After she became a county magistrate, she took the ghost to investigate the case

Just a few steps after Xu Yingying walked out of the Palace of Tranquil Longevity, she saw Camellia standing at the door.

She was covering her head and walking back and forth anxiously, looking very painful.

"What's wrong?" Xu Yingying hurried forward and asked.

Camellia squatted on the ground holding her head with a look of pain on her face, "My head hurts so much."

Seeing Camellia's state, Xu Yingying quickly told the weeds beside her, "I think her death is closely related to the palace. Take good care of Camellia. I have more important things to do."

Wild Grass nodded and said, "Yes, Master."

At this time, Huangdi appeared in front of Xu Yingying for some unknown reason.

"My dear... who are you talking to?"

The emperor looked at Xu Yingying in surprise, because he found that there was no one around except Xu Yingying.

After hearing this, Xu Yingying felt something was wrong. She couldn't say that she could see ghosts, right?

So she made up an excuse and said, "Your Majesty, I was just admiring the majesty of the Forbidden City. This is my first time entering the Forbidden City, and I am very curious about everything here."

When the emperor heard this, he nodded and said, "Okay." The curiosity in his heart disappeared completely.

"I wonder what the emperor wants to tell you?" Xu Yingying said respectfully to the emperor.

"I think it's been a long time since I last visited the Queen's residence. I plan to go with you." Huangdi said lightly.

"it is good."

In this way, Eunuch Li brought the emperor and Xu Yingying to the queen's original residence - Kunning Palace.

Pushing the door open, Xu Yingying discovered that although no one had lived here for a long time, the entire palace was very clean. She must have thought that it was because the palace maids cleaned it every day.

Xu Yingying looked around Kunning Palace but did not find any useful clues.

It seems that there is only one last resort - to open the coffin and perform an autopsy.

But will the emperor agree?

Thinking of this, Xu Yingying hesitated again.

The emperor looked at her as if she was about to say something but hesitated, and waved his hand and said, "My dear, just say whatever you want to say!"

With these words, Xu Yingying felt much more relieved.

"Your Majesty, I have not found any useful clues in the Queen's residence. I would like to open the coffin and examine the Queen's body. I wonder if Your Majesty would agree?"

After hearing this, the emperor was stunned.

Finally, as if he remembered something, he gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, but the Queen's mausoleum can't be opened just like that. The procedures are very complicated and we have to wait for a while."

"I understand, and I am willing to wait for the opening of the imperial mausoleum." Xu Yingying said.

"Okay, then I will ask Su Shengyuan to escort you out of the palace first, and I will summon you back into the palace after the Queen's mausoleum is opened."

The emperor looked at Su Shengyuan and said, "Please see Lord Xu off for me!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty. I'll take my leave." Xu Yingying bowed deeply to the emperor, then followed Su Shengyuan out of the palace.

Su Shengyuan was going to send a carriage to take Xu Yingying to the inn, but was rejected by Xu Yingying because she didn't know where Li Siqi was at the moment, so she planned to find an inn to stay in for the time being.

After Xu Yingying took a few steps, a plaque called "Friendly Inn" came into her sight.

Xu Yingying thought the decoration looked good, so she walked in.

"Come in, sir, please come in. Do you want to have a meal or stay overnight?" The waiter came up to her enthusiastically when he saw Xu Yingying.

At this moment, Xu Yingying's stomach made an inopportune noise.

"Gululu~"

Xu Yingying suddenly wished she could find a crack in the ground to crawl into.

The waiter obviously heard it, "Sir, how about we have a bowl of rice first?"

Xu Yingying nodded and said, "Okay, then I'll have a bowl of noodles! Please recommend something to me."

The waiter was so happy when he heard Xu Yingying's words, "Sir, let me recommend our signature noodles to you. How about spicy chicken noodles?"

"Okay." Xu Yingying nodded.

After a while, a bowl of delicious noodles was served.

Xu Yingying looked at the noodles and gave a wry smile. It looked good, but there was not enough noodles. It seemed like it was gone after a few bites.

Forget it, just make do with it.

Xu Yingying was really hungry, so she picked up the chopsticks and started to wolf down the food without paying any attention to her image.

After a while, the bowl of noodles was finished.

Xu Yingying touched her belly with satisfaction and said, "Waiter, come and pay."

"You are so tired, sir. This bowl of noodles costs fifty cents." The waiter said to Xu Yingying with a bright smile.

Xu Yingying was so shocked that her jaw dropped. She blurted out, "What? You charge me fifty cents for a bowl of chicken noodles? Why don't you just go and rob me?"

Fifty cents is equivalent to fifty yuan today. She may not be able to earn that much in a day. Now you tell her that a bowl of noodles costs fifty cents?

The black-hearted merchants are so black that there is not a bit of white left in their livers.

The waiter was immediately displeased when he heard what Xu Yingying said, "Sir, what do you mean? You can't afford this money, right?"

As soon as these words were spoken, several shirtless burly men in the corner immediately walked out and surrounded Xu Yingying. Their eyes were extremely unfriendly, as if they would tear Xu Yingying to pieces on the spot if she said she had no money.

When Xu Yingying saw this, she felt something was wrong. As the saying goes, "A wise man never suffers a loss in front of him." She could wait until she saw Su Shengyuan in the future and then complain to him about shutting down this shady shop.

Xu Yingying made a prompt decision and said, "Of course I have it. Don't talk nonsense. I'll give it to you right away."

After Xu Yingying finished speaking, she pretended to take out some silver from her pocket.

But as soon as her hand touched her waist, something went wrong.

Yes, because Li Siqi was responsible for paying the bills all the way, she didn't bring a purse with her at all.

The waiter at the side seemed to have seen through Xu Yingying's thoughts, and pointed at Xu Yingying and shouted, "Boss, there's someone here who doesn't have money and wants to eat a free meal."

As soon as these words came out, a middle-aged man with a big belly stood up.

"Who?"

"Who dares to go wild on my floor?"

He walked up to Xu Yingying, looked her up and down, and then asked viciously, "Is it you?"

"Uh... actually! If I say this is a misunderstanding, would you believe it?" Xu Yingying said with an awkward smile on her face.

"Misunderstand?"

"Someone, come here! Beat him up and then drag him out and throw him on the street."

The boss pointed at Xu Yingying and said to his men.

When the weeds saw that something was wrong, they immediately created a gust of wind, and all the windows and doors of the inn were blown open.

People were blown so hard that they couldn't open their eyes.

"Master, hurry up!"

Xu Yingying understood that the weeds were trying to buy her a chance, so she made a prompt decision and rushed out of the inn at the speed of a 100-meter race.

She didn't know how long she ran until she had no strength left to run anymore. She then slowly sat down, holding onto the wall.

"Hu-hu-"

Xu Yingying was breathing heavily.
