Chapter 392: The Ghost of Concubine Ye
Chapter 392: The Ghost of Concubine Ye
Cining Palace.
"Eat slowly, don't choke."
Anko reminded her in a worried whisper.
Jiuer ate several pieces of snacks before she felt alive again.
"Thank you sister..."
She was a polite person, and this sister saved her life and gave her such delicious snacks.
If it weren't for this sister, she would have probably fainted from hunger by now.
If she fainted, no one would find her here, and it's so cold that she would be frozen to death.
"Be quiet and wait for me here."
Hongdou also felt sorry for the little palace maid. She was still a child, and yet she had to suffer such a hardship.
The Queen Mother is really not a human being.
Hongdou ran to the backyard window again.
She saw her mistress lying in the window crack with great interest, listening to the Queen Mother scolding her.
"My lady, do you have any snacks in your purse? The child is starving."
She asked Huang Ye in a low voice.
Huang Ye nodded, took off her purse and handed it to her, then continued to lie on the window.
Anko shook her head.
She had never seen anyone like her own queen who liked to listen to others scolding her.
Seeing Hongdou coming back, Jiuer, who had recovered a little, used the moonlight to see the appearance of her benefactor clearly.
"Take out your purse and hide these snacks. You can eat them when you are hungry."
Anko instructed her quietly.
"Thank you sister."
Jiuer recognized Hongdou. This sister was the chief maid of Concubine Ye.
She was also present when the Empress Dowager and others wanted to burn Concubine Ye to death in the Cining Palace.
"Don't be so stupid in the future. Just do whatever the Queen Mother says. Don't argue with her, or you will suffer."
Hongdou taught her how to deal with things.
"Thank you for your advice, Jiuer will remember it."
"Then you should go out and pretend now. Anyway, you have already called for help. It is their business whether the imperial physician comes or not."
Jiuer bowed to Hongdou again with gratitude, then went to the gate to call for someone, saying that the Empress Dowager wanted to invite the imperial physician.
Hongdou ran to Huangye again and put her head against the window crack to look inside.
The Queen Mother could no longer bear to watch at this time.
The clothes she was wearing were just hanging on her body for show.
In fact, most of her skin was exposed, and it was covered in blood from her scratches.
"Ye Jieyu, you bitch, you can't let anyone rest in peace even after your death. This is all caused by you, a bitch..."
The Queen Mother was still cursing, but her voice was very low.
Who were Huang Ye and the others? No matter how soft her voice was, they could hear it clearly.
"My lady, the Queen Mother thought you were dead."
Huang Ye nodded.
She wondered if she should go in and meet the Queen Mother, lest she mistakenly thought she was dead.
Just do it.
Huang Ye let her hair down, used it to cover most of her face, then pushed open the window and jumped in.
The inspiration came from the many TV dramas she watched in her previous life.
The Queen Mother felt a cold wind blowing in through the window.
She turned her head and was about to scold Jiuer for not closing the window tightly.
Suddenly, a person with disheveled hair floated in from the window.
The person who floated in had his arms stretched straight forward.
Moreover, the man was not walking, but jumping towards her with a stiff body.
"My Queen Mother, I died so unjustly..."
A shrill sound came out of the man's mouth.
The Queen Mother recognized the voice as that of Concubine Ye.
"Don't come over here... Someone, come quickly, there's a ghost..."
The Queen Mother burst into tears.
Seeing that no one came in, the ghost of Ye Jieyu had already jumped in front of her bed.
The Queen Mother rolled her eyes and fainted.
"It's really scary. I haven't acted enough."
Huang Ye regretfully gathered her hair on the side of her face, revealing her beautiful face like a flower.
Seeing that the Queen Mother had fainted from fright, Hongdou also climbed in through the window and stood with Huang Ye looking at the Queen Mother lying on the bed.
"My lady, why don't you feed her some poison and kill her."
She suggested this to Huang Ye.
"Forget it. After all, she is the emperor's biological mother. The lesson she has been given this time is already severe. It would be bad if someone died."
Huang Ye waved to Jiuer who was huddled at the door, and Jiuer came over obediently.
"Remember to protect yourself in the future. Don't lose your life carelessly. Human life is precious..."
Huang Ye sighed and touched the top of her head.
For such a young child, who is at the bottom of the harem, it is not easy for her to survive.
"Jiu'er, right? If you encounter any difficulties in the future, you can come to Ning Yuxuan to find me. If I can help you, I will definitely help you."
"Thank you, Madam..."
Jiuer's eyes turned red and her tears fell one by one.
"The Queen Mother will wake up soon. Try to stay away from her. You can also pretend to be unconscious. Anyway, you haven't eaten..."
Hongdou gives Jiuer some advice.
"I will tell Xiao Yinzi to fill the Cining Palace with people as soon as possible when I go out. This way, the Queen Mother won't have to worry about you alone."
Huang Ye handed Jiuer a small porcelain bottle.
"Here are pills for replenishing qi and blood. Take one every day. We are leaving..."
Jiuer held the small porcelain bottle tightly in her hand and nodded.
After watching Huang Ye and the other two go out of the window again, she walked over and closed the window.
She turned her gaze back to the Queen Mother lying on the bed.
The Queen Mother still maintained the same posture as when she fainted from fright just now.
Although there was a charcoal fire in the room, the window had just been opened and the room was no longer warm.
Jiuer couldn't bear it after all, so she pulled up the quilt on the bed and covered the empress dowager with it.
"It's good that the Queen Mother fainted. If she fainted, she wouldn't feel itchy anymore."
She said to herself.
But it didn't take long before the Queen Mother woke up due to the itch again.
She looked around in horror on the bed, fearing that the ghost of Concubine Ye would come out again to complain to her.
As expected, she saw Jiuer lying on the ground unconscious.
"Jiu'er, Jiu'er..."
The Queen Mother got down from the bed trembling.
She didn't care about the itchiness on her body and pushed Jiuer who was lying on the ground with her hand.
Seeing that Jiuer showed no signs of waking up, the Queen Mother became even more frightened.
"Jiu'er, hurry up and serve me."
The Queen Mother continued to push the person on the ground while giving orders.
Unfortunately, no matter how she pushed, the person on the ground remained motionless and unresponsive.
"Someone, come quickly..."
She shouted at the top of her lungs.
But no matter how loudly she shouted, no one came in.
The Queen Mother was really scared now. She suspected that Jiuer lying on the ground was dead.
She didn't dare stay in the same room with a dead person.
But she didn't dare to open the door. What if the ghost of Concubine Ye came in again?
The Queen Mother spent the fifth night of the New Year in this torment.
On the morning of the sixth day, Xiao Yinzi came with the palace maids who were re-arranged by the Ministry of Internal Affairs for the Cining Palace.
Accompanying him was Imperial Physician Song.
Doctor Song was led into the inner hall of the Cining Palace by Xiao Yinzi.
At this time, the Queen Mother had already left not a single piece of good flesh on her body.
