Furong Garden are really haunted?" Zhan Zhao was curious.

Zhao Zhen looked at Eunuch Chen who came over with refreshments and signaled him to say something.

Eunuch Chen sighed, "I have been in the palace for decades, and the haunted things of Sihai Palace and Furong Garden happen from time to time. The maids and guards encounter the most.

"Have you ever met my father-in-law?" Zhan Zhao was curious.

Eunuch Chen nodded, "Yes!"

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang both seemed to be interested.

Eunuch Chen said, "I met him not long after I entered the palace when I was a child. Just near Furong Garden, there was a woman in white clothes wandering. I only saw a back but not a face. The woman's neck was getting older and there was a white lingzi around her neck."

Zhan Zhaohe Bai Yutang frowned - is it true or false?

Zhan Zhao looked at Nangong Ji again, "You can't have encountered it, right?"

Nangong was very calm, "There have been many guards in the palace, but I have never encountered them myself, but there are shadow guards who see ghost fires while watching the night, and the most common ones are seeing lanterns floating in Furong Garden. In addition...there are guards who see strange shadows on the wall."

Zhan Zhao was so funny in his heart - it turns out that this palace is so exciting.

Bai Yutang couldn't help but ask Zhan Zhao, "Is there any Kaifeng Mansion?"

Zhan Zhao did not answer, and Eunuch Chen, who came to serve the tea to the two of them, smiled, "Oh, Young Master Bai, with Lord Bao here, can there be ghosts in Kaifeng Mansion?"

The little fourth son asked Zhao Zhen curiously, "Have you ever met Emperor?"

Zhao Zhen asked with a smile, "You're talking about ghosts?"

Xiao Sizi nodded and nodded.

Zhao Zhen smiled helplessly, "Luckily, it would be miserable."

The little Sizi smiled, "Is the emperor as brave as the little Sizi?"

Zhao Zhen smiled bitterly, "I am not very brave, but I can't admit it! I have to hold on if I'm scared! I must not scream out."

Xiao Sizi blinked, "Why should I hold on? Calling out is better for my health. Dad said, it was scared to hold it in a bad way for my health."

Zhao Zhen nodded, "But I am the emperor. Once the emperor is scared by a ghost and says it out, it will be miserable, so I have to hold on!"

The little Sizi looked at Zhao Zhen sympathetically, and finally reached out and patted Zhao Zhen on the shoulder, "The Emperor is the worst."

Zhao Zhen nodded with relief, "Yes! Do you think so too?"

The little Sizi nodded seriously, "Well! The Emperor does what he doesn't like, and then everyone can do what he likes to do, so the Emperor is the loneliest, and no one is willing to be friends with you yet. Everyone is free to play outside, and the Emperor is locked up in the palace. How boring, I will suffer a loss in this life! I can't go to Taibaiju for dinner, and the dishes in the imperial kitchen are half cold when they are taken to the table."

Zhao Zhen stared at Xiao Sizi for a long time, then hugged her, "You are the most caring, they all bully me!"

The little Sizi continued to sympathize with Zhao Zhen, "Next time we bring hot pot to the palace to eat? The seafood sent from Bai Bai's house is so fresh."

"Yeah!" Zhao Zhen hugged Xiao Sizi with satisfaction, "I will accept your godson! I won't return it to Mr. Gongsun."

The little fourth son poked Zhao Zhen, "I'm a bad person, I'm Jiujiu's godson."

"Then let's be brothers!" Zhao Zhen was rarely serious. Eunuch Chen shook his head helplessly, and the emperor could only tease Xiao Sizi.

Just then, several maids came over with Qinglian.

Qinglian's face improved a lot now and changed into dry clothes. The empress dowager just now knew that she was scared and pulled her to comfort her.

Zhao Zhen asked her very gently about her situation and the maid accompanied her and said that the imperial physician had seen it, and she was a little scared when she was fine.

"What did you scare?" Zhao Zhen asked.

Qinglian said, "Report to the emperor, I just made some tender buds of camphor trees near Qingyuan, and prepared to make incense for the empress dowager. Suddenly I heard someone calling me, it was a woman's voice, and I turned around and didn't see anyone. At first, I thought I had heard it wrong, so I didn't care too much, so I continued to walk in and beat camphor leaves, and then I heard someone calling me again... When I turned around, I found that there was no one outside the four outside, and I was the only one in Qingyuan, so I was a little scared and took my bag.

Zi walked out. After walking a few steps, he suddenly heard someone calling me behind him, and something touched my shoulder... I heard from the old mothers in the palace that there was a ghost behind him, and it was difficult to turn around. If the yang fire on his shoulder was blown out, it would be entangled by the ghost, so I ran away. When I turned around the yard, I turned around and saw a lantern floating behind him. I was so scared that I couldn't even care about the bag. I rushed out and couldn't stop and fell into the river."
To be continued...
