Rebirth Handbook - Chapter 177
The little princess turned his head and looked around, feeling gloomy inexplicably, and could not help shivering.
The area of Pei’s mansion is not small. It was the residence of a former high official. It was given to Pei Shunqing by the emperor a few years ago. It has a rockery corridor with a view of the south of the Yangtze River. The little princess still felt that the environment here was quiet before, but I don’t know if it was because of that just now, she now feels that this quietness has become cold.
Such a big Pei Mansion, I don’t know why there are very few people coming down. Coming on this road, everywhere is empty like no one, and there are still white lanterns hanging on the corridors on both sides.
“I heard that it didn’t take long for Mrs. Pei’s wife to die…” Suddenly, I don’t know who said this quietly, and the maids who accompanied the little princess suddenly felt a little hairy.
The little princess was even more cold behind her back, and shouted: “Who told you to bring up such a bad thing at this time!” She turned her head to look at the maids behind her, “Who said that!”
The maids, look at me and I look at you. They all said, “The princess, the servants did not say.”
The little princess felt that they were not telling the truth, and asked with a calm face: “It must be you who said it, otherwise it can still be a ghost!”
A maid bit her scalp and said, “The slave and maid just listened, and the voice seemed to be coming from behind the slave.”
The maid behind her waved her hands repeatedly, “It’s not a slave, it’s from behind the slave!” She turned to look, and there was no one behind her. She suddenly panicked, crying in her voice, “The princess, really is not a servant!”
After she finished speaking, she suddenly thought of something, and quickly added: “The slave and maidservant remembered the voice just now. It seemed strange, not a few slaves.”
The little princess looked at the corridor and swallowed. She thought about it carefully now, and felt that the faint voice just now seemed unfamiliar. A few people were startled by the mad woman just now, and they couldn’t get back to their senses along the way. When they heard that voice just now, they didn’t notice anything wrong for a while.
The maids looked at each other, not knowing what to say. At this time, a gust of wind blew from the flower window of the corridor, shaking the white lanterns hanging on the side of the corridor, and the bamboo on the side also shook. A cool air followed the wind, and the sound of the wind passed through the flower wall next to the corridor, making a whining sound like a woman’s cry.
The little princess stood at the forefront. She turned around to face the maids. Suddenly, she saw a white figure floating past the end of the corridor. The figure turned his head and showed her a pale and fuzzy face.
The little princess couldn’t help letting out a scream anymore, turned and ran forward holding the skirt. The maids didn’t know what the little princess saw, they called to the princess, and hurriedly followed.
When they all left, on the other side of the window in the quiet corridor, the butler squatting down with a xun beckoned to the two young men, “Okay, you go down.” The two young men stood up from under the window. Carrying the big fan and carrying the ice cubes, he left.
At this moment, the little princess didn’t think of any beautiful men anymore, she wanted to see her dad as soon as possible and not to stay in this gloomy courtyard.
She ran so fast because of fear, and the maids were panting. Just before reaching the living room, turning a corner, the little princess bumped into a maid. The maid couldn’t dodge, and the bowl of medicine she was holding in her hand splashed all over the princess’s chest, soaking the little princess’s chest in an instant.
Today the little princess wears something light and thin, not even afraid of cold, just to make himself look more attractive. But at this moment, her chest was drenched and chilly, and there was an unpleasant medicinal smell rushing upwards. She was short of breath and raised her foot and kicked the reckless maid.
“Have you gotten your eyes? Haven’t you seen this princess! It smells so bad!”
The white-clothed maid who was knocked to the ground lowered her head and said, “The princess forgives the sin, but the servants and servants did not see the princess coming.”
The maidservants of the little princess chased up, and when they saw the little princess look like this, they were all anxious. A slightly older maid said, “The princess can’t go out like this.” She turned to look at the white maid who was kneeling aside, and said : “Are there any clothes in your mansion that the princess can change into?”
The maid in white said: “Yes, please come to the princess and the servants.” She said that she got up from the ground and led the princess and his party into a small building not far away.
The decoration in this small building is very elegant, and there is a stove. After entering, the princess looks a little better when he sees the surrounding decorations. The maid in white gave me a set of dresses. The little princess reached out to turn over the dress, and accidentally touched the hand of the maid in white, frowning and asked: “Why is it so cold, don’t touch the princess, put down the clothes, and you go out.” “
The white-robed maid Yiyan put down her clothes and stepped aside and said, “The servant, Baili, is guarding outside. The princess can call Baili if he has something to do.”
The little princess ignored her and let her maid wait on her to change her dirty clothes.
But when she got dressed and went out, there was no one at the door, and the maid who claimed to be Baili disappeared.
“The servants in this mansion are really unruly.” A maid who served the little princess mumbled.
The little princess had a dark face, and this weird and uncomfortable place made her feel angry, “Remember what is the maid’s name, Baili? I will talk to Master Pei later, this maid should be sent away early. Good.”
