The Wife of a Ghost - C309
Actually, right now, I should take this opportunity to leave this place, or continue deeper into the camp. Find Zisang Chi, ask him where my parents are, and then save the two of them. But it was as if I had just run into a bridgehead outside the woods. I knew all the facts in my head, but I was completely at my wits’ end. By the time I had recovered, I was already at the northern end of the jungle.
In front of him was a huge white tent, four guards, two of them patrolling around the tent while the other two stayed by the door.
With Han Shan being assigned by the teenager, I didn’t intentionally hide my aura, pressing my spirit energy down to the level a guard should have, and then taking the initiative to approach one of the patrolling soldiers, “Report.”
The patrol stopped and looked at me. “What is it?”
I took a glance at the big tent and said: “General Han Shan will pass the password to First Miss.”
The moment the patrolman heard the word “miss,” his expression turned grave. He checked that I was unarmed, then led me to a small tent next to the big tent. Unsurprisingly, the only one who could afford to be addressed as young miss was Zi Sang Yu. She was leaning on the couch when I came in, holding a small butterfly glass in her hand. She was drunk, her eyes were blurred, and her cheeks were a pale pink.
The patrolling soldier bowed towards Sang Yu and reported, “First Miss, General Han Shan has sent a message.”
Zi Sang Yu glanced at me, but didn’t say anything. He lazily waved his hand, approving that I could speak now. I hurried forward respectfully. Originally, the soldier who sent the order should have kneeled down to pass the password to the other party. This wasn’t only to show respect and recognition to the general before me, but also to let him know that I wasn’t a sharp person. After kneeling down, no matter what hidden weapon I use, I wouldn’t be able to harm him.
However, even with my current identity, I still don’t want to kneel to my son, Sang Yu.
Ignoring the warning looks from the patrolling soldiers flying towards me, I stood up straight and said to Sang Yu, “Speak to General Han Shan, if Miss has free time, I hope to meet him at the southern end. General Han Shan will definitely treat her with good wine.”
Zi Sang Yu’s gaze towards me suddenly changed. Barefoot, he got off the couch. Her account was more of a palace than a military tent. From the door to the bed, there was a huge blanket, and on both sides of the door, there were two men holding a fan. On the bed, there were several people.
If I was really a man, perhaps I really wouldn’t be able to hold it back. No wonder Qiao Ji always had to eat the old jealousy of Zang Yu, who was really good-looking when she wasn’t acting so arrogantly and domineeringly.
She scraped her glass under my chin. “Look up.”
I slightly frowned and raised my head to meet her gaze. “Eldest Miss.”
The corner of Zi Sang Yu’s mouth raised slightly, and a rarely seen shallow smile appeared on his face that was seventy percent similar to Zisang Ming’s. A small dimple of pear fell on his right cheek, “You came to pass on a message for Han Shan? Does he like me? ”
How do I know if he likes you? Although Han Shan looks like a young innocent person, his thoughts definitely aren’t that simple. How can he let me see through you so easily?” Only, although I don’t know if Han Shan likes you, I faintly feel that you should like Han Shan. Otherwise, why would a high and mighty princess like you ask a soldier such a straightforward question, and even hadn’t held me accountable for passing down a general order yet I didn’t pay my respects?
But then again, you, a princess, actually likes a ghost that climbs through the most dangerous places, which is a little out of my expectations. Of course, this did not mean that Zi Sang Yu would not stay in the Hades’ Hall for long, and would be lured away by Han Shan.
Seeing that I pursed my lips and didn’t reply for a long time, Zi Sangyu helplessly shook his head and turned around to raise his glass. “Forget it, asking you is futile. Why would he tell you that kind of thing? He has so many things on his mind, why would he think about me?”
“No!” I interrupted Zi Sang Yu’s self-talk.
I am also a woman. Although I don’t know what Han Shan is thinking, I do know what is on Zi Sang Yu’s mind the most right now. Furthermore, I feel that we should make appropriate use of the relationship between Sang Yu and Han Shan to obtain some information regarding that Empress. When I thought of this, I was shocked by my own actions. Didn’t I always want to save my parents’ souls? Why is my focus now shifted to this place!?
Zi Sang Yu turned around. The stiff smile on his face was already a bit unrecognizable. “What’s not what?” he asked me. Is there anything else he wants you to bring to me? ”
I lowered my head and replied, “It’s not that General Han Shan didn’t think about Eldest Miss, but General Han Shan sent us here today because he has been missing us for a long time.”
Zi Sang Yu’s eyes lit up, and he grabbed me by the collar. “Really? Is that true? ”
I don’t know if that’s true or not, but it’s true that I’m about to be strangled to death by you.
I struggled to free myself from her grasp after a long while. I took a few steps back and almost fell out of the tent before grabbing onto a staff by the door to stabilize myself. I breathed heavily as I nodded to Zi Sang Yu.
Zi Sang Yu smiled, and like the young girls in all the portraits who were pushed against the wall by their own Prince Charming, his face reddened and his cheeks bloomed. “I knew he would miss me! “Heh heh, I knew it. Hey, what are you called? It’s a good deed to pass on the message, this princess will reward you handsomely.”
I don’t need any gold, silver, or jewelry to reward you. I still hope to reward you with something else. I turned back to look at the patrolling soldiers and continued to speak to Zi Sang Yu, “Eldest Miss, this message is a duty of this subordinate. This subordinate is ashamed of the reward, General Han Shan also has something else to report to Eldest Miss.”
How could Zi Sang Yu still refuse? He flung out his sleeves and said, “Speak.”
I continued, “General heard that the army of the Underworld has been repeatedly ambushing the camp, in an attempt to take the Empress away. General Han Shan sent me here to take care of First Miss’ worries, and had your subordinate support Big Miss’ guard troops.”
The smile on Zi Sang Yu’s face suddenly froze. “You said that he sent you here to support the guards?”
Her expression changed a little too quickly. To be safe, when I replied, I deliberately thought back to what Han Shan had told me.
He turned around and went back to the bed to pour himself a cup of wine. After a long while, I was still thinking if I had said something wrong, but she finally raised her head and looked at me, and said: “Since Han Shan sent them, I will naturally take good care of them. Right now there are already two patrolling guards, and the guards are also two people.
I was stunned. The entry for ‘Inner Servant’ came a little too suddenly. I didn’t know how to react in that instant.
If it was an ordinary soldier, he would actually be able to serve the Hades’ Hall’s wife in the big tent. It could be considered as a lifetime’s fortune, but to me, this seemed like a huge punishment, and it was a punishment that I found for myself.
Zou Sangyu arranged for the patrolling soldiers to lead me to the entrance of the tent and give me a key. The patrolling soldiers saw that my expression of disdain had completely changed from one of anger to one of disdain. Anyone from the Underworld wouldn’t want to see a beauty that had been hiding in the depths of the Underworld for almost a thousand years.
“Brat, I’m warning you, although this empress is trapped in the tent, she was once a war god. It’s best if you don’t have any bad intentions, or else even if you don’t anger the empress, the enchantment in the tent will still cause your bones to turn into ashes.”
I kept saying yes, but my mind was in a mess.
I have always heard of this Martial Immortal’s fame from other people, and how crazy Zisang Ming was for her back then. Now, he is going to see her face, I don’t know if I should call myself lucky, or if I should just cause trouble for myself.
I took the key and walked toward the front door of the tent, where the two guards stared at me with even more anger than the patrolmen. If it weren’t for the fact that the camp was close by, they would have wanted to drag me into the woods and beat me up. However, although they didn’t fulfill this wish, I didn’t smoothly enter the tent either. Just as my hand lifted the tent flap, I could vaguely see the figure of a lady. Suddenly, the entire camp shook from the loud sound.
Zisang Ming pulled me behind him and pulled me into the air. As the curtains fell, I finally lost touch with the legendary Empress.
Zisang Chi and Zi Sang Yu had already jumped into the air when they heard the noise. Seeing that I was revealing my real body to Zisang Ming, Zi Sang Yu’s expression did not change much, but there was a hint of pity in his eyes, and he coldly looked at me, and said, “In order to save brother, you really can do anything. Let this woman save sister-in-law.”
So she treated me as if I had been sent over by Zisang Ming.
Zisang Ming did not pay attention to what Zi Sang Yu said and lowered his head to look at me. His gaze was ice-cold and filled with anger.
What was he angry about? I’m still here unharmed and unnoticed, why is he angry? Or rather, it is wrong for me to stand here. I should not have appeared by that woman’s side.
What did you listen to me to save my parents? I really think too much of myself. He probably already knew that his wife was taken away so he sent out his troops. As for me, I’m just giving him an excuse in front of everyone.
I gently pushed his arm away and smiled. “I’ve come to save my parents. However, due to curiosity, I came here first. I wanted to see the Empress that you had hidden in the palace for hundreds of years.”