The master and servants walked back again, this time the little princess dare not run ahead alone, and let a few maids walk around him.
Two maidservants came to face each other. They were talking and laughing at first, but after seeing the little princess and his group, the green-clad maid in front of him suddenly screamed, pointing to the little princess as if he had seen a ghost and said, “Husband, madam? !”
The little princess has been frightened several times, her voice trembling a little, and she cursed: “You bastard, what nonsense!”
The green-robed maid quickly replied: “The little princess’s forgiveness, and the slave had just read it wrong. It’s really because the clothes on the little princess are exactly the same as our wife’s favorite clothes. It’s a little unclear from a distance.”
The little princess felt wrong, she pulled her skirt, “You said this is your wife’s clothes?”
The green girl shook her head quickly, “No, it certainly isn’t. Madam’s clothes have all been burned out, maybe it’s just similar.”
The more you hear her say this, the more the princess feels wrong, “but this clothes was changed over there by the servants of your mansion with the princess.” She pointed to the small building not far away.
The green-clothed maid’s face turned pale suddenly, and she tremblingly said, “Then, over there is the residence of the lady during her lifetime. It has been a long time since there has been no one, no one has gone, so why would anyone take the princess over there? “
The little princess felt terrified. Was there someone who died in that place not long ago? “You, are you lying to this princess!”
“The servant girl dare not deceive the princess.” The green girl said.
The little princess was frightened and angry, “Go and bring a maid named Bai Li from your mansion. The chief of the county asked her why she brought the chief of the county there, and put the chief of the county in dead clothes!”
After hearing this, not only the green-clothed maid, but the maid beside her also trembled. The two looked at each other, and the green-clothed maid replied, “But, the county, the princess, and Baili died ten days ago.”
The little princess suddenly shook her whole body. She remembered the hand that had just touched that Baili, and it was as cold as ice. Is that a ghost?
“Princess!”
“Princess!”
With a few screams, three or four maids hurriedly caught the little princess who fell backward. “Princess, how are you?” “Princess, are you okay?”
The little princess turned black for a while, she felt that everything was wrong, she struggled to stand up, and said: “I want to leave here, go find my father, I want to leave here!”
In the front hall, King Dinghui was talking vaguely to Pei Shunqing about cutting the han. In the past few days, when he entered the palace, he had vaguely heard the rumors of the slashing of the faculty. King Dinghui also had his own calculations. He thought that if Pei Shunqing were to be brought into his camp, it would naturally not be so easy to cut the feudal clan in the future, and he would have to make some arrangements when he went to Beijing in the south.
However, after these words, King Dinghui couldn’t help but blacken his face. This Pei Shunqing didn’t get in. Listening to what he said, he still advocated cutting the feudal clan. Isn’t this against him? Such a person, if his daughter really marries him…
“Father! Daddy, let’s go back quickly!” The little princess ran over at this time, with a small face that was pale with fright, and he was about to go outside while pulling King Dinghui apart.
King Dinghui asked her inexplicably, “What’s the matter, what happened to you, but you were bullied. Tell her father is the master!”
Pei Shunqing also stood up and said in surprise: “What happened to the little princess, why is it so embarrassing?”
The little princess looked at Pei Shunqing, standing at the table with a strange smile. Taking a closer look, the weird smile seemed to be just dazzling, and Pei Shunqing’s expression was very dignified and upright.
Shuffled, the little princess decided that there were ghosts in the house, so he choked on King Dinghui’s sleeve and begged: “Father, father, let’s go back! I don’t want to stay here anymore!”
King Dinghui had no choice but to leave in a hurry with his daughter.
Pei Shunqing drove them all the way to the door, but the etiquette was not at all low. Watching King Dinghui’s carriage leave, Pei Shunqing turned and walked into the mansion. The door of Pei’s mansion was closed, and Pei Shunqing laughed out loud.
“Steward, you have worked hard today, let’s each send one more month of silver.”
Pei Shunqing turned back to the backyard and sat down in front of Ying Xian.
“The matter is resolved?” Ying Xian asked.
“Naturally, I think that little princess will never want to marry me again.” Pei Shunqing replied.
Ying Xian thought for a while, “You did this, didn’t you offend King Dinghui, what should he do if he troubles you?”
Pei Shunqing smiled and shook her head: “Are there few people who have offended me? It’s a good thing that I have sins with King Dinghui.”
“How do you say?” Ying Xian asked, and suddenly realized: “Oh, I know, because King Dinghui is a feudal king?”
Pei Shunqing nodded: “Exactly, the emperor doesn’t want me to really get involved with the king. Don’t worry, the emperor will protect me in this matter.”
Ying Xian sighed and looked at Pei Shunqing’s eyes with pity, “You are really tired to be officials.”
Pei Shunqing sat cross-legged on the couch, and shook her fingers when she heard the words, “Neither, nor, the joy is endless.”
“Okay, you can be happy.” Ying Xian popped a chess piece on the board, “Come with me in the next game.”
